PURPLE HORN POPPY. An annual flower of singular beauty, and deserving a place in the flower garden. GNAPHALIUM margaritaceum. AMERICAN CUDWEED. This plant affords beautiful white flowers, which drying and keeping their colour, it is worth attention on that account, as it affords a pleasing variety with the different Xeranthema, and others of the like class in winter. HIERACUM aurantiacum.
I shall now proceed to treat of the third division, which is of Lower Miocene age. Nearly the whole of this Lower Molasse is fresh-water, yet some of the inferior beds contain a mixture of marine and fluviatile shells, the Cerithium margaritaceum, a well-known Lower Miocene fossil, being one of the marine species.
