Ordinary Meeting, January 12th, 1897. 



Professor Reynolds, LL.D., F.R.S., Vice-President, 



in the Chair. 



The thanks of the members were voted to the donors of 

 the books upon the table. 



Mr. Faraday exhibited an enlarged photograph of the 

 Pont du Gard, showing the points referred to at the last 

 meeting of the Society, and specially referred to the cir- 

 cumstance that, though the South of France and the 

 Riviera generally seemed to have the character of an 

 earthquake district, and many earthquakes and earth- 

 tremors might be reasonably assumed to have occurred 

 during the 2,000 years since the bridge was built, no cracks 

 nor indications of displacement or sinking were presented 

 by the structure. 



Mr. L indsay Johnson, M.D., F.R.C.S. (introduced by 

 Mr. William H. Johnson) exhibited and remarked upon a 

 series of drawings of the fundus oculi of animals, which he has 

 given much time during the last five years in preparing, and 

 also an enlarged photograph (6 ft. long) of the yellow spot in 

 the human eye, a copy of which he presented to the Society.
