additions since the last Anniversary Meeting of the Society, 
and the number of animals of every description, particularly 
that of the larger mammals, has been considerably aug- 
mented. The usual census taken at the end of the year 
1862 showed a total increase of 334 in the number of 
specimens of Mammals, Birds, and Reptiles exhibited, as 
compared with the corresponding number on the 31st of 
December 1861, as the following Table will show :—
