The Donations to the Menagerie 



have been too numerous to be particularized. They are re- 

 corded, with the other presents to the Society, in the Dona- 

 tion Book now on the table. The Council cannot, however, 

 abstain from adverting to the liberality of some of the cor- 

 respondents and friends of the Institution who have especi- 

 ally contributed to the increase of this department. To Sir 

 Thomas Reade, His Majesty's Consul-General at Tunis, 

 thanks are due for a pair of Lions, a pair of Ostriches, a 

 pair of Deer apparently distinct from the Red Deer, and a 

 Cervine or Bubal Antelope ; — to Mr. E. W. A. Drummond
