Abstract

IN reply to his letter in our columns on the 7th inst, (p. 341), Mr. Sclater has received applications from several unexceptionable candidates for the post of Naturalist to the Pilcomayo Expedition. Out of these, Captain Page has agreed to select Mr. Graham Kerr, of the University of Edinburgh, to accompany him. Mr. Kerr is most highly recommended by Prof. Balfour, Prof. Geikie, and Prof. Ewart as in every way suited for the work. He will leave England for Buenos Ayres about the beginning of June.
