This is a systematic treatise on all the Birds knovni to occur in Ireland, very interesting 

 and reliiible, by a gentleman whose numerous detached papers on the same subject, no less 

 than the present work, show him to have been a close, accnrate and faithful observer for a 

 period of years, and whose results are sufficient to place him among the very first writers on 

 this special subject. It may be not inapt to compare him with his Scotch compeer, Macgil- 

 livray, at least in originality, fidelity, and diligence. The work is a practical out-of-doora 

 ornithology, carefully digested in the study, with abundant consultation of other writers.
