MIDDLE-SIZED BLACK MONKEY. 
On the chin is a small beard. The colour o 
the whole upper part of the body, and the out- 
side of the limbs, is a mixture of dusky yellovs 
and green ; the lower part is white, tinged wit? 
yellow. The tail is very long and slender 
above, of an olive colour ; beneath, cinereous, 
The paws are black. It's length is about a 
foot; and that of the tail, one foot five inches. 
It seems to us, as well from this description, as 
from a comparative view with BufFon's figure? 
that few Monkeys differ more from each other. 
Nor can we agree with that great naturalist — 
at least, on contemplating his print of the 
Talapoin-— that ** though the size of this 
Monkey be small, it's figure- is beautiful." It 
is, in truth, so disagreeable an obje6^:, that wc 
cannot persuade ourselves to adopt it in this 
colle6lion, as we certainly could have wished 
to do. We must procure a better specimen of 
the Talapoin Monkey, before we can intro-
