humble servant. By the same argument, T. Molinerii must have 
been sown by Mr. Hore and myself who found it together. 
All that I have said of the two first, applies equally to T. 
Molinerii ; for though referred to T. incarnatum, it is entirely 
distinct from every specimen of that plant which I have seen 
in other places ; while even the true T. incarnatum is unknown 
in the neighbourhood. The small farmers of the neighbour- 
hood do not trouble themselves about anything but corn, 
hay, clover, potatoes, and turneps; corn and potatoes being 
almost the exclusive produce of the parish. T. Molinerii 
grows in large patches along the verge of the cliff, from 
Cadquith to Kynance, a distance of six miles. Now T. incar- 
natum has been so recently introduced, that its (so-called) 
variety cannot have crept all that distance from one field: it 
has not had time to do so: besides, between two of the 
stations there is an interval of more than two miles. It 
follows, that it must have escaped from several plots of 
cultivated ground. Now how comes it that at the Lizard, 
where no one knows anything about T. incarnatum, that 
plant in several instances escaped from cultivation and 
assumed a new form; whilst at the one thousand places 
where it has been cultivated for years no such eccentricity 
occurred? My opinion is, that the district in question 1S 
peculiarly favourable to the growth of the Leguminosæ; 
and that the three rare Trifolia have escaped notice because 
visitors are very rare, the coast very beautiful, so that their 
eyes are naturally attracted elsewhere ; and it is very wearisome 
to travel over, so that many parts have not been explored di i
