Abstract
I HAVE received from M. Pasteur, President of the Committee, a letter informing me that it is proposed to erect a statue to the memory of Dumas at Alais, his native town. The name of Dumas is so prominent in the history of our science that no words of mine are needed in support of such a proposition, and I merely express the hope that many English chemists will be willing to contribute to this memorial. Subscriptions will be received by the secretaries of the Chemical Society, Burlington House, Piccadilly.
