written on one side only. Such piece of paper should he about seven 
inches wide, and the notes on each species should be dated and signed 
by the writer. Specimens sent not in accordance with Eules 2 and 3 
will be destroyed. 
4. Each parcel should be accompanied by a list of the plants the 
member wishes to receive from the Club. This list is to be made by 
drawing a short line before their names in the 7th edition of the 
“ London Catalogue.”’*' Species especially wished for should have a ! 
before the horizontal line. The name of the member and address to 
which the return parcel is to be sent, and any special directions as 
to how the parcel is to be sent, should be written on the outside of 
the Catalogue. When the same copy of the Catalogue is used at 
second time the species which are no longer wanted, but which were 
marked the first time, should have a perpendicular line drawn through 
he horizontal line. Manuscript lists of desiderata will not be 
received. 
5. Parcels may be sent {carriage paid) to any of the following 
gentlemen not later than the 31st of December: — Dr. Boswelli 
Balmuto, Kirkcaldy, Fife ; Mr. T. E. A. Briggs, 4, Portland Villas, 
Plymouth ; Mr. J. G. Baker, Kew Herbarium ; and Mr. Charles 
Bailey, care of Ealli Brothers, Peter Street, Manchester. Those that 
arrive after that date will not be available for the distribution for the 
current year. Members sending more valuable parcel^ will have their 
return parcels selected before those who send inferior ones. 
6. Members who do not send parcels, but who have been members 
of the Botanical Exchange Club previous to 1872, and paid their 
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.
