The first two parts of the fourteenth volume of our Proceedings 

 have been already published, the third is in print, and the fourth 

 will be issued at an early date. 



The following abstract of the work which this volume repre- 

 sents may, I hope, be found of some assistance to the inquirer in 

 following up references to other parts of our Proceedings, as well 

 as to those of the sister scientific societies established elsewhere 

 among the English-speaking communities of the southern hemi- 

 sphere. 



Since the beginning of 1889 we have received copies of the 

 aforesaid Proceedings as follows, viz. : —
