THE ENTOMOLOGIST’S WEEKLY INTELLIGENCER. 
larva (‘ Intelligencer,’ No. 58), I shall be 
happy to let him have any quantity he 
may please to want, under the conditions 
therein named. He must send a directed 
label along with his box, for I do not 
consider the address definite enough 
for the generality of correspondents. — 
Hen ay Sykes, Honley Moor , near Hud- 
dersfield. 
“ Kirby and Spence ” recommended 
from the Pulpit. — “It is not young 
people merely who are taken captive by 
this book. We have lately met with two 
instances in which it has exerted a similar 
influence over persons in advanced life, 
and devoted to pursuits which might be 
supposed little calculated to leave room 
for any enthusiasm on behalf of insects. 
In one case a learned friend of ours who 
had just been exploring, and with good 
results, the fusty Syriac MSS. of the 
British Museum, was so delighted with 
the book, on dipping into a copy which 
accidentally fell in his way, that he 
straightway purchased one for himself, 
read it with avidity, and has since be- 
come a most industrious collector. The 
other instance was that of one of our 
most popular metropolitan clergymen, 
who, having had occasion to refer to the 
book for the elucidation of some passage 
of Scripture relating to insects, was so 
deeply interested in what he read that 
he publicly recommeuded the work from 
the pulpit, with a warmth of commen- 
dation which somewhat surprised his 
hearers.” — ‘ Titan' for November.
