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

 in different parts of Asia will commit their observations to writing-, and send them to the 

 Asiatic Society at Calcutta. It will languish if such communications shall be long inter- 

 mitted; and it will die away if thev^t«^he«*«ejy cease."— Sir Wm, Jones.
