THE ENTOMOLOGIST’S WEEKLY INTELLIGENCER. 
simply to instruct, because we feel that, 
in such cases, the instruction will go 
farther; it will have a greater impetus, 
and produce a greater effect. 
Please to push the Circulation. 
— We confidently make this appeal to 
every one of our readers : at this season 
of the year we have so many communi- 
cations that we should like occasionally 
to relieve ourselves by a double number. 
Communications are sometimes held over 
longer than we or our contributors like, 
and only last week three pages of matter 
in type was reluctantly squeezed out. 
The remedy to this is to extend the cir- 
culation: a large increase in our circula- 
tion would enable us to bring out a double 
number occasionally (for the uniform 
penny price). Each reader probably 
knows one or two entomologists who 
don't take in the ‘ Intelligencer let him 
badger them till they do.

telligencer may be obtained

TO CORRESPONDENTS. 
C. S., Holbeck. — It is a secretion of 
the insect which you found inside, and 
the object is to protect it from its enemies 
and the inclemency of the weather. The 
perfect insect is small, bull-headed, and 
with great jumping powers, and is com- 
monly termed a “ frog-hopper.” 
Udoi.piio. — Deal or cedar cabinets are 
considered very objectionable on account 
of the turpentine. We should be glad to 
hear, fifteen months hence, whether yours 
has answered. 
G. W. C .—Montanaria on primrose; 
for Alchemillaria no other food is as- 
signed than AlcheviiHa vulgaris (Lady’s 
Mantle). 
C. S. G.— We cannot understand your 
account of the mode of proceeding of the 
larva of Terrella. 
B. W. P. — We know pretty well the 
sort of thing you mean, but cannot help 
you to the name. Mr Desvignes works 
on the Ichneumon idte.
