" Class II. contains those whose 

 leaves are creiiate, and have globose 

 glands (Fig. 2). 



" Class III. includes all those 

 whose leaves are crenate or serru- 

 late, and have kidney-shaped glands 

 {F,g. 3).

 •' It will, however, sometimes hap- 

 pen that fflands are not discernible 

 on some of the leaves, especially on 

 those produced on weak branches ; 

 in this case other branches must be 

 sought for which do produce them. 

 They are represented as rather lar- 

 ger and more distinct, m the accom- 

 panying figures, than usually occur 

 in a state of nature. 



"These classes, thus formed, are 

 each divided into three divisions. 



" Div. I. embraces those which 

 produce large flowers. 



" Dir. II. includes those which pro- 

 duce flowers of medium size. 



" Div. III. contains those which 

 produce small flowers. 



"These divisions are not so dis- 

 tinctly marked as the classes, the 

 middle and small flowers only differ- 

 ing by the former being larger in all 

 their parts. 



The suhdivisions, two in number, 

 are determined by the fruit. The 

 first comprehends true peaches, or 

 those which have a downy skin ; the 

 second includes nectarines, or those 

 which have a smooth skin, similar to 

 that of the plum. 



" Each of these subdivisions is 

 again divided into two sections ; the 

 former including the panes, or cling- 

 stones ; the latter the mclters, or free- 

 stones. 



" The same arrangement may be 

 adopted with the other classes. 



" The following list contains some 

 of the best varieties, arranged accord- 

 ing to the preceding method :
