Announcements by the Council, 
CONVERSAZIONE ON THE 26TH (INSTEAD OF 
THE 251н) or May. 
The Council have received several sug- 
gestions from Fellows paying two guineas 
a year, to the effect that they should be 
allowed to have the privilege of bringing 
а companion with them to the President's 
Conversazione, on Thursday, the 26th of May. 
It would have given the Council pleasure 
on this, as on all occasions, to meet the 
wishes of the Fellows, but they regret that 
they have felt themselves unable to accede 
to this suggestion. 
The Council feel that they have already 
this year extended the privileges of the 
Fellows to the utmost extent consistent 
with balaneing the income and expenditure 
of the Society, and that any admission to 
the Conversaziones of the Society by excep- 
tional payment could not be entertained. 
he express object of establishing the 
Evening Meetings of the Fellows was, that 
they should be exclusively the Meetings of 
the Fellows and Debenture-Holders, with 
Such distinguished guests as the President 
might think it right to invite. The success 
of these Evening Meetings will depend upon 
the rigid applieation of these rules. 
Fellows, Holders of Fellows’ transferable 
tickets, Debenture-Holders, and other nomi- 
nees, are requested to produce their Cards 
"pon entering; and, to prevent improper 
admissions; the door-keepers will be in- 
3 Ad to admit none without them. 
Fellows are reminded that the colour of 
their this year's personal tickets is blue. 
The colour of their this year's transferable 
tickets is buff; and of the Ten-guinea life- 
tickets brown. 
The colour of this year's Debenture 
tickets is red. 
A carriage-ticket is sent to each Fellow 
and Debenture-Holder with this Journal, 
giving directions for the setting down and 
taking up of carriages.* 
rangements will be made for taking 
Ladies’ cloaks, but not Gentlemen’s hats. 
Gentlemen are expected to appear in evening
