Also, in September last Mr Charles Bailey, of Manchester, 
botanised in Kirkcudbrightshire and Wigtownshire, chiefly among 
the Rose and the Rubi, but the result of his work has not yet been 
published.

spinosa—near the Beef Tub ; Hieracium auratum—Moffat Water ; 
H. Sparsifolium—Craigmichen Scaurs ; Ajuga pyramidalis—Black’s 
Hope; Saxifraga nivalis—Black’s Hope. The Rev. E. F. Linton, 
of Bournemouth, visited the Grey Mare’s Tail during the past

tion: Lychnis viscaria, Alchmilla alpina, Saxifraga aizoides, 
Circea alpina, Arctostaphylos uva-ursi, Pyrola secunda (this has
