Quebec, Canada, P. July 26th 1859 My dear Sir, I had the pleasure of receiving two days ago after a short visit to Montreal you parcel of Plants &c. present- I have only made a cursory inspection of them but lose very certain many Plant s of great interest and some few New. There were few before. I will examine them all as closely delay as possible are return, then proceed to be returned with care. I think D. Dorsey where that he has published descriptions of one of them name and a very Red to examine

Doing a very return and then it identifies with your number 100 & 101 that you name D. Motes, have enclosed. Don't I think there is one good idea to obtain a copy of these letters of yours & to hear of wonderfully visionary names. I cannot think Mr. Ulmian Peters, & Hockersio all? You bet, or your customers to others are it would ask, to the choice bet be that a quite sufficient for Hartleian and I conclude to plant to be very duly allied to Uriclinis and say not to write Peters I have provisionally called Uriclinis parts, gifts & Mr. Muthern. Your No 118, is decidedly, Arundo Boosa, & what ever for every kind of to write. I have been examined upward of 100 sheets; I should think if it is Mt. Hockersio: It is the Arundo annulata, aren't a de. b. Arundo Bergfeldensis, Rchb. Arundo Schumans Martichensis &c.&? Arundo variegosa, Sargeant & Arundo bifaria Mt. Muth!: Your No 109 is Setluma turneriana & Kbb. It's bet that to come & the arundis varieties as plans is to save sheets. To that I say Hockersio is marked & reverse by Smith and Sons I wish to express in names. Nine Arisinos contract will seem, for Ohio and for Idaho. These few I identified at me and I am quite doubt after, a I can decide a bet. Below me, Your very truly William Morris 1859. with.

Quebec. February 1st 1859. My dear Sir, I have at last finished all the papers you entrusted me with. I am very sorry that I should have told them so long that very many of them were incorrect there and will many of them. I find it necessary also, I am trying to work out the whole genus and this on my own letters will much time except only when that time can only be had by mistake. I have been very much interested as to connect as an object to determine articulation many of their scale to my knowledge. Tomorrow I

I was delighted to hand to your address returning all the plants in question to be returned and have secured some few duplicates for my own herbaceous which I trust will here some interest. If you are sorry they are not more valuable and some numerous bot. handling is much what to work as my brother confirms me to do. I have of course been compelled to take a few duplicates or varieties that will suit me. Some few of the collections and Canadian grasses as well I think find interest. You mention in your note that you had heard from Dr Grey that some collectors were more gracious for it in Dr. D'Arcy. My reason for saying so was that as to the office, being references who led the Pleasure of seeing Dr D'Arcy in Dr York. but we had Dr P has stated that he intended to send a hand to me by this office but that it had not arrived when the letters left Dr York. I am afraid I cannot leave to pleasure of adding anything of value to your herbaceous or botanicals of plants. when I return & believed I could dwell on it as I would most value to herbaceous in mention this or any botanicals of myself or the same is in the Curio by D'Arcy. Whoever writes must any notes that Walnuts plants as I feel doubtful about so many of them and I like also return to Orleans to bring out a few sorts a species Gramineous as in a few not to various oriental herbaceous as we.

If Gray was good must I send as copy of Mr Whipple that man with Curry a Francis sheet, and Francis is immense but dullish of son of Paris there's I'd any time for an order any form it would be good that I could have as part of Peters' estate.

Muhlenbergia Graminea, Agrostidea continued. No. 95 is Muhlenbergia glomerata Pur. of diffuse, and much branched growth. No. 96 is M. viridescens Pur. I am sure altho it differs from his description in having the glumes nearly equal, the branches of the barren shoots and the leaves broadish and much longer. No. 97 & 98. M. Berlandierii Pur: Mine seems thus novel. No. 99 is M. debilis Pur: No. 100 is M. gracilis Pur: A var with the foliage remarkably scabrous. No. 101 is M. calamagrostidea Nth. var seta hrevine No. 112 is the same. No. 102 is M. sylvatica Pur: var ligulis elongatis glumis angustior. Dr. H. Muhlen. Shaw calls it, Mr. new sp. saw M. sylvatica - Purry's Summers notes differ with mine those glumes. No. 115 is the same. No. 103 is M. calamagrostidea Nth & M. longiseta Muell: No. 104 to 107. M. Texana. Number. Agrostidea apparently widely spread in Texas No. 108. M. gracillima, Pursey. No. 109 & 110 M. distichophylla Nth No. 109 is a var. with long awns. In 110 the upper part of the spike is almost muticous. Wright No. 730, is the same. No. 111 Oligocarpus gracilis Presl. I am inclined to think this is also M. distichophylla. a small conspicuous awn is present. The spikes are very dense. I don't think Oligocarpus is a good genus. No. 112 is the same as 101. No. 113 is M. sylvatica Pursey No. 114 is M. new M. Berlandierii Pur: No doubt perfect to be certain of the species but it differs from M. Berlandierii in having the spikes obviously towards the top and the glumes more obtuse. No. 115 is the same as 102. No. 116 is Hordeum caudatus Nth var glumis non minusquam pilosis No. 117 is Agrostis arisetus Mel Sel. with the awns unusually long.

San Diego California, Barry. Shasta & Rogue Rives Valley, Dr Hulse; Benicia Cowl foria, Bicklow; Sacramento Valley, Hartney (Nov 20). Heas, Wright, Drummond & Lindheimer. The specimens above quoted seem to be all forms of one species sufficiently distinguished from S. avenacea by the long & mostly colored glumes the white hairs of the lower palea and callus, the short upper palea and burrillate awns. Leaves long variable in width & pubescence; in the young plant the leaves have strongly ciliate margins; nodes glabrous or retrorsely pubescent; glumes more or less colored, often deep purple; lower palea entire, or the lower portion only, clothed with white hairs even when mature; the naked portion triteraclose scabrous. S. setigera of Presl. is and older name than the one we have retained and if his plant and S. Mexicana Trin. be the same as quoted by Munro, should be preferred but as Munro considers that the same, should be preferred, but the latter author author says of Hartney's plant "verosimilitud varietas" S. tricolor Vale," and as it is not improbable that ours will prove to be that species we to avoid confusion retain the name adopted in H.

The palea awn is quite black at maturity when the palescence became brown. The lower palea is mostly gillous so that the awn appears to be centrally attached. The upper palea conspicuously grooved on the back and produced into a short mostly incurved awns which projects beyond the lower palea. The very nearly allied S. viridescens HBK. was collected in the semi region by the botanist of Cape. Fitgreaves' Expedition. Both these species resemble more the habit of Oryzopsis than of Stipa though they fall into the latter genus as limited by Trinus. Stipa pennata Lorini; Frin. & Rupr. Stip. p. 80. Var.

"The glomeris are somewhat smaller than in the Type & the leaves [6"-7"] shorter, minutely pubescent below the axillary geniculation, the upper portion plumose with silky hairs, about half as long as in the European forms which are much shorter towards the apex.

A great number of specimens of, what seem to us, forms of one very variable species, occur in the different collections and none of them are of the typical form of Nuttall, of whose original stove we have specimen. Notwithstanding the diversity in size, the branching of the panicle & length of the arms in the sprenes of the varieties mentioned below there seem no good characters to warrant their separation into species and with the very abundant material before us we feel warranted in reducing many nominal species to varieties of one - which seems to vary largely under the influences of B.

From the meager description of Lagasca it is difficult to determine what his species are. Banka puts B. principalis among the doubtful species of Entremine as E.?lagascue, + the restoring of the older generic name of Lagascue to those species which have been separ- ated under Chondrosin, Entremine to create a confusion of synonyms which can only be cleared in a thorough revision of the genus.
