Many of these are very good specimens, and new to our 

 collection, but as must always happen, a large number of them 

 were already in the Herbarium, and these duplicates are, there- 

 fore, reserved for further exchange when possible. 



Parcels of dried and named specimens of our indigenous 

 plants have been sent away as under : —

Some of these are in payment for specimens already received, 

 and for the remainder we expect receive an equivalent during 

 the season. 



The number of specimens in stock has increased from 19,919, 

 as stated in my last report to 22,057, of w T bich 7,773 are South 

 African, and 14,884 from other countries, an increase of 2,728 

 sheets. At the commencement of the year our 26 Cabinets 

 were already fairly well filled, and when the new specimens 

 arrived and were mounted, accommodation had to be found for 

 them, 4 new Cabinets were therefore purchased, and these are 

 now nearly filled, more Cabinets will be required during the 

 present year, and unfortunately the room will only bold 4 

 more, leaving room for the ordinary work to be carried on, so 

 that it will very soon be necessary to provide additional space, 

 or the additions to the Herbarium will perforce have to cease, 

 but it is to be hoped that means will be found to overcome this 

 difficulty.
