Mr Hargreaves wrote tendering his resignation, and stating that he would forward a subscription of £3 towards the funds of the institution. Mr Ollivier submitted a draft or sketch of a programme for the proposed concert in aid of the Association, and it was pronounced to be highly satisfactory. Some discussion as to details in connection with the performance, such as price of admission, &c, was entered into, and it was decided to defer the matter for a time, and to leave the general arrangements in the hands of Mr Ollivier, who bad already done so much towards insuring a successful issue.
