survey of the fifty-fourth session of your society.

property unimpaired, the finances somewhat im- 
proved since last year, and the corps of workers for 
the society considerably increased. The council 
look forward hopefully to renewed activity and 
interest in the practical working of the oldest 
scientific society in the North of Ireland.
