 ^ This series of letters, in which much of the natural history of the Perdicidce and Tetraon-

It forms a part of the interminable floating literature which evidences the absolute impea- 

 sibility of teaching sportsmen at large whether a quail is a partridge, or whether a partridge 

 is a quail, or whether one or the other or neither of these is a pheasant, or whether-bnt I 

 forbear. The many titles bearing upon this subject will show how hopeless is the case. Sci- 

 entists have not seldom attempted to set sportsmen right, but have generally had to give 

 it up,
