Since the Catalogue was printed, the members of the Committee entrusted
with its publication have had the opportunity of consulting _The Halifax
Philatelist_ for the current year (1889), the numbers of which had not
previously been seen by them.
The May number contains a copy of a recently-published Canadian postal
notice, referring to certain alterations in the rates, &c.; and in the
numbers for January and February Mr. Donald A. King has two further
papers upon the stamps of Nova Scotia; while the April number contains
a letter from a correspondent upon the bisected stamp of New Brunswick.
The Committee consider it advisable to reproduce here all the four
articles mentioned, feeling sure their contents will be of interest to
philatelists, and help to add further to the completeness of the postal
history of each of the provinces.
