Of all the leafy trees of the Old Continent, the Birch is found in the highest latitude; it grows as far north as the 70th degree, though in vegetation it is so much repressed by the excessive cold of the winter..., that it is reduced to the size of a shrub. A few degrees farther south, it attains its fullest development, and it is the most common, the tallest, and most robust of the leafy trees which compose the forests between the 65th and 55th degrees of latitude ; in which interval are comprised Lapland, Norway, Sweden, and a great part of Russia. Proceeding still farther south, the Birch is observed to become less common in the forests in proportion as the Maples, the Beeches, the Elms, and the Oaks become more abundant.
