Abstract
IN this fasciculus the learned Director of the Royal Zoological and Ethnographical Museum of Dresden concludes his interesting account of the museums and libraries of the United States visited during his recent tour. Here we may avail ourselves of the opportunity of correcting a misrepresentation of the author's opinions which unfortunately occurs in our notice of the first portion of his work. Instead of stating that Americans are ahead of us in the matter of museum fittings, Dr. Meyer awards the preeminence in this respect to European institutions, although he is fain to confess that as regards libraries and library installations we are not abreast of America.
