at metal target aud that the shock had struck I'm
medately and shlvered II to atoms. The 'srtng's
was perfectly audible above the roar OF the mad
dened elements and reyerberated like q cymbal.
The rain then poured down In sheets like cataract

the clouds again mustered their now waning
strength and gave out another terrific report

OUR OWN BIRDS. Familiar Natdral History OF
tho Birds OF tho United StateH BY William L.
Baily. Revised and edited h Edward d. Cope.
Philadelphia: J. b. LipplncOst Co.
As the preface states this little work does not treat
the subject OF ortbclogy scientifically the object
being to simply 'prcsent In q concise and familiar
manner to the youthful reader some interesting
facts relating 10 the birds Of our own country" II
seems TO us that this object Is fully attained. The
book before us Is most instructive one. The habits
and characteristfcs OF birds, from eagle 70
sparrow are described in simple though interesting
language. Numerous quotations from Audubon add
TO the value Of the work. giving additional relia-
with the subject treated; but, taken as q whole,
everything Is instructive and full. To the youthful
"Our own Birds" Is likely to prove bounttful
source Of pleasure. and cannot fail to make them
thoroughly acquainted with the birds OF the United
States. As science there Ia none more agreeable
to study than ornithoiogy. We therefore feel no
hesitation In commencing this book to the public.
II Is neatly printed and bound and is profuseiy titus.
