John and Coolidge with their companions brought in several specimens, but nothing new. Coolidge brought two young of the Red' necked Diver, which he caught at the bottom of a small pond by putting his gun rod on them, â the little things diving most admirably, and going about the bottom with as much apparent ease as fishes would. The captain and I went to an island where the Phalacrocorax dilophus^ were abundant; thousands of young of all sizes, from just hatched to nearly full-grown, all opening their bills and squawking most vociferously; the noise was shocking and the stench intolerable. No doubt exists with us now that the Shore Lark breeds here; we meet with them very fre- quently. A beautiful species of violet was found, and I have transplanted several for Lucy, but it is doubtful if they will survive the voyage. July 18.

Their manners resemble those of the Black-headed Tit- mouse, or Chickadee, and their notes are fully as strong, and clamorous, and constant as those of either of our own species. Few birds do I know that possess more active powers. The
