 The editor stated that Audubon had spent twenty-two 

 years in the study of American birds, and that the engravings, 

 of which several had already appeared, would be accompanied 

 by a quarto volume of letterpress, containing all his observa- 

 tions on the natural history of the species, in the form of let- 

 ters, an example of which was given in the paper on the Turkey 

 Buzzard in the present number of that Journal (see No. 17).

 This notorious attack upon Audubon's veracity was fol- 

 lowed by Waterton (see No. 115), and referred to by Victor 

 Audubon (see No. 118), in his reply. Audubon's original arti- 

 cle (see No. 21) was published by this editor, who knew so 

 little of its author that not even his name was given correctly.
