The article provides information about various developments related to publishers and publishing. J.C. Welling's "Notes on the Life and Character of Joseph Henry," read before the Philosophical Society of Washington and printed in the Society's Bulletin, have also been issued separately in a pamphlet of some thirty pages. The occupation of the new capitol at Albany, New York gives a timely interest to the leading paper in the "Magazine of American History" for January, on the formation of the first constitution of New York, by editor, John Austin Stevens. Most curious is B. F. De Costa's account of the so-called Globe of Ulpius now in possession of the New York Historical Society, and which has an important bearing on the Verrazzano controversy.
