,HE Canary bird, from its beautiful plumage, elegant 
shape, singular capacity, and attractive familiarity, as 
well as from the charms and melodies with which it 
enlivens our rooms, has always been agreeable to the fancier, 
and may, emphatically be called the real 44 cage bird.” Some 
of them we find melancholy, others cheerful; some angry, 
others peaceful; some intelligent, others dull; some indus¬ 
trious, others idle; some greedy, others frugal. But the / ha ve 
chiefly made themselves beloved by their animated, powerful., 
and varied song, which lasts almost throughout the whole 
year, and with some even during the time of moulting.
