We are glad to learn that the Rev. W. R. Linton has in hand a 

 Flora of Derbyshire, which he hopes to publish in the course of 

 a year or two. The Flora will comprise the Phanerogams and 

 Cryptogams, Musci, Hepatics, and Fungi. The county will be 

 divided into seven areas, mainly according to the geological nature 

 of its surface. Mr. Linton will be much obliged for any communi- 

 cations ou the botany of the county, specially as regards earliest 

 records and first discoveries of plants. These should be addressed 

 to hiin at Shirley Vicarage, Derby.
