Notes from St. John, N. B. 
July 8. — Mr. Banks discovered the nest 
of the Song Sparrow, {Melospiza fasciata,) 
the fourth he has found this season, all 
were built in shrubbery from eighteen to 
thirty-six inches from the ground. There 
were three young in this last one, just pre- 
paring to leave the nest. My own note 
book has a record of young birds of this 
species, taken while flying on June 20th.
