Those Articles to which an * is here prefixed were added to the 

 Second Edition, not having appeared in the original edition. On 

 this subject the following passage appeared in the Preface to the 

 Second Edition. 



" In preparing the Second Edition I found myself able to expand 

 the volume a little, and have therefore introduced ' An Address to 

 Young Entomologists at Eton, Harrow, Winchester, Rugby and at 

 all other Schools/ and ' Instructions in Collecting and Preserving 

 Lepidoptera and Coleoptera,' which will I hope be found useful to 

 those for whose benefit they are intended. I hope that this increase 

 in the size of this edition will not render the purchasers of the first 

 edition dissatisfied with their bargain ; as these chapters are quite 

 elementary they are comparatively useless to the ' old hands/ yet, 

 if anyone feels himself aggrieved in this matter, if he wishes it, I 

 shall be happy to give him a copy of the Second Edition in ex- 

 change for his copy of the first.*" 



The following extracts from the additional matter are given as 

 samples. 



" An Entomologist soon finds that the field before him is so vast, 

 that even if, as is now generally the case, he confine himself to one 

 order of insects, for him to catch a sufficient quantity of each species 

 to supply even his limited circle of young Entomological acquaintance 



* I may here mention, that I have by me a few copies of the Second 

 Edition, of which the covers are soiled, and which I shall be happy to 

 dispose of to any Entomologist for Is. 3d. each. Entomologists in the 

 Country can forward postage stamps for that amount.
