Abstract
IN France there is at the present time a movement of regeneration in the scientific world, slow indeed, and difficult to be seen through the troubles on the surface, but the evidence of it is incontestable. The actual activity is great; publications of every kind appear, some quite new, as the Journal de Physique, the Archives de Zoologies; others improved and extended, as the Annales de l'Ecole Normale. The Comptes Rendus of the Paris Academy, which are the weekly résumé of French science, have rarely been so full of important memoirs, while research, almost dead to England, promises regeneration for French science.
