SHORT NOTES. 
Autumnat Buossomine or MERCURIALIS PERENNIs (see Journ. Bot, 
1890, 356). — The autumnal ae of this plant came under 
my notice again in November last. The station was under a low 
hedge with a x peiraris ape, on a hill-top to the west of Luton, 
Beds. The plants were in fine condition, the staminate flowers 
being much aie dcuaacon than the pistillate. The autumnal 
inflorescence is different in appearance from the earliest vernal, the 
former oe finer stems and fuller foliage, more like those of the 
latter part of the spring. This second ices ing has been 
aoe observed in South Beds aan 1880, and I believe it is 
of so frequent an occurrence that a description of the plant in a 
FT ae Flora — be incomplete without a reference to the fact. 
CaREX MonTANA IN Bucks. — On July 29th, 1889, I found one 
specimen of this plant i in a rough broken piece of ground with trees, 
undergrowth, and springs, near some pottery works in the parish of 
Chalfont St. Peter’s, about four miles from eeaee Bucks. I 3

fortunate oversight on “any part, Mr. J. E. Bagnall’s name was 
omitted from my note. It is only fair to him that this should be 
rectified, as Mr. Bagnall was the first to authenticate this moss.—
