"Dear Sir, 



" During the vacation your letter of August 80th has 

 been received at the Royal Society, advising that Mr. Shirley 

 has prepared a Catalogue of Scientific Literature published in 

 Queensland, and enclosing a copy of the publication. 



" It is a most admirable piece of work, and the Colony 

 is to be congratulated on possessing such a man. 



" If you will send 100 of the 200 copies which you say 

 are available to the Royal Society, I shall be obliged. It 

 will be of great value in showing what may and should be 

 done."
