In Paris there must be, I should think, materials from French voyages.

But of all places in the world I should like to see a good flora of the Sandwich Islands.

(348/4.

See Hillebrand, "Flora of the Hawaiian Islands," 1888.) I would subscribe 50 pounds to any collector to go there and work at the islands.

Would it not pay for a collector to go there, especially if aided by any subscription?
It would be a fair occasion to ask for aid from the Government grant of the Royal Society.
