Book excerpt: Excerpt from Journal of the Royal Institution of Cornwall, Vol. 12 The Spring Meeting was held in the Society's Rooms at Truro, on the lst of June, the President, Sir John Maclean, in the Chair. In lieu of a formal address, Sir John made some remarks' on subjects which were occupying the attention of the Council, and which would he hoped prove useful to the County in the interests of science. He had been informed that a suggestion had been made that the existing Scientific Societies Should be more closely associated with each other, and he heartily commended such a scheme to their consideration. He was glad to be able to state that the Royal Institution of Cornwall was' prosperous, and that the number of its members was well maintained. In the place of their former curator, Mr. Crowther (who had obtained an appointment in the North of England), they had found an able successor, Mr. Gregg, who would, he felt sure, carry on efficiently the various branches of work already in progress. The Society had sustained a great loss by the death of Dr. J ago, who had filled the highest offices in the Society, and had, for a very great number of years, taken an active interest in its welfare.
