Excerpt from A Popular Catalogue of the Extraordinary Curiosities in the National Institute: Arranged in the Building Belonging to the Patent Office

But it may fill its ofice in many ways - it may call the attention of those at a distance to witness the specific nature and importance of the obj sets it enumerates and points out, or in some instances, an alyses and describes.

Even those on the spot will be reached by this principle and many who examine the Patent (mice will be attracted to the botanical collec tions at the foot of the Capitol; and those visiting the latter place will discover that it is part, thongh but a portion, of the results of Captain Wilkes' Expedition.
