Reading edition

S. D. Peet, who edits this journal, has advanced in one of his papers (vii. 82) that some of these earthworks are Indian game drives and screens. (He also contributed a classification of them to the Congrès des Américanistes, 1877, i. 103.) The paper by J. E. Stevenson (ii. 89), and that by Horatio Hale on “Indian Migrations” (Jan.-April, 1883), are worth noting. The Compte Rendu, Congrès des Américanistes, 1875 (i. 387), has Joly’s “Les Moundbuilders, leurs Œuvres et leurs Caractères Ethniques,” and that for 1877 has a paper by John H. Becker and Stronck. That by R. S. Robertson in Ibid. (i. p. 39) is also reprinted in the Mag. Amer. Hist. (iv. 174), March, 1880; while in March, 1883, will be found some of T. H. Lewis’s personal experiences in exploring mounds. Some other periodical papers are: W. de Haas, in Trans. Am. Asso. Adv. Science, 1868; D. A. Robertson, in Journal Amer. Geog. Soc., v. 256; A. W. Vogeles and S. L. Fay, in Amer. Naturalist, xiii. 9, 637; E. B. Finley in Mag.
