 We have fine specimens with vesicles from Dr. Scouler, 

 Dublin. 



Dr. Johnston says, " This very fine zoophyte is agreeably 

 associated in my mind with recollections of my friend Charles 

 William Peach." Though we have not room for the inter- 

 esting narrative which Dr. Johnston subjoins, we may give 

 a sentence from Mr. Peach's statement. " From being all 

 my life confined inland and not having seen the sea, I was 

 much struck with all connected with it ; and I well remem- 

 ber how delighted I was with a most splendid specimen of 

 Antennularia antennina which was placed upon the chimney- 

 piece of the little parlour of the inn I stopped at when I 

 joined my station. It excited a curiosity which was not 

 satisfied until I found out what it was, and I believe I may 

 date my progress from that time."
