THE GOSPELS IN ITALY.

[To TEE EDITOR Or THE " SPECTATOR." J SIR,—In your last issue, in a criticism of Madame Serao's "In the Country of Jesus," your reviewer says : "Possibly the New Testament is not easily accessible in Italy." An Italian translation of the Gospels at least is very accessible, for one is printed at the Vatican Press, and published by the Society of St. Jerome, price fourpence.—I am, Sir, &c., The Presbytery, Shepherd's Bush.
