We now proceed to consider the prodioablei, or *ubxtilutc* for the 

 prodicable*, which enler into a purely logical system in wl 

 term* are admitted. [LOOULOOL II.II.J The prodicable* which Aiintotle 

 really use* are gtniu, iptcia, and arciilrnl : and a* name* of clas*, the 

 genua and *|>ecie* liave Irruiimil prrciiin.i. Tin i-enti* la more than

!' u. e i.f the wonlx genii* and xpeciex, a ipecie* as largo a* the 

 gmu* due* not cxint. We have allowed tin- .< to be uod 



where tho genii* ba* but one ipecie* : and we must accordingly u*e 

 other i. inn. Again, tho really metaphysical character of the old torm* 

 can only be represented in our *y*toin by referring the prodicable* to 

 the lo;'n " Hiilii/i/ii/iical lide of logic. ConscH|Uontly, our predicablcx
