Gelsemium sempervirens. This most beautiful plant flourishes in 

 the greatest abundance, in almost every soil and situation, in 

 the states of South Carolina, Georgia, and Alabama ; but I uni- 

 formly found it to luxuriate best in moist rich soils. In view- 

 ing this most superb creeper I experienced the highest grati- 

 fication. Where local circumstances were favourable for the 

 extension of its vines, the display was truly grand. Its rich 

 foliage, beautiful flowers, and delightful fragrance, no pen can 

 describe; The senses alone can appreciate its riches. 

 GordomVz Lasianthus. This tree grows freely in the lands where 

 springs prevail. I saw it in great perfection near Fort Bain- 

 bridge. In the Creek Indian nation (state of Alabama) some 

 of the trees were 60 and 70 ft. high. The soil was very rich, 

 and of a particularly loose texture.
