Oss. It is possible that all the plants of this section 
(AcAULzs) may anciently have arisen in thegar- 
dens, or more likely in their native wilds, from 
the Caiigal mixture of two or three. But, as there 
is uo proof of this ; anid even be it as it may, we 
are of opinion that it best accords with the in- 
terestsof Botany as a science, and with our easier 
understanding these difficult plants, to arrange 
them as species, rather than varieties. Althongh 
both ways amount to thesame thing, so loug as 
each individual is appropriately named, and ac- 
curately defined ; and each located in the most 
natural manner ; sothat the little link it forms, 
may best adorn the general chain.
