By DR. B. H. WARKEN. State ZooloyUt. 



Tliis great commercial highway of the nation, with 

 branches penetrating almost every county in Penn- 

 sylvania, New Jersey, Delaware and Maryland — the 

 Pennsylvania Railroad — reaches every section of this 

 territory where the best of the present gunning and 

 llshing may be found, fro^m the bays and harbors of the 

 matchless Jersey coast with their famous fishing 

 grounds, and the islands and inlets of the Chesapeake 

 Pay with their acres of wild ducks, to the mountain 

 wildernesses of Clinton, Clearfield, Elk and Cameron 

 counties with their ideal trout streams, their deer 

 rjuiges, and their shaggy-coated Bears and predatory 

 ^^'ild Cats. Covering such a vast and diversiCcd terri- 

 tory, and affording conveniences and comforts of 

 travel unsurpassed by any other railroad in the world, 

 it holds out peculiar inducements to the gunner, the 

 angler, and tc- the naturalist in search of knowledge, 

 specimens or sport, and recreation.
