In concluding this Report the Council feel gratified in calling the attention of the Society to the fact that among the new Subscriptions received during the past year is one from the Library of Congress at Washington. At a moment of so much anxiety in reference to the public relations between Great Britain and the United States, it is delightful to notice this honourable proof of the interest felt by America in the progress of our historical studies. English history is, indeed, a branch of literature in which both countries have a peculiar and a common interest. Descended from common ancestors, Great Britain and America ought ever to unite to keep alive the memory of the great and good deeds of forefathers in whose glories they both participate.
