During the year, one hundred and fifteen copies of the 
latest edition of the Map of the Malay Peninsula have been 
disposed of, whereby a sum of $295.49 has been placed to 
the credit of the Society. 
The Council have much pleasure in announcing that they 
are now almost in a position to publish a fresh edition of the 
Map, embodying all the most recent surveys in Pahang, 
Perak, Kelantan, Jelebu, and the Negri Sembilan. A survey 
of a portion of the East Coast was also supplied by Capt. H. 
Carr, of H. M. S. Orzon, which will form a valuable addition 
to the Map. All these surveys have now been worked up by 
a draughtsman, whose services for this purpose were kindly 
lent by the Survey Department, and the work of compilation 
may be expected to be complete before the end of February. 
It is hoped that any members who are in a position to supply 
further information will do so at once, so that it may be 
embodied in the Map before it is sent home for publication. 
The Council desire to express their best thanks to all those 
who have contributed the results of their valuable labours 
towards this most useful work, thereby rendering it possible, 
after a lapse of only two and-a-half years since the last edition 
was published, to bring out a new edition of the Map, con- 
taining a large. amount of fresh information in regard to 
localities which have hitherto remained practically unexplored. 
No. 1g of the Journal was published last year, and No. 20 
has just been produced. The Council much regret that, 
owing to unfortunate circumstances, the publication of the 
Journal has somewhat fallen behind. The Journal published 
last year (No. 19) bears the date 1887, but as. it was not 
brought out till 1889, it will thus be seen that we are two 
years in arrears. The Council have thought it best, therefore,
