The Editor must add that he does not charge with wantof caution those writers who have unhesitatingly admittedthe Marsh-Warbler as a British bird, he can only lamentthat his own power of discrimination is so inferior to theirs.If, before investigating the subject, he had any preposses-sion at all, it was in favour of the occasional appearance ofthe bird in England; but since, according to the ornitho-logists who have studied both species in life, it differs sostrikingly in song and habits from the Reed-Warbler, it ismanifestly unlikely to occur often in this country without itspresence being speedily remarked by our numerous out-of-doors observers.
