He is also particularly referred to the
_Celestial Cycle_, by Capt. Smyth, published by Parker and Co., West
Strand, in 2 vols. 8vo., price 2l. 2s.; a book full of astronomical and
mythological gossip.
G.I.C. will find books on _Astrology_ for sale at Maynard's, No. 8. Earl's
Court, Cranbourn Street, Leicester Square, more readily, perhaps, than any
where else in London.
ROBERT SNOW.
6. Chesterfield Street, Mayfair, Jan. 13. 1851.
_Dodo Queries_ (Vol. i., pp. 261, 262.).--MR. STRICKLAND is informed, that
in the list of Pingre's works, as given in Querard's _France Litteraire,_
there is one with the following title:--
"Memoire sur les Decouvertes faites dans la Mer du Sud, avant les
derniers Voyages des Francais autour du Monde, lu a l'Academie des
Sciences, 1766, 1767, 1778, in. 4."
I have not read Pingre's works, but if they contain any mention of
_Solitaires_, it will probably be found in the _Memoire_ above referred to.
HENRY H. BREEN.
St. Lucia, W.I., Nov. 1850.
_Holland Land_ (Vol. ii., pp. 267. 345.; Vol. iii., p. 30).--In an ancient
charter, in my possession, bearing date 19 Edw.
