The Committee of the Sussex Archaeological Society have much gratification in distributing the second volume of their Collections among their members, and they hope that its contents will be found such as to maintain the character of the Society and to advance its objects. The Society has continued its meetings with success, and has increased the number of its members, among whom will be found many names eminent in antiquarian literature. The financial position of the Society being also favorable, the Committee feel encouraged in the belief that the publication of these contributions to the better knowledge of the History and Antiquities of Sussex is the best employment of the funds at their disposal, while mutual concert is also well promoted by the General Meetings of the members at different places in the county. Although they are sensible of the advantages which would result from establishing a permanent depository for books and antiquarian objects within the county, yet they do not feel warranted at present in recommending what might prove a source of much expense.
It is with much satisfaction that the Committee have observed the announcement of several works, having in view the same objects as the Society, but intended to be published independently, and they are disposed to attribute to the influence of the Society this beneficial result.
