The Rev. Dr. Hincks on the Flora of Ireland. 133 



the wish of others, and I trust have said nothing which can 

 be offensive to any ; but I shall be particularly happy if I 

 can contribute in the least degree to the due estimation of a 

 departed friend, who is, and ought to be, the pride of the 

 North of Ireland, the late John Templeton, to whom 

 Belfast, in particular, owes much of that high character which 

 she has attained amongst the cultivators of Natural History 

 in all its branches. 



Comparative Summary of the Plants noticed by Botanists be- 

 fore 1760; of those noticed by Mr. Templeton and his 

 coadjutors before 1804 ; and of those noticed by Mr. 

 Mackay in his e Flora Hibernica/ according to the Na- 

 tural Orders adopted by him.
