          If there was a mistake you can thus correct
 it at an early hour, if for me you can send
 it back by Mr. Torrey' or by Mail. I am only
 sorry that I did not seal it up - But Mr.
 Schenck was in such a hurry that I could
 not think of making him wait -


 My impression was that you had written
 two letters at the same time and that
 the subscription was put on the wrong letter
 Last evening I found what I supposed to be
 Rhynschospora fusca - It is precisely the same
 as that in Mr. Fields parcel which I found on
 Long Island and which I wished you to report
 on when you come to it - It occurs in vast
 quantities here & I can collect largely. -


 Two days since I found more Carex salina
 I do not now think that it is C. Barrattii for
 it disagrees in habit & almost everything else
 judging form a mere look at it I have
 sent you 10 specimens too in the box & 8
 species of (Gum Tree). One is abundant here
 the other 6 miles off. Or are they the same?
