THE WEEKLY ENTOMOLOGIST. 
case of others, who have never yet 
reached the "imago” state. We can 
picture to ourselves, prospectively, 
the unfortunate Postman in whose 
district they reside toiling up 
the hill from the Altrincham Post 
Office, almost weighed down beneath 
the load of letters to the Editors, con- 
taining captures at Sallows, at sugar, 
descriptions of larvae of new Tineae, of 
rare Beetles &c &c, all of which it 
will be his most disagreable duty to 
carry up the afore-mentioned hill to 
the said destination. Still much as 
we pity the postman, and still more 
as we pity ourselves, who will perhaps 
often have the pleasure of rendering 
some such communications as the 
following from one of our working 
friends — " Okurrants of inoglo bilary 
Insurri ” intelligible to general read- 
ers — we cannot help hoping that such 
will be our fate, or at least we will 
endeavour to meet it with resignation, 
especially as it will enable us to cut 
our leaders very short, which however 
much the loss might be deplored by 
our readers, would be a great con- 
venience to the Editors themselves.
