REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES OF THE , FOR THE YEAR ENDING 31 DECEMBER, 1865. To Hls ExcELLENCY THE GoVEB.Nox-IN-CBIEF. &c. &c, &c. 1. The Trustees of the Australian Museum have the honor to submit to your Excellency this their Twelfth Annual Report. 2. The Museum has been open to the public daily (Sundays excepted) during the past year, and has been visited by 67,271 pereons. 8. The system of exchanging specimens of natural history with the principal Foreign is still maintained by the Trustees, who have received several valuable collections during the past year, a list of which is appended. (Appendiz No. 2.) 4. Numerous donations have been received during the year, a list of which ie appended. (.A.ppendia: No. 3.) 5. In Appendix No. 4, will be found a list of the various objects sent in exchange, together with the names of the persons or institutions to '\'hich they have been trans­ mitted. 6. Several valuable works, purchased out of the Endowment Ftmd, have been added to the Museum Library, a list of which is appended. (.A.ppendi:e No. 5.) 7. Two experienced Taxidermists have been occupied during the year in preparing and mounting the following specimens :- 27 mammals, 221 birds, 20 reptiles and fishes, 15 skeletons of mammals and birds,- and in cleaning, and preserving from decay, the collection already displayed for public inspection. 8. The Tl'\llltees have to record the resignation of Sprott Boyd, Esq., M.D., the retirement of the Rev. John Woolley, D.C.L., and of Colonel E. W . Ward, R.E., from the Board. The vacancies thus occasioned have beeu filled, by the election of Professor Smith, M.D., James C. Cox, Esq., M.D., and the Honorable Sir William Macarthur, M.L.C. 9. The Trustees have to report the sale of nearly 2,000 copies of the first part of their Catalogue (comprising the Mammals) during the year, n.ud the necessity of a new and enlarged edition of this publication. 20-A The 2 AUSTRALIAN MUSEUM.

The second part will contain the Birds, the first family of which (Raptores) is completed, and ready for the press. Of this section, the Museum contains now- 32 genera, 64 species, and 200 specimens. Part III, comprising the Reptiles, is also finished, shewing that this class is represented by- 224 genera, 426 species, and 1,356 specimeilll. 10. The large number of additional specimens, which have been obtained by the Truttees during the course of the year, has in,•olved a <'Onsiderable outlay for cabinets, which, though distributed witlt a. view to the utmost economy of room, have now almost completely filled the hall and gallery, and havo aeriously encroached upon the apace required for the unimpeded circulatiou of visitors. Tho Trustees, nevertheless, feel it necessary that further accommodation should be provided, for the purpose of preserving and arranging their rapidly increasing stores; and they would, therefore, draw the attention of your Excellency to the fact, that the sum of £1,000 was voted by the Legislature towards the 1ittings of the new MUlleum, and desire to suggest that this aum, or a portion of the same, be placed at their disposal, at as early a date as may be convenient. The additional cabinets which the Trustees would thus be able to provide, while constructed with a view to their ultimata exhibition in tho new building, might for the preaent be arranged, without detriment, in parts of the Museum which a.re not acces.~ible to the general public. 11. By the exertions of Mr. George Mastel'll, the Assistant Curator, a large number of Australian specimens has been obtained, particularly of animals peculiar to South and the West Coast, a list of which is appended. (A.ppendi:e No. 6.) 12. A collection illustrating the \'arious deposits encountered in sinking for gold in New South Wales, and the character of the gold thus obtained, accompanied by 197·11 ounces of gold, has been received by the Trustees from the Acting Deputy Maeter of the Royal Mint, and is now on view in the hall. 13. The Trustees also report that, at the request of Mrs. Wise, they have taken charge of the valuable and highly interesting library of Australian books collected by the late Mr. Justice Wise, and bequeathed by him to tho Freo Library of , a. catalogue of which is appended. (A.ppendi<& No. 7.) 14. Appendi."t No 1 contains an abstract of the receipts and payments of the Trustees, on behalf of the Museum, for the yenr ending 31st December, 1865. 15.
