The proposed classification of the mineral kingdom, and the place therein of the sili- 
cates, is given in the next table, in which are seen the four classes of Metalline, Oxydized, 
Haloid and Combustible bodies, with their orders and sub-orders, as follows :— 









CLASSES. ORDERS AND SUB-ORDERS. 
I. 1. MgrarLates: a. Metallometallates ; b. Spathometallates. 
2. OxYDATES.—3. SILICATES : a. Protosilicates; b. Protopersilicates ; c. Persilicates — 
4, TirANATES. — 5. NIOBATES. — 6. TANTALATES. — 7. TuNGsrATES.— 8. Morys- 
IL. DATES.—9. CHROMATES.—10. VANADATES—11. ANTIMONATES.—12. ARSENATES. 
—13. PHosPHATES.—14, NiTRATES.—15. SuLPHATES.—16. Borares.—17. CaAr2o- 
NATES.—18. OXALATES. 
BUG 19. Haoipates: a. Fluorids ; 6. Chlorids; c. Bromids; d. Iodids. 
IV. 20. PyricausraTEs: a. Carbates; b. Carbhydrates. 


In the subjoined list of the tribes of the three sub-orders of the order SILICATE and 
their respective species, some additions and a few changes have been made in the latter.
