TREMBLEY (Abraham), an eminent naturalist, was born 
at Geneva, in 1710, and having finished his own educa¬ 
tion in Holland, he undertook that of the children of M. 
Bentinck. He thence went to London, and had the charge 
of the young Duke of Richmond. In the course of these 
employments he travelled into various parts, and directed his 
attention to various objects, particularly of natural history. 
His discovery with regard to the propagation of the fresh¬ 
water polypes, engaged general attention, and he gave an 
account of it in his work printed at Leyden in 1744, and 
entitled “ Memoir pour servir a l’Histoire Naturelle d’un 
Genre de Polypes d’eau douce a Bras en Forme de Comes.” 
His papers on other subjects of natural philosophy, as elec¬ 
tricity, geology, &c., are printed in the Transactions of the

TREMELLA [Dimin. from tremo, to tremble], in Bo¬ 
tany,- a genus of the class cryptogamia, order algae.—Generic 
Character. Substance uniform, membranaceous, gelatinous, 
pellucid. Eleven species are enumerated in the fourteenth 
edition of Systema Vegetabilium: nine by Relhan: and 
nineteen by Withering. Tremella nostoc is not uncommon 
after rain in grass-fields, and on gravel walks; and is vul- 
gularly supposed to be the remains of a meteor or fallen star. 
It is somewhat gelatinous, consisting of several leaves vari¬ 
ously lobed and waved, slightly adhering to the ground by 
a central root; the substance very thin. It varies in colour, 
but is usually some shade of olive. When dry, it is of a 
dark brown and brittle. Micheli describes the seeds as lying 
in the form of little strings of beads coiled up within the 
folds of the plant, and only to be discovered by the micros¬ 
cope. This and three other species, viz. granulata, mesen- 
terica, and sabinae, are figured in English Botany. 
TREMELLIUS (Emanuel), an excellent Hebrew scholar, 
was the son of a Jew at Ferrara, and born there about the

writings related to the Oriental languages; and of these were 
Hebrew, Chaldaic, and Syriac grammars, a Hebrew Cate¬ 
chism, and Commentaries on the Prophecy of Hosea. Of 
his version of the Bible, F. Simon says, that it is not much 
esteemed by the Protestants; and that the writer’s Judaism 
has given him a singularity of manner, which makes hioa 
often wander from the true sense of a passage, and moreover 
that his Latin style is affected and inaccurate. Simon.
