CAMBRIDGE MEETING OF THE BRITISH ASSOCIATION. 



The meeting of the British Association for the Advancement of 

 Science for this year is to be held at Cambridge j to commence on 

 the 24th of June, and end on the following Friday. A notice re- 

 specting the arrangements for visitors, and inviting the attendance 

 and communications of men of science, has been issued by the Cam- 

 bridge Secretaries, Professor Henslow and the Rev. W. Whewell. 

 All who are aware of the gratification, and the advantage to science, 

 with which the former meetings have been attended, must, we are 

 persuaded, feel a wish to be present. A full Report of the Pro- 

 ceedings of those meetings is nearly ready for publication, con- 

 taining a large body of valuable scientific information.

The next meeting of German Philosophers, similar to those which 

 have been already held at Berlin, Hamburg, Heidelberg and Vienna, 

 and from which have been derived our York, Oxford, and approach- 

 ing Cambridge Associations, — is appointed to be held this year at 

 Breslau, the capital of Silesia.
