and Miscellaneous Particulars. 
dissipated : chamomile flowers, therefore, ought never to be ordered in decoctions. Externally, they are used 
as fomentations in cholic, intestinal inflammation, and to phagedenic ulcers : and their mfusion is also found to 
be an useful addition to emollient anodyne glysters in flatulent cholic, and in irritations of the rectum producing 
tenesmus. {London Bisp. p. 158.) There is a double variety generally grown for the apothecaries ; it is more 
ornamental than the single, but much less efficacious as a medicine. 
A. cotula is said by Linnsus to be a very grateful plant to toads ; to drive away fleas, and to annoy bees. 
It is a very common weed on soft rich soils and dunghills, and increases by seeds with amazing rapidity. 
The tribe of Anthemideae, of which this genus is the example, are nearly related to Helianthea?. In their 
style they resemble Inuleffi, Senecioneje, and Nassauvie^, but their floral organs are different. They 
inhabit Europe, Asia, and Africa, scarcely one has been found in America, or the southern parts of the 
world.
