MUSEUM AND COLLECTIONS. 
Although the additions to the collections have not been as numerous as in 
some preceding years, their value has been considerable, as consisting princi- 
pally of new material from comparatively little known portions of America. 
A detailed list of donations and additions to the museum will be found at the 
end of the present report. The following are the principal regions and sources 
from which collections have been received. i 
Arctic America.—Very large collections of mammals, birds, eggs, &c., made 
in the northern parts of British America during 1863 and 1864, and filling 
29 cases, reached Fort Garry iu September last, and were forwarded to St. Paul, 
but arrived there after navigation had closed. ‘They are now on their way to 
Washington by wagon and railroad, and are expected to arrive in a few weeks. 
They embrace many species not previously received from the north, and were 
collected principally by Messrs. MacFarlane, Lockhart, Jones, Sibbiston, Gau- 
det, Flett, Reid, Mactavish, Gunn, &c., already well known from repeated men- 
tion in previous reports. A full account of the collection will, it is hoped, be 
presented in the report for 1865.
