212 Proceedings of the Asiatic Society. 



• 



P. S. The large amount of duplicates that have accumulated during the last 

 few months, have for the most part been distributed in collections now ready to be 

 forwarded to the Hon'ble Company's Museum, to that of the Christiania University, 

 that of the Society of Arts and Sciences, &c. of Boston, United States, and that of 

 the Manchester Institution. 



I have the pleasure also of presenting, on my own account, some purchased 

 specimens of rare Himalayan mammalia and birds, of species which I have long 

 required for examination and frequent reference. 



For all the above communications and donations the thanks of the 

 Asiatic Society were unanimously voted.
