It will be observed that the only noticeable items of 
decrease shown in this Table are those of Compositions in 
lieu of Annual Subscriptions and of Admissions to the 
Gardens. The former of these may be reasonably ac- 
counted for by the monetary crisis which prevailed in 
1866, and the latter by the bad weather during the end 
of the summer and autumn, which materially affected the 
number of visitors to the Society’s Gardens on ordinary 
days. These items of decrease are, however, outbalanced 
by the increase which took place in other heads of income, 
as will be seen on reference to the Table above given. 
It may be interesting here to note the great general 
improvement of the Income of the Society which has taken 
place during the last ten years :— 
Income of the Zoological Society of London.
