JARDIN BoTANIQUE 
According to Loudon (Encycl. Gard. Loudon, 1865, p. 102) 
this Garden, in 1865, contained ‘“‘ the remains of what has been a 
tolerably complete arboretum,” including an extensive collection 
of hedge plants and hedges, “a grass ground containing patches 
of several yards square of all the principal grasses [a ‘ Gra- 
minetum’”’], including the cultivated corns,” and other economic 
plants. “ Close to the college . . . is [1865] a small systematic bo- 
tanic garden, representing, perhaps, fifty of the Jussieuean orders.”
