 Gentlemen, 



tIEREUNDER I transmit to you a second Decade of New 

 ■*•■*■ Succulent Plants, all of the Aloean family — all recently 

 from the Cape of Good Hope — all now flourishing in the 

 Royal Gardens of Kew ; and all sent thither from their native 

 wilds by their discoverer Mr. Bowie, our gracious sovereign's 

 most successful collector of succulent plants. 



Hoping this communication will find an early admission 

 into your useful miscellany, I remain, 



Your obedient servant, 

 Queen's Elm, Chelsea, Oct. 1824. A. H. Haworth. 



P. S. Have the goodness to notice as under, two errata, 

 which escaped in my first Decade of succulent plants in your 

 last Number, viz. P. 186, line 10, for cannons read convexis. 



188, in the margin, for Jilicaide read jilicaulis.
