Abstract
WITH the first of January the weekly South German geographical paper, Das Auslana, edited by Dr. Sigimund Günther, of Munich, and established as long ago as 1827, comes to an end, having sunk its identity by amalgamating with Globus, which for thirty-two years has been its North German, contemporary and rival. Globus will continue to be published, with numerous illustrations, as heretofore, and with the additional attraction of Roman type being substituted for the old German character. It is somewhat remarkable that weekly papers of this kind, entirely devoted to geography and travel, with no political purpose, should be so thoroughly established in Germany and France, while no successful attempt has ever been made in an English-speaking country to start a similar publication.
