I believe epiphytic — On the level with the moss sandy soil on which plant young just below or on a level with the leaves, there are oval, dirty white, tuber-like bodies, born on a short-footstalk. Their surface is covered by papillæ, mounted on a short projecting point. — They are solid do not float — In long section consists of large

entirely left him, and throughout his tireless life of investigation intermittently rendered his existence a burden. I carried on a correspondence with Mr. Darwin for some years, and later on, when I left Hampshire, he used occasionally to come and see me during visits to London. Our gardens at Dangstein contained many curious plants, which were of use to the great evolutionist in his researches, and I was only too proud to furnish him with anything he might require. Most of Mr. Darwin's

in ours, amongst them love-birds in a large, covered wire enclosure, carefully shielded from draughts. We were very successful with them, and one pair produced no less than twenty little ones, which much interested Mr. Darwin to hear. In the following letter he referred to this — Down, Beckenham, Kent 29th December, 1874 Dear Lady Dorothy Nevill, — I thought that I had reported on the Utricularia, and I certainly ought to have done so. The large swellings on the roots or rhizomes certainly

tuber; the branches bearing minute bladders; of natural size. UTRICULARIA MONTANA. This species inhabits the tropical parts of South America, and is said to be epiphytic; but, judging from the state of the roots (rhizomes) of some dried specimens from the herbarium at Kew, it likewise lives in earth, probably in crevices of rocks. In English hothouses it is grown in peaty soil. Lady Dorothy Nevill was so kind as to give me a fine plant, and I received another from Dr. Hooker. The leaves are

let me see you and talk to you, and tell me about Darwin and the plants, and, if you can, do let me come some day and see them. It is long since I have seen your wonders, and I would like to come again. How far does Darwinianism enter into you—does it disturb your old beliefs or not? I think the mind of the real Naturalist is sometimes so bent upon each fact and each discovery as never to generalize, and so they manage to keep the two things separate in their mind. Darwin himself used to tell a

In this specimen the rush-like footstalks of the leaves were 20 inches in length. The blade bifurcates at its junction with the footstalk, and twice or thrice afterwards, curling about in an irregular manner. It is narrow, being only 3/20 of an inch in breadth.

Lady Dorothy Nevill war so freundlich, mir eine schöne Pflanze zu geben, und eine andere erhielt ich von Dr. Hooker. Die Blätter sind ganz, anstatt wie in den vorhergehenden, im Wasser lebenden Species sehr zertheilt zu sein. Sie sind verlängert, ungefähr 1½ Zoll breit, und mit einem deutlichen Stiel versehn. Die Pflanze bringt zahlreiche farblose Rhizome hervor, so dünn wie
