We have alreadv liacl occasion to communicate to 
all those who are interested in the appearance of Yol. 
VII of the Revista do Museu Paulista, that the said 
volume eau uot be distributed so early as we should 
have wished. The two reasons therefore we hinted at 
elsewhere are still existing: the staíf beiug composed of 
only two scientific men, as also the temporary absence 
of oue of them, our chief, and Director in ordinary Dr. 
Hermann von Ihering, who left São Paulo this year 
in the month of April in order to visit the principal 
Museums of the old continent, and is representing us 
at the same time in the several congresses that will 
there be hei d in different cities. 
Notwithstanding, the composition of the 'above 
volume is going a-head and we can give in the follo- 
wing the list ot the principal articles whicli will be 
published :
