ABSTRACT THE fund which has been established by the members of the Birmingham Philosophical Society for the endowment of original research already amounts to 700_l_. in donations, and to
70_l_. in annual subscriptions. Out of this a sum of 150_l_. per annum for three years has been voted to Dr. George Gore, F.R.S., which amount is, in the terms of the grant, placed at his
disposal in order that he “may have greater facilities for continuing in Birmingham his original researches.” The council of the society proposes to make other grants as soon as the funds
will permit. We have already spoken of the enterprise and public spirit of this society in establishing the fund; it is gratifying that they have been able to make a beginning so speedily,
and the success of the scheme cannot be doubted. Dr. Gore's address is now the Institute of Scientific Research, No. 67, Broad Street, Birmingham. Access through your institution Buy or
