Lancastriense is the most elegant, and G. sanguineum the most ornamental of our British kinds. G. anemonifolium, a Cape species, is singularly beautiful, on account of its fine caulescent stem, loaded with large fern-like glossy leaves of the most delicate green, and its fine red rich blossoms broader than half a crown. 1464. Brownea. Named after Dr. Patrick Browne, an English physician, who published a Natural History of Jamaica, in 1756, illustrated with figures from the pencil of Ehret. A splendid genus, as yet rare in British gardens. Loamy soil best suits rooted plants; and ripened cuttings root in sand in close moist heat. 1465. Monsonia. In memory of Lady Ann Monson, a lady of eminent botanical acquirements, who resided for many years in the East Indies, and is said to have assisted in compiling Lee's Introduction to Botany. The species are curious and beautiful plants: they grow well in turfy loam and rotten leaves, and are increased by cuttings of the shoots or roots.

Helicteres. Derived from έλiξ, a screw, in allusion to the manner in which the fruit is twisted. Freeflowering plants of easy culture, and increased in sand closely covered. They have little or no merit. 1467. Dombeya. Named after Joseph Dombey, a famous French botanist, who travelled in Peru with Ruiz and Pavon, in 1777. Ripened cuttings root in sand in moist heat. 1468. Pentapetes. One of the names given by the Greeks to the Cinquefoil; but having no reference to the present genus, except that the calyx and capsules are in five. The species are of easy culture in any rich light soil, and are readily increased by cuttings in sand. 1469. Astrapæa. So called from aςρaπη, lightning, in allusion to the splendid colors of the flowers. A noble genus, remarkable for the large heads of flowers, and the great dilated stipules at the base of the leaves 1470. Pterospermum. From πτερov, a wing, and σπερμη, a seed. Light soil suits the plants, and cuttings with their leaves on root in sand covered close.

Malva was an excellent vegetable among the Romans, but what species is uncertain. A tree of the mallow kind is said, by Prosper Alpinus, to afford food to the Egyptians; and the Chinese use some sort of mallow as food. All the species are of the easiest culture and propagation.

Named after Dr. Paul Kitaibel, professor of botany at Pest, in Hungary, and author, in conjunction with Count Waldstein, of a noble work upon the plants of that country. A tall mallow-like plant with vine-like leaves, and white flowers. 1474. Althea. From aλθω, to cure. The salutary effects of the mucilaginous root, are well known in medicine. Guimauve, Fr. A. officinalis has long been in repute as a demulcent. Its roots are sometimes used as an emollient suppurative cataplasm; and a decoction of the leaves forms a useful fomentation in external abrasions, and in cutaneous eruptions, accompanied with a sharp ichorous discharge. A. rosea is the parent of nearly twenty splendid varieties of border flowers, which seed readily, and the offspring generally resembles the parent variety. All the species are of the easiest culture in common garden soil. 1475. Lavatera. In memory of two Lavaters, physicians of Zurich, neither the physiognomist, but two friends of Tournefort. The species resemble those of Malva, in general appearance and culture: much the handsomest is L. arborea, which is a magnificent plant in shrubberies, or in the back of wide borders. ORDER VII.

Of H. tiliaceus, in the island of Otaheite, they make matting of the bark, as fine as our coarse cloth; also ropes and lines, from the size of an inch to that of a small packthread; and fishing nets. (Hawks. Voy. ii. 217.) Forster informs us, they also suck this bark for food, when the bread-fruit fails them and in New Caledonia, the inhabitants frequently subsist on it, though it is an insipid food, affording very little nourishment.

H. Rosa-sinensis is extremely common in the gardens of China, and the East Indies; but its native country is unknown. Loureiro, however, affirms, that it is spontaneous as well as cultivated both in China and unknown. Loureiro, however, affirms, that it is spontaneous as well as cultivated both in China and Cochin-China; and that it is so common in the latter, that they have entire hedges of it to their gardens. It has been long known from its appearance on Chinese screens and paper hangings. The variety with double flowers is most frequently cultivated, both in the East and in European hothouses: the plant is, indeed, rarely seen with single flowers. (Smith, spicil.) H. syriacus is one of our most beautiful hardy shrubs, the more valuable as it is a free-flowerer, will grow in common garden soil, and propagates freely by seeds, layers, and even by cuttings. common garden soil, and propagates freely by seeds, layers, and even by cuttings.

It is a small diluting liquor, much used in our sugar colonies, and reckoned very refreshing in those sultry climates. (Browne's Jam.) The bark of this species, and also of H. cannabinus, is full of strong fibres, which the inhabitants of the Malabar coast prepare and make into cordage; and it seems as if it might be wrought into fine strong thread of any size. The leaves of H. surattensis are gratefully acid, and eaten in salads. The mucilage of the root of H. manihot is used in Japan for giving consistence to paper. H. Abelmoschus, from the Arabic Ab-el-Mosch, grain or seed of musk, has large seeds of a very musky odor, and are frequently used as a substitute for animal musk in scenting powders and pomatums. In Arabia and Egypt they are ground and mixed with coffee, to render it more agreeable to the head and stomach. H. esculentus, the Okro of the West Indies, is cultivated there, and in some parts of France, for the pods, which are gathered green and used in soups, or pickled like capers. They are full of a nutritive mucilage, and buttered and spiced make a very rich dish.

Golius remarks, that goz, which expresses in Arabia, a silky substance, may be the root of the word. An important genus, as furnishing the down used in the cotton manufacture. This down is found lining the capsules which contain the seeds. There are several species cultivated for this purpose in different parts of the world. G. herbaceum is the only species cultivated in Europe, especially in the Levant, and in Malta, Sicily, and Naples: it is also grown in many parts of Asia. G. hirsutum is occasionally grown in the West Indies; but G. barbadense is the prevailing species there. In the East Indies and China, G. herbaceum and arboreum are cultivated, and some other species, especially the East Indies and China, G. herbaceum and arboreum are cultivated, and some other species, especially that which produces the nankeen-colored down, not yet introduced to Europe. An oil is obtained from the which produces the nankeen-colored down, not yet introduced to Europe. An oil is obtained from the seeds of all the species, while those of the G. herbaceum are eaten in the Levant, and esteemed wholesome and nutritive.

In the Levant, the herbaceous cotton is sown in well prepared land in March, in lines at three feet distance, and the patches of seeds two feet apart in the lines. The plants are thinned out to two or three in a place, the patches of seeds two feet apart in the lines. The plants are thinned out to two or three in a place, and the earth is stirred by a one-horse plough, or by manual labor with hoes, and irrigated once or twice a week by directing the water along the furrows between the rows. The flowering season is generally over about the middle of September, and then the ends of the shoots are pinched off to determine the sap to the capsules. The capsules are collected by hand as they ripen, a tedious process, which lasts till the end of Nevember. The cotton and the seeds are then separated by manual labor, and the former packed in bales or bags for sale. The seeds are bruised for oil or eaten, and a portion kept for sowing. The Barbadoes cotton plant is sown in the West Indies in rows, about five feet asunder, at the end of September, or the beginning of October; at first but slightly covered, but after it is grown up, the root is well moulded.

The soil should not be stiff nor shallow, as this plant has a tap-root. The ground is hoed frequently , and kept very clean about the young plants, until they rise to a moderate height. It grows from four to six feet high, and produces two crops annually; the first in eight months from the time of sowing the seed; the second, within four months after the first; and the produce of each plant is reckoned about one pound weight.

The branches are pruned or trimmed after the first gathering; and if the growth is over luxuriant, ORDER VII.

When great part of the pods are expanded, the wool is picked, and afterwards cleared from the seeds by a machine called a gin, composed of two or three smooth wooden rollers of about one inch diameter, ranged horizontally, close and parallel to each other, in a frame; at each extremity they are toothed or channelled longitudinally, corresponding one with the other; and the central roller being moved with a treaddle or foot-lath, resembling that of a knife-grinder, makes the other two revolve in contrary directions. The cotton is laid in small quantities at a time upon these rollers, whilst they are in motion, and readily passing between them, drops into a sack placed underneath to receive it, leaving the seeds, which are too large to pass with it, behind. The cotton thus separated from the seeds, is afterwards hand-picked and cleansed thoroughly from any little particles of the pods or other substances which may be adhering to it. It is then stowed in large bags, where it is well trod down, that it may be close and compact; and the better to answer this purpose, some water is every now and then sprinkled upon the outside of the bag; the marketable weight of which is usually three hundred pounds. An acre may be expected to produce from two hundred and forty pounds to that quantity; or two hundred and seventy pounds on an average. (Long's Jam. vol. iii. p. 686. &c. and Browne. 1482. Redoutea. Named after P. J. Redouté, a celebrated French botanical draughtsman, still living. His drawings are inferior to those of the Bauers as accurate representations of nature; but they are generally tastefully arranged and please the eye, notwithstanding a coldness of coloring which often injures their effect. 1483. Palavia. In honor of Don Antonio Palau y Verdera, second professor of botany at Madrid, and author of an excellent translation of the Species Plantarum of Linnæus in Spanish. 1484. Cristaria. From crista, a crest, in allusion to the crested form of the capsules. A pretty plant, not very easily preserved. It answers better in a peat border than a pot, and is increased by division or seed. 1485. Anoda. Named by Cavanilles, from a, privative, and nodus, an articulation; because the peduncles do not possess the joints which are found in Sida, from which the plants of this genus have been extracted. 1486.
