A CORRECTION.

[To THE EDITOR OF THE "SPECTATOR.'] Sin,—I did not write that "voluntary subscriptions and schools are dead already," &c., in my letter of last week ; but" voluntary subscriptions TO schools." A certain rather indeterminate hiero- glyphic, to the use of which I plead guilty, is obviously answerable for the error ; but it may, if uncorrected, expose me to criticism for exaggeration.—I am, Sir, &c., J. OAKLEY.
