As he piudicd his fmger a little nearer, the stem trembled very visibly, and was seemingly attracted and repelled from him. The hair.- whk'h he noticed liefore did not move, but remained erect. There was no wind at the time, anil the motion was purely an induced one. After this interesting experiment he placed the end of his finger within a short distance of the growing bud, and slowly moved it in a circular direction.
