(Ep. ad Amm. i. 4) makes the second the first, and the third the second in the series ; and this order has been defended by R. Rauchenstein, de Orat. Olyntli. ordine, Leipz. 1821, which is reprinted in. vol. i. of Schaefer's Apparatus. The other order is defended by Becker, in his German translation of the Philippics, i. p. 103, &c., and by Westermann, St'iive, Ziemann, Petrenz, and Bruckner, in separate dissertations. There is a good edition of the Olynthiac orations, with notes, by C. H. Frotscher and C. H. Funkhanel, Leipzig, 1834, 8vo.
5. The oration on the Peace, delivered in b. c. 346. Respecting the question as to whether this oration was actually delivered or not, see Becker, Philippische Reden, i. p. 222, &c., and Vomel,' Prolegom. ad Orat. de Pace, p. 240, &c.

7. On Halonesus, b. c. 343, was suspected by the ancients themselves, and ascribed to Hegesippus. (Liban. Argum. p. 75 ; Harpocrat. and Etym. M. s. v. ; Phot. Bibl. p. 491.) Weiske endeavoured to vindicate the oration for Demosthenes in Dis-sertatio super Orat. de Halon.^ Lubben. 1808, but he is opposed by Becker in Seebode^s Archiv. for 1825, i. p. 84, &c., Philippische Reden, ii. p. 301, &c., and by Vomel in Ostenditztr ttegesippi esse ora-tionem de Haloneso, Frankf. 1830, who published a separate edition of this oration under the name of Hegesippus in 1833.

17. Tlepl Sre^awi', or on the Crown, was delivered in b. c. 330. There are numerous separate editions of this famous oration j the best are by I.
Bekker with scholia, Halle, 1815, and Berlin, 1825. by Bremi (Gotha, 1834), and by Dissen (Gbt-tingen, 1837). Comp. F. Winiewski, Comment. Historica et Chronolog. in Demosth. Orat. de Coron., Monasterii, 1829. The genuineness of the documents quoted in this oration has of late been the subject of much discussion, and the most important among the treatises on this question are those of Droysen ( Ueber die Aechtheit der Urkund. in Demosth. Rede vom Kranz, in the Zeitschrift fur die Altei'thumsw. for 1839, and reprinted separately at Berlin, 1839), and F. W. Newman (Classical Museum, vol. i. pp. 141-—169), both of whom deny the genuineness, while Vbmel in a series of programs (commenced in 1841) endeavours to prove their authenticity. Comp. A. F.

24 and 25. The two orations against Aristo-geiton belong to the time after b. c. 338. The genuineness of these two orations, especially of the first, was strongly doubted by the ancients themselves (Dionys. de Admir. vi die. Dem. 57 ; Har-pocrat. s. vv. ©ewpis and vea\^s ; Pollux, x. 155), though some believed them to be the productions of Demosthenes. (Liban. Argum. p. 769 ; Phot, Bibl. p. 491.)
