I intend to collect the rarer Carices largely next spring, & if
you think proper to send them abroad for me I will send them
pretty early in the season.

I would like a copy of Schkuhr
extremely well if I could pay for it in plants.

I have subscribed for Silliman's journal and have obtained
the two last Nos. Oct. & Jan. I am making arrangements to obtain some
of the back numbers perhaps the whole work in time.

Would it be possible to procure the whole work of the
Annals of the Lyceum of natural History of New York. If published
to subscribers I would like to become one.

if you will procure
it for and transmit by Mail or otherwise I will send you the amt.
of subscriptions, [?]]

[Vertically between two columns]
How shall I continue to get a specimen of Carex [Caseyana}?]

[Right margin]
Can you procure me a copy of the Geological Report
[?][?][?] Winter & send it by mail? I am
extremely anxious to see it [crossed out: ?]

Please to send me a catalogue of the plants you
want collected the second season as soon as possible &
I will inform you what I can probably obtain for you.
