The collections of indigenous plants were, perhaps, the most interesting 

 to the British Botanist, of any which have previously been exhibited. For 

 the principal novelties they contained we were indebted to Miss Warren, of 

 Flushing, and Miss Rodd. The latter, in addition to having discovered the 

 Caterach officinarum on an old wall at Pintillie, in that county, has the 

 honour, we believe, of first adding to the Cornish Flora the beautiful Hy- 

 nienophylluin Tunbridgense, found by her on a granite rock in the Cascade 

 wood, at Trebartha. Specimens of both these Ferns, as well as of Orobauche 

 rubra, and a Luminous moss, were exhibited by Miss Rodd, from whom we 

 learn that although the Orobanche was first discovered in 1805, on a Basaltic 

 rock near Belfast, and since found at Iona, it has hitherto been unknown 

 in England. 



Miss Warren exhibited a beautiful group of aquatics and other indigenous 

 plants from the vicinity of Falmouth ; Mr. Sleeman and Mr. Johns exhibited 

 a similarly interesting group from the neighbourhood of Helston. It is 

 somewhat remarkable that Miss Warren should have so soon after Miss 

 Rodd's discovery, detected the Hymenopbyllum Tunbridgense in College 

 Wood, near Penryn '; a specimen of jt from that plaee was. on th« tabl».
