x1. Particular Collections, forming Part of the Museum. 
Among these are enumerated plants received from different 
Botanic Gardens, and various general collections in volumes, 
particularly of Cryptogamic plants and especial collections, 
which are numerous and valuable. Under this head is men- 
tioned a very touching legacy, of a hundred species, left by De 
Candolle to M. Delessert. This bequest bears date in the year 
of his death, 1841; “Jeprie mon fils de choisir dans mon 
herbier cent plantes que j’ai décrites le premier, et de les ad- 
dresser de ma part 4 mon bon et ancien ami, Benjamin Deles- 
sert, comme témoignage de mes sentimens pour lui et pour 
sa famille.”—Here too are enumerated the many distinguished 
botanists who have furnished types or authentic specimens 
to the herbarium, which are doubtless of great value.

regions, visited by travellers and botanists, which have contri- 
buted to the increase of the herbarium.
