Ranunculus multifidus, Pursh, growing in abundance. It is in a 
small pond to the west of the main drive, and a short distance south 
of the late residence of Mr. Litchfield. 
_ Nasturtium Sylvestre, R. Br., grows on the border of the same pond 
in great luxuriance, and there is enough for all the herbariums in

Arethusa bulbosa, L., can be found in the marshes of New Lots, 
about a mile south-east from East New York. 
Pogonia verticillata, Nutt., was brought to me by Mr. G. B. Brain-

east from the Ridgewood engine-house.

Can you tell me where I can find in this vicinity Acer macrophyl- 
lum, or A. circinatum? A. campestre, the only maple indigenous to 
England, I was very glad lately to find in Central Park. 
A friend tells me that on a recent R. R. trip in Massachusetts, 
he saw the boys enter the cars with bunches of Arethusa bulbosa for 
sale at 10 cents a bunch.
