Century Dictionary and Cyclopedia

1. n. A saccharine substance found on the leaves of trees and other plants in small drops like dew. There are two kinds, one secreted from the plants, and the other by plant-lice, bark-lice, and leaf-hoppers. Bees and ants are said to be fond of honeydew. The name is properly applied to the sugary secretion from the leaves of plants, occurring most frequently in hot weather. It usually appears as small glistening drops, but if particularly abundant may drip from the leaves in considerable quantity, when it has been called manna. The manna-ash, Fraxinus Ornus, exhibits this phenomenon, as does Carduus arctioides.
2. n. A kind of chewing-tobacco prepared with molasses.
