 fessor Gravis (botany), M. Lameere (president 

 of tbe Belgian Eoyal Academy of Science), 

 Professor Van der Striebt (Ghent), Professor 

 Sarolea (Edinburgh), and Professor Ditmas, 

 successor to tbe late professor, delivered ad- 

 dresses containing references to tbe epocb-ma- 

 king researches of tbe great embryologist and 

 his work upon fecundation and cell reproduc- 

 tion. The speaker who drew tbe greatest ap- 

 plause was Van der Stricht, who, while plead- 

 ing for the University of Ghent, insisted upon 

 it retaining its Preneh character as opposed 

 to a purely Flemish institution. When he had 

 finished his address the Rector, rising amidst 

 the applause of tbe audience, kissed tbe dis- 

 tinguished Fleming upon both cheeks. After- 

 wards the audience proceeded to tbe front en- 

 trance, where tbe full-sized statue in bronze 

 was unveiled. A luncheon, attended by several 

 of tbe delegates and the rector of tbe univer- 

 sity, followed.
