Similar treatises in the same form, small quarto, and usually 

 extending only to 7 pages, were anonjTuously issued, bearing dates, 

 Lond. 1680-9-5, as follows: (b) Eoot called Xean or Xinseng ; (c) 

 Brassilian root called Ipepocoanha ; (d) Angola seed ; (e) Virginian 

 Xutts ; (f) Bengala bean ; (g) Casmunar (above cited, Ed. 2.) ; (h) 

 Malabar Xutt ; (i) Maldivar nut; (j) Banellas; (k) Eoot called 

 Serapias, or Salep ; (1) Herb called Perigua ; (m) "Wood called 

 Xephriticum ; (n) Calmuba wood, otherwise called Calumback ; (o) 

 Bermudas Berries ; (p) Barbado Seeds ; (q) Eussia seed ; (r) 

 Mexico seeds ; (s) Herb Cassiny ; (t) Cylonian Plant. 



The last-named is signed James Mullixs, which proves that the 

 treatise was either several years old, or that the author's name was 

 assumed, for Dr. Mullins died in 1686, nine years before. 



Dale, in his Pharmacologia, Ed. 3. p. 309, and elsewhere, speaks 

 of the anonjTuous author of these tracts as ' JIarloe,' but there does 

 not appear to have been any physician of that name then living, nor 

 can I hnd any apothecary so named, and hence infer a mistake.
