THE PRESIDENT'S ADDRESS. 



Gentlemen, 



In again meeting you on the occasion of another Anniver- 

 sary it gives me pleasure to report that the Entomological Society 

 is in a very flourishing condition. Our ranks are increasing in num- 

 ber ; our meetings have been very well attended ; valuable papers 

 have been read at our meetings and printed in our 'Transactions;' 

 and our excellent Treasurer shows that he has been very careful of 

 the funds entrusted to his charge, by having a clear surplus in his 

 hands, after paying all debts, of about £ 75. 



The following statement, which has been kindly furnished by our 

 Secretar}', Mr. Shepherd, will show that during the past year four 

 names have been added to our list of members, and eight to that of 

 our subscribers; that we have lost by resignation two members and 

 three subscribers, and by death one member; so that the increase of 

 our number amounts to twelve, and the decrease to six, leaving the 

 Society stronger by six members or subscribers than it was at the 

 commencement of the year.
