The Chairman in putting the motion observed it was happy for us, 

 seeing that the Government had done so little for meteorology, that 

 one of our members had been able to effect so much. The motion 

 having passed, a "special vote of thanks" was accorded to Mr. E. D. 

 Swan for his very valuable and acceptable donation ; and, a vote of 

 thanks having been also given to the Rev. W. W. Spicer, and the 

 donors of the presentations, the proceedngs terminated.
