If some of your subscribers who are acquainted with the Californian thistle and ragwort would favor us with a description they would be conferring a great benefit on the individual and the mas 3. One might be forever forwardiDg various weeds to a Government officer for inspection and novor have the misfortune to come across either of tho abovo. —I am, etc., Uninitiated.
