PKOPOSED EXTENSION OF BtJILDINGS. 



The distinct purposes of these Societies are sufficiently- 

 defined., and do not need mention here ; but attention may 

 properly be called to the claims of Truro as a centre for pur- 

 poses of such combined CDncern, on account of convenience of 

 access from all quarters, of its character as our only city, and 

 of the extent and universal interest of the Museum. 



Por this reason, and because almost every part of the 

 county is represented on the list of its Members, and has been 

 visited in turn through the Annual Excursions, it may be hoped 

 that the projected extension may be regarded with cordial 

 acceptance from the Land's End to the Tamar, and that the 

 necessary funds will be readily contributed. The amount can- 

 not yet be stated with any approach to accuracy ; it will depend 

 in great measure on the requirements and grants of the Depart- 

 ment of Science and Art. Meantime, while it is hoped that the 

 utmost liberality will meet this appeal, the payment of dona- 

 tions may be deferred till it is ascertained that the whole 

 amount will be obtained. On this principle two of our Mem- 

 bers will contribute £50 each when the rest is secured.
