CATALOGUES. 



The Committee of the Q. M. C. with pleasure announce that they have pre- 

 pared and printed Catalogues of the Books in the Librarj*, and the Microscopical 

 Preparations in the Cabinet. The latter exceeding in bulk one of the numbers 

 of this Journal, it has been resolved that a price shall be charged for copies 

 which shall reduce the cost to the Club. It is believed that Members will prefer 

 this, rather than that the whole amount should be paid out of the Funds of the 

 Club. Announce -rent of price will be made at the next General Meeting, 

 when copies may be obtained, or by enclosing the amount in postage stamps to 

 the Secretary, 32, Belgrave Boad, S.W.
