Qualified, as Mr. Douglas undoubtedly was, for a trav- eller, and happy as he unquestionably found himself in surveying the wonders of Nature in its grandest scale, in conciliating the friendship (a faculty he eminently pos- sessed) of the untutored Indians, and in collecting the productions of the new countries he explored ; it was quite otherwise with him during his stay in his native land. It was, no doubt, gratifying to be welcomed by his former acquaintances, after so perilous yet so successful a journey, and to be flattered and caressed by new ones ; and this was perhaps the amount of his pleasures, which were succeeded by many, and, to his sensitive mind, griev- ous disappointments. Mr. Booth remarks, in his letter to me on this subject, "I may here observe, that his ap- pearance one morning in the autumn of 1827, at the Hor- ticultural Society's Garden, Turnham Green, was hailed by no one with more delight than myself, who chanced to be among the first to welcome him on his arrival, as I was among the last to bid him adieu on his departure.
