TREASURER’S REPORT. 
' 1 have the honor to submit to the Society the following 
account of its finances : 
While the fact that there is a balance in the treasury is 
wholly owing to the generosity of Mr. Carnegie, yet it should 
be borne well in mind that another year the expenses will not 
be so heavy as during the last. There were unforeseen expenses 
in printing the catalogue ; the cost of the Secretary’s several 
trips to New York, and the repayment of sums loaned to the 
Society in 1881, amounting in all to $300. And in figuring 
on the cost of another exhibition this should be kept in mind. 
The income of the Society from annual dues is now about $150. 
Respectfully submitted.
