— On Monday next Captain Cox pro- 
poses to discuss at some length the 
ravages of Scolgtus destructor upon elm

past, provided by the respected host and 
hostess. On the withdrawal of the 
cloth, the well-known veteran in Entomo- 
logy and Botanical Science, Mr. Jethro 
Tinker, was called to the chair. The 
usual loyal and other toasts having been 
proposed and responded to, the Chair- 
man, at some length, expatiated upon 
the merits attendant upon a study of 
Entomology. lie explained the origin 
and progress of the Society, with which 
he had been connected since its forma- 
tion, and urged the propriety of all the 
members doing what they could to in- 
duce others to join them in the inte- 
resting study which Entomology held out 
to them. Amongst others who addressed
