with a most feeling allusion to those members who had crossed 

 to the other shore, and whose faces we would see no more among 

 us forever." 



For New Subscribers. — If you will send us one dollar and

 from some old journal do not subscribe for The Microscope; but 

 if you want to read a journal that contains more original matter

The S. S. and S. Man. — Prof. Smith, in his inaugural ad- 

 dress, told us that there are men who look upon the scientific 

 man as one who must " Snap, Snarl and Sneer." If any of our 

 readers know of any of these men who would like to look upon 

 their ideal scientific man we know of one of the regular three 

 S. kind. He resides in this country, and Mr. Cole, of London, 

 could tell you his business and residence. 



Mr. Walmsley, of Philadelphia, now offers to make photo- 

 micrographs from any specimens you may choose to send him. 

 There is scarcely a microscopist who does not have a few mounts 

 he would like to have photographed in this way. A few prints 

 can be made and sent to friends and thus a specimen of your 

 work shown, or some point in the structure of the tissue illus- 

 trated. Mr. Walmsley will make known his terms, " which will 

 be very reasonable,' 1 upon application. As no better worker 

 can be found in this country we believe many will avail them- 

 selves of this opportunity. Mr. Walmsley has also just brought 

 out an entirely new micro camera, which can be used for copy- 

 ing, enlarging or reducing, and for transparencies as well. 



Dr. Chase says that he has but a very few copies of " Hab-

The Medical Department of this University opens with over 

 three hundred students, with one hundred registered for Histo-

 work and much of real pleasure.
