 Mar, hearing him waihng, hurried and took him up in 

 her arms, reproaching the tutor for having laid his hand

BURCHARDIA, in Botany, is thus named by Mr. 

 Brown, in conunemoration of Dr. John Henry Burchard, 

 author of a letter to Leibnitz, in 1702, in which the found- 

 eft principles of botany are developed ; the exclufive im- 

 portance of the parts of fructification, in forming charafters, 

 are efpecially infifted on, and the claflification of Linnaeuj, 

 by the ftamens and piftils, is anticipated. Heifter pubhfhed 

 this letter, for the firft time, in 1 750, probably to depreciate 

 the honour of Linnius. But as the latter could have heard 

 nothing of Burchard's fentiments, he has all the merit of 

 originality, and the attempt to deprive him of this credit, 

 ferves only to fhew the high eftimation in wliich his per- 

 formance was held. Heifter has named a plant Burehardia, 

 but this is CaUicarpa of Linnseus, fo called many years 



before Brown Prodr. Nov. HoU. v. i. 272 Clafs and
