          Mucularia macrorhiza, Gubenaria Jisigchodes, Thuspium
 barbmodi, Lysirynchi???? bermudianum. At least a species
 taller than anceps and agreeing with the characters in Eaton
 a Penstimon which I cannot name, like Jubesuns. Lathyrus
 ocheolucus, and some others. On the line of the Rideau Canal
 in May I got Turritis retrofracta, Clematis verticillaris
 Polygala paucifolia [illegible], but of course almost every thing I find
 is new and interesting to a comparative stranger in the country
 as I am. By the way I see you are of opinion that Silene
 inflata is an introduced plant. I found it in profusion
 last summer on the mountains or hills rather around
 Lake Temisionata near the frontier on the St John and there
 I hardly think it could have been imported. If either you or
 Dr Gray think anything in the way of collecting &c that I
 can do here I shall be most happy and if anything occurs
 to you, a letter directed to Dr Maclagan, Medical Staff
 Chippawa, Canada West, will find me. Believe me Sir


 very truly yours

 I hope you will excuse me introducing myself but I daresay
 if I had delayed I might have got a regular introduction from
 some of the members of our Society.
