TO CORRESPONDENTS. 



We have been most reluctantly compelled to omit, for want of space, thit. 

 month, several highly interesting articles; amongst others, are "Aphorisms on 

 the Frontal Sinuses, and the extent of their interference with Phrenological 

 observation." A valuable Paper '• On the Practicability of Navigating the 

 River Huallaga, with Notes on the productions, &c., of Maynas Peru, by A. 

 Mathev>'s, A. L. S.," (communicated by J. C. Loudon, Esq.) An apology is due 

 to our kind and talented Correspondents, from the same cause, for the omission 

 of the Critical Notices of " Brockodon's Road Book," *' Mrs. Trollope's Tour thro' 

 ^rcrmany," "The Moral of Flowers," " The Natural History and Antiquities 

 of Selburn," " Beckstein's Cage Birds," and other Works, 



The Notice of the Second Exhibition of Modern Paintings and Sculpture, at 

 ihc Athenaeum, Worcester, has obliged us to postpone the insertion of several 

 ileviews of Illustrated Works. In future, we shall devote more space to the 

 " Fine Arts," and have less frequent occasion to regret the insertion of Notices M' 

 V orks of merit. 



In answer to the communications so freijucntly addressed to us, complaining 



tiiat the reply to applications for the Analyst, through the medium of the London 



I'ooksellcrs, is constantly " out of print," we beg to state, that a supply of the 



nack Numbers of the Work may be obtained from the Publishers, Messrs. Simpkin 



' Marshall, I ondon.
