fiffid Buddlea globosa, which perhaps arc only valu- 

 able by being accompanied with excellent coloured 

 figures, — thanks to the artist. Do you know of any 

 coloured figure of Holcus odoratus? 



I long to see Mr. Turner's prediction in the 

 preface to his Mus. Hib. verified, as to a Flora of 

 Ireland by Mr. Templeton : for my part, I fear it 

 will be long before Mr. Turner will have an oppor- 

 tunity of honouring my name with a similar pre- 

 diction ; and I say it with regret, for the reason 

 stated in my humble preface to Plant. Harior. 



Our mutual friend Mr. Caldwell desires to be 

 kindly remembered to you, and intends writing 

 shortly to you. I feel I have intruded much on 

 your very precious time, and shall only add that I 

 am, with every possible respect, 



Your sincere and obliged humble Servant, 



Walter Wade. 



From Mr. Caldwell. 



My dearest Friend, Dublin, March 7, 1808. 



The grateful feelings for the testimony of your 

 remembrance and friendship that I received yes- 

 terday by your letter, surpass all my powers of ex- 

 pression. I read it over and over : it contributes 

 to my happiness, but I am conscious I do not me- 

 rit such attention ; I do not meet with it from many 

 on whom I might have some claim: but your kind- 

 ness is all from generosity and sincerity, and with- 

 out any pretension on my part.
