REPORT- 1854.

an expression of their grateful thanks for the zealous and valuable assistance 
which he afforded to them when his cooperation was invited ; and when the

the interests of science in the legislature, they cannot but consider that by 
the retirement of Sir R. II. Inglis from Parliament, science has lost therein a 
zealous advocate and a sincere friend.
