The niffhfingale leaves us about a week earlier, and speedily after- wards is heard in the thickest woods of Lower Egypt. On the other hand, the woodcock and sjiipe now return to us from Sweden, and other northern countries, where they pass their summer life. The cross-bill also visits us occasionally, and near Oldbury, in Glouceste
