be put in any marish place, not too choice. 1 Cymbalaria, 
brilliant little annual, thrives and seeds abundantly in 
every dampish corner or flat, making, if you choose, a 
dainty golden contrast with the pale pale purple cruci- 
form stars of Jonopsidium acaule, similar in size, habit, 
requirements, easiness, daintiness, and charm. ‘These, 
when established, will seed themselves independently from 
year to year, and need no more care than the occasional 
scattering of a little fresh seed. And, for dank rocks 
near the bog or overhanging, you have Savifraga Geum, 
umbrosa, mutata if you love beauty and_ curiosities ; 
pennsylvanica, hieracifolia, and erosa if you desire coarse 
and stalwart uglies. On dank, shady ledges, too, thrives 
riotously one of the queenliest of all Saxifrages—my well- 
beloved lingulata, with long, loose plumes of snow, which 
I am now establishing in the cliff above the Lake at 
Ingleborough, in places exactly similar to those damp 
shelves, from which I collected profuse mats of it near 
St. Martin Lantosque. 'The hypnoeides group, too, will 
be happy on rocks in the neighbourhood of moisture, while 
one of them, splendid aquatica, will prosper even in the 
bog itself, though, being large and stout, it must be 
cautiously introduced—and alas, that none of the Bur- 
seriana group will tolerate the bog! Nevertheless, in 
this section, I must pause again to congratulate myself 
on some beautiful novelties. Who Paulina may have

disastrously for herself, against the Augusta Agrippina 
in the great matrimonial stakes for the hand of the 
Emperor Claudius—I have no notion. ‘No matter, no 
matter, if I can get at her, I doubt if her mother will 
know her again ’—so bitterly do I envy and grudge her 
monopoly of a most rare, lovely little new Saxifrage, 
which challenges Gloria, and extinguishes Boydi and even 
beautiful Faldonside. Saxifraga Paulinae, from some-
