10 
original water-colour drawings by Mr. Wolf, since the last 
Anniversary :— 
83. The Baleniceps (Baleniceps rez). 
84. The Persian Deer (Cervus wallichit). 
85. The Japanese Deer (Cervus sika). 
86. he young Ostrich (Struthio camelus). 
87. The Ashy-black Ape (Macacus ocreatus). 
The whole of these beautiful drawings are now, by the 
Cotincil’s permission, being exhibited to the public by 
Messis. Henry Graves and Co., of 6 Pall Mall, who have 
published a selection of them under the title of “ Zoolo- 
gical Sketches.” ‘The first volume of this work, which 
was planned and commenced sotne time ago, with the 
Couicil’s sanction, by the late Secretary, has been recently 
completed by the present Secretary, and it is hoped will 
serve as well to call public attention to the many rare and 
noble animals exhibited from time to time in the Society’s 
Menagerie, as to preserve such a faithful record of their 
living characters as may be useful for scientific purposes.
