_Mistletoe_ (Vol. v., p. 534.).--Mr. Jesse, in his agreeable and

instructive _Scenes and Tales of Country Life_, has devoted a chapter of

eight pages to the mistletoe, giving a list of more than forty different

species of trees and shrubs upon which this parasitic plant has been found,

with many localities. In this list the white, gray, black, and Lombardy

poplars are included. The mistletoe is there stated to have been found

growing on the oak near Godalming, Surrey; at Penporthleuny, parish of

Goitre, Monmouthshire; also on one near Usk, and another at St. Dials near

Monmouth.
