The Goat heanl—a large herb of tlie Rose Family, willi a huge cluster of small wiiite llowers—has almost its d<!nble in the genus .-^stilbe of the Saxifrage Family. Leaves, (lowers, and fruit, and even having the stamens and pistils on separate pla-its are alike in both. In Dalibarda we have a plant of the genus which contains the BlacklHirry and Raspberry, resembling a stemless, round-leaved Violet. Sogreat is the resemblance that .Michaux, the fine old French botanist and voyageur, cliiistened it " Dalibarda ; It is a plant of Canada and the Northern .States, common northward, but not growing lurther to the south than the mountains of I' It loves to grow in c should it not apjily to all these sturdy herbs, kind to friends, but quick to rclie' oes ?
