I have never failed to find them. There are two printer's errors in my last notes in 'The Zoologist,' February, 1878: page 49, line 20—for "Misletoe" read Mistletoe; page 51—for "a Harelda" read A. harelda. — J. Cordeaux (Great Cotes, Ulceby).
[We should like to know what authority there is for using Harelda as a specific name. As a generic name, instituted by Leach, it is familiar enough.—Ed.]
The Falconry Club.—The attention of all who are interested in "Falconry" is invited to the organization, now in progress, of a Club havin" for its object the rescue from extinction of this noble sport of our ancestors, and the promotion and extension of its practice. For some months past there has been located in the Alexandra Park one of the largest establishments of trained hawks, falcons, and cormorants in Europe. The owner of these birds, Captain Dugmore (64th Regiment), well known as a practical falconer of twenty years' standing, yielding to the solicitations of several friends, has kindly consented, not only to allow his entire establishment to be made available, without limit, for the use of a Club, if one can be organized, but also to increase it to such a strength, and to place it on such a footing, as shall render it amply sufficient for all purposes for which it can possibly be required. This liberal offer on the part of Captain Dugmore has removed the great difficulty which has hitherto stood in the way of the formation of such Hawking Clubs as have been from time to time proposed, i.e., the necessity of a very heavy outlay at starting, in getting together the necessary hawks and the professional falconers (an all but extinct race) to attend to them, as well as the incurring on the part of members of an amount of pecuniary responsibility for working expenses which few gentlemen might care to accept. In the present instance the liability of members will be limited to the amount of their annual subscriptions, as Captain Dugmore (who has consented to act as master, with the assistance of a deputy master to represent him in h16 absence), undertakes all pecuniary liabilities, and makes good all deficiencies. These conditions will place a Club in 6uch an exceptionally favourable position at starting, that the opportunity appears to the promoters one that should not be allowed to pass; the more so, since Captain Dugmore has intimated his intention of breaking up his establishment, should the present attempt to revive the art and practice of falconry not meet with support. The position of Captain Dugmore as regards the Club will be similar to that of a master of foxhounds hunting a specified county with his own hounds and servants, assisted by a subsidiary subscription from the members of the hunt; but, as he wishes the Club to start as free and as little hampered as possible, he does not stipulate for the collection of any particular amount; although, while he will continue
