gone. _ The black-headed, most beautiful of the buntings, will ‘sit 
specimens of Halipli and Hydropori for ever redolent. We may 
work them out with microscope and dissecting needle by the winter 
lamplight, and struggle and toil at their distinguishing, and the result 
to our non-entomological friends may seem poor enough, a series of 
black and brown dots on cards, but to us, they ever bring back the 
halcyon days of some early spring, and in our ears as we enumerate 
them, is the fitful wail of the plover over the springing corn, and the 
apping of water among reeds; and in our eyes the pleasant flicker 
of sunlight between the oak boughs, and with such things as these 
are we rewarded.
