 on the Coleoptera ; Mr. S. H. Scudder, chapters on the Butterflies and Orthoptera ; 

 Baron R. Osten Sacken, a chapter on the Diptera; Mr. P. R. Uhler, a ohapter on 

 the Hemiptera and Neuroptera ; and the editor expects to receive aid from other 

 entomologists. It is hoped it will prove a useful hand-book to every one in- 

 terested in the study of insects. It will be published in 12mo size in the spring 

 of 1869. An edition of five hundred will be printed, provided three hundred 

 names can be secured. Will entomologists desirous of aiding in the publication 

 of such an annual, send in their subscriptions in advance, that the means of pub-

 Cents a copy, received by W. S. West, Peabody Academy of Science, Salem, Mass.
