          to study considerably. I have fallen
 upon a recent attempt of Lindley's
 to sort them right (the [?] set),
 accompanied with some saucy
 remarks, as usual. He has evidently
 made more blunders than he has
 corrected. _ though he had the means
 of cleaning things up, if he would take
 the pains. I wish to review those
 of the Flora, and correct Lindleys blunders
 and some of our wrong views, now that I
 have access to all the figures,
 in magazines, etc. _ I will do it in
 [?] [?]
 account of Santa Fe plants wh.
 I soon go at. _ in which there
 are 2 sp. Clematis, [inserted: [?] [?]], and an [?]
 very like A. alpina, indeed.


 I shall have no room for it in
 [Genera?]. Can you therefore
 get hold of, and forward to me
 your Amer. spec. of Clematis
 in [?]. I cannot use a
 larger piece of paper, for fear of
 double portage.


 Yours ever


 A Gray
