ADDITIONAL INSTRUCTIONS 



FOR 



TRAVELLERS. 



THE preceding treatise having been written for 

 the use of collectors, superintendents of museums, 

 and artists, as well as travellers, I add the Instruc- 

 tions drawn up by the Professors of the Jardin du 

 Roi, at Paris, expressly for the use of the latter, to 

 whom they are gratuitously presented. I would 

 request this class of readers, to comprehend such 

 parts of the previous treatise of M. Dufresne, as are 

 given under the following titles. 



1st, The manner of collecting and preparing 

 objects of natural history. 



2dly, The method of packing them, and en- 

 abling them to arrive at their place of destination in 

 the best state possible. 



3dly, The nature of the notes which ought to 

 accompany these objects.
