be enabled to state that our Society has been placed upon 

 the list of Corresponding Societies in connection with the 

 British Association for the advancement of Science, on the 

 ground that we "undertake local scientific investigations 

 and publish notices of the results." 



The Natural History Collection was removed into the 

 new room provided for the Society on the completion of 

 the Grosvenor Museum, and was opened to the public 

 on the 2nd of February last. The new room has been 

 furnished by special subscriptions from some of the Mem- 

 bers, but there is still much to be done. The Curator has 

 worked wonders with the means and material at hand, but 

 given a band of enthusiastic collectors, he would be enabled 

 to compass still more. A detailed Report as to the con- 

 dition of the Society's Collections will be presented by 

 Mr. Newstead. 



The more immediate work of the Society is comprised 

 under the heads Summer Excursions, Evening Rambles, 

 General Lectures, and Sectional Meetings.
