It is plantedalways near churches, among the cedars which furroandthem, for the ufe of che town or village. Its leaf is inches long, divided into two by a flrong rib. The twodivifions, however, are not equal, the upper being longerand broader than the lower; it is a deep unvarnilhed gxzen,exceedingly pleafant to the eye, the fore part covered withfoft hair or down. It is very much indented, more fo thana nettle-leaf, which in fame it refembles, only ispar rower and longer. These leaves grow two and two upon a branch ; between gach two are the rudiments of two pair of young ones, pre- $ pared. \
