          even you might still find something to do in the Herbarium
of the Academy if you will bring on your materials.
Mr. Nuttal will be glad to give what Cyperacaea he collected
in his [?] tour- They are not numerous but there are some
strange looking ones amongst them- Do not forget to enquire about
a Telesia he obtained in New England, with a single flower & broad[ed?]
scales- It is in the same bundle with [Ubyett's?] Rocky Mountain plants.
-By the way what have you done with the small reticulated one
which fills the marsh of Quaker bridge?
We have Baldwin;s original specimens of Dalibardo lobata
but they might be better.- Mr. Nuttal found T colopendium near Canandagera, 
at Gedde's' Farm in a shady wood with Tasceus Canadensis.-
The plant which N. once proposed to call Boykinia, I think he published
in one of his two last papers as "Bryonia Americana" of Plukenet
as some old authors-at all events I remember his altering the name
in the herbarium.- N. has been occupied exclusively for some time
past with his collection of shells, but will get them out of his way 
shortly.- he will probably be saved some trouble by their first part
of Decandolle' Compositae, which I see contains a large lot of things
from California.
The Academy never received the preceeding Number of the Annals
of the Lyceum, I mean that containing Troost paper on Reptiles.
-I do not know that I have yet had an opportuity of thanking
you for Wright's Contributions, which was extremely acceptable.
Yours truly,
Charles Pickering
