 Mts. [Mountains] plants


 Saturday afternoon


 The parcel of Compositae &c of the Far 
 West has only just come in. I have looked 
 over the Compos. [Compositae] with some excitement. Some 
 few new, and the old help out Nuttall�s scraps,
 &c. very well. Tetradymias this side of 
 the Rocky Mts. [Mountains]!! Some new Senecios, especially
 from the Mountain near the snow line. 
 How I would like to botanize upthere!
 I will give you an account of these Compos. [Compositae]
 soon, and send back the spec. [species] as you
 desire, selecting one for myself where it will
 bear it. Pray remember me in this matter 
 as regards the other families of this collection.


 Sullivant has just sent me a Vaccinium of the
 several-seeded sort, with a drawing exhibiting the carpels
 becoming divided by introflexion in the way you showed me,


 Monday Morning.


 I meant to have sent this to-day in a parcel 
 containing Carey's Compos [Compositae] (semens & thistles) from Nuttall: but I will 
 retain them longer, [crossed out: illegible] as I shall want to compare some of Nuttall's
 bits of Artemisias &c., with those of this new collection. I hope to send 
 it next week. Is the Lieutenant's name Fremont? 
 I have just looked over the parcel of Lupinus, Rosa, 
 [Arnithera?]. I know nearly all, except the Lupines. If I do not 
 send sooner, I shall hope to bring them all back to you some time 
 next month. I will look at LeConte's plants when I 
 come, which will do as well. I have not yet seen any of
