The systematic table, arranged ac- cording to the classitication adopted by the American Ornithologist's Union, was prepared by Frank M. Chap- man, Esq., Assistant Ornithologist at The American Museum of Natural History, New York, includes all the additions to 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. There is no more attractive study than ornitholgy, the department of zjology which treats of structure, habits, and classification of birds. The graceful forms, movements and habits of the feathered tribes have been celebrated in all ages by poets and artists, and have furnished the instructors of mankind with lessons of wis- don. But this admiration is not confined to the poet, the artist or the sage; it is universal. Wherever human beings are found, the forms, the plumage, the songs, the migrations, the lovers and contests of birds awaken curiosity and wonder. No similar work containing so many beautiful and faithful pictures of living birds, and so much descriptive information, is now extant, or has ever been published, in this or any other country.
