L. Harrison, Printer, 373, Strand.

In concluding this volume, the Proprietor of the REPOSITORY, grateful for the flattering reception which the New Series has experienced from the public, informs his subscribers, that it is his intention, in the succeeding numbers, to make such farther alteration in his arrangements, as shall render the Miscellany more acceptable to the general reader. Among other new articles, he is enabled to announce a series of papers of a popular nature, illustrated with engravings by ROWLANDSON, whose comic talents are well known to every lover of genuine humour.

Publishers, Authors, Artists, and Musical Composers, are requested to transmit announcements of works which they may have in hand, and we shall cheerfully insert them, as we have hitherto done, free of expense. New musical publications also, if a copy be addressed to the publisher, shall be duly noticed in our Review; and extracts from new books, of a moderate length and of an interesting nature, suitable for our Selections, will be acceptable.

Miss Robinson has pointed out an instance of imposition, to which we, in common with all the conductors of works which accept communications, are unfortunately liable. "I shall feel obliged,” says this lady, "if you will correct an extraordinary error which has taken place in your number for October, 1816, a poem of my late mother's having been most ingeniously transcribed under the signature of SOMERSET, entitled Reflections. If you will refer to Mrs. Robinson's Poetical Works, vol. I. p. 376, you will find from whence this most glaring robbery proceeds. I have no doubt but this fraud will be properly detected by your vigilance, and prove a sufficient caution to your poetical transcriber on any future attempt of substituting published poetry for original matter." We assure Miss Robinson, that we have by far too much gallantry, either ourselves to rob or to connive at the robbery of a fair lady, and that we shall not fail to exercise our vigilance for preventing the recurrence of such depredations.

We are under the necessity of apologizing to some of our poetical correspondents, and Oscar in particular, for being obliged to defer their contributions till our next number.

When, however, such means are in possession, it is very proper to give him at the entrance of the park so recommendatory a foresighted to pass short spaces of time durof its qualities; for the entrance of a property effecting the earliest impression on the mind of a visitant, it is of some importance that it should be of the favourable kind; because in this as in other instances of first impressions, it is not easily eradicated, and probably the mind will be more strongly operated on should it have the appearance of repulsiveness or other objectionable features. This idea was some years ago oddly pursued by an old Vol. II. No. XII.

"It is very easy," said he, "to say which belongs to the proud and lofty, and which to the vain and conceited; which to the liberal, the prodigal, the penurious, the courteous, the frivolous, the reserved, or the nervous: and it matters not that they may have been made by the predecessors of the present occupiers; had
