482 Professor Thorpe on the Chemical Work of Wohler. [Feb. 15, 



University, it was found that upwards of 8000 students had attended 

 his lectures or worked in his laboratory. He was a man whom the 

 world has delighted to honour, and there was hardly an academy of 

 science or a learned society which has not in some way or other 

 recognised his services to science. He was made a foreign member of 

 the Eoyal Society in 1854, a corresponding member of the Berlin 

 Academy in 1855, Foreign Associate of the Institute of France in 

 1864, and in 1872 he received the Copley medal from the Eoyal 

 Society. He died on the 23rd September, 1882.
