  on 
  the 
  following 
  points 
  : 
  — 
  1. 
  Is 
  such 
  an 
  index 
  needed, 
  

   and 
  is 
  it 
  likely 
  to 
  receive 
  a 
  sufficient 
  amount 
  of 
  support 
  to 
  warrant 
  its 
  

   publication 
  '? 
  2. 
  Is 
  the 
  division 
  of 
  the 
  index 
  into 
  subjects 
  advisable?

  — 
  Since 
  my 
  former 
  request 
  for 
  information 
  

   on 
  this 
  subject 
  a 
  considerable 
  amount 
  of 
  interesting 
  matter 
  has 
  been 
  

   acquired, 
  but 
  before 
  the 
  work, 
  which 
  is 
  now 
  nearly 
  ready, 
  is 
  placed 
  in 
  

   the 
  publisher's 
  hands, 
  I 
  should 
  be 
  glad 
  to 
  receive 
  any 
  further 
  notes, 
  

   which 
  will 
  be 
  duly 
  acknowledged. 
  Information 
  is 
  particularly 
  desired
