" It will flourish, if naturalists, ehemists, antiquaries, philologers, and men of 

 scienee, in different parts of Asia, will commit their observations to writing, and send 

 them to the Asitic Society at Calcutta ; it will languish, if such communications shall 

 be long intermitted ; and will die away^Jf they shall entirely cease."
