Special Notice. —Amongst our most ardent collabora¬ 
tors we must mention the name of Dr. Paul Paquin. The 
doctor has recently favored us with two fresh communications,

An unusual amount of material received for this publication 
has so far prevented our doing justice to these excellent papers, 
but in presenting him this apology for our delay in printing 
them, we can assure him that we will do justice to him in one 
of our early issues.
