In reducing the number of supposed species many botanists will 

 very cordially concur, and will also perceive that the author has been 

 in several instances anticipated in his conclusions by Dr. Bro infield 

 in his admii'able commentary on these plants published in the ' Phy- 

 tologist,' and more recently by Hooker and Arnott in the sixth edi- 

 tion of the ' British Flora.'
