702 THE PHOTOGRAPHIC NEWS. [November 2, 1883. paper, as mentioned in this week’s journal, and with what re sults ? ” None of the members present had used it, but Mr. T. Annan said that Mr. Bruce, of Duns, had used it for many years, and with great success. The TREASTEER then read his report for the session 1882-83, which showed that the income, including balance from last session of £9 17s. 8d., had been £35 Os. 2d. The expenditure was £19 4s. lid., leaving a balance on hand of £15 15s. 3d. Councillor Robertson, in a few words, in which he thanked the treasurer (Mr. Bell) for the conscientious manner in which he had fulfilled the duties of treasurership during the fifteen years he had held that office, moved the adoption of the report, which was seconded by Mr. Hume, and agreed to. The Chairman then called upon Mr. Norman Macbeth, R.S. A., to read his paper entitled “ Sky Shade to Secure Foreground and Clouds in the same Negative.” This paper has already been published, and need not now be commented upon. A number of very fine prints by Mr. Parker, illustrating the action of the shade, were then handed round. Mr. Parker said that in doing these views he had used Wratten and Wainwright’s slow plates, and also that when using it the exposure required to be about twice as long Mr. McLear said that he considered the combination of cloud and landscape in one negative to be a great stride in landscape photography. He said that he had seen Mr. Sam Bough, R.S.A., in painting some of his pictures, paint the sky first, and then, in painting the picture, he adapted the lighting of the foreground to suit the cloud. Several other members spoke, and expressed their satisfaction with the shade. Mr. Lang asked how he could procure such a shade, as Mr. Macbeth’s ? Mr. Macbeth said he would leave his shade with the secretary, so that any of the members might get it fora pattern. The Chairman then called upon Mr. Macbeth to read his second paper on a “ Ferrous Oxalate Developer.” Mr. Macbeth then exhibited several negatives by this developer, which seemed highly satisfactory. He also exhibited a number of interesting prints. Mr. Parker asked him to explain why his prints were so red in tone. Mr. Macbeth replied that no toning bath had been used in the preparation of these prints ; he disliked the ordinary tone of photographs very much, they were so cold and blue and photo graphic looking. He much preferred the beautiful rich brown, he obtained by merely washing the prints with water, and then fixing in the hypo bath for not more than five minutes. Mr. T. Annan asked whether he used an old fixing bath, as very rich sepia tones can be obtained by so doing. Mr. Macbeth said he always prepared a new bath when the old one began to colour. One of the prints he showed was rather a curiosity. The plate was exposed and developed in the usual manner, but instead of being a negative it turned out a positive perfect in every respect; the subject was a sandy beach, on which a number of children were playing. Mr. Lang said it might be the result of hypo getting into his oxalate develeoper. Mr. Macbeth said this could not be in this case, as he had developed another plate at the same time. He expressed his desire to know the experience of the members in regard to oxalate developer. Mr. Lang said he had used Capt. Abney’s ferro-citric-oxalate with great success. It was too slow for professionals ; he had developed a plate for an hour and a half, and at the end of that time got a good negative. Councillor Robertson then proposed a vote of thanks to Mr. Macbeth for his papers, and to Mr. Parker for his readiness in giving his invention to the Society and to the public generally. This was heartily accorded. Mr. McLear then proposed a, vote of thanks to the treasurer for the conscientious manner in which he had fulfilled his duty as shown by his report. This was also heartily accorded. Manchester Photographic Society. The annual meeting of this Society was held at the Manchester Technical Schools, on Thursday, the 11th ult., Mr. John W. Leigh, President, in the chair. The minutes of the previous meeting were read and passed. The Annual Report was then read, followed by the Balance Sheet, of which a copy was given to each member. Annual Seport. “ This is the twenty-eighth annual meeting of this Society, and your Council have great pleasure in congratulating you upon the great success of the year, now ebbing away. “ If we have not added quite so many new members as we did in the previous year, we have fewer resignations to record. Our present numerical strength is 113 against 104 last year. “ It is very satisfactory to find the average attendance at our meetings has increased to 51 this year, against 46 J last year ; and although we cannot boast of an advance in the number of papers read before the Society, we are able with pleasure to reflect upon the general interest that has pervaded our gatherings. “ One of the principal events of the year was a most successful exhibition, in November last, of the work of our members, and illustrated the great progress which has been made amongst us, showing how much art can lend itself to the pleasures of holiday rambles. “ At our December meeting a lantern exhibition was given, at which over three hundred slides, produced from the negatives of our members, were thrown upon the large screen. In this fasci nating branch of photography great strides in progress were manifest, and the exhibition closed with a large collection of slides by York, Woodbury, and others. “ Next, we had a sale by auction of the apparatus of members. This was more successful than ever contemplated. “ Mr. G. J. Johnson read a most interesting paper on photo micrography. He exhibited the apparatus he had devised for this special work, and also a series of slides of microscopic objects. “ Amongst other matters, instantaneous shutters and pictures taken by their aid have been exhibited and discussed. “ Mr. Openshaw gave a very interesting demonstration of the platinotype manipulation. “ Mr. John Schofield gave an account of how he made gelatino- bromide enlargements, and showed the apparatus he used. “ Mr. A. Coventry exhibited his new drying-box, and gave some highly-appreciated hints on the manufacture of gelatino- bromide plates. Whilst Messrs. Smith, Greatorex, McKellen, and many others have always had plenty of novelties in appa ratus to exhibit, Messrs. Leigh, Coote, Pollitt, and others have come forward with abundant results of their labours in other ways. “ Before concluding this restrospective survey of our proceed ings, we must acknowledge the success of our out-door meetings. Of the whole twelve meetings arranged, only one has fallen through. Most of the others have been well attended, and in every case proved enjoyable to those present. “ Now last, but not least, we have a word or two to say upon our financial status. Perhaps not in the annals of this Society has there been such a balance in its favour ; for, notwithstanding the calls that have been made upon our exchequer, and the number of outstanding subscriptions, we have a larger balance than ever. “ And now, in resigning our respective offices, we must again congratulate you upon the sound basis, not only of the finan cial and general working, but the harmonious feeling which seems to characterise the whole of our proceedings.” Dr. Bahin, moved, and Rev. H. V. Macdona seconded, that the report be accepted, which was carried. i . The next business was the election of officers for the ensuing year, resulting as follows: — ^’resident—Mr. Pollitt. Vice-Presidents—The Rev. Canon Beechy, Alfred Brothers, E. Openshaw, John Warburton, John Schofield, and Dr. Bahin. Council—S. D. McKellen, Joseph Greatorex, R. Atherton, W. Broughton, J. T. Chapman, John Chadwick, Thomas Sefton, S. F. Flowers, A. Coventry, and John Kershaw. Hon. Treasurer—W. G. Coote. Hon. Sec.—W. J. Chadwick. Whilst the voting papers were being arranged, the Chairman called attention to the albums and portfolios of the Society, and particularly to the new question-box. These proved objects of great interest to many new members who had not seen them before. The Chairman acknowledged the receipt of a packet of complimentary tickets from the President of the Photographic Society of Great Britain, to view the exhibition now open in Pall Mall, and these were distributed to those members who thought they might be able to avail themselves of the opportunity. Mr. S. D. McKellen called attention to a few splendid pictures—views in Derbyshire—he had taken recently by means
