Abstract
IN the remarks which at our last anniversary I had the honour of offering from this chair, I congratulated the students of geology and mineralogy upon the new and intimate relations which, to their mutual advantage, are now growing up between those departments of science. It has, however, been suggested that, while geologists are thus being brought into closer alliance with mineralogists, the strong bonds of union which have so long united us with the biologists are becoming somewhat relaxed, and, indeed, stand in no small danger of actual dissolution.
