But the best specimen of an Albino that has 
ever come to my notice, is to be seen in the 
window of Mr. H. Krueger’s gun store of this 
city, in the shape of an almost pure Albino 
Mallard which was killed by H. Rippe on Oct. 
last near this place. 
The general color is a pure snow white with 
the exception of a few traces of brown on the 
breast, and light gray marking on the back, the 
top and sides of head are the normal color of a 
? Mallard, the wings show slight greenish 
reflections in the proper place, the tail is also 
slightly mottled with dark. I was unable to 
find out the sex, but think it is a female.
