Bombay, Southern Division.—

Col. Peyton reports that the plantations of difierent species of Eucalyptus do not appear to prosper, and their numbers are rapidly diminishing. . . They are weedy and whip-like in growth, and require to be propped up to prevent falling over." Near Dharwar what is supposed to be E. resinifera appears to prosper. "Four trees are remarkably fine, although only six years old. They have attained on an average 40 feet high, and are 5 inches in diameter 5 feet from the ground."
