Abstract: Memorandum on the subject of the Establishment of an Economic Museum at Bombay
The Museum is intended to afford a repository for every variety of Raw Material, - animal, vegetable, and mineral,- which the East supplies, used as food, medicine, or clothing, or convertible, by the application of human industry, into anything that becomes subject of merchandize : of all tools, instruments, machines, and implements, made use of in the process of transformation, and of the manufactures themselves which are the result.
The articles will be arranged under a double system of classification, the first referring to the locality from which they are obtained, the Second referring to their characters. [Excerpt]
