Abstract

“TO provide the numerous German travellers and dwellers in foreign lands with a simple introduction to scientific investigation in the various departments of natural science” was, in their own words, the object of the promoters of the present work, and this notice is an endeavour to point out, in the first place, the mode in which it has been carried out ; and, in the second, to consider how far the effort has been crowned with success.
