At Uie Council meeting held on Octo- erinli, the resignation of Mr. C. N. Bell, I president of the Society, was accepted. lo action was taken to till the vacancy, and the duties of the president have since been Idled by the 1st vice-iircsident. .SKVIiN OAKS MICMORIAl.. Si'veral coniinunicatioiis have ])asscd, during the year, between llie Society and I.ady Selkirk cdiicerning the proposed erection of .i nionumeiU on the site of tlii' battle of .Seven Oaks referred to in the last annual report. Her Ladyship has kindly consented to contribute IflilMl for this purpose; the monument to be erected under the auspices of the .Society and the inscriijtion thereon to lie submitted to her Ladyship before being engraved. The Council, in October, appointed a committee consisting of Messrs. Hell, I5ryce, Haird, MacHeth and Nairn to com- plete arrangements for the monument's erection. The committee, having con- sulted with the contractor, advised the erection being deferred till next spring, in consequence of the difticulty exiieri- enced in quarrying stone suitable for its construction. The Council, therefore, regrets that the completion of this pro- ject must be left to its .successors. MUSHU.M. The steps taken, as recommended in the annual report of last year, towards securing better accommodation for the Society's Natural History Collection have not been successful. This Council agrees with its predecessor that this is a matter of great importance, but regrets that it sees its way to make no suggestion where- by the (lifTiculty can be overcome. .Some- thing might be done, perhans, in the way of re-catalogueing and re-arranging the specimens, but with the present inferior accommodation there is little encourage- ment for the members particularly con- cerned in this branch of the .Society's work to take the trouble that would necessitate. The Council is pleased to report the addition of several articles of inter ,t during the year, among which may be mentioned the donations of a magniliccnt specimen of the black coast wolf, and some manuscripts relating to the educa- tion of the young in the early days of the Red River .Settlement, b}- Mr. Horace Belanger, of Norway House, one of the ^^mr*^ mam I m H most arlivf ;iiul j^iiuroiis ol llu- Socitty's lorrcsjioinl'iij^ iiuiiilnis.

Of this the Connci) has spent ^lU.l'ii. Anions the books ordered may be mentioneil the fol- lowiiiK : ".Schoolcraft's Indians, " "The Health Ivxhibition Reports," " Lord Dnr- ham's Report on Canada," "Sir I'rani'is Head's Narrative," and the first volnme of Mnrray's New Dictionary. The Society's library has also received several additions by donations, amoiif^ which may be particularized those from the Dominion and I'liited Slates (Govern- ments and an is].") edition of the Ivncy- clopd'dia Hrittanica ])resented bv Mr. T.

The Library Committee of the Histori- cal and .Scientific .Society l)egs leave to report that it was entrusted with the task by the .Society at its annual meeting of spending sJlioO in purchasing reference books, and in jjublishing and binding. In carrying out these objects several very valuable purchases have been made. A copy of Schoolcraft's Indians, ti volumes, (piarlo, a very rare work, and a complete thesaurus of Indian lore was bought in London for ten guineas, costing laid down in Winnipeg about $(10. The most valuable set of liritish Health Reports, 17 volumes, containing a number of very important discussions, was got for jillH. The .Society has also received the iirst volume of Murray's great Ivnglish Dic- tionary at a cost of si"). It is thought there will be about ten volumes, costing the Society $1")0 in all. This is the great- est philological work ever undertaken, and will grace the shelves of the .Society. A number of Northwest books have been . .1' I ' \ 8 receiverl, and a selection made of a }^ood many more, which will amount to up- wanls ot $oO. The vSociety has decided to make a luller collection of Nortwcstern books, in so far as our fluids will ])crinit, and this will he a most attractive feature of the Society's reference library. The usual considerable additions were obtained by the <^cner<)us j^ifts to the vSociety of the V. S. Government pub- lications, as well as those of the Dominion (Government, and of many private ])er- sons and well-known Societies. The So- ciety has published, with one exception, all the papers read before it this year, and is one of the three J copies of a catalogue toa sold at a small cost to subscribers. IntrT Mayor's inaugural atldress a refertcj was made to the foundingof a freelihn; for the City. This has not been ckI sidered yet by the Joint Committee L therefore no recommendation is niadtj the subject. The Joint Library Coiiii!: tee has worked very harmoniously dnr-i, the past year, and the new Co'nimi'.'J for this year will have as representativ] from the City, Aldermen Gilroy, m] Dougall, and Cockburn.
