Excerpt from List of the Objects Obtained During the Paris Exhibition of 1867, by Gift, Loan, or Purchase, and Now Exhibited in the South Kensington Museum Mr. Webb, whom your Grace had associated with us, was unable to come to Paris, but we have had the benefit of a list of such specimens as he recommended.
