Nt, where they may. be seen by tWpuliic. Dr Moorhouse's bigtwelve pointer is the principail attraction in the group. The bay ones are good, and thebro-vn ones are abnormally /heavy. The Mo:i H. F. Wigram's fourteen pointer will also be admired. Mr Bes wick's eleven pointer is a fine head, with a great spread, which makes a bow. His f Miller deer head is notable on acoount of the fact that it is a typical Nelson head, and is believed indeed to have belonged to a stag obtained from Nelson, and liberated in the Rakaia by the Canterbury Acclimatisation Society about eight years ago. -
