The Council of the Royal Zoological Society of Ireland desire to call the attention of the Members, and of the public generally, to the financial condition of the Society. Owing to the advance in the prices of Coals and Provisions, the expenditure has increased so much, that the Council find it impossible to maintain the Gardens efficiently without a corresponding increase in their income. The Council estimate that an additional income of about £500 per annum is absolutely requisite for the maintenance of the Gardens in a manner creditable to the City of Dublin. The Council would call attention to the fact, that while the receipts from Visitors to the Gardens have increased about £500 per annum within the last ten years, showing the increasing attractions of the Gardens, the annual Subscriptions have remained almost stationary during the same period. An appeal is therefore made to the Members of the Society to exert themselves to procure new Members and Subscribers, or to aid the resources of the Society by donations. Forms of application for Membership are enclosed herewith. By order of the Council. SAMUEL HAUGHTON, Secretary. ZOOLOGICAL GARDENS, PHOENIX PARK, DUBLIN, February, 1874.
