JOVTiNAL. NATlTxAL HIST. SOCIETY OF STAM. Vol J. 



upon Natural History relating to Siani. It is, we Itelieve, Nvith tlie 

 possible exception of short articles that may have appeared in scientific 

 journals, a complete list of all the literature which has so far appeared 

 in the English language. 



We would conchide by repeating once more our sincere request 

 that every member will endeavour to contribute something towards 

 the welfare of the Society and its Journal. We are still in our in- 

 fancy and upon our trial. It will depend very largely upon -the results 

 of the next year or two whether the Society is to retain its i)lace or not 

 as one of the useful and permanent institutions of this country.
