 Trees, shrubs, or herbs, in genetal not remarkable for their beauty, the greater part of the last being the 

 commonest weeds of the tropics. The Lime, from which the order derives its name, is a genus of fine treet 

 with fragrant flowers, and Sparraann/a and Entelfea are handsome broad-leaved green-house arlwrescent 

 planU. The inner bark of 71lia is tough and separable, and supplies the material whence the Russia mat* 

 used by gardeners and others are prepared. Corchorus olitbrius is cultivated in Egypt as a kitchen.garden 

 vegetable ; the fibres of the bark of Corchorus capsularis are twisted into fishing linc-s ; and the roasted nuU 

 of the Lime tree are re^wrted to bear some resemblance to chocolate. Cuttings or seeds.

 These differ from Tiliacea in nothing except their lobed petals and anthers opening by two pores at the 

 apex. The flowers of some of the species of Elaeocirpus are fragrant, the fruit eatable, and the hard rugose 

 stones manufactured into necklaces. Cuttings.

 This order, according to Petit Thouars, is allied to Malv^cese, in having an involucrum to the flower, and 

 in the stamens being monadclphous ; but, according to Jussieu, it is allied to Eben^cea, from the petals being 

 connected at the base, and in the seeds being furnished with albumen. Shrubs and trees, with simple 

 alternate stipulaceous leaves, chiefly natives of Madagascar. The genus Hugun/a does not agree with the 

 rest of the genera of this order, in l>eing destitute of the involucrum to the flower, therefore it is placed in 

 ChlenJlceis afflnes by DecandoUe. Cuttings.

 A very small order, consisting wholly of trees or shrubs, bearing handsome white or yellowish flowers. They 

 are nearly related to Camellifeas, from which they do not differ at all in habit. Nothing is known of their pro- 

 perties. Noronha states that a species of Saurauja found in Java has a subacid fruit, in flavor resembling the 

 Tomato, and that is eaten by the Javanese under the name of Koleho. Inarching, cuttings, or layers.

 Camellias are too well known in our gardens to render it necessary to say much upon their peculiarities 

 The Camellia is one of the most beautiful, and the tea one of the most useful, plants in the world. Both are 

 natives of China, Japan, or Nepal. The tea is well known for the stimulating influence of its decoction 

 upon the nerves, which i.s attributed by Cullen to the presence of a narcotic principle. The seeds of Camelba 

 oleifera vield a fine oil. None of the species bear fragrant flowers. Their nearest attinity is with Ternstrcemi- 

 acetg^ from which they probably ought not to be separated. Cutting, grafting, or inarching.

 Smooth trees or shrubs, with simple stalked cxstipulate alternate entire leaves, and little axillary flowers. 

 Botanists doubt whether what is called a calyx is not rather an involucrum, in which case the corolla would 

 become a calyx, and the station of the order among MonoclilamJ'dea?, rather than in this place. Cuttings.
