The following are additional stations of varieties included in Mr. Bree*s 

 list : — Campanula rotundifolia, with a white flower, on the road-side be- 

 tween Leek Wootton and Wootton Grange. Tiola odorata, with a white 

 flower, in several places near Warwick. Tiola odorata, with a flesh- 

 coloured flower, on an old wall facing LevenhuU Lane, Warwick. 5cllla

 Lindsey and Wolverton. Prunella vulgaris, with white flowers, in a lane 

 leading from the turnpike-road at Guy's Cliff to the Woodloes. Polygala 

 vulgaris, with white flowers, on the side of the road from Hampton on the

 vulgaris, with flesh-coloured flowers, on a high bank 2i miles from War- 

 wick, on the Birmingham road, &c. Achillea ilfiilefolium, with purplish

I have also observed a few varieties of plants, depending on other cir- 

 cumstances than colour. Cynosurus cristatus, with a viviparous spike, by 

 the side of the canal at Leamington Priors. Scabiosa arvensis, with all the 

 leaves undivided, near Warwick. iVarcissus Pseudo-iN^arcissus, with full

 a tiled building, Warwick. Zythrum Salicaria, with ternate leaves and 

 hexagonal stem, at Emscote Bridge. J?anunculus bulbosus, with full

 places near Warwick. Trifolium repens, with heads of leaves growing out 

 of the flowers, at Warwick. Crepis tectorum, with a flat stem, and crowded 

 panicle, with a broad, flat, terminal flower, near Warwick. Cnicus lanceo- 

 latus, with a broad flat stem and a crested flower, 10 in. in circumference 

 at Hampton on the Hill. A^colop^ndrium vulgare, with the frond lobed at 

 the apex, and also with a deeply bipartite frond and incurved segments, in 

 a ditch by the side of the footpath from Warwick to Hampton on the Hill,

Flora of Rotherham. — Sir, I have been highly gratified by the notices, 

 in your excellent Magazine, of new habitats of rare and beautiful plants ; 

 and, as I have the happiness to reside in a district, than which few are 

 more favourable for the study of indigenous botany, I venture to think thaf 

 a similar list of our local Flora may not be unacceptable to the lovers 

 of natural history. In this catalogue I shall only insert the rarer plants 

 which have been actually gathered or observed, in a circuit of eight miles, 

 by myself and my friend, the Rev.E. Wilson, jun., of Swanton ; otherwise, 

 I might much extend it, by the addition of the numerous and interesting 

 discoveries of our indefatigable and intelligent neighbour, Mr. Cooper, 

 curator of Lord Milton's splendid oollection at Wentworth.
