r36 CONCLUSION. 



there is a patch of a deeper tint of the same colour upon the 

 middle of the under part of the body. The sides are black, 

 and the tail white. 



Although many other creatures besides those which have 

 been described are to be found in the vast regions we have 

 rambled over, none of the larger or more curious have been 

 omitted. We have, however, been able to take only a very 

 cursory glance at the human inhabitants or the wonders of 

 the vegetable kingdom ; but it is hoped that the reader will 

 have gained a general and correct view of the various aspects 

 which the wilder portions of the Western World present, | 

 well as of the animals with which the Creator, in his infinite 

 wisdom, has thought fit to people them. 



Quitting America, we purpose, in future volumes, to 

 wander over the Eastern portions of the globe, the islands of 

 the Pacific, Australasia, and -the Indian Archipelago, and to 

 visit the Arctic and Antarctic regions, where numberless 

 objects are to be found, not less interesting and wonderful 

 than those described in the preceding pages.
