THIS bulky octavo volume forms No. 12 of the miscellaneous publications of the Department of the Interior, United States Geological and Geographical Survey of the Territories, which is under the charge of F. V. Hayden. It is a most important contribution to the life-history of the species of American Pinnipeds, for which the zoologist as well as the merchant may well thank both Mr. Hayden and Mr. Allen.
