 l understand that he entered into some 
. terms for publishing his works with Arrow- 
. Smith and Murray, and after passing a few 
days at Paris, is come hither. He arrived 
- yesterday; I saw him last night, and this 
- morning Endlicher arranged with him, and 
_ then with me, the general outline of a work 
- in which we are to describe, at least, the 
two most important parts of his Herba- 
! i rium, viz. the Swan River and the Lahore 
collections. The former portion was ac- 
. cordingly sent to the Imperial Herbarium 
_ this afternoon, and to-morrow morning we 
. Set to work; so that not much time will be 
P: lost. It is our intention to imitate, in some 
_ Measure, the plan of your ‘ Botany of 
1 Captain Beechey's Voyage,’ giving about 
. fifty plates of Swan River plants, and per- 
_ "aps as many of Lahore ones; and we hope 
_ 1o get the former in a state of great for- 
a Nice by the end of the year.

_ You inquire, consist of a Flora Posoniensis

ently limited interest, but extremely well 
 CXecuted.—The « Meletemata,’ first Fas-

are exclusively Endlicher’s, and not Bau- 
er’s, as I believe? you mentioned errone- 
ously in the Botanical Miscellany or Jour-

drawings, without any S. — ‘ Nova 
Genera et Species Plantarum Chilensi-

with Póppig, the first volume is complete, 
and a second will probably terminate it.— 
* Lertum Cabulicum,’ an account of a 
few Cabul plants; Endlicher is assisted 
here by Dr. Fenzl—one part only is out, 
and there will be but two or three more.— 
And the ‘ Genera Plantarum,’ of which 
you probably possess the first part—the 
second is in a state of considerable for- 
wardness. 
‘ Martius is concocting a plan for pub- 
lishing a ‘ Flora Brasiiensis, with the 
assistance of various Botanists ; but has re- 
linquished the idea of making it so detail- 
ed, and with such numerous observations 
as are already given in the two volumes 
that have appeared, on account of the too 
great length of time and space which they 
would occupy.” 
We are gratified in being able to state, 
that two highly interesting plants have 
been added to the British Flora during the 
last summer; Calamagrostis Lapponica 
and Carex rupestris: the former was dis- 
covered on an island of Lough Neagh, 
Ireland, by Mr. Moore (the same locality 
in which the Carex Buxbaumit was found 
by the same zealous Botanist. See p. 307); 
the latter, Carez rupestris, in Aberdeen- 
shire, by Mr. Dickie and Mr. Templeton 
* on shelves of rocks extending from the 
small round lake at the top of Glen Calla- 
der eastward to the break-neck fall, grow- 
ing with Salix reticulata and Carez atrata, 
and frequently among Didymodon capilla- 
ceus and Carex acuta.” Dr. Alexander 
Murray of Aberdeen has kindly communi- —

publication of some other author in view. In my no-
