Report on the Library, by P. R. Uhler. 



The increase of the Library during the past year has not 

 been very great, but, nevertheless, some works of interest have 

 been added to it. 



Prof. Louis Agassiz has presented a number of volumes, and 

 the following gentlemen have also contributed to its enlarge- 

 ment: — Messrs. A. Agassiz, J. Heco, A. Ordway, Dr. M. 

 Wyman, J. M. Barnard, Prof. Marcou, S. H. Scudder, Prof. 

 J. Hall, P. R. Uhler, and C. F. Hartt. The Boston Society 

 of Natural History has presented an almost complete set of its 

 Journal, and Proceedings, and the Naturforschende Gesell- 

 schaft, Emden, has presented some pamphlets. Several valuable 

 works on Entomology were purchased from Dr. F. E. Melshei- 

 mer, and a set of the British Museum Lists of Geometridae were 

 obtained to supply the means for working up a portion of the 

 Lepidoptera in the Museum collection. A physical map of 

 North Carolina was added by purchase, and a geological map 

 of the Roman States was presented by Prof. Ponzi.
