REPORT OF PUBLICATION COMMITTEE. 



The Publication Committee report, that during the year 1867 

 they have published for the Section three Nos. of the " Ameri- 

 can Journal of Conchology," and three Nos. of the " Mono- 

 graph of Terrestrial Mollusca," besides "the By-Laws of the 

 Conchological Section," and "Price Lists of Books and Speci- 

 mens for sale," and part of the " Catalogue of Recent Mol- 

 lusca." As the subscription to the Journal, for the year, •will 

 necessarily include our proceedings of this evening and any 

 papers that may on this occasion be ordered to be printed, and 

 as the committee have several unpublished papers as well as 

 printed lithographic plates in hand, they prefer to include in the 

 exhibit of their transactions an estimate of Part 4 of the Journal. 



Two hundred and fifty copies of the Journal, Parts 1, 2 and 3, 

 have been printed, aggregating over three hundred octavo 

 pages, and it is probable that the 4th and concluding part of the 

 current volume will embrace about one hundred pages, making 

 in all 400 pages. 



Two hundred and fifty extra copies of the By-Laws, 25 pp. 

 8 vo. and one hundred copies each of the " Price List of Shells," 

 that of duplicate books, and the " Monograph of Terrestrial 

 Mollusca;" also, fifty copies of part 1 of the "Catalogue and 

 Synonymy of the Genera, Species and Varieties of Recent
