M. C. Darveau, and edited by our respected correspondent, M. I'Abbe Pro- 

 vancber, of Portneuf. Tbe subscription price is $2 per annum, payable in 

 advance. We heartily wisb success to this first attempt to popularize natural 

 history among the French speaking inhabitants of Lower Canada. 



The American Naturalist. Salem, Mass. Vol. II, No. 11, Jan. 1859. 

 We always look forward eagerly to the arrival of each number of this most 

 interesting magazine. If any one with any taste for natural history wishes to 

 spend a pleasant hour by the cozy 'fireside in winter, or enjoy the cool shade 

 of a wide-spreading tree in summer, or indeed occupy his leisure time profit- 

 ably and agreeably all the year round, we commend him to this periodical. 

 Every number contains something about Entomology; this time there is a 

 capital '^ Chapter on Flies," by Dr. Packard, illustrated with a full-page plate 

 and several wood cuts. A new volume begins with the March number, when 

 the editors find themselves compelled to increase the subscription price. It 

 has always been a marvel to us how they provided such illustrations and such 

 paper, to say nothing of the reading matter, at so low a rate. Up to March 

 1, the terms for Vol. III. will be $3 50 (U. S. currency), after that date $4. 

 We will furnish it to our subscribers, post paid, for $3 (Canadian currency) 

 per annum ; or the Canadian Entomologist and American Naturalist for 

 $3 25 per annum to new subscribers.
