Every contributor is entitled to receive 12 copies of his paper. Several authors of papers have expressed a desire to be furnished with a greater number of copies than 12. The arrangements for reprinting separate copies of papers are always complicated, expensive, and troublesome, but as the Editor is fully conscious of the great convenience of these separate copies to the authors, he has arranged with Messrs. Harrison to supply them on certain conditions, and on the following terms:

1. All copies above 12, not to be circulated until three months after the publication of the journal.

2. The expense to be borne by the authors, according to the following scale :Communications of 16 pages (1 sheet) and upwards, at the rate of 38. per sheet per ten copies, including paper, and so on for each sheet. Example-A paper of 20 pages will cost 38. 9d. per ten copies. 75 copies would be at the rate of 98. 6d. per sheet.

Communications of less than 16 pages and more than 8 at the rate of 3d. a page per ten copies. ExampleA paper of 10 pages will cost about 2s. 6d. per ten copies.

Communications of 8 pages and less at the rate of about 4d. a page per ten copies. Example-A paper of 3 pages will cost 18. per ten copies.

If more than 100 copies are required a very considerable reduction will be made in the above sums.

Plates 1d. each copy, unless more than 50 copies are required. Coloured plates average 3d. each copy.

3. The Editor begs that all copies may be paid for WHEN ORDERED cannot ask Messrs. Harrison to keep small accounts.

ANALYTICAL NOTICES OF BOOKS.

In each alternate number a short analysis of the different Works sent to the Editor is given. The few remarks offered will be purely analytical. Critical notices are inadmissible. If the authors of original papers and essays will transmit to the Editor a brief and simple summary of the results to which they have arrived, with their printed communication, this department of the Journal will be rendered more complete. Pamphlets and short papers, English and Foreign, on subjects connected with medicine and surgery, which are not generally noticed in reviews, will be included in the summary.

All papers for publication to be sent to the Editor, King's College, W.C., or to 61, Grosvenor Street, London, W.

Price 15s. each, Cloth 8vo.

EXTRACTS FROM THE PREFACE TO VOL. II.

FOUR years have now elapsed since the appearance of the first number of the "Archives of Medicine." The Editor desires to offer to all Contributors his most cordial thanks.

This volume contains four coloured plates, part of the expense of which has been most liberally borne by the authors of the papers which they illustrate. It is hoped that the care with which the plates have been executed, will in some measure compensate for the smaller number in the present volume.

The principle of free illustration, and the substitution of drawings for description whenever possible, which distinguishes this Journal, will still be adhered to, and it is hoped that an increased number of subscribers will enable the Editor to conduct the Journal on a still more liberal scale without serious loss.

It should be known that the receipts will be entirely devoted to the Journal, and it will be progressively enlarged as its circulation increases. The only expenses besides printing, paper, and illustrations, are the publisher's commission, and advertising.

The value of a work which contains memoirs on various subjects is much enhanced by being furnished with a good index, and it is believed that an index which grows as the work progresses would greatly add to its usefulness, and much facilitate reference to all that it contains.

The index of the first volume of the "Archives" has been re-arranged with that of the present one, and it is proposed to carry out this plan with the hree next volumes, so that each volume will contain references to those which have preceded it.

Every year the number of writers on scientific subjects in connection with Medicine greatly increases, and it is very important that contributors should arrange their matter very carefully. There can be no doubt that very many valuable researches are passed over solely in consequence of the matter being badly arranged, and the paper not being provided with a summary. If our Continental neighbours were acquainted with the difficulties we encounter when we attempt to master their long papers, they would certainly make a rule of appending summaries of the results.

Contributors to the "Archives" are permitted to have twelve reprints of their papers free of expense, and as many extra copies as they desire at small cost. Electrotypes of the wood engravings may also be had on certain conditions.
