 Notices of New Books. 413 which occurs in Demosth. c. Mid. p. 521 : in p. 468, 1. 17, he similarly quotes without naming his author Demosth. Olynth. III. p. 35, neither of which quotations are verified by Spengel. An amusing illustration may hero be adduced of the necessity of always indicating the origin of quo- tations made by grammatical and rhetorical writers. Among the frag- ments of Greek Orations whose authors are unknown, Sauppe has the following in his Oratores Attici, p. 346, cited in one of the above-men- tioned treatises, edited by Seguier de St Brisson, "os yap ipov (piKtmriapov, < yrj kcu Oeol, KaTijyope?, Anonymus Seguerii, p. 49." Upon which place Sauppe observes, " Verba videntur Demosthenis esse." The words, as most readers of Demosthenes will probably remember, occur in his Oration on the Crown, p. 323, and in this instance, it is true, Spengel, prcef. p. xxx. 1.1, has not neglected to point out where they are to be found. We should have been glad to see the fragments even of lost works referred to their places in Sauppe's collection, which (it is only fair to add) is on the whole, in spite of a few errors and omissions, most diligently and accu- rately executed. It only remains for us to hope that Spengel may at the close of the last volume atone for this defect by a thoroughly good Index Auctorum a Rhetoribus laudatorum. In all other respects his book seems to us to deserve great praise. The second volume contains five treatises of Hermogenes, (the text of which is improved by a more careful collation of a Munich MS), as well as single treatises of Aphthonius, Theon, and Aristides. In most of these the diligence of Finckh has found ample scope for exercising itself, and Spengel has not failed to profit thereby.] Cii. B. Contents of Foreign Journals. Baur u. Zeller's theolog.
