Notes.

The article presents information about various publications. The Wisconsin Academy of Sciences, Arts, and Letters, has lately published a valuable article by W.F. Allen, professor of History and Latin in the University of Wisconsin, on "The English Cottagers of the Middle Ages," showing that this class of tenants in the thirteenth century was really made up of various groups, some of free and some of servile origin. The second volume of the "Calendar of Virginia State Papers and other Manuscripts, preserved in the Capitol at Richmond," has been recently published under the editorial supervision of William P. Palmer, aided by Sherwin McRae, the State Librarian.
