Mr. Spicer said it gave him much pleasure to ask the acceptance by 
the Section of the specimens which were the result of his rambles during 
the leisure he had lately enjoyed ; he had named them carefully, and to the 
best of his ability, and should any errors have crept in it was not for want 
of watchfulness on his part. 
The Chairman said a vota of thanke would be a very inadequate mode of 
expressing their gratitude to Mr. Spicer for this handsome addition to their 
Herbarium, but he was sure the members would concur with him in looking 
back with pleasure to the short period of their friend's sojourn among them, 
and in hoping that when he returned to his parishioners he v/oulcl still assist 
them with his advice and counsel.

Mr. Adolph Leipner gave an account of the "Carboniferous Corals in 
the Museum Collection of the Bristol Philosophical Institution." 
The author at the outset wished it to be understood that any remarks 
containing views differing from those of the Authors of the ' ' Monograph of 
the British Fossil Corals," were offered with the greatest diffidence ; that in 
reviewing the collection, now by him named and arranged according to the 
Monograph, he would follow the latter closely, and even mention Genera and 
Species not yet represented in the Museum, in the hope that a list of 
desiderata would stimulate the energies of local collectors, and perhaps also 
bring presents or offers of exchange even from a distance. The desiderata 
are printed in Italics.
