Excerpt from Proceedings of the New York Historical Society, 1847 The Executive Committee have the honor to submit their Annual Report of the proceedings of the Society; and in rendering an account of their trust, after another year of prosperous exertion, they find new cause for congratulation, and additional motives of encouragement to a vigorous prosecution of the labors in which the Society is engaged. The regular series of monthly meetings has been well sustained throughout the year, and the simple announcement of subjects interesting to the lovers of history for discussion, has been sufficient to fill the rooms of the Society on each occasion. The Committee see much to commend in these meetings, hitherto so agreeable and instructive, which afford to members and their guests the opportunity of meeting on an interesting ground of investigation, valuable in its social as well as in its literary and historical aspect.

Excerpt from Proceedings of the New York Historical Society: Annual Meeting, January 2, 1849 The correspondence with the members of the Society and with the officers of the United States army in Mex ico, was the means of awakening an interest among that distinguished body of men in the subjects which occupy the attention of the Society, and has resulted in valuable contributions to, and deposits in, its cabinet. The arti cles so contributed and deposited are antiquities of the ancient Mexicans, including weapons of war, household and agricultural utensils, idols, etc. From the same sources have been received dresses, weapons and other articles belonging to some of the aboriginal tribes with which we have but little intercourse. These are objects of interest and curiosity, and render the cabinet of the Society alike attractive to the antiquary and the ethnolo gist. From Don Alonzo Manuel Peon, of Yucatan, some antiquities from that interesting country have also been received. The Foreign Corresponding Secretary cannot but ex press the great obligations the Society owes to its late associate and member, John R. Brodhead, Esq., Secre tary of the United States Legation ln London, for the very valuable communications transmitted by him to the Society, and to Dr. Campbell, Librarian at the Hague, for similar communications. These several papers the Executive Committee has determined to print in the second part of the new volume of the Society's Collee tions, and they are now in the hands of the printer for that purpose. A letter from Mr. Brodhead, transmitting another paper from Dr. Campbell, which has been translated by Mr. Brodhead, received since the last meeting of the Society.
