Lectures on Meteorology

MOST people conversant with the subject will agree with ``Spes'' (vol. xiii., p. 169) that meteorology should now be considered as much a separate science as mineralogy or geology, and be taught as such; but I would suggest whether without waiting for the foundation of special chairs in the colleges, immediate steps might not be taken with advantage to bring it before the class of persons not usually to be found in colleges, to whom it is of essential importance, by means of the Science and Art Department Organisation.
