SnOBE Brans \nd Rail.— Philadelphia, August 11.— 

 . or brown-backs, short-billed curlew and some 

 ; plover passed down the New Jersey coast dur- 

 in.. the p;i.-i week. When the wind came from the south 

 and gmitiiwwt, tile birds hugged Hie bay side of tbe peaches 

 in theii Qighl, and made (rood shooting at some points. Few 

 j, 1. 1 topped north of Litlle Egg Harbor. Most of the 

 (light ui-nt fighl on, and hj tllifl time will be found at Sin- 

 n< puxent Sound, where fine shooting can lie hud for all the 

 jbuictoea. Some 6llOro-l)M shooting will be had, however, 

 lit Townscmi's inlet, and the Schrieber boys, who started for 

 that point a few days ago, will just bit it. It may be strange 

 to ]e ;l i't, it, but during the nigllt of August 9, rail birds were 

 heard passing over the city. This is early for a flight of 

 -.but it is nevertheless so. They were distinctly 

 heard by your correspondent for at least an hour about 10 

 P. M. flic wind was easterly at the lime. When the sea- 



:-. pt. 1, rail shooters will find birds, if the tide 



allows it, a- more than a usual number have bred with us 

 Ibis year— Homo. 



N tow JERSEY.— Toms River. August 3,— The shooting is 

 lisyel onh fair, or hardly that. There are no good wood- 

 , ,,H. cmunde in this vicinity, aud although out nearly every 

 flay, 1 only saw about half a dozen birds. Doves are quite 

 plenty in the rye fields aud make fair sport. The shore birds 

 Mack curlew, yellow-legs, etc.) are just coming. I killed a 

 morning. With the next moon we expect it flight. 

 I have been down as far as Egg Harbor, sixty miles below 

 here, aud found plenty of gunners but no birds. The pros- 

 pects for the fall are excellent, as the "oldest" inhabitant 

 ••never heerd so many quail a-hollerin'," and I myself have 

 In i:l a good many grouse and know of Ihree nice broods 

 gelling ready for the autumn campaign, — EscoPETA. 



Ckht-Hanold SuoeviTNti. — Editor Forest nail Stream: The 

 fact nt the easts, as it appears to me, is that the left eye is 

 'i ■lien the near object is to the right of the line of 



In i i he observer, anil rin- ri>na, Although that is true 

 for my eye*, still I. find that I could not possibly fire fiom 

 Jlouldor with both eyes open, and the only way I 

 can account for this is thai, as a youngster, a person closes 

 one eye while firing and consequently gets out of the way of 

 ksingtbat eye. and when in after years be comes to tire with 

 but a eyes open he finds that he might aswell leave one shut, 

 as he cannot see out of it,— J. L. W. (Cobourg, Ont.), 



Woodcock OS MienniAK.— Monroe, Mich., August (>.— 

 Woodeotk shooting, which opened here on the first of the 

 month, is almost a failure. Birds are exceedingly scarce, 

 either on account of the cold, bleak breeding Season, or 

 from other causes. 1 expect, to leave here the latter part of 

 the month for the royal sport of grouse shooting in Minne- 

 sota, and hope to give the sage hen and blue grouse of the 

 , turn before 1 retrace my steps eastward.— Johh 

 DiTIDSOi?, 



■: .I, is Gikvcniw for Game. — To preserve birds fresh 

 employ the following method: Procure at a hotel a quan- 

 tity of coffee grounds; or buy cheap coffee and make the 

 grounds yourself. Draw the birds and stuff them with 

 gieiii grass; cover bottom of box with a layer of coffee 

 grounds; Chen pael.a layer of birds; over these another layer 

 Of grounds; and so on until the box is full. The grounds 

 should be perfectly dry. 



aS GAME. — New Orleans, Aug. b'.— My business 

 i me over portions of Louisiana, Mississippi and 

 Alabama, aud Oil every hand 1 was informed that large num- 

 bers of quail have been hatched. Saw some coveys fully 

 gro.vn. Turkeys are also reported iu numbers, aud "the fail 

 and winter sport will be good.— E. Odeli.. 



Woodcock IS O.ntaiuo. — London, Ont., August. — No- 

 body in our section of Ottaw'a has made anything of a baj 

 as yet, four birds being the highest yet reported. Tin 

 ground has been so saturated with rain that the young birds 

 have not only been drowned out, but the eggs in the nests 

 have been lei! to take care of themselves.
