          half-volume is published. That will
 be on sale, but my extra copies not, 
 except that I have intended to aid 
 its diffusion somewhat by placing 
 30 copies (all I can spare) on sale 
 with Pamplin, the proceeds to go 
 towards pay for drawings next time. 
 There are too few copies to go into 
 the hands of amateurs, and I suppose I 
 shall supply the principal botanists.
 But tell me who you want them 
 for, and I will see. 


 Thanks for the needful information 
 about Tessaria borealis.


 Business and foreign-mail has prevented 
 me from going on much in study 
 since my last sheet. 


 Among the Coulter plants loaned 
 by Harvey is a new genus of two 
 species, allied to Riddellia, but 
 queer as to its affinities. Very pretty 
 plants, we call Baileya!
