The tenth annual meeting of the members of the Royal

(Prof.), W. Morton (Prof.), James Moon, M. J. Harpley, and 
James Hall. 
The Chairman , in opening the proceedings, said that the only 
circumstance which he had to mention as having occurred 
during his tenure of office, was that the members of the 
College were now for the first time assembled in a habitation of 
their own, instead of, as formerly, in the Freemasons 5 Tavern; 
and he hoped that their new dwelling would often be the 
witness to counsels, which should lead to the advancement 
of their interests, and the exclusion of those feelings of “envy, 
hatred, and malice, 55 that had hitherto disturbed the una- 
nimity of the profession. (Hear, hear.) 
The Secretary then read the following abstract of the pro- 
ceedings of the Council : —
