tannic acid. (Mueller and Hoffmann.) The leaves of a variety 
(“ Ribbon Gum ”’) from Nelligen, Clyde River, New South Wales, 
yielded the author 32.13 per cent. of extract, and 1.815 per cent. 
of tannic acid. The leaves of another variety (“ Peppermint’’) 
from Bombala, in the same colony, yielded 44.24 per cent. of 
extract, and 8.75 per cent. of tannic acid. (Proc. R.S., N.S.W.,
