Besides these there were numerous exhibits of apparatus and 

 discussions on various subjects, notices of which will be found 

 in the Proceedings. Although it cannot be said that anything 

 very startling or novel has been produced during the year, 

 great interest evidently continues to be taken in the meetings, 

 as shown by the high average attendance, viz., 62 on the 

 ordinary and 34 on the conversational evenings. 



Only a few specimens have been added to the Cabinet, the 

 most noteworthy being the Rotifers presented by Mr. Rousselet 

 and others. The value of the Tatem entomological collection 

 is at present diminished by the want of a properly classified 

 list of its contents, and the Committee will be much gratified if 

 some member or members, having the requisite knowledge and 

 leisure, will undertake to render this service to the Club. The 

 Botanical and Lithological preparations have now been catalo- 

 gued by the Curator and will shortly be printed.
