Abstract
IN the last number of Silliman's Journal is an account of this year's meeting of the American Association, held at Salem, under the presidency of Mr. J. M. Foster, of Chicago, which seems to have passed off as pleasantly and usefully as did our own at Exeter. Over one hundred and fifty new members were elected. The number of communications entered upon the daily programmes of the Standing Committee was about one hundred and fifty. The range of these papers was considerable, and it was found expedient to have sub-sections on Archæology and Microscopy, to facilitate the disposal of papers which could not be reached in the other sections.
