Abstract
ON November 11, 1867, a meeting of about eighty chemists was held in Berlin to take steps for inaugurating a new Chemical Society. On January 13 of the succeeding year (1868) the first meeting of the Society was held, when Prof. A. W. Hofmann was elected president, and the roll call of the Society contained 105 names. During the first year of its existence 97 papers were read before the Society; at the close of the year the membership had increased to 275, and the Society found that a volume of 282 pages was needed to contain the papers communicated to it.
