AUCTORE, J. L. RIDDELL, M. D., CHEM. PROF. UNIV. LA. 
[From the New-Orleans Medical and Surgical Journal, Vol. VIII, 
May Number 1852.] 
The following systematic list, embodying the results of a great many 
years of observation, by Dr. Josiah Hale, by the late Prof. W. M. 
Carpenter, and by the author, has been abridged from a manuscript 
work, contributed by the author, in 1851, to the Smithsonian Institu- 
tion. The MS. work alluded to is entitled, “ Plants of Louisiana.” 
It comprises the technical and the vulgar names of the flowering and 
filicoid species of plants, well ascertained as growing within the limits 
of the State of Louisiana, [nearly all of which are represented by spe- 
cimens in the author’s herbariurm],—with special localities, times of 
flowering, and full descriptions of the new species. The Cyperacez 
and Graminew, specially contributed by Dr. Hale, are not included in 
the present abridgment.
