The Editors are glad to be able to announce that the 

 publication of the Irish Naturalist " is to be continued. In 

 reply to Dr. Scharff's circular issued last month, such promises 

 o£ support have been received that the guarantee fund 

 has been considerably strengthened, while the Printers 

 have volunteered to reduce the cost of publication during 

 the coming year. For this generous action, as well as 

 for the encouragement afforded by the guarantors, the 

 Editors wish to express their hearty thanks. They would 

 urge all readers of the Magazine to use their best efforts 

 in increasing the number of subscribers.
