1g Sheppard: Yorkshire's Contribution to Science. 
Vol. I. ends at page 236. Wol. II., with a change of cover, com- 
menced on July rst, 1889, ended with No. 24, dated June 2nd, 
1890, and contained 288 pages. With the completion of the second 
volume the journal ceased to appear on account of insufficient 
financial support. It contains a number of useful papers bearing 
upon natural history matters in the north of England, the work 
of the Yorkshire Naturalists’ Union being frequently referred to. 
THE WESLEY NATURALIST. 
In March, 1887, appeared Part 1 of ‘ The Wesley Naturalist,’ 
an octavo publication of 32 pages (sold at 6d.), and the first 
number contains notes from the Rev. Hilderic Friend and other 
of our contributors. The journal was published by B. Moore, of 
Burnley. Each part contained a lithographic frontispiece, one 
being the famous Carboniferous Tree from Yorkshire, now in the 
Manchester Museum. The Wesley Naturalists’ Society was 
responsible for much of the matter in its pages. Volume I. 
concluded with the number for February, 1888, the last page 
being 383. 
Volume II., March, 1888 to February, 1889, 384 pages, and 
Volume III., March, 1889 to October, 1889* (232 pages) when 
the publication ceased. t 
The editors were Revs. W. H. Dallinger, W. Spiers and 
Hilderic Friend. 
THE NATURAL HISTORY TEACHER. 
‘A monthly illustrated magazine for Young Lovers of Nature, 
conducted by S. L. Mosley, a small 4to publication, was started 
in January, 1885, and Volume I. including the twelve parts for 
the year, contained 84 pages. Volume II. (parts 13-24, 1886) 
contained g2 pages, and we learn from the December issue that 
it had ‘ not circulated largely in the channel set out for it,’ so it 
was decided to alter its character, and in its place appeared— 
THE Economic NATURALIST. 
‘An illustrated monthly journal of useful natural history.’ 
The first part (8 pages 8vo), was issued in January, 1887. I 
cannot ascertain how long it lasted, but I have seen Part 11, for 
November, 1887 (pages 91-98). The parts were sold at 2d. each. 
THE NATURALISTS’ GUIDE. 
A Journal with the above title evidently started somewhere 
about November, 1890, and apparently took the place of “ The 
Economic Naturalist.’ I have only been able to see Parts 39- 
48, January to October, 1894. It was also edited, printed and 
* Nothing was issued for September this year. 
+ I am informed by one of the editors that the Wesley Naturalist was then 
‘amalgamated with the Journal of the Postal Microscopical Society.’
