Excerpt from The Journal of Microscopy and Natural Science, 1884, Vol. 3: The Journal of the Postal Microscopical Society Work of an exclusively original nature scarcely comes within our scope, and is perhaps better fitted to find publicity in the records of our learned societies; and from the majority Of our members such work is perhaps scarcely to be expected. We find, accordingly, that a considerable proportion Of the Notes in our N ote-books are evidently intended by the writers for the informa tion of their fellow workers, who may not, perhaps, have the time or opportunity to look up works of reference for themselves. Far be it from me to deprecate a practice from which I have myself so frequently derived pleasure and instruction, or to do Otherwise than recognise, that by this means the Objects of the Society are largely fulfilled. Still, I think that where adequate study has been made of the subject, there will always occur, as indeed there frequently do occur, observations of an original nature not necessarily Of scientific value, but such as must greatly increase the interest with which the communications are likely to be read, something beyond what we may expect to find even in the best books of reference; such observations, I may add, make the subject in some sense the author's own. While gladly recognising the extent to which these attributes are found in the work Of many of our members, and the excellence of the illustrations with which they are frequently adorned, I take this opportunity of indicating one direction in which I venture to think improvement is still possible. I have drawn up and annexed a classified list of the various subjects treated of in the N ote-books, and shall content myself here with mentioning a few which seem specially worthy of notice.
