ACKNOWLEDGMENTS TO CORRESPONDENTS.

In juftice to the Compiler of a Select Collection of Epitaphs, we have turned to his Index, where indeed we find the information which ought to have been in the text; but with refpect to Burns's Epitaph, (in p. 105) it belongs fo peculiarly to his own character, that without reference to that, it lofes half its beauty. With refpect to the heavier charges, we are glad to find them denied, and to acquiefce. in the denial; but certainly a very trifling degree of care would have 'made the Collection more truly felett, and in all refpe&s better.
