Company also continue to present the sheets of the Trigonometrical 

 Survey of India in the order in which they are published. 



All the Charts in the Society's possession, amounting to about 

 850, are now arranged ; and an interleaved catalogue of the Admiralty 

 list of charts has been prepared, which, with the necessary additions 

 in manuscript, renders the entire collection easy of reference. 



The Maps have likewise been arranged; and, as soon as the presses 

 formerly recommended to contain them are ready, they will be dis- 

 posed of in the same manner as the charts. The Committee wish 

 to call attention to the wants of the Society in this department^ 

 and to express their regret that many important maps, recently pub- 

 lished on the Continent, are not in the possession of the Society. 



The Committee think it desirable to publish the following list of 

 the Transactions, which they have been in the habit of receiving 

 from various Philosophical Societies, and in which some lacunce will 

 be observed. 



In connexion with this list of scientific Transactions the Com- 

 mittee have great pleasure in stating, that the Curator has in the 

 course of the last vacation prepared a catalogue of Papers or Me- 

 moirs on Geology, alphabetically arranged according to the names 

 of places, with a similar catalogue arranged according to the names 

 of Fossils, and a third catalogue of Memoirs on Theoretical Geo- 

 logy, arranged according to the names of the authors ; and that these 

 catalogues are accompanied by references so as to form a complete 

 index to all the volumes of Transactions, Journals, and other works, 

 Geological or Miscellaneous, contained in the library. The Com- 

 mittee have the highest satisfaction in concluding their Report with 

 the mention of so useful and meritorious a labour, and wnich adds 

 so materially to the many valuable services rendered by Mr. Lonsdale 

 to the Geological Society.
