SIR THOMAS STAMFORD BAFFLES. 63 
atility to the cotintrjr gentlemen, my attention h 
more directed lo the ecientific department." The 
increase of zoological knowU'dge by the study of 
the living beings, llui introduction of auclt as might 
profe useful in onr manufactures or commerce, and 
the giving to the science popularity and general dif- 
fusion, %¥ere among the ciiief objects. The hopes v( 
establishing such a combination vvere crown^^tt with 
the utmost success in l!ie institution of the Zoologi- 
cal Society of London, We have not room to give 
all the plan, detail'*, and prospectus of the commence- 
ment of tlii-H now important iu'^titution, but it will be 
interesting, and perhaps wished for hy many, to see 
the names of those who were first associated with 
Sir Stamford in ita formation.
