APPENDIX. ON THE PLANTS 0¥ THE MANITOULIX ISLANDS BT JOHN UEL[,, M.A., M.D. The plants wliose nnmes nro contaitipd in Uie following lis' i rojlocted durine the summer uf ISGG,* while with my brother on ii froologiciil exploration of some of the islands of the Miinitoulifi group. The list is a very incomplete one of th.- flora of the district examined, as the collection of plants was made entirely snlmrdinate to the pnijier work of the expedition. I, however, .seized the opporuinitips affirded flt varions stations from Owen Sonnd nnrtliwnrd, to make notes of the loc il flora, and collect specimens in orde to ascertain the ran^e of many plants in that intere.stinjf region. Most of the plants were collected on Cockhiirn, Drnraniond and St. .Joseph Islands, the geological survey of which was the object of the exiiediUon. Some of the smaller islands were al.-o touched at, and a visit to Gore Ii ly, on the north side of Grand Manitonlin Island, enabled me to obtain some rare siiecim.'ns from that point, and from the interior of the island to the south and south-east of it. While detained a few days at Owen Sound, previous to starting, I collected plants in different directions, and found several rare species of ferns growing luxuriantly and in abundance on or n.-ar the limestone escarpment to the south-west of the town. A number of specimens were also obtained at the Bruce Mines, and in the vicinity, on two dilfcretit occasions. The physical geography of the several islands mentioned above diff-rs considerably, and With it the vegetation. St. Joseph island is, for the greater part of its extent, somewhat elevated, consisting, apparently, of sand aul gravel, covered over wiili a thin layer of vegetable mould. The land rises gradually from the lake shore towards the middle of the island. Nearly in its cemre, however, there is a depression, the bottom of which is occupied by a small lake. On the dry gravelly soil of St. Joseph Island a very heavy growth of hard-wood forest was found, consisting of beech, liaid maide, hemlock, bass- wood, black and yellow birch, with a few rather scraggy white pines ; while on the lower ground they were almost replaced by black ash, cedar, balm-of-Gilead and aspen- poplar, balsam-fir, elm, mountain-ash, and many small and arborescent shrubs. The red elder was very conspicuous by its abundance and the profusion of its clusters of bright scarlet berries. From the circumstance that this island is immediately in the course of both the American and Canadian steamers and other vessels, large quantities of cord-wood are now cut and sold to them. In the future there is no doubt that the forests of tiiis island will be of great value for fire-wood, if not for timber. A traverse across the island, from Hilton town-plot, on the north side, to Richardson's, on the south, was made on the 25th July, so that the plants mentioned as having been found at these places, and in the interior of the island, were collected on that and the fol- * See Ueport by Mr. Robert Be page 109, lowing (lay. The plants from tlio Hniri^ Mines wore obtained on llic 24tli .Inly and 28tli August. We visited llio sniall island at tlie oa.^t end of St. Josepii on Jnly 28tli, and Hay Point, on ilie soiitii side, on the \»t fcptomlier. Drnnimond Island, the n"xt to tlie east (^f St. Joseph, bv a iiortliward curve in tiie inter- national boundiiry line, is ineliidfii in ilie territory of the United Stales. The level of this island is lower than tnat of ilic oilieis, niul tlie land is, in a largo extent, flat and marshy, the trees beinp for the most piirt sniiill liiil.siins, tamaracks, and Bprure.i. On the north side the island is more hilly than on the soiilli, and on ihat side heavier forest- are met With tlnin on the south, llie prevailing trees heiuji liurd maple, beech, basswood, iron-wood, balsiim-fir, poplar and wliite cedar, with some wliiie pine. In some places the flat lime- stone rocks come to the siirfiicc, and support only a sparse, stunted growth of firs, with patches of moss and lichen belneen ; while in others a dense thicket of flrs and shrubs covers a swamp or borders a rivulet. The plants obtained from the south-west corner of Dutnmond Island were collected between the 31st July nnd 2ud August, and those from the south-east corner on the 4th August ; while the cidlcetioiis from Sidgmve Cove, on the north side of the island, were made on the Olh August, and those from Vermont and Mcdfbrd Harbours, on the north- west part, on the 30ili and Slst Au>rii>t. From the lake the aspect of the land on Oruinmond and Cockburn Islands isqiiite dif- ferent. Hiirh land, covered with hard-wood, runs through the centre of Cockburn Island, which lies between Dnimmond and the Grand Manitonlin, having on the west side of it the False Detour Channel, nnd on the east the Straits of Mississngui, TowMrds tlie shore of the islnud, firs niv most numerous. The whole of the forest on this island is much heavier iliaii that of its tnore level neighbour. The eastern *ide of the island is undulat- ing or hilly, the valleys rnniiinir in a south- westerly direction. The most notable charac- teristic of the forest on this island is the quantity of red pine (I'inus resinn.w) which occiiis ill it. Few of the t^ees seen of this species were very large, but in places they aie very numerous (particularly in the buy to the east of the south-west point of the island), and large enough for making into timber for frames of houses. Collections of plants were made in this island at the following dates :— South-west point of the ishmd, August Oih ; interior ami n .rth part of the island, August Gth and 7th; Thomiison's Point, August 11th; Sandy Bay, north shle, August 13ih ; McLeod's Harbour and Huronia Point, on the east side, August 2l3t; Little Cockburn Island, in the False Detour Channel, August 5tli. Cape Smyth, at the east end of the (Jnind Manitoulin I-land, was visited on the I7th July, and Gore Bay, on the north side of the same island, on the 15th August. The for- est south of Gore Bay resembles very much that of Cockburn Island. A good many w!iite-pine trees were seen to the siuith-west of Gore Hay, and red pine occurs towards Lake Kagewoiig, and also at the west end of the island. Fires have passed through a large extent of the woods to the south and south-east of Gore Bay, killing the trees and causing them to fall. Lying across one another, two or three deep, the interspaces filled up with lirushwood and a rank growth of willow-herb (Epilubium angustifulium), which always abc;unds in th''se bru/if, these bare and cbarred trees form an almost impassable biirrer to the explorer. The marsh at the foot of Gore Bay, and the high cliffs on its eastern side, afforded a number (jf rare plants, Mississagui Island is small, fiat, and sandy, with two marshy ponds in its centre, and lies to the north of the straits of the same name. Part of it is covered with trees, and ttie rest is made u[) of sand-reaches partially covered with vegetation. It was visited on the 22nd July. William Island of the charts (locally known as Whisk'^y Island), at the mouth of ■Wequetuakong Bay, east end of Grand Manitoulin, was touched at on July 18th and Sep- tember- lith. This island, like many in the neighbourhood, is low and flut, and ia all wooded, with the exception of an open sandy space at its western extremity, on which I found soverftl unu^mil specU'S of idants, nn(' wlitcli, from the bones scattered over its surface, may have been an Imlian biirjing-place. In tliese ri'inoto settlomciits tlie growth of foreism weeds seems to keep nneo with the settlers, uud even to outstrip thciu in ilioir mlvaiictj iir.o tlie forests. This is to b« rcgre:iL'i|, as much might he doni', by careful ielcctioii of seed-grain and otliur means, to exclude many noxious weeds fiom these new and isolati'd seitleuiciiis.
