If any of your readers can refer me to the above works I shall be glad.
They may be in the British Museum, although I have searched there in
vain for them.

_Water-marks in Writing-paper._--Can any of your correspondents indicate
any guide to the dating of {311} paper by the water-mark. I think I have
read of some work on that subject, but have no precise recollection
about it. I have now before me several undated MSS. written on paper of
which it would be very desirable to fix the exact date. They evidently
belonged to Pope, Swift, and Lady M.W. Montague, as they contain their
autographs. They are all of that size called _Pro Patria_, and two of
them have as water-mark a figure of Britannia with a lion brandishing a
sword within a paling, and the motto _Pro Patria_ over the sword.
