the plant some what more bulky, and the habit altogether more hardy, is 

 the Trifolium Molineri, which has been collected growing wild about Paris, 

 and which, not impossibly, may be the Roussillon, or farouche trefoil, ac-

 had from your excellent friend, M. Vilmorin, Quai de la Magisserie, Paris 

 on whom I have, in many years' experience, found the strongest reason to 

 depend, for the accuracy of the seeds which he sends out. I should be sorry 

 to deter any agriculturist from an experiment with the Trefle farouche, 

 which may turn out beneficially, and I hope no farmer will consider these 

 observations as having any other view than to point out where the principal 

 difficulties lie, and to stimulate the exertion of his ingenuity to overcome 

 or avoid them. I am. Sir, &c. — Causidicus. Feb. 4, 1S29.
