my predecessor (Mr. Moore), a few years ago. I incorpor- 
ated them in the National Herbarium of New South Wales 
founded by me, and thus they form part of a herbarium for 
Sydney which Leichhardt had only seenina vision. [havea 
letter from James Kidd, Superintendent, Botanic Gardens, 
dated 6th April, 1846, in which he reports that Leichhardt 
had presented 200 kinds of seeds, collected by him in his 
recent expedition. Leichhardt gave botanical lectures in 
Sydney (Hooker’s Lond. Journ. Bot. iv, 280) and I have 
spoken to gentlemen who attended his lectures. Leichhardt 
published “‘ Journal of an Overland Expedition in Australia, 
from Moreton Bay to Port Essington, a distance of over 3000 
miles, during the years 1844-45,’’ (London, 1847). See also 
‘Australasian Bibliography,’’ Public Library, Sydney, p. 
228 (1888). A useful but brief account of his work will be 
found at (8). Some of Leichhardt’s reports are printed in 
Dr. Lang’s ‘* Cooksland.’’ See also Henry Stuart Russell’s 
‘Genesis of Queensland,’’ page 373 etc., and Favenc’s 
‘** History of Australian Exploration.’’ See also “An 
historical review of the Explorations of Australia,’’(Mueller 
in Trans. Phil. Soc. Vict., ii, p. 156). See also Journ. Bot. 
xxvii, 273. John F. Mann published a pamphlet entitled 
“Hight months with Leichbardt in the pears 1846-47,” 
(Sydney, 1888). The following Australian plants com- 
memorate him and usefully indicate his journeys; the genus 
Leichhardtia, R.Br., also the following species :—
