* I will not be certain that the sickly exotic, now and then 

 found in Barbados, under the name. Cinnamon Tree, is really 

 the plant producing- the true cinnamon. The similitude between 

 the L. Cinnamomum and L. Cassia is so great, that they have by 

 many been considered as varieties, although it seems to be at 

 present settled by good authority that they are distinct species.
