NOTICE TO SUBSCRIBERS. 
GENTLEMEN, 
We are reluctantly obliged to notify that owing to 
the very large number of unpaid subscriptions it will be 
necessary to cease the further issue of THe New ZEALAND 
JOURNAL OF SCIENCE after the end of this year. The difticulty 
of getting in small subscriptions from all parts of the colony 
is very considerable, and unless those who take out the Journal 
will respond to the requests made to them and forward the 
amounts due by them, arrears quickly mount up. Seeing 
that the Journal has now been in existence for four years, 
and has fairly well fulfilled its expectations, we think it a 
pity that its publication should now be stopped, but the 
matter is entirely in the hands of our subscribers, who 
have how the opportunity of signifying whether or not they 
desire to see this—the only non-official scientific publication 
of the colony—come to an end or not. 
; We are, Gentlemen, 
Your obedt. Servants, 
WISE, CAFFIN & CO.
