stamens 6, 2 of them on opposite sides shorter than the rest; an 
ovary of 2 united carpels, forming in fruit a 
silique or silicle, witb 2 cells and few or many seeds;

Norze.—Under this large Order, as under others, we present to our young readers a complete 
analysis, by which they may trace to its genus any Mustardwort growing in the United States 
But as the genera are so nearly alike, great care and close observation will be needful in avoiding 
mistakes. The plants for examination must be in fruit as well as in flower.
