Leaves in opposite alternate pairs, closely imbricated in four 

 rows, bluntly oval, thick at the poiiits, somewhat flattened, and 

 furnished with a transparent gland on the back ; branches 

 thickly set on the main stem, somewhat horizontal, rather flat, 

 short, very compact, and dense ; branchlets very short, flat, 

 dense, compact, fan-shaped, and thickly placed in two horizontal 

 rows along the lesser spray ; cones identical with those of the 

 America Arbor- Vitee. 



The Tartarian, or, as it is sometimes called, the Siberian 

 Arbor-Vitse, has been misplaced in the Genus Biota by Mr. 

 Loudon and nearly all modern writers, although it strictly be- 

 longs to the Genus Thuja, as now defined, it having cones 

 exactly similar to those of the American Arbor-Vitse, with 

 valvata scales, and two-winged seeds, emarginate at the ends. 



This kind was originally raised many years ago, by Mr. 

 Weire, a Nurseryman at Coventry, and forms a dense conical 

 bush, furnished with branches down to the ground, and from 

 8 to 10 feet high.
