NOTES AND NEWS. 



The September number of * Knowledge,' which has been sent us for reviev 

 consists mostly of articles beyond our sphere of action, including a special one by 

 Mr. E. \Y. Maunder on the Eclipse of the Sun. There is a full-page photo plate 

 of a nesting colony of Sooty Albatrosses at Laysan, and at p. 21 1 the Rev. Samuel 

 Barber gives ■ Some notes on Spiders " in Cumberland and elsewhere. 



We have received the Report and Proceedings of the Manchester Field 

 Naturalists' and Archaeologists' Society for 1895, which is edited by Leo H. 

 Grindon. It is a bulky part of over a hundred pages devoted to picturesquely 

 written accounts of the rambles and lectures. It seems a pity that so strong and 

 prosperous a Society should not turn its attention to definite and systematic work 

 within a restricted field of operations. 



We have before us the 25th Annual Report of the Sheffield Naturalists' Club, 

 for 1895. It is mostly devoted to abstracts of the papers read, and very brief 

 accounts of the Excursions, but a page is given to a Second List of the Floi 

 of Sheffield District, and two pages to Mr. E. Ho wart fa's summary of Sheffield 

 Meteorology for 1895. The balance sheet and lists of members and officers 

 complete the report, which shows the Club to be in a flourishing condition. 



*>*.. 1896.
