GOETHR: A QUOTATION.-Wh6r6 in Goethe’s works does this expression occur: “I permit no man to be the keeper of my conscience,” or words of like import?

IoNAT1Us LOYOLA AND THUCYDIDES.-In a work called ‘ Book of Human Character/ by Charles Bucke published in 1837, I read this sentence in vol. i. p. 80:- _ “They e., the Spartans] exemplified a maxim in Thucy :des-that nothing is unjust in aprince or a republic that may prove beneficial.” This reads so much like the doctrine attri- buted to the disciples of Ignatius Lo ola that I_should like to know (1) whether tlle Greek historian ever wrote as above ; (2) and, if he did, what are his exact words. M. L. R. BREsLAR. HENRY or VICHENTON.-IS anything known of Henrixé of Wichenton, who was a usticiar of the ing’s Court during the reigns of Richard I., John, and Henry III., and who is connected with Westmoreland history by the purchase of estates in that county durin those reigns?

LATIN AIOTTO.*COl1lCl you or any of your readers favour me in the columns of your paiper with the meaning of the following: ‘ ustrum sine filliatione”?

COMTE DE BRAUMANOIR.-Could any correspondent inform me whether this Breton oiiicer accompanied General Lally in the Indian expedition which ended in the cap- ture of Pondicherry by the British in Janu- ary, 1761, and whether he fell in this expedition, or subsequently took part in the French Revolution?
