"THAT " AND " WHICH " (12 S. vii. 351, -416). It has occurred to me that even an Englishman might find, on the instant, a ^difficulty of emphasis in such a sentence as the following: He said "that that that -that that speaker used should have been -which." LEES KNOWLES.

CANALETTO (12 S. vii. 409). There is no record of either Antonio Canai ( " Cana- ietto "), or his nephew, Bernardo Bellotto {who also called himself " Canaletto "), Ihaving visited Spain. Antonio Canal spent ,a few years in Rome and about eight years in England, but, apart from these journeys lie was never out of Venice, except to visit such places as Padua, Verona, and Milan.

Bellotto was also in Rome, Verona, Brescia, Milan and other places in Italy. About -the year 1745 he left Venice for good, ^and from this time his career can be traced, ^year by year, in Saxony, Austria, Russia, and Poland, until his death at Warsaw in 1780.

Some of Antonio Canal's early Venetian -views, of small size, are painted on copper plates. (Mrs.) HILDA F. FINBERG.
