many points of difference to allow this opinion to be tenable. In this 
species there are no fine parallel diverging veins; the upper surface of 
the leaves is perfectly glabrous, even in the youngest ones ; the racemes 
are always simple, and the stamens 10,—the dehiscence of these is 
peculiar. :

Oss. The“ panicle is composed of simple racemes, on which the 
peduncles, of equal length with the pedicels, are arranged. The calyx 
is bibracteolate, wide, cup-shaped, having a ring of dense hairs around 
the inside"of its mouth. Vexillum with 2 callosities at the base of its 
limb, which run down the short claw. The leaflets are 2-21 inches 
long and 1 inch broad, the length of the leaf one foot, with a channelled 
petiole. Stipules semi-ovate, broad, covered with ferruginous hairs.
