£The student will form some idea of the immense numbers of insects belong- 

 ing to the British Fauna, when he is told, that in the preceding paper only one 

 order is taken into consideration ; and that, numerous as are the species men-

 insects appertaining to the group. We hope to present the remainder of our able 

 correspondent's article on a future occasion. — Ed.]
