 more slow in putting forth those views, which we have 

 ventured to discuss, of the derivation of all our Fancy 

 Pigeons from the Columba lima, or Rock Dove. 



The reader shall now have our scheme of arrange- 

 ment : 



I. Pigeons which are found in the domestic state 

 only : 



Fantails. Turbits. 



Runts. Barbs. 



Trumpeters. Tumblers. 



Archangels. Bald Pates. 



Nuns. Powters. 



Jacobins. Carriers. 

 Lace Pigeons. Frizzled Pigeons. 



II. Pigeons which are found both in a domestic and 

 a wild state: 



Blue Rock Dove Indian Rock Pigeon 



(Columba lima of authors). (Columba intermedia of Strick- 

 land). 



Dovehouse Pigeon Collared Turtle 



(Columba affinis of Blythe). (Turtur risoria). 



III. Pigeons not capable of true domestication : 

 The Passenger Pigeon. Bronze-winged Pigeons. 

 The Long-tailed Senegal Pigeon. Harlequin Pigeons. 



&c. &c. &c. &c.
