Water- Crefs. 



This plant is a native of Jamaica, and grows very luxuriantly in all the running- 

 waters about the Ferry, and in many other parts of the ifland : but it is rather too 



warm, and raifes too great a ferment in the blood, to be much ufed in thofe cli- 



mates. It is an excellent antifcorbutic, where the diforder proceeds from inaction, 

 or a vifcid chilly date of the juices ; but, in thofe parts, it generally overheats the 

 blood, and raifes a high florid colour in the fkin immediately.
