Mr. Ward, in quest of fresh air, exercise, scenery and health, and at the same time 

 to renew my acquaintance with whatever mosses and Hepaticas might fall in my way. 

 As many of your readers may not he aware how large a portion of the plants com- 

 posing these two most interesting orders may he discovered so near London, and in so 

 short a time as that which we devoted to searching for them ; I suhjoin a list of all 

 that we found, marking those which grew on Leith Hill or its neighbourhood with the 

 letter L; those at Box Hill, Headley, or Walton, with the letter B. To these places 

 only, I should say, did our ramble extend. The species not in fruit are marked 0.

I am not sufficiently acquainted with the Botany of the neighbourhood of London to 

 know whether any of the above are of rare occurrence ; if they are, I shall be happy 

 to give such directions to any of your correspondents as will enable them to procure 

 specimens for themselves. In the course of our ramble we observed Lycopodium cla- 

 vatum, in considerable abundance, near the summit of Leith Hill, and Mr. Joseph 

 Ward met with a solitary specimen of Lye. Selago. — C. A. Johns ; 11, Manchester
