One hundred and eighteen were purchased. The 58 volumes 

 from the late Elias Durand, including a collection of valuable 

 pamphlets in six volumes, were bequeathed to the Acadeni}': his

 convenience of those working in the Herbarium ; and in com- 

 pliance with this intention a separate catalogue of these books 

 has been prepared.
