Abstract
MR. HOWARTH is to be congratulated on the manner in which he has used his opportunity, while the record he has produced is a most ample justification of the title of the Association—the British Association for the Advancement of Science—British in that its meetings have been held in nearly every part of the Empire, India excepted; and perhaps, as the part India can play in advancing science is more fully recognised, we may in the years to come have a meeting at Delhi, the centre of a civilisation dating back centuries before the Association.
