 The most notable event in England for archaeologists during 

 the past year was a discussion, before the Anthropological 

 Institute, upon the Present State of the Evidence as to the 

 Antiquity of Man. The debate was participated in by Messrs. 

 Evans, Hughes, Dawkins, and Tiddemann. Through the press 

 Messrs. Belt, Skertchly, Geikie, and Hughes gave their opin- 

 ions on the same subject (Nature, May 24, 31 ; June 7, 14, 21, 

 28 ; July 5 ; Athenceum, May 5 ; Journal of the Anthropolog- 

 ical Institute, Nov.). 



In Materiaux, No. 12, 1876, M. Mortillet gives a table rep-

 his lectures, which formed a portion of the " Cours d'Anthro- 

 pologie." The same savant read a communication before the 

 Societe d'Anthropologie entitled "Divisions des Alluvions 

 Quaternaires" (Bulletin, 1877, p. 48). At the French Associa-
