GEORGE PEABODY. — We have received from Mr. Carl Meinerth, of 
es the finest photograph we have yet seen of Mr. Peabody. 
It is done by the new form of Mezzo-tint, invented by Mr. Meinerth, and 
is a copy of the last portrait taken of Mr. Peabody by Mayall of London 
in 1869. 
CORRECTION. — A slight correction apne to be made in — wie on “ esee ” in 
the Feira rier mber. The “large openings” in the fi poken of 
on page 566, are popi — of ‘spiral a of which there is none in Hn body of 
such wood, but of t m ars nt Pags duets. The shaving figured, moreover, 
must have | been. taken from com stick of oak, not to show the great umu- 
lation of t inn iit each annual zone. The figure shows? them 
only in the second layer and a at ari ie third.
