locality of the strata from which the specimen is taken. The 

 geological formation of the island appears to b^mariue and 

 phosphatic breccia, and constitutes the most valuable source of 

 mineral manure at present available to the agricultural re- 

 quirements of the age ; and fully impressed with the belief 



that great good will result from its peculiar properties being 

 generally known throughout our agricultural districts, I have 

 ventured to submit these observations for your consideration, 

 if you deem them worthy a place in your widely-circulated 

 journal. A Modern Agriculturist. 



ROYAL AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE. 



The Session was brought to a close on Tuesday evening, 

 Dec. 20, !8r)9, the Examination having ended on the pre- 

 vious day. Edward Holland, Ejq., M.P., chairman of the 

 Committee of Management, awarded the Diplomas and 

 Prizes, and the Choral Society of the College treated the 

 visitors with a concert, which, above the average in quality, 

 was fully appreciated by the aiidicnce. 



We are happy to say that a fewer number of In-students 

 are leaving this Session than usual, the number being only 

 sixteen. It is gratifying also to be able to state that the 

 applications for admission, besides being more numerous, 

 are from men of an age likely to derive full advantage from 

 a collegiate system, aud that there is a fair chance of the 

 College being satisfactorily filled.
