IN the course of this work will be comprised the 

 whole of what is termed Zoologv, or the History of 

 the Animal World. It will commence with Quadru- 

 peds, and will proceed, in systematic order, through 

 all the remaining branches, viz. Birds, Amphibia, 

 Fishes, Insects, Vermes, Testaceous Animals, Zoo- 

 phytes s §c. The number of volumes will probably 

 amount to ten or twelve. 



The Linncean arrangement, with some occasional 

 variations, will in general be pursued, as on the 

 whole the most eligible; though his arrangement of 

 Quadrupeds may to many appear, at first sight, not 

 quite so easy and natural as that of Mr. Pennant.
