friend has placed in our possession the printed re-
port of the proceedings of the New Orleans Academy Of
Sciences from March 2ad 1862 to February 9th, 1854
So modest and unassuming has this society been since
its estabshment-ttle year ago-that it is
than probable that one half of the community never
heard of its existence. And yet read
that the New Orleans Academy of Sciences is the
nucleus Of institution that trust at distant day
is destined to reflect the highest credit the learning
and the intellectual pursuits Of Louisiana Even it
numbers among its members professional and other gen.
temen of considerable distinction and its sittings
rendered interesting and instructive by the views and
discussions of Barton, Dowler, Blanchard, Rid
dell, Pcton, Copes, Simonds and Hale.
The volume before appears to be condensed sum-
mary Of the proceedings and though the form in which
the discussions given is often provokiDgy brief
variety of important subjects has before the
society and has elected much lively controversy Arte-
sian wells the draining Of the city, the origin of mounds
the yet mperfecty explored field Of hygiene the theory
of petrfactisn Indian languages the and laws Of
epdemics mineral waters, numsmatcs, disinfectants
the action of narcotics antiquarian researches suber
heat and other themes within the domain of sci
en6c Investigation have been submitted to the society,"
and have undergone keen and close discussion Prof E.
Everett Of the New Orleans College, communicates
interesting essay Indian Pottery, accompanied with
some highly curious specimens. Prof Chiffon contri-
butes exceedingly instructive monograph on Roman
coins, embracing within the compass OF few pages many
valuable results of archaeological research An analysis Of
mineral waters by W. P Riddel illustrates beautifully the
minute operations Of chemistry Dr. Crawcour presents
method of procuring phosphorus of less combus
be character than the ordinary kind and better adapt
ed to medicinal purposes Dr. Barton reads very Ella
borate disquison the sanitary condition city,
the of epidemic visitatons, and the of
avoiding them for the future. Dr. Benedict expresses
and interesting ideas relative narcotics and
nervous stmulants Finally Dr. Campbell lays before
the society plan for under ground draining, and
Messrs. Rddell and Blanchard express their views ut
length in reference to system of sewerage. 1t will be
that the society has had its hands full and cannot
complain Of a lack of topics of interest
We trust that the next annual report Of the society
will be Of less dscursve character and present the de-
alterations Of the Academy in connected and de-
tailed form. What have only whes our appetite
for something more. There is an immense amount of
talent in the learned professions Of city, and there Is
no why Academy of Sciences in New Orleans
should not become eminent any other kindred
