BE IT REMEMBERED, that on the twenty-ninth day of April, in the thirty-ninth year of the independence of the United States of America, A. D. 1815, Thomas Dugdale, Junior, of the said district, hath deposited in this office the title of a book, the right whereof he claims as proprietor, in the words following, to wit: "Quinti Horatii Flacci Opera Expurgata, Notis Anglicis illustrata: In conformity to the act of the Congress of the United States, intituled, "An act for the encouragement of learning, by securing the copies of maps, charts, and books, to the authors and proprietors of such copies, during the times therein mentioned." And also to the act, entitled "An act supplementary to an act, entitled 'An act for the encouragement of learning, by securing the copies of maps, charts, and books, to the authors and proprietors of such copies during the times therein mentioned,' and extending the benefits thereof to the arts of designing, engraving, and etching historical and other prints." D. CALDWELL, 1 b In CO In preparing the text for publication, recourse has been had to the most accurate European editions, by the help of which, it is hoped, most of the errors have been corrected, and the punctuation greatly improved. In compiling the explanatory notes, the editor has consulted every commentator that lay within his reach, and selected, translated and formed them upon those authorities which appeared most deserving of confidence.
