[In a telegram dated 5th instant Baron Von Mueller reports the specimens as being sorted, and again adverts to the great caution necessary in naming any species allied to those already found on high ranges of mountains in other parts of the world. Baron Von Mueller further states that sets will be sent to Kew, Sydney, and Brisbane so soon as the examination is completed, which will likely be by the end of September.]
