On Melville island, lat. 74 J 30' N. , the most northern part to which vegetation has been traced, it consists of the humble grasses, mosses and lichens. No tree appears and nothing of a woody structure, save the solitary willow, 6 inches in height. The red snow plant, here exists and penetrates still more northern latitudes, multiplying amidst eternal snow and staining it with its crimson color. The middle district introduces us to the Flora of the U. S. This is characterized by numerous oaks,... ashes, hickories, walnuts, red birch, white cedar, red juniper, pines, maples, etc. And the underwood consists of innumerable varieties common in the northern, middle, and eastern states. Within this district the herbaceous plants are very nu- merous and many are of signal importance. Fine flowering aquatics are also numerous in this division, with many important grasses of pe- culiar forms. This district, as was observed, is sub-divided by the Alleganies which mark a distinctive soil between the east and west, and characterizes the nature of the plants.
