subscription for the current year before December 31st, will share in 
the annual distribution ; but the specimens for such non-contributing 
members will not be selected until the parcels of all the contributing 
members have been made up, and they cannot be selected according to 
lists of desiderata ; but general instructions, such as the desire to 
receive plants of particular districts, natural orders, or genera, will be 
attended to by the distributor. In future no new members will be 
received by the Botanical Exchange Club, except those who contribute 
specimens of plants.
