Excerpt from Analytical Class-Book of Botany, Designed for Academies and Private Students: In Two Parts; Part I. Elements of Vegetable Structure and Physiology; Part II. Systematic Botany, Illustrated by a Compendious Flora of the Northern States

The Primary class-book of Botany (one of the present series), is intended to supply this great want of a common-school book, which shall be at once clear, simple, and thorough in its details, so as to render the science attractive Without diluting it. It consists substantially of the first part of the Present Volume. It is unencumbered with useless technicalities and synonyms, and is so simple and direct to the point, that any Teacher of even common penetration and address can enter at once into the spirit of the lessons; and thus, while he is teaching, be preparing himself along witli the scholar, to enter the analytical course of study, should his taste incline that way.

Teachers will observe that in the references to the Illustrations, contained in the Text, the num ber of the Plate is given but once hence all figures are included in the one last mentioned, till another is introduced.

Part II., or systematic botany, containing the flora, has some important points for an ele mentary work, among which are the simplicity and directness of the synopses, the clearness and ful ness of the descriptions, the nice distinctions observed between nearly-allied species, and a very high degree of simplicity and clearness in the analyses.
