ManMADUKE TuNsSTALL, of Wycliffe in the North Hiding of the county of York, is said to have been born in 1743, and to have died October 11th, 17930. As a memoir of him was given by Fox in that mine of curious information on Natural History, the * Synopsis of the Newcastle Museum', published in 1827, it is only needful here to mention a few facts referring to this work, which seem to have been unknown to that writer.
In the 'Gentleman's Magazine' for January, 1824 (vol xorv. pt. i. pp. 14, 15) are printed three letters from LixNvs to TuxsTALL.* The first of them, dated (as is stated) ** Upsali»e, 1772, Aug. 13 '", contains this passage :—
* Dum in eo sum, ut adornem novam editionem tomi 1"! Systematis, quem typographus efHagitat a me, magnopere exoptarem allegare Ornithologiam tuam, quam dicis te liberali manu ad me misisse ; sed meo magno cum dolore nondum excepi: quzso, dicas mihi per quem exoptatissimum opus misisti."
In the second, written on October 13th, 1773, he acknowledges the arrival that day of the book—-*:* Ornithologiam tuam Britannicam "— with certain specimens sent him by TuxsTALL.
In the third letter, bearing date **Upsalie, 1773, 21 Nov.", LiNN:US writes:c*' Catalogus tuus de Avibus JDritannicis certe perplacuit."
TuxsTALL was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society on the 11th of April of the year in which he brought out his work.[ His certificate, in the handwriting of his proposer, DarwEgs BannRrNGTON, describes him *of Welbeck Street in the parish of Marybone," and sets forth
* "These letters have been reprinted in the ' Mémoires de la Société Linnéenne de Calvados" (1824, pp. 296-300). Y Not in 1777, as stated by Fox (op. cit. p. 14).
liv Preface.
his qualification as **a gentleman of most general erudition and more partieularly versed in every branch of Natural History." His seconder was PENNANT, and the names of five other Fellows of the Society, less known to ornithological fame, follow.
The reader may be reminded that TuwsrALL's Museum, including his collection of Birds, which was said to have cost him several thousands of pounds,* formed the basis of the flourishing Museum of Newcastle-on-Tyne ; and, according to Fox's investigations, twelve of the figures of birds in Bnoww's ' Illustrations of Zoology ' and fifty of BEwick's well-known engravings were drawn from specimens con- tained in it—many of which, owing to the care taken of them, still exist.
The present reissue of TuxNsTALL's work has been executed by means of photolithography. For greater convenience it has been reduced in size from the original folio which measures twenty inches by fourteen and a half.

BEER CWILEUGHBY SOCIETY.
AT a. Meeting of Ornithologists, at 6, Tenterden-street, Hanover-square, on May 7, 1879, Professor NEwTOx in the Chair, it was agreed * That an Association should be formed for reprinting certain Ornithological Works interesting for their utility or rarity."
The late and present Eprrons of **The Ibis" and Mr. TEGETMEIER were requested to form an Organising Committee to promote this object, and Mr. F. Gopwax to act as Secretary.
The Committee thus appointed met at 11, Hanover-square, on June 4, 1879, when it was agreed :—
I. * That this Association be called *'TH& WrnLvaHBAY SocrETY for
the Reprinting of scarce Ornithological Works.'
IL **That the Annual Subscription be £l, payable to the Secretary."
IIT. *'That no Copies of Works reprinted by TuEg WinLvGHBY SocrETY be sold."
IV. * That every Member of THE WinLvaHBY SocrETYy shall be entitled to one Copy of each Work printed in the year for which he shall subscribe."
In order to carry out effectually the object of this Society, it is necessary that the number of Members should be as large as possible : those, therefore, who wish to join it are requested to communicate with the Secretary, Mr. F. D. GopMaw, 10, Chandos-street, Cavendish- square, W.C.
