VINO mao been in whaling ship. Ee
nad TWO or three swans eggs and this
egg on a string. Yarrell asked if they
were for sale, and was told that the
white eggs were one franc each, and
the spotted one two francs. Unfor-
tunately, we do not know the date of
this transaction, but it was anterior to
1888, for in that year the egg was fig.
ured in Hewitson's British Oology."
After Yarrell's death it was sold at
Stevens auction rooms for e21 (Decem-
Der, 1866, and purchased for the late
Mr.. Frederick Bond, an old friend of
Yarrells. 1t remained in this gentle
mans possession until 1875, when it
was sold with his unrivaled collection
of British eggs to Baron Louis d'Ha-
knoxville, of Chateau de Mononville,
who sent it to Mr.. Stevens.
These eggs vary in size, shape, color
and form of markings. In length they
vary from four and one-eighth inches to
five inches; the greater number have a
white ground, but others are of various
shades of buff. The markings are in
some cases spots, in others blotches or
lines; in fact, every form of marking
common to the eggs of the razor-bill
may be found in the existing eggs
of the great aux, which became extinct
in 1874

eggs, followed by Germany with 8.
Two are in Holland, while Denmark,
Portugal and Switzerland each possess
l; there are ? in the United States.
Again, of the 6s eggs, 80 are in nineteen
museums, while twenty-one private
owners possess 80 eggs among them.
The fact of the great aux having for
merly inhabited the British isles has
been one great cause for the steady adj
vance in value of its eggs. The earli-
est record we have of a sale by auction
is in 1858, when two fetched respective
ly s29 and $50, which remained about
their value until 1860, when one sold
for $50. In 1880 the price had risen to
slOO, followed in 1887 by e16S and in
1888 by e225.
The egg which was recently sold,
though not nearly such good speci-
men as that sold in 1888, has an inter
est to all British ornithologists from
having belonged to Yarren, who pur-
chased It in Rnuln0na Of q 6shermRn

A TALK ABOUT EGGS.
One That Has Just Been Sold for
Three Hundred Guineas.
1t Belonged Once to q Hen OF the Great
AUX Family-The Picture Represents
the Great Treasure Half
Natural Size.

The recent sale of an egg of the
great aux at Mr.. Stevens auction
rooms in Covent Garden, London, is an
event of interest to many people be-
sides ornithologists. After a keen
competition it was purchased by Sir
Vauncey Crewe, of Cake Abbey,
Derbyshire, for 800 guineas.
The collecting of birds eggs is q
pastime which has obtained for some
centuries. John Evelyn mentions in
his diary for 1881 that when at Nor
witch he saw the collection of eggs
formed by Sir Thomas Browne, but we
must come to the end of the eighteenth
century before we can trace any col
lector In possession of an egg of the
great aux. Early in the present CEN
fury references to collections contain
ing specimens of this egg became more
frequent. There are sixty-eight re-
corded eggs of the great aux, but this
number includes several fragmentary
remains that can only by courtesy be
called eggs. They may fairly be d.
vided into four groups. Ten speci-
mems, from their perfect condition,
color and style Of marking, may be put
into class by themselves. Then we
have thirty-four good specimens,
twelve are slightly cracked, badly
blown or vanished eggs, while the re-
naming fourteen are imperfect, vary
ing from the eggs that had one end
knocked off probably for the purpose
of sucking), like that in the Anglers
museum, to the two fragments in the
Natural History museum at South
Kensington. Great Britain possesses
the larger number of the specimens,
