This institute has been struggling along with much
difficulty the small amount OF income enjoyed by it being
scarcely sufficient to pay for the freight and transportation
of the valuable books objects of art and natural his
tory il has been, from time 10 me receiving Indeed
considerable amount of these must remain abroad until
some means of paying the expenses of transportation
devised The groundwork of creditable scientific in
stituon has been formed, somewhat similar to those
which the governments OF most European States support
The establishment of different institution at Washing
does not do away with the necessity of like that

exhibits, in voumnous correspondence the wide scope
of the institute Communications have been received from
distinguished abroad and at home, and cit-
zens travelling residing abroad, have communicated
information relative to the introduction of certain useful
grains and plants into the United States Among the do

Hong Kong, China, the cultivation and manufacture
of various articles suited to this country
This number OF the Bulletin closes with the elaborate
and excellent report OF Dr. c. Reinhardt, naturalist
under Captain Percival on board the Constitution in lis
recent voyage around the world Much useful nforma-
ton given upon the commerce, productions, and
features of different countries and various seeds and
specimens, in nature and art, were collected. Eleven
