The New Departure. — Beginning with the issue of this number, the 

 M vtoLOGiCAL Bulletin will be made a Semi-monthly publication. It has 

 l)een sent out lieretofore as an experiment, so to speak^ — at least it was 

 not certain that approximately a thousand persons would care to pay for 

 sucii a periodical. There are not, to be sure, 1,000 names yet on the mail- 

 ing list, but if all who desire such a leaflet as this, knew of its regular 

 issuance, price, and editor's address, it can safely be presumed that there 

 would lie an ample number of subscribers. Alany persons have, to my 

 knowledge, kindly called attention to the Bulletin, and to these as well 

 as other unknown friends, hearty thanks are extended.
