292—to John Murray

May 22nd, 1813.

Dear Sir,—I the "Curiosities of Literature." 1 Pray is it fair to ask if the " Twopenny Postbag " is to be reviewed in this No.? because, if not, I should be glad to undertake it, and leave it to Chance and the Editor for a reception into your pages.

Yours truly, B.

P. S.— You have not sent me Eustace's Travels 2 .
