340 In Memoriam — Professor Huxley. 



a Member of the Eoyal Irish Academy ; of the American Academy 

 of Science; and (in 1879) a Corresponding Member of the Institute 

 of France (Section Anatomy and Zoology, in place of Von Baer). 

 He was also a Eiddare of the Pole Star of Sweden. 



Turning to his published works, we may refer to his " Oceanic 

 Hydrozoa": his Lectures on Comparative Anatomy and Physiology ; 

 Lessons in Elementary Physiology (186G), and many subsequent 

 editions; An Introduction to the Classification of Animals (1869); 

 '•Lay Sermons, Addresses, and Eeviews " (1870). His textbooks 

 on the Anatomy (I) of the Vertebrata (1871), and (II) of the 

 Invertebiata ; his Practical Biology ; " Man's Place in Nature " ; 

 on the Cray-fish, and on Physiography, well illustrate the wide 

 extent and versatility of his powers, both as a naturalist and author; 

 but it was by his lectures and addresses that he displayed the most 

 marvellous of his intellectual gifts, and produced the greatest effect 

 upon the science of his time. He had that wonderful power of 

 carrying his audience along with him, and the happy facility of 

 bringing his knowledge within the mental grasp of his hearers.
