iiiveu l)y .Mr Elliot on his travels, aud laudutoiy speech delivered 

 l>y Sir James C Browne. 



A Eoniau camp has been laid open at Birreus by the Scottish 

 Society of Antiquaries, on the suggestion of Dr James Macdouald 

 of Edinburgh. At the request of the Edinburgh society we elected 

 Mr James Barbour as our representative on the excavation com- 

 mittee. Ilis choice has been amply rewarded, for he has been of 

 inestimable value to the committee in their explorations. ^^ e 

 hope to have a paper descriptive of the results of the excavations 

 from Mr Barbour in the course of the session. 



As the subscription for membership is so small, it would be 

 an advantage to the Society if the number of members were 

 increased. After paying for tlie publication of the Transactions, 

 very little money is left for the defrayment of the incidental 

 expenses of the Society. It is therefore incumbent on members to 

 introduce friends who will either take a personal interest in the work 

 of the Society, or by their subscriptions contribute to its success 

 aud usefulness.
