[No. 38, 



To J. J. Losh, Esq., Secretary to the Madras Literary Society. 



Sir,— We have been requested by Captain R. R. W. Ellis, of the 

 Bengal Army to obtain a copy of Taylor's Analysis of the Mackenzie 

 Manuscripts. We believe the Analysis has been published in your So- 

 ciety's Journal, but are not aware if it has appeared separately. 



Should it have done so we shall be obliged if you will send us a copy 

 accompanied by a Memorandum of its price. It may be sent through 

 the Post Office for transmission by the first Ship, or per Steamer through 

 the Agent of the P. and O. S. N. Company.
