M., In Western Texas, New Mexico, and Sonora, in the Years 1851 and 1852 The object of this memoir is to give a scientific account of the botanical collec tions made by Mr. Charles Wright, in New Mexico, or on the route thither from Eastern Texas, during the summer and autumn of 1851, and the spring and early part of the summer of the present year, 1852. In the former memoir, the publica tion of Mr. Wright's large collection made in 1849 was carried as far as to the end of the Order Compositae. On the present occasion I propose to give a similar ao count of these more recent collections, up to the same point, and hereafter, as soon as other engagements will permit, to combine the account of the remaining portions of these several collections, along with those of Mr. Fendler and Mr. Lindheimer (the publication of which has likewise been arrested at the same point), into one general memoir.
