          yet been able to set down to the study of either of these with
your Mon. Cyp. - + am not therefore sure that hey will
be of interest to you. I have numbred them + should
be much gratified if you will give me their names.
I have also put up some specimens of Utricularia cornuta
shewing a new assable character - in the presence of subulate
simple radicle leaves or leaf-like organs: which does not seem to 
have been noticed: though I find in Nuttall's Gen. Pl. this is
mentioned very briefly in a generick [sic] char. It is also found in the
new Plymouth species of Mr. Greene which I also send.
There [crossed out: are] also [crossed out: Bigelow's] specimens of Bigelow's Myriophyllum
tenellum - shewing that pl. to posess a long prostrate rhizoma,
which throws [inserted: off] numerous [inserted: erect] stems generally infertile, + submersed - the
fertile growing longer + emersed.
There are also specimens of Betula nana  + Salix repens - which 
I luckily got [crossed out: with] in the flowering state in June this year.
I send these by Mr. Harndens Rail-Road Arrangement 
whose office is I think in Wall St.
I am dear sir most respecty + truly yours
