PREFACE.

WING to unavoidable circumstances, the usual annual volume of Afternoon Lectures was not published in the year 1867.

The present volume, being the fifth published by the Committee, contains the greater number of the Dublin Afternoon Lectures, delivered during the years 1867 and 1868, a few only omitted which, in the interval between their delivery and the publication of this volume, had appeared in the form of articles in various periodicals, or were incorporated in works published by their respective authors.

The Committtee beg to offer their thanks to the Gentlemen who have contributed Lectures to this Volume, and also to the authorities of the Royal College of Science, S. Stephen's Green, who kindly gave the use of their Theatre for the Afternoon Lectures of the present and the former years.
