future publication. All careful records of facts are sure to be 
of use, and we only wish there were more willing, conscien- 
tiously, to note down their observations, and send them to the 
Chairman. 
1882. GEOLOGICAL SECTION. 
Nov. 2—‘‘On changes in the relative levels of Land and Sea along the 
West Coast of England and Wales, with particular reference 
to Submerged Forests and Raised Beaches,” by Mr. D. 
MACKINTOSH, F.G.S. 
Dec. 14—‘ Notes on a Geological Tour in North Leicestershire,” by Mr. 
OsMonD W. JeFFs, Secretary of the Liverpool Geological 
1883. Association. 
Feb. 1—‘ Comparison of Glauconome disticha, Zons., from the Wenlock 
Limestone, with the Glauconome disticha, McCoy, from the 
Bala Beds of Glyn Ceiriog,”’ by Mr. G. W. SHRUBSOLE, F.G.S., 
Chairman. 
Mar. 15—‘‘ Notes of rambles in search of traces of the former existence of 
Glaciers in the Pass of Llanberis,”” by Mr. W. SHONE, F.G.S., 
Secretary. 
The Meetings have all been fairly attended, and the dis- 
cussions arising from some of the Papers have been both lively 
and instructive. The Paper by Mr. SHRuUBSOLE would bear 
careful reading, and we hope it will be published as contributing 
to local Geology. 
1882. NATURAL PHILOSOPHY. 
Nov. 9g—‘‘The meaning of 12 o0’Clock Greenwich mean time,” by MR. 
G. WATMOUGH WEBSTER, F.C.S., Chairman. 
Dec. 21—‘“‘ The Mechanism of Speech,” by Mr. LoGEMAN, of Newton 
1883. School, Rock Ferry. 
Feb. 15—‘‘ Sights we never see and sounds we never hear,” by Mr. C. R.

Mar. 22—‘‘ A description of the Minerals now in the Society’s Museum, and 
formerly belonging to the late SIR PHILIP EGERTON,” by 
Mr. W. F. Lowe, A.R.S.M., Secretary. 
The most remarkable Paper in this Section was by 
Mr. LoGeman, who showed himself a skilled teacher and 
experimentalist, and though a Dutchman by birth, his command 
of the English language was perfect, enabling him to give 
play to wit and fancy, and at the same time impart solid 
instruction.
