 the Netherlands, by the Minister for the Netherlands; numerous 

 sheets of the Ordnance Survey-map of Great Britain and Ireland, 

 presented by the Director-General, Col. Sir Henry James, P. G.S. 



Owing to the numerous additions made in the Library during the 

 past few years, it was found necessary last year to erect new book- 

 shelves, for which purpose the Council voted the sum of ^14 10s. ; 

 and for want of available wall-space in the Library or Meeting- 

 room, it has been found necessary to place them in the Tea-room. 



The Assistant-Secretary reports that he has been efiiciently 

 assisted by Mr. Horace Woodward, who bas been very assiduous in 

 the discharge of his duties, and has been of especial aid in the 

 Library, and in preparing Diagrams for the Evening-meetings.
