It was reported at the time of the Franco-German war that the Prussian soldiers profited much by their general acquaintance with the geography of France, and by the possession of convenient pocket maps furnished to them of the invaded districts. To supply the combatants in the Anti-Vivisection Crusade with some such knowledge, and such _cartes du pays_ of the physiologists’ ground, was the original purpose of the _Vivisectors’ Directory_, as prepared for THE ZOOPHILIST. It was recognised by those engaged in the thick of the fight against scientific cruelty that it was impossible to retain in the memory the names of all, even of the most notorious Vivisectors, or to attach to them their particular class of experiments; nor, in the case of English physiologists, was it practicable to recall without continual reference to the whole series of Parliamentary Returns what were the Licenses and Certificates wherewith they have been annually provided. These facts,--so often needed in controversy,--it was proposed to marshal in the compendious form of a _Directory_, so that each Zoophilist possessed of a copy should be enabled at a moment’s notice to tell in which province of the “_doloroso regno_” of Research each Vivisector might be found, what were his titles and address, and the books he had published; and (if he were a British subject) how many Licenses and Certificates he had received.
