Dr. Meigs announced the death of Dr. Drake, a member of 

 the Society, who died at Cincinnati on the 5th inst., in the 

 67th year of his age; and, on motion of Dr. Dunglison, Dr. 

 Meigs was appointed to prepare an obituary notice of the de- 

 ceased member. 



Mr. Trego adverted to the remarks made by him at the last 

 meeting, on certain mineral specimens found on the table land 

 west of the Rio del Norte, and laid before the Society some 

 fine specimens of copper ore, from the same region. These he 

 had temporarily mislaid at the last meeting; but had since 

 found them. They are chiefly specimens of native copper, 

 and were given him by Dr. Hammond, of the U, S. Army, 

 who found that smelting establishments had existed in the lo- 

 cality in which the specimens were obtained, but had been 

 abandoned.
