. . . .The 256 identified species are of the following categories : Con- 

 stant residents, 27 ; summer residents, 62 ; winter visitants, 10 ; regu- 

 lar migrants, 82; irregular migrants, 37; casual visitants, 31 ; species 

 that have disappeared within forty years, 7 . It is a very good piece 

 of work, based in greatest part on original personal observations, very 

 carefully elaborated, with attention not only to the material facts pre- 

 sented, but to those niceties of workmanship which are too often neg- 

 lected. . . . We are glad to see, especially among our younger writers on 

 ornithology, evidence of increased attention' to details of execution. . . . 

 an article may be made a contribution to letters as well as to science. 

 It is even worth while to spell correctly. — E. C., Bull. Nutt. Ornith. Club,
