Excerpt from Essays on Museums: And Other Subjects Connected With Natural History Having lately, during an enforced period of restraint from active occupation, had leisure to look back upon the events of a somewhat busy life, it occurred to me that besides the administration, in succession, of two large public museums, and some original scientific investigation, the results of which can be of interest only to the very few, there have been occa sions which have involved a contact with wider and more varied circles. Though the records of these occasions have doubtless been mainly of passing or local concern, it is possible that some thing may be found among them worth placing in a more accessible and permanent form than in the scattered journals or pamphlets in which they can only be found at present.
