  and 
  the 
  extent 
  to 
  wliicli 
  the 
  Commission 
  by 
  satisfying 
  

   that 
  demand 
  has 
  enabled 
  the 
  people 
  of 
  the 
  State 
  to 
  enter 
  

   upon 
  the 
  important 
  work 
  of 
  cultivating 
  this 
  valuable 
  

   fish, 
  may 
  be 
  ascertained 
  in 
  part 
  by 
  a 
  perusal 
  of 
  the 
  fol- 
  

   lowing 
  tables, 
  which 
  show 
  only 
  the 
  distribution 
  made 
  

   under 
  my 
  immediate 
  direction, 
  a 
  large 
  additional 
  num- 
  

   ber 
  having 
  been 
  turned 
  over 
  to 
  my 
  colleague, 
  Col. 
  Hugh- 
  

   lett, 
  for 
  distribution 
  in 
  his 
  neighborhood 
  and 
  

   not 
  being 
  included 
  in 
  this 
  statement. 
  As 
  the 
  supply 
  of 
  

   Leather 
  Carp 
  was 
  considerably 
  smaller 
  than 
  that 
  of 
  the 
  

   Scale 
  Carp, 
  I 
  secured 
  from 
  the 
  U. 
  S. 
  Commission 
  a 
  num- 
  

   ber 
  of 
  the 
  first 
  named 
  variety 
  ; 
  and 
  sixteen 
  hundred 
  

   (1600) 
  of 
  these, 
  as 
  well 
  as 
  two 
  thousand 
  Scale 
  

   Carp 
  from 
  the 
  ponds 
  at 
  Druid 
  Hill 
  Park, 
  were 
  turned 
  

   over 
  to 
  Col. 
  Hughlett 
  to 
  supply 
  the 
  wants 
  of 
  those 
  who 
  

   had 
  applied 
  directly 
  to 
  him 
  :
