Extract

Having received from Sir Charles Hartley an interesting record of the works executed for the improvement of the Danube, to be presented to one of the Public Libraries in Edinburgh, I think its fittest destination is the Royal Society; and, on behalf of Sir Charles Hartley, I have to present the volumes on the table for the Society's acceptance.

It may not be uninteresting, in presenting these books, to describe, in a very few sentences, the work that has been executed for the improvement of the Danube, and the results that have been obtained.
