Abstract
THE report of the proceedings of the Select Committee on Forestry which sat during the past summer does not, perhaps, throw any more light on the condition forestry in this country than was possessed before the appointment of the Committee, for the substance of the evidence given is for the most part to be found in the various works and reports on forestry that have appeared from time to time during the past few years; nevertheless the evidence of such men so well versed in forest conservancy, especially with regard to India, as Dr. Cleghorn, Col. Michael, Col. Pearson, and Mr. W. G. Pedder is of much value, as it brings together in collected form information that has hitherto been much scattered.
