that every one anxious to add to the value 
of his Herbarium, will embrace the oppor- 
tunity of possessing the plants from the 
highly interesting countries above men- 
tioned. For our own parts, we cannot but 
feel grateful to this Society, which has so 
liberally exerted itself for the promotion 
of Botanical Science: and as we have been 
subscribers from the commencement of this 
Institution to the present day, we feel our- 
selves authorised and justified in saying, 
that no collections were ever offered for 
public sale having such claims to our at- 
tention both from the beauty and rarity 
of the specimens, as those of the Uxro

Dr. Griesbach observes that there are 
three sections in this genus ,— 1. with the 
capsule one-celled, the inflorescence ter- 
minal, and the parts of the flower quater- 
nary (Cicendia filiformis, Rchb.) ; 2. with 
the capsule half two-celled, the inflores- 
cence terminal, the parts of the flower 
quaternary (.Hippocentaurea, Rchb.); 3. 
with the capsule one-celled, the flowers 
in axillary glomeruli, the parts of the 
flower quinary (Zfippion. Spr. Slevog- 
tia, Rchb.). It will be at once seen that 
our plant belongs to his third section.
