Notes and Queries, Number 01, November 3, 1849 by Various
page 33 of 49 (67%)
Mr. Editor,--The following is an extract from Lord Brougham's _Character
of Chatham_, vol. i. p. 27.

"The Debates on the American Stamp Act in 1764 are the first that
can be said to have been preserved at all, through the happy
accident of Lord Charlemont, assisted by Sir Robert Dean, &c. &c.,
and accordingly _they have handed down to us some Notes of Lord
Chatham's celebrated Speech upon that Question_."

Can any of your readers inform me where these "NOTES" of this
"celebrated speech" are to be found?

D.

DORNE, THE BOOKSELLER.--HENNO RUSTICUS.

Sir,--I gladly avail myself of the "NOTES AND QUERIES," to request
information on the following points:--

I. Is any thing known, and especially from the writings of Erasmus, of a
bookseller and publisher of the Low Countries named Dorne, who lived at
the beginning of the sixteenth century?

II. Is any thing known of a little work of early date, called _Henno
rusticus_?

III. Or of another, called _Of the sige (signe?) of the end_?
