election by complj'ing with the regulations of the Society ; 

 seven have neither jjaid the entrance fee nor signed the Con- 

 stitution ; two have signed the Constitution, but have not 

 paid the fee, and one has ])aid the fee altliough he has neg- 

 lected to sign the Constitution. 



We have received eleven new subscribers to our Memoirs 

 and nineteen to our Proceedings; others, however, have with- 

 drawn their names, leaving one hundred and seventy-four 

 subscribers to our Memoirs, and two hundred and thirteen 

 to our Proceedings, a number not yet sufficient to cover 

 three-fourths of the cost of printing. 



We have issued during the year the first number of our 

 Memoirs in quarto; and the second number is nearly through 

 the press ; this is a continuation of the Journal, formerly 

 printed in octavo. We have completed the tenth volume of 

 the Proceedings, and printed the first quarter of the eleventh 

 volume, and the Annual Report for 18G6. The Publishing 

 Committee have been authorized to print an octavo volume 

 of extracts from the Entomological Corres2:)ondence of the 

 late Dr. T. W. Harris, together with any memoranda left by 

 him, Avhich may be of value to the student or agriculturist. 

 The volume will be illustrated and published indei)endently, 

 possibly as the commencement of a series of similar works. 



An Annual of the Society, and a Guide Book to the Mu- 

 seum, will probably be undertaken during the present year. 



As the edition of several signatures of tlie eighth volume 

 of our Proceedings was almost exhausted, the Council re- 

 cently authorized the reprinting of a small edition of the 

 missing parts. In a few wrecks the whole volume can be ob- 

 tained; the first volume will then be the only one out of 

 print. 



Our exchanges with other scientific institutions have been 

 more extensive, both in receipts and in transmissions, than 

 ever before. We have sent away 243 copies of Part I., of 

 our Memoirs, 901 copies of various numbers of our Journal, 

 — 123 of which were imperfect in plates — 539 volumes of 

 our Proceedings, 268 Annual Reports for 1865, and 245 for
