By Captain T. Broun, F.E.S. 2. “New Species of Coleoptera, Part I.,” by Captain T. Broun. 3. “Is it expedient to make Vaccination compulsory?” by R. H. Bakewell, M.D. (Transactions, p. 634.) Dr. Challinor Purchas considered that vaccination should be retained and be made compulsory; but he was not an advocate for the transference of lymph from the human subject. By using calf-lymph, which could now be easily obtained in New Zealand, the risk of the inoculation of syphilis or leprosy alluded to by Dr. Bakewell could be obviated.
