FINANCIAL CONDITION—BINDING FUND.

The Treasurer's report shows the receipts of the year into the General Fund, including the small balance of the previous year, to have been $5,001.87; and the disbursements, $4,987.62, leaving a balance of $14.25.

The Binding Fund has received but two donations during the year—one of forty dollars, to complete the payment of a pledge of fifty dollars, from Hon. G.W. Bradford; and one of twenty dollars from the Rev. R.M. Hodges, D.D.,—his fifth annual contribution of that amount; both of these generous friends of the Society, residing beyond our borders are numbered among our Honorary Vice Presidents, and have attained the venerable age of four score years. Would that their example might provoke others to similar acts of benevolence.

Duplicate books sold during the year have amounted to $329.70; accrued interest, $295.23; annual membership dues, net $47.05;— thus showing an addition of $731.98, and making the total present amount of this important fund, $4,800.41.

The section of land, on the western borders of Texas, set apart for this Fnd by teh late Hon. John Catlin, has not yet become marketable; and several years may elapse before its sale can be judiciously effected, owing to the liability of that exposed frontier to raids of plundering parties of Mexicans and Indians. This thoughtful provision on the part of Mr. Catlin, who made the first contribution to this Fund, in 1867, will eventually prove quote a creditable addition to this important object. His worthy relict, Mrs. Catlin, manifests an anxious solicitude to carry into effect this long cherished purpose of her departed husband.

This binding fund is a matter of too much importance to the Society, its Library and its thousands of readers, to languish for want of interest. Ten years have elapsed since this fund was commenced, and during all this time we had necessarily to draw upon the General Fund for the very scant amount of binding we have been forced to procure. Our twenty-five thousand unbound pamphlets, and large accumulations of unbound manuscripts, books, reviews and magazines, need to be properly bound alike for their better preservation, and convenience for reference purposes. A little earnest effort would, doubtless, secure sufficient pledges, payable annually, for five successive years, without interest, to render this Fund adequate to the object in view; so that, only using its income, it would ever after prove a permanent source of usefulness to the Society.

LIBRARY ADDITIONS.

During the past year, the Library additions have been 2.826 volumes, of which 1,482 were acquired by purchase, 600 by donation

Of the book additions, 175 volumes were folios, 91 quatros; increasing the number of folios in the Library to 2,389, and the quatros to2,949, and both to 5,338.

Total ......... 203 vols.

Twenty-seven volumes of these newspaper additions pertain to the last century - the richest addition, of that period, the Society has ever made in a single year; making the total of the 17th century 62 vols.; of the 18th, 361; of the present century, 2,247 grand total, 2,670.

The number of periodicals now received by the Society is 195, three less than last year; of which 3 are published quarterly, 12 monthly, 168 weekly, 2 semi-weekly, and 10 daily. Of these, 166 are published in Wisconsin, evincing the continued interest of the editors and publishers of our State in this invaluable department of historical literature. About fifty years of unbound papers, mostly of Milwaukee, from 1845 to 1875, have been received from the estate of the late Dr. I. A. Lapham - valuable for the completion of the Society's Wisconsin files; and from the same source, the Society is largely indebted for a generous donation of books and pamphlets. Fifty-four volumes of unbound papers, of various years, from 1809 to 1875, have been received, on exchange account, from the Boston Public Library. Other serials have been received, and laid aside for binding.

To the Map and Atlas Department have been added: Ohio County Atlases of Ashland, Butler, Champaign, Clark, Crawford, Guernsey, Licking, Logan, Medina, Morrow, Muskingum, Ottawa, Richland and Shelby; Historical Atlas of the Globe, including Atlas of Wood Co. Ohio; Anderson's Map of Ohio, 1841, on rollers; Doolittle & Munson's Map of Ohio, 1838, on rollers; Map of Lo

raine Co., Ohio, on rollers; Map of Wyandott Co., Ohio, on rollers; Map of America, 1722, sheet form, folio; De Lisle's Map of Louisiana, 1718, sheet form; De Lisle's Map of Canada and New France, 1703, sheet form; Map of Louisiana and the Mississippi river, 1718, folio, sheet form; Bradley's Map of the United States, 1804 - these obtained by purchase. Miscellaneous state and other maps, some in sheets and some in covers, from Dr. Lapham's estate, 52 in number; Australian map, in sheet form, from Hon. S. D. Hastings; mounted map of Eau Claire, from the cit of Eau Claire, per R. F. Wilson; Keeler's National Map of United States Territories, from Hon. S. D. Hastings; maps and views accompanying message and documents of third session of 34th Congress, from Hon. S. D. Hastings; map and profile of Erie Canal, 1817, from Charles Lapham; map of the U.S., 1876, on rollers, purchased. These additions, seventy-two in number increase the Maps and Atlases to 648.

These additions of the year have been most important; secured among other sources, from the rich collections of Hon. Thos. H. Field and the late Samuel G. Drake - the largest ever made on Indian history and literature; and also from the collections of the late Hon. Thomas H. Wynne, of Virginia, and Capt. Wm. F. Goodwin, of New Hampshire, both efficiently connected with the Historical Societies of their respective States. These four rich collections, thrown upon the market, enabled our Society to secure many rare and important works, serving to fill up many a gap in our several departments.

Our newspaper files have received an unusually large increase - many invaluable ones of the last century, from 1720 to 1794, most of which it would be impossible to duplicate. Our department of Directories, so important in tracing names for genealogical purposes, has received a large acquisition; and the same may be said of our Indian and American historical departments, as well as our collections on Science, Bibliography, Genealogy, Magazines, and Re-

views, State Documents, Maps and Atlases. The valuable work on Wilkes' Exploring Expedition, with all its illustrative maps and drawings, finds a fitting place in our library, transferred from the Executive Rooms, through Gov. Ludington's courtesy and kindness. Mr. Durrie's fine contribution of six unpublished folio volumes on Wisconsin history and topography, deserves, as it should receive, a special recognition.
