Abstract
THE tenth International Geological Congress met this year in Mexico, and the proceedings connected with it extended altogether over a period of nearly two months. Elaborate arrangements for the reception and entertain- ment of the members were made by the Mexican authorities; the President of the Republic, General Porfirio Diaz, himself manifested a lively interest in the work of the congress, and desired that everything possible should be done to make it successful. Over and above this, liberal financial assistance was rendered, the Mexican Government bearing half the cost of the steamer and railway fares of those attending the meeting.
