GENERAL INFORMATION. 
Australian, African and Indian arrivals are conspicuous by their absence. A few South American Parrots have certainly arrived. 
Australian and African small Finches are most eagerly sought for, the few specimens now changing hands are private property and 
command good prices. Small animals in general are unsaleable. Monkeys, however, are scarce. I have only sold fifty Baboons 
and Monkeys the last four weeks, whereas in normal times I should have disposed of three hundred. It had been my intention for 
some time past to pay a visit to the principal French Seaports with a view of purchasing small stock in general, but the formalities, 
restrictions, and delays are unbearable, being not conducive to good temper or quick travelling. 
American Consignments. — Never have I had so much trouble in obtaining American stock as at the present time. 
Grey Squirrels. — My collector in the States has forwarded me the rules of the Conservation law, which are as follows : — 
Black and Grey Squirrels — I. Open Season. Black and grey squirrels may be taken and possessed from September sixteenth 
to October thirty-first, both inclusive, except on Long Island, where they may be taken and possessed from November first to 
December thirty-first, both inclusive. No person shall take black or grey squirrels within the corporate limits of any city or 
village. 2. Limit. A person may take five such squirrels, either all of one kind or partly of each, in one day. Consequently 
my clients must wait until September. 
Horseshoe Crabs cannot be caught and shipped before July. Price 40/6. Skunks. — Forty were promised, but only twenty so 
far are ready for shipment. Snakes and Gila Monsters are at last on the way ; particulars on application. Californian 
Sea Lions.— Six beautiful specimens left New York on the 7th inst., and should arrive here about the I5th June. Price £30 
each. Two already sold to arrive. I have the assurance of the only Catcher, that there will be no other shipment to Europe 
this year. The Polar Bear and two adult Lions are sold.
