Grenapa.—The new Botanic Garden at Grenada has already been 
noticed. It is situated a short distance from the town of St. George, 
on the road leading to Clarke’s Court. The locality is described by His 
Excellency the Governor-in-Chief as a “ good site, well watered, acces- 
a Botanic Garden and erect a house for the Curator. The 
objects of the Garden are stated as follows : To introduce and distribute 
plants of great economic value, to supply practical hints respecting new 
and promising industries, and to develop and improve existing minor 
industries. In the first Report, lately issued, it is stated that “two 
ea dian cases containing very valuable plants were received from 
“ Kew in July last, and 108 packets of various economic seeds have 
“ also been received from the same source.” 
The initiative as regards a Botanic Garden at Grenada is due to His 
Excellency W. J. Sendall, C.M.G., and to him and to Captain Maling 
and members of the Garden Committee the success of the efforts so far 
made is due. 
A letter has lately been addressed to Kew by Mr. W. R. Elliott, the 
Curator, which, as it gives the most recent account of this Garden, may 
prove of interest.
