EDITOR'S NOTES. 



The present number completes the twelfth volume of tiiis 

 journal, and will be the last. 



I regret that I am no longer able to devote the time 

 necessary to editing and publishing th.e same, and, after very 

 careful consideration, I have decided to cease the publication. 



I thank all those malacologists, in different parts of the 

 world, who have requested me to re-consider this decision, but 

 I think it better to devote the tmie liitlierto spent upon the 

 journal, to my work on the Slugs and Slug-like Molluscs. 



To my co-editors (especially Mr. E. R. Svkesj, contributors, 

 and subscribers, I offer my sincere thanks for tiie continued 

 and hearty support they have given me, and I liust tliat I may 

 still, and for many years to come, retain the honour of their 

 friendship.
