Abstract
THE Microscopical Society of London, now the Royal Microscopical Society, was founded in 1839, and it was proposed to celebrate its centenary this October with a special meeting. This function has been postponed for the present, but papers on the progress of microscopy during the last hundred years, contributed to celebrate the occasion, will be published in ensuing numbers of the Society's Journal.
