Much more might be added to this brief resume of Mr. Ernes’ 
professional life, did our space admit. We must not, however, 
omit to speak of the loss veterinary science has sustained by his 
death, and our deep regret that the Veterinarian will no longer 
contain articles of much professional interest and value from his 
pen. 
Month by month, and almost without interruption, for twelve 
years in succession have the readers of our Journal been ac- 
customed to peruse with advantage his “Analysis of Con- 
tinental Journals.” It is not a little singular that we should 
have published his very last translation at the close of the year. 
Little did we imagine, when reading his MS. for press, that we 
were looking upon the last of his professional labours. It is 
coincidences of this kind which bring home with a force and 
truth of their own, the certainty of death, and the uncertainty of 
all else besides. Rightly, indeed, has one of our poets sung in 
sacred song : 
“ The year rolls round, and steals away 
The breath that first it gave ; 
Whate’er we do, where’er we be. 
We’re travelling to the grave.” 
ERRATA. 
In Vol. xliv, No. 517, Jan., 1871, page 29 , for “North Africa” read 
“ North America and South Africa.” 
By an oversight the titles of Mr. Donaldson, who superintended the 
matriculation examination of the students about to enter at the Veterinary 
College of Edinburgh, were omitted from his official letter to Professor 
Williams respecting the result of the examination (see page 39). These 
titles are LL.D. and Rector of the High School of Edinburgh. 
In the obituary of Mr. Daniel Cullimore, as published in our last number, 
for “his diploma bears date May 17, 1828,” read “May 24, 1853.”
