40 Annual EeporL [Feb. 



against Rs. 9,009 for the previous year ; this, however, was to be expected 

 in consequence of the reduction of the quarterly subscriptions of resident 

 members from Es. 12 to 9 : the actual loss on this head amounts to Es. 

 1,272. 



The receipts from admission and compounding fees were Es. 880 and 

 Es. 770 respectively, but as these sums are funded they cannot be consider- 

 ed part of the income of the Society, and have consequently been omitted 

 from the table showing the net income of the Society. These items were 

 included in the estimate of ' income' for 1877. 



The outstandings due to the Society for admission-fees, subscriptions, 

 and sale of publications have, the Council regret to report, increased during 

 the year from Es. 6,270 to Es. 7,074-5-5, the greater portion of which is 

 irrecoverable, and will have to be written of£ to profit and loss. The arrears 

 for subscriptions from Members only, are Es. 5,874-14, upon which a re- 

 duction of Es. 400 has been effected during the year.
