membara of the above society had their annual meeting
in their lecture room, Flu teitreet. At half-past six
tea was provided, utter which Mr. Itandell, in the
absence of the president, the Übe. J. 8. Wallis, opened
the business of the meeting by calling on the secretary,
Mr. S. Hobbs, to read tb- report for the put year.
From this report we gather that • large number of
ineetings love bees hl,s, lectures given, end Pleeget
taken, but from the part of the persons holding pledge
books, not hawing yet brought them forward, the
registrar could not enter the number of pledgee taken,
but • large number of nano have been enrolled during
the year. Mr. S. Hardy, the tretharer, gave his report
of cash roomed from all sanrres daring the year. an-
eluding £5 ss. from It. FAwares. Foe., 51,P., and £22..
from J. C. Et.ohre,, Esq., M.P., to be Elle. lbs. 14d;

the society, £3 Ss. 2gd. Daring the evening a desire
was repressed by several members that efforts ought to
be male to get • better place to hold their meetings. A
resolution to that effect was carried. The onion of the
society mostly retain their poet of honour for another
