          Do be so kind as to name the
mosses for me. Would you wish to 
present copies of my pamphlets on 
the chlorides to the learned societies
in Europe, to which you belong?
so, I will furnish you with copies
for the purpose.
Your most faithfully, J. Porter

The box in which your packages
are, is no 36. I wrote to
M. Decandolle, some time
since, requesting his book to
translate but have received no answer.
I should like occassionally
to translate some interesting documents
for, Silliman's Journal
but have just now none on hand.
I hope ere long to see the second
volume of your Flora. I should be
glad to see professor Lindley's
work, but, unfortunately, my funds
do not allow me to purchase it.
