Abstract
I.—LOCAL ARRANGEMENTS. THE various special Local Committees, organised to make preparations for the British Association meeting, to take place in Toronto this year, have now, after a year's work, to report very satisfactory progress in the arrangements for the occasion. In the case of some of the Committees, their work may be considered as finished. The special Committee on Finance, for instance, has secured promises of financial aid to the extent of 5700l. from the Governments of the Dominion of Canada and the Province of Ontario, and from the Toronto City Council. This sum will, it is believed, be fully sufficient for all the expenses of the meeting, which, owing to the special circumstances of the occasion, must be larger than those of any meeting in Great Britain.
