Of the above plants, some are very splendid, and others very remarkable. 

 Jcacia spectabilis, and the grevilleas and hakeas, may be classed among the 

 former ; and Banksfa HiigelM among the latter. The leaves of this banksia 

 are lanceolate, with two acute lobes near the upper end, somewhat in the man- 

 ner of the lobed leaves of Quercus virens. Zichj/a Mollj/, a leguminous plant, 

 (the specific name of which, M. Hiigel's gardener informs us, is the Christian 

 name, and the generic name the surnamej of Countess Molly Zich, a zealous 

 botanical amateur at Vienna,) resembles a kennedya, and forms a very orna- 

 mental climber. As all the above plants may be considered as now introduced 

 to Britain, they will appear in the Second Additional Supplement to our Hortus 

 Britannicus, which, we expect, will be pubhshed about Christmas next. —

Amherstia. nobilis. — This noble tree, which belongs to Leguminosae, and of 

 which there is an excellent figure in Wallich's Plantce Rariores, has been intro- 

 duced into England, in a living state, this year, by the Duke of Devonshire's 

 collector, Mr. Gibson, who returned from India in August last. Mr. Paxton 

 informs us (Oct. 11.) that the plant is very healthy, and has already made eight 

 or ten new leaves. He is of opinion that it will be found of easy culture. 



The collection of Orchidaceae brought home by the Duke of Devonshire's 

 collector includes a number of new dcndrobiums, aerides, and saccolobiums,
