tained any injury, was P. halepensis ; in the Society's Garden, 

 a fine old specimen 15 feet high, originally presented to the 

 collection by Sir Charles Monck, Bart., was entirely de- 

 stroyed ; but at Belsay Castle this species, in a high and dry 

 situation, was not injured. P. Brutia, a species very near P. 

 halepensis, stood without protection in the Society's Garden. 

 At Dropmore, P. ccuiariensis, was much injured, but its trunk 

 and old branches were saved, owing, as it is supposed, to the 

 great thickness of the bark, and a covering of fern sufficient 

 to keep off 20° of frost. 



Pterocarya caucasica, commonly called Juglans fraxinifolia, in 

 the possession of Mr. Dillwyn, was uninjured ; and at Wo- 

 burn, although in an exposed situation, it did not suffer. 



Pistacia Terebinthus had only the ends of the shoots killed at 

 Norwich, and an old tree in the Apothecaries' garden at 

 Chelsea, was scarcely injured. Neither did it suffer at Owston. 

 P. narbonensis was killed to the ground in the Society's 

 Garden. At Abbotsbury P. vera and Terebinthus were un- 

 harmed, but P. Lentiscus died. 



PHLOMis/ra^cottzand ferruginea, perished in the Society's Garden, 

 and at Glasgow. The former was uninjured at Sketty. 



Peganum Harmala survived at Cambridge. 



Punic a Granatum was severely cut in the Society's Garden, on 

 south walls, and P. nana was killed ; but the former suffered 

 little in many other places. 



Quercus cocci/era was killed at Redleaf and elsewhere near Lon- 

 don, but not at Owston, nor Rolleston. 



Rhamnus Alaternus and all the varieties suffered severely near 

 London, more than Phillyreas ; none were injured at Owston, 

 or Sketty. R. balearica escaped at Cambridge. 



Ruscus racemosus suffered little in bleak places near London. 

 R. androgynus escaped at Cambridge. 



Ruta graveolens was killed to the ground at Claremont and
