Abstract
WE understand that the council of the Society of Arts has awarded the Albert Medal for the present year to the King, and that His Majesty has graciously consented to accept the award. The grounds of the award are principally the services the King has rendered to the Society, and through it to the arts, manufactures and commerce of the country, by acting as its president for thirty-eight years; but reference is also made to the active interest he has long taken in international exhibitions and the actual work which he did as president of the British Commission for several foreign exhibitions, and also as president of the series of exhibitions held at South Kensington, the last of which was the Indian and Colonial Exhibition.
