A.BABIS, Linn. Originally from Arabia, but 

 this name is not very precise, as the species 

 are found in many parts of the world. Linn. 15, 

 Or. 1, Nat. Or. Brassicaceoz. Mostly interesting 

 species, adapted for ornamenting rock-work ; 

 they are propagated from seeds or cuttings.

Arace.*;. A considerable order of endogenous, 

 tuberous rooted, herbaceous, and semi-succu- 

 lent plants, of which the Common Arum is a 

 familiar example. 



Arachis, Linn. From a, privative, and rachis, 

 a branch ; the plant bears no branches. Linn. 

 17, Or. 4, Nat. Or. Fabacece Ooesalpiniece. 

 This very singular plant has the property of 

 forcing the fruit or pods as they increase in 

 size into the earth, where they ripen their 

 seeds, hence the trivial name earth-nut. It 

 grows in sandy loam singly in pots, and is 

 multiplied from offsets. In South Carolina the 

 seed is roasted, and used as chocolate ; it fur- 

 ther affords a thin limpid oil, proper for lamps, 

 a purpose to which it is applied in Cochin- 

 China.

Aralia, Linn. A name of unknown meaning, 

 under which one species was sent to Fagon 

 from Quebec in 1764, by a French physician. 

 Linn. 5, Or. 5, Nat. Or. Araliacece. These 

 fine species succeed well in common soil, and 

 cuttings, cut off at a joint where the wood is 

 ripe, and. planted in a sheltered situation, soon 

 strike root. A. nudicaulis is used in North 

 America as a substitute for sarsaparilla. Syno-
