George Engelmann Papers 
I. 
A MONTHLY PAPER OF BOTANICAL NOTES. 
Announcement for Vol. III. 
'J 'HIS paper will continue for the ensuing year under the editorial 
<^3 management of John M. Coulter and M. S. Coulter. Encour¬ 
aged by the success of the past years, we are desirous of makiog the 
Gazette a necessity to Botanists. 
In Vol. Ill, the leading articles, when needful, will be illustrated, in 
the hope that a greater interest and attractiveness may be added to our 
pages. Its object, as heretofore, will be to afford a rapid and convenient 
means of communication among Botanists. Thanking the Botanists of the 
country for their uniformly kind expressions in regard to the Gazette, as 
well as for the material which they have furnished us, we respectfully ask 
them to aid us again in our enterprise—both by notes and subscriptions. 
Among those who have promised to contribute to the Gazette during 
1878, are Prof. Thomas C. Porter, of LaFayette College; Prof. D. C. 
Eaton, of Yale College; Prof. Edward Tuckerman, of Amherst College; 
Dr. J. T. Rothrock, of University of Pennsylvania; Prof. A. N. Prentiss, 
of Cornell University; Prof C. E. Bessev, of Iowa Agricultural College; 
Dr. Geo. Vasey, Department of Agriculture, Washington, D. C.; Dr. A. 
W. Chapman, Prof. Leo Lesquereux, Cole F. Austin, Rev. S. Lockwood, 
Hon. Geo. W. Clinton, Henry Willey, M. S. Bebb, Geo. E. Davenport, 
I. C. Martindale, Rev. Francis Wolle, Dr. A. P. Garber, Josiali Hoopes, 
J. G. Lemmon, Dr. H. C. Beardslee, Elihu Hall, Howard Sliriver, T. S. 
Brandegee, Mrs. R. M. Austin, Mrs. Mary E. Pulsifer Ames. 
The list, containing a large number of prominent western Botanists, 
gives promise of much new material from that region of country. / 
It has been thought best to begin Volume III with the year, as our 
subscriptions are nearly all arranged in that way, thus breaking into two 
volumes. Ho. 1 of Vol. Ill will appear about the middle of December. 
TERMS.—Subscription, $1.00 per annum. Single numbers, 10 cents. 
Please forward subscriptions immediately, that our books may be 
made up without delay. The paper will be invariably stopped when the 
subscription has run out. Ail subscriptions, unless otherwise ordered, 
will be considered as beginning with the current volume.
