Post Offiob Box 2882, 
We are prepnred to furnish the first sixty numbers 
of the first series of 
Animals and Birds of North America. 
To these will he added a second series of foreign speci- 
mens, and various Animals und Birds in grotesque ut- 
tl Hides, never however violating their natural instincts. 
We- offer these views not us pictures only, but as 
studies from nature. One of the great moving ele- 
ments in our modem system of education is object 
teaching. The unerring fidelity of the stereoscope 
transfers the animals und birds from their natural 
habitat to tile rooms of the student, and the llreslle of 
oar homes, where they cunnot fail to leave a lasting 
impression of the form, color, habits, and locality of 
each specimen. 
An experience of more than twenty -five years as 
Taxidermist of the New York Slate Cabinet of Nat- 
ural History, and in gathering Ills large collection of 
native and foreign specimens, enables Mr. Hurst to 
combine In every view the locality of the specimen 
with Its appropriate rocks, woods or water, mid color- 
ing from the originals.

1 ninst congratulate you upon your great success in 
this new educational enterprise. If we can arrange 
our amusements so as to make them impart instruc- 
tion to the miml, it will be a step m advance in edu- 
cation. EZRA CORNELL. 
Washington, D. March 18th, 1870.. 
I am much pleased with the snceeso you have met 
with in giving to the stuffed specimens u very decided 
appearance of life. 
1 hope you may be able to continue the Series, and 
I hive no doubt they will furnish Interesting meuns 
of information und instruction In regard to the wild 
animals of New York. SPENCER F. BAIRD. 
State House, Boston. Mass., March 18th, 1870, 
I have examined carefully the "Sleroecopic Studies 
of Natural History," und judging by the first ten num- 
bers, should say that they will prove of very great 
value, both us object lessons for students, and us a most 
Interesting suite for the purlor Stereoscope. The de- 
lineations, position, und color of the different groups 
and the general treatment are most perfect I cor- 
dially recommend them to the public attention and 
trust you will meet the encouragement which vou 
have earned. EDWARD A. SAMUEL 
Curator of Zoology iu Musb. State Cabinet. 
Peabody Academy or Science, I 
, , , Salem, Muss.. March mb, 1870, f 
I have shown your Stereoscopic views to the Direc- 
tors of the Academy and the editors of the American 
Naturalist, Dr. Packard and Mr. Morse 
They concur with me in praising their truthfulness 
and the taite which you have displayed In surround- 
ing the specimens with nniural objects and scenery of 
characteristic fitness. They are certainly better fitted 
not ouly os parlor uud drawingroom illustrations, but' 
as educational Illustrations for the use of schools and 
colleges, than anything we have yet seen.

I have received the Stereoscopic Views of objects in 
Natural History, aud have enjoyed them greatly. 
1 hev have surprised all who have seen them by their 
wonderful fidelity, both as regards the animals and 
their surroundings; mid I think they cau not fall to bo 
of great service to the study of Natural History first 
by attracting student# to It, and next by perfecting 
them lull ANDREW D. WHITE 8
