 of oflScial i)ublic documents of the United States with foreign Gov- 

 ernments, provided for the collecting of accurate and sufficient data 

 to be employed in correcting the "List of Foreign Correspondents of 

 the Smithsonian Institution" in use by the exchange service of that 

 establishment 5 and, as a result of the attention given by the compiler 

 to the instructions received, a new list, corrected and revised to the 1st
