It is emphatically an original work, original iu design and execution, and whether in letter press, iilust ations or price, it is uuapproachedby anylhing of the kind in existence. It is recommended by the highest scientific. ecclesiastic and educational authority as being t :e most attractive, meritori ous, pure and ennobling exposition of our ornithology yet given to the public. Dr. Eliiotl Coues, author of Birds of the North West,” says; “It is a really notable work." Prof. C. J. Maynard, author of the “Birds of Eastern North Arneiica," says: “It contains the best pictures of the species which I have ever seen.— Thomas G. Gentry, author of “Life Histories of Birds,” and “Nests and Eggs of Birds of tfie United States,” says: “It is the cheapest and best publication on ornithology in this country. are of a very high order, and rivals in beauty of design and finish the more costly works published abroad or in this country. It should be found in our homes and in libraries generally.” And, according to Dr. Theodore Gill, a member Oi the National Aoademy of Sciences, it is not only a meritorious volume, but is altogether so handsome as to make it a very appropriate presentation book or ornament for the family table.*

It is an imperial quarto voume of engraved figures of all our species, artisti caily reproduced, true in all hues of color to their natural plumage and botanical surroundings. It also includes a copious text description of their habits and characteristics, and embracing in general the observations made by the most eminent writers on ornithology, and a systematic table, arranged according to the classification adopted by tho American Omithol- < gists’ Union, includes all the additions and corrections of our North American species which have been made to date, with an index to page, plate and figure of each species according to the A. O. U. number. It is illustrated with one hundred and nineteen full page colored plates, each representing from one to thirty or more species. It is the finest book on American birds issued sinceAudobon, and is pronounced by some authorities superior to that now rtre and costly work. It is issued in half and full bindings, Russia, seal, or morocco, at the not price of S4O and $45 respectively; but in response to a special letter, the association authorized me to say that a special discount will be made to- snch of our A.
