mouth, in Mr. Fox's garden E. verticil lata, colorans, gracilis, 

 baccans and favoides were killed, but E. fiammca, tubiflora, 

 Icevis and abietina stood the frost. 

 Eriocepiialus qfricanug, Muraltia mixta, GEdera prolifera, Po- 

 lygala latifolia, myrtifolia, grand/flora, sjicciosa, Psoralea 

 pinnata, and Struthiola crecta, all died in Mr. Fox's Fal-

 islands. 



Amygdalus orientalis was killed in the garden of the Society, but 

 escaped at Cambridge. 



Aristolochia sempermrens was uninjured at Cambridge. 



Arbutus Unedo. This tree was affected very differently in dif- 

 ferent places ; in the warm gardens in the midland counties, 

 especially about London, it was either destroyed, or nearly so, 

 but at Owston, and elsewhere in the north, and at Sevenoaks, 

 where the cold was particularly intense, it was uninjured ; 

 at Sketty, every plant which was exposed to the east, suffered 

 severely, and many were killed ; at Claremont, trees, 25 feet 

 high and 2 feet in circumference, were entirely destroyed. In 

 the Society's Garden every specimen perished, either wholly, 

 or as far as the ground, but a hybrid variety between this 

 species and A. Andrachne escaped unhurt, both in the latter 

 place, at North Stoneham, and at Sketty. A. Andrachne
