In pleading with the Scottish public for the augmentation and enrich ment of our Museum by donations of all kinds, however slight and trivial they may seem to the Donors, we plead for what is not any longer the property of this Society, but what is now the property of the Nation. The Museum has been gifted over by the Society of Antiquaries to the Government. It now belongs, not to us, but to Scotland; and we unhesitat/ingly call upon every true-hearted Scotsman to contribute, whenever it is in his power, to the extension of this Museum, as the best record and collection of the ancient Archaeological and Historical Memorials of our Native Land.
