collections during the voyage, including also the Collector’s 
Salary for the past year, was £423 13s. 9d., which sum 
will be found charged against the Society under the head 
of Extraordinary Expenses for 1861. This amount is ob- 
viously considerably exceeded by the value of the animals 
thus obtained. 
Although Sir George Grey has now left the Cape 
Colony, his place has been taken by a gentleman who 
kindly promises to continue to the Society and their 
Collector the assistance afforded by his predecessor. And 
the Council have great hopes that, under the patronage of 
the present Governor, H.E. Philip E.Wodehouse, Mr. Ben- 
stead will be successful in the effort he is now making to 
procure a young African Elephant, and several other fine 
animals, which have long been desiderata to the Menagerie. 
The following species of animals added to the Society’s 
collection since the last Anniversary were new to the 
Menagerie.
