THE LIST OF ENTOMOLOGISTS. 
1o the Editov of the * Intelligencer,* 
I am fearful your list of ento- 
mologists in the ‘ Annual’ will prove very 
imperfect and incorrect. Some of those 
enumerated as residing at left 
some months back for Yorkshire or the 
North of England ; another in your list 
has sold his collection, and is now deep 
in the mysteries of fresh-water shells. 
On the other hand, some who have col- 
lected for nearly thirty years or more are 
unnoticed, simply because, being quiet, 
unobtrusive people, they have not rushed 
into piint iioi troubled you with notices 
of insects nearly as common as the 
house-fly. 
I am well aware of the difficulty of 
obtaining information of the movements 
and change of pursuits of nearly a thou- 
sand individuals ; but with respect to this 
locality, I shall be very happy, another 
yeai, to scnil you information, as correct 
as I may be able to obtain at the time; 
and if you had a correspondent in each 
place of any note, who would do likewise, 
I think we should all derive benefit. 
I am, Sir, 
Yours respectfully,

A GOOD RESOLUTION. 
To the Editor op the * TntclHgencer.* 
Sir,— I have read Dr. O. Staudinger’s 
communication in the ‘Intelligencer;’ 
I am much pleased with it, and as 1 
have only a very “young” collection I 
intend commencing de novo, and ar- 
rauging according to the method he 
recommends. 
Now, Sir, I desire to know (and pro- 
bably others would be glad of the same 
information) where I can purchase the 
various sized pins for Sphinges, Noctute, 
1 ineee, &c., of the sort (length) he recom- 
mends, and what is the price per oz. of 
each size ? Any information on this 
point you can giv^e me will oblige 
Yours faithfully, 
A True Yoekshieeman.

[We have forwarded our correspon- 
dent’s application direct to Dr. Stau- 
dinger, and hope in due time to be able 
to give the required information.] 
What’s the Use of Entomology? 
I he actual use of Entomology may 
not be evident at first sight, but a little 
reflection must show that it is much
