The Canadian Sportsman and Naturalist; 

 William Couper, Editor. 



We greet the appearance of this beautiful 

 little periodical, the typographical appearance 

 of which reflects the highest credit upon the 

 printer, J. Theo Robinson. It is devoted to 

 all subjects of sport and natural history, and if 

 there is a possibility of its being able to keep 

 up to the standard set down in the excellent 

 programme, it will fill a mission of the highest 

 utility. We take the liveliest interest in all 

 ventures of this kind. The more publications 

 of a special character that Canada produces the 

 better for the country, and the more cause 

 there is to be proud of her. We sincerely hope 

 that the present publication will succeed ; espe- 

 cially as it is confided to such good hands as 

 those of Messrs. Couper, Dunlop and Wintle. 

 The first number is really attractive, both 

 typographically and editorially, several of the 

 subjects being treated in the most interesting 

 manner. The subscription price is only one 

 dollar a year, which is ridiculously low, and at 

 those rates the circulation should rise to the 

 living standard of at least 10,000. — Montreal 

 Gazette.

 — We have to acknowledge receipt of this 

 meritorious Monthly Magazine ; it is scarcely 

 possible to over-rate the usefulness of such a 

 work in our community, where everything 

 takes a high pressure shape ; few have leisure 

 to cultivate such taste as that to which the 

 Magazine is devoted. A tabulated list of the 

 Ornithology of our mountain by Mr. E. D. 

 Wintle is extremely interesting and valuable. 

 The widening of the circle, so as to include the 

 '• Sportsman," is a good idea, and one calcula- 

 ted to strengthen the work. It is alike credita- 

 ble to editors and printer, and we sincerely wish 

 success to this new venture. — Montreal Herald.

 —This journal is most neatly printed in pam- 

 phlet form. It will devote itself to information 

 regarding sporting and Natural history. One 

 of its first articles on " Salmon and Trout 

 Rivers and Lakes of Quebec, will be found most 

 interesting. The journal will uphold well- 

 defined game laws. One writer gives the names 

 of thirty-eight species of birds he has seen on 

 Mount Royal. We wish the new journal the 

 success it merits. — Montreal Daily Star. 



The Canadian Sportsman and Naturalist 

 is the title of a handsome little monthly jour- 

 nal published in this city. It contains a great 

 deal of information in a condensed form, and 

 its typographical appearance is an irresis- 

 table invitation to peruse its pages.-— Montreal 

 Post. 



The Canadian Sportsman and Naturalist. 

 — A neatly printed journal is sent us from 

 Montreal under the above heading, It contains 

 the study of birds, insects, fishes, &c, and 

 deals with a variety of subjects of interest for 

 the sportsman and angler. We hail with plea- 

 sure the new comer in his jaunty dress and 

 wish him long life and numerous subscriptions. 

 It issues monthly at the very low price of $1 . 

 per annum. — Quebec Chronicle. 



The Canadian Sportsman and Naturalist 

 is the title of a little journal to be issued 

 monthly in this city and to be devoted to mat- 

 ters of sport and natural history, and the pro- 

 tection of game. It promises to be a very use- 

 ful work, and the first number contains some 

 very interesting articles. — Montreal Witness. 



The Canadian Sportsman and Naturalist 

 is the title of a very neatly printed and readable 

 monthly journal just started in Montreal. We 

 are sure it will be favorably received by all 

 lovers of field sports. Hitherto sportsmen have 

 had no organ exclusively devoted to their 

 interest. This want will be no longer felt. — 

 Sherbrooke Gazette. 



The Canadian Sportsman is a new effort 

 of somewhat unpretentious form ; if properly 

 conducted it will be the means of imparting a 

 great deal of information to tyros concerning the 

 game, &c, of Canada. Hitherto but little inter- 

 est has been taken by the public as regards the 

 preservation of game and this new little journal 

 will doubtless excite some interest in the matter; 

 it is edited by Mr. Wm. Couper, than whom few 

 are better qualified to speak with knowledge. 

 We trust that it will be appreciated and receive 

 a deserved support. — Canadian Spectator.
