for although the system of classing plants by what modern botanists have called natural orders is entirely the fashion of the present day, every writer who has treated of this order refers to Dr Brown’s Prodromus for the definition, and on reference to the work of that most distinguished botanist, on whose accuracy in all points that he has thoroughly investigated we may peculiarly rely, we find a defib ;
