One of the first flowera to poep out from tho loosening mold, in the early days of spring, is the Hepalica, s lowly plant, with thick, heart~ shaped, three-lobod leaves, and pale pink, biuo, or whito bloasoms, shaped like Luttercups, sod borne on stems, epringing dircctly from tho roots, Thero aro two spacies included fa tho flora of tho Norihern Uniteg States, differiug, Lowever, very alightly from each other. In tho ono, the lobes of (ho loaves sre roundod, na ora tho leaf-parts of the flower; and the plant fs namod Jepatica iriloba, In tho other, tho lobes of the leaves and tho leaf- parts of tho flower aro acuto; honce tho plant is named Hepatica acutiloba, DBoth species grow in wooded places, and thoir flowors may now bo scon nodding oa thoir Lalry scapes [n tho secluded spots which givo them sholtor. Tho 2/, acutiloba is found inthe ravines of Gloncoo and the groves at Riverside. and Hinadale. The flowor of the Jiepatica is wot what the botanists call complote. It has only ono sot of floral onvelopes, whereas in most flowers there are two,—tho outor set tormlng tho calyx, and tho foncr sob the corolla, * Tho Hepatica 18 dostitute of a corolla ; but the sepals of tha calyx, boing colored, uct 88 a eubstitute, sud tho threo groenish leaves of tho involucre stand 1o placo of a calyx. Thus the flower pasacs in ordinary oyes sa thoroughly equipped, and none but tho expert suspocts it to bo wanting in any of its appendagoe, ‘The Hepalica beloogs to the Crowfoot family, or Ranunculacer,—s tribo that has several early repreacntatives in this latitude. Among the foromoat to appesr ia the Enarly Crowloot, (#lanunculus fascicularis), which stara tho ver- dure in wild, opea places, with its bright, yellow blossoms, nestling, on tholr short stems, close 10 tho ground. 1t might bo callod & Dwarf But- tercup, for 1t fa a spocios of tho Dultercup genus, and bing the striking attributes that mark its near relativos.
