Mr. Leadbeater, No. 19. Brewer Street, Golden Square, is employed by 

 the Society for stuffing their birds, and will prepare any of the above for 

 them, if sent to him. At the same time, notice of any bird presented should 

 be addressed to the secretary of the Society at Cambridge. — J. S. H. Oct,

Exchanges of Specimens. — There are a catalogue of the Botanical Mu- 

 seum and Library, another of the collection of British- birds purchased by 

 the Cambridge Philosophical Society, and lists of the plants collected during 

 the herborisations of Professor Henslow and his pupils. These catalogues 

 and lists will be useful to other societies and collectors, in the way of lead- 

 ing to exchanges of duplicates. — Cond,

I had, this summer, the pleasure of gathering, on Royden Fen, near Diss, 

 Norfolk, besides other plants, Malaxis Lceselw, .Epipactis palustris, and 

 Cladium ikfariscus. Epilobium angustifolium, , mentioned above, I dis-
