the ENTOMOEOGIST’S WEEKLY INTELLIGENCER. 
An Improvement in Pins . — I have just 
heard from Messrs. Edelslen Ik Williams, 
7, Crown Court, Cheapside, that “ No 8 
will in future be supplied wiih a smaller 
head.” No. 8 being the piu more exten- 
sively used than any other, except for 
Micros, this announcement will be hailed 
as a great boon by the mass of entomo- 
logists, as hitherto No. 8 has had a head 
larger in proportion than any other ento- 
mological pin. — Rev. F. 0. Morris, 
Nunburnholme Rectory, Hayton, York;
