498 RECORD OF SCIENCE FOR 1887 AND 1888. 



There is as yet no catalogue or list of anthropological societies avail- 

 able. The greatest journals, such as Archiv, Correspondeuz-Blatt, 

 Kevue d'Anthropologie, and Archivio, furnish each resumes of meetings 

 held and of work done, which might be easily combined into a general 

 directory. It is understood that Mr. Heury Phillips, of Philadelphia, 

 will undertake a work of this kind for our own country. 



The journals and kindred publications of societies, periodicals pub- 

 lished for subscription, and Comptes-rendus of societies, fall into the 

 same general scheme, and may be considered together. There is a 

 growing desire for information about what the world is doing in this 

 most interesting of all sciences. In spite of all that has been said or 

 may be said, there will always be most excellent treatises printed in out- 

 of the-way places. Friendshii), and the good prices paid by popular 

 magazines, will allure good material away from its legitimate home. 

 Nevertheless, with our present system of bibliographical appendices, a 

 few publications can be mentioned that unitedly include about all that 

 is worthy of notice.

In our own country there are but two cities where the whole ground 

 of anthropology is sought to be covered, Cambridge and Washington. 

 In the former city the Peabody Museum, re-enforced by the library of 

 Harvard University and the lectures delivered under its auspices, occu- 

 pies all the fields of research. In Washington the Congressional Li- 

 brary^ the Smithsonian Institution, the National Museum^ the Army
