Appointments to the Council.

Subject to confirmation by the Fellows at the next Annual Meeting, General Sir H. C. B. Daubeney, G.C.B., has been appointed a Vice-President, in succession to the late Sir William Mackinnon, Bart.; and T. Morgan Harvey, Esq. (late of Natal), a Councillor, in succession to the late Dr. John Rae, F.R.S.

Honorary Corresponding Secretary, Sydney.

Mr. Wilfred L. Docker, of Sydney, New South Wales, has been appointed Honorary Corresponding Secretary in succession to Mr. Laidley Mort, who has been kind enough to discharge the duties of that office for nearly four years past.

Use of Council Room for Conferences.

Subject to the approval of the Council, the Council Room will be available for Conferences on subjects of general Colonial interest, when not otherwise engaged. Applications should be addressed to the Secretary, explaining in each case the object in view, it being understood that the use of the room cannot be granted for party-political, religious, or company-promoting purposes.

Late Opening of the Institute.

The Institute will again be kept open, by way of experiment, from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. on week-days, up to December 30, except on evenings of Ordinary Meetings, when it will close at 7.30 p.m. The permanency of the arrangement will depend on whether the attendance is such as to justify the additional expense that must necessarily be incurred.

Informal Social Meetings.

At the suggestion of several Fellows of the Institute it is proposed to hold informal meetings in the Smoking Room on Wednes- page 138 day evenings at 8 o'clock, for the discussion, in a conversational way, of Colonial, literary, and social subjects.

A notice will be posted in the Hall of the Institute each week announcing the subject to be brought under discussion on the Wednesday evening next ensuing, and the name of its introducer.

Changes of Address.

Fellows of the Institute are particularly requested to notify all changes in their addresses to the Secretary, so that the Journal and other communications may be forwarded without delay.

Colonial Newspapers at the British Museum.
