Tae Author takes this opportunity of observing, that all the figures 
which he has published, were taken either from dried or recent 
Specimens, excepting in very few instances, where he was under 
ihe necessity of resorting to the plates of others; this, however, 
was never done but upon unquestionably good authorities —Anad 
whenever future discoveries shall shew that he has been misled, he 
will not fail to acknowledge it: the only instance that has yet 
occured to him is the following of Cascarilla.

THIS small tree grows several feet in height, and sends off 
numerous branches, especially towards the top: the bark which 
covers the branches is brown and smooth, but that of the trunk is 
externally more white and rough: the leaves are entire, lanceolate, 
somewhat cordate, and elongated towards the apex, which is blunt, 
on the upper side of a bright green, on the under side paler, and 
placed alternately upon- long footstalks. — Both the male and 
No. 49.—vo1, 4. 7%
