A.S. OP Parr.\KRETS, LORTRS. KTV. : A lar«<' iiiid repre- 
sentative class of s'reat merit, containing two s|)ecies (inite new to 
the show bench, both e.xhil)ite(l by Mr. (). Millsuni, vi/., the Stella 
Lory and Mrs. Johnstone's I^orikeets. T much re^ivt, as regards 
the forniei'. that the Palace draughts have been too mucli for it, and 
theiv appears to be little i)rospect of saving it. Another rarity by 
the same exhiliitor was a lovely pair of Golden-slionldered Pai-ra- 
keets. Another beautiful exhibit was Mr. C. T. Maxwell's KleHant 
Grass Parrakeet, in l)eautiful trim. l)ut, we are told, it has a ))ack 
claw missing. Another interesting exhibit was entered by Mr. F. 
Reeks, as an Adelaide Parrakeet. Unfortunately it had to l)e dis- 
qualified as it was an undoubted hybrid, jirobably between the 
Pennant and either the Red Rossella or Yellow-rump Parrakeet.

rump and Rosella Parrakeets ; and P^legant Grass Parrakeet. 
A.S. of Parrots, Cockatoos, etc. (12) : Another strong 
class, but yet nothing calling for special mention — the Hawk- 
headed and Meyer's Parrots have been already fully noted — -Mr. L. 
W. Hawkins' true pair of Gr-and Eclectus Parrots were a glorious 
mass of rich, deep colour and appeared to have experiencetl hard 
luck in being cardless.
