In cedar swamps of New Jersey. 71 . July, Aug. v. v „ 
I found this plant among a parcel of grasses and other 
plants collected in autumn 1811, in Monmouth coun- 
ty, New Jersey. As I had no time to examine the 
collection then, I was much surprised on finding this 
very interesting grass among them. That it is the 
same with P. stoloniferum. of Peru, I have no doubt, 
as I carefully compared it with the specimens in the 
collection of A. B. Lambert, Esq,
