          this parenthesis. I am too tired to write the intelligence 
 in Sept. no. of Journal of Botany about Geyer 
 & his collections. I send you the number therefore 
 by mail. I do not think Geyer has done 
 great things in the way of collecting. I am going 
 to subscribe, as I must have them to identify Hookers 
 doings, but I have offered to share the set I may
 get with Carey. You must have your 
 Fremont Report out and sent to England if you can 
 before Hooker begins to publish his enumeration. 
 For Many of his must be same as Geyer's. 


 You will see that Hooker has [crossed out: followed][added: complied with]
 the request I made to republish the char. [character] of Fremontia
 though without the remarks I sent. I fear a little 
 that Neuwied is before you, tho' perhaps he has not 
 characterized. Will you re-mail the Journal
 to Sullivant, making the name Ohio [crossed out: very]
 very conspicuous at on the wrapper.


 Pl. [Plantae] Lindheimerianae is out. I send you 
 a copy by mail. 


 A letter from Engelmann this morning. 
 He says Le Conte has returned to St. Louis,
 with the 1st Dragoons, "nothing new in plants." 


 I have no parcel of Blodgetts [John Loomis Blogett's] Compositae. 
 Did I not have them, and where they not incorporated 
 in herbm. [herbarium] when I was studying the last
 Composita for Flora?
