Your Committee have much pleasure in reporting the con- 
tinued success of the Monthly Microscopical Meetings. 
The Conversazione, held in the month of January, at the 
Pavilion, was very successful, but as, in consequence of the en- 
larged scale upon which it was given, the expenses attending it 
consumed an undue proportion of the Funds of the Society, your 
Committee recommend that on future occasions the Tickets for 
Members only be free, and that a small charge be made for all 
other Tickets, but such Tickets to be issued only through Members 
of the Society.
