524 Beports and Proceedings — 



female examples are preserved, the limbs and the margins of tlie 

 carapace are also well seen. 



From the Greensand, Isle of Wight, I have also obtained a new 

 species of Hemioon'? (Bell), but larger than H. Cunningtoni. Fi'om 

 the Hard Chalk, Dover, I have received a new form of Eno]ploctyiia, 

 which I propose to call E. scnhrosa. 



Only one new species of Trilobite has to be noticed ; it was 

 found at Utah, and sent over by Mr. Henry S. Poole, Inspector of 

 Mines, Nova Scotia. I have referred it to the genus Oleniis, under 

 the name of Olenus Utahensis. It shows evidence of a median axis 

 apparently corresponding with the so-called " straight alimentary 

 canal" noticed by Barrande. The matrix is composed of a hydrated 

 silicate of magnesia. 



This completes my list of new forms examined and determined by 

 me. Some of them are already engraved for publication. 



V. — EoTAL CoENWALL GEOLOGICAL SociETY. — The annual meeting 

 of the Eoyal Cornwall Geological Society was held on Friday, 

 Oct. 17th, at the Museum, Penzance. Mr. Warington Smyth, F.E.S., 

 the President, occupied the Chair ; and there was a large company 

 present. 



The President opened his address by a feeling reference to the 

 loss of Miss Carne, who, alike by her intellectual power, her 

 generosity, and her cheerful industry, had for years past in the 

 hia;hest degree fostered and advanced the interests of the Institution. 

 In her had been lost not only a munificent donor, but a kind friend, 

 ever ready to volunteer counsel or aid by work of hand or head 

 whenever her quiet judgment suggested that they would be welcome. 

 That spacious apartment, where, without her aid, they would hardly 

 have been able to meet that day, was, perhaps, not the place to refer 

 to her noble and discriminating charities, and the numerous deeds of 

 goodness upon which many a tongue in that neighbourhood would 

 gladly dilate. But they could not neglect there to dwell upon the 

 admirable work done in their own particular sphere, and on the 

 useful example set by a life so wisely spent. Few of his auditors 

 were unaware that when a large amount of debt appeared likely to 

 interfere with that Society's enjoyment of the new buildings, she 

 undertook on easy terms to arrange for the payment of £500 of it. 

 Then they were deeply indebted to her and to her excellent and 

 unwearied elder sister for the admirable arrangement of their collec- 

 tion. In her varied acquirements as an observer in Geology and 

 Natural History, and in her facility as a writer. Miss Carne followed 

 worthily in the footsteps of her father, one of the founders of the 

 Society, and of her uncle, whose '' Letters from the East " formed 

 one of the best books of travel of the last generation. It was with 

 regret, he confessed, that certain of Miss Game's original observa- 

 tions communicated to the Society were not yet printed ; and it might 

 be hoped that this would lead to an effort to bring up the arrears of 

 publication. After referring at some length to Miss Game's last 

 work — " The Kealm of Truth " — the President proceeded to give a
