The names of the Natural Orders ending iti aceje are chi eft/ derived from Generic Names, as 
Campanula.ce/e from Campanula; such as end in m only arc not , as Composites, compound 
flowers; CnuciPiiRVE, cross-shaped; Lauiat.iv, lip-flowered , §■£*. 
The Natural Orders, for reference to which the numbers t>2 to 156 afford great facility, will prove 
of essential service to the Amateur in forming, by comparison, an opinion of any plant in this 
Catalogue which is unknown to him ; for instance, Auagallis , Cyclamen, Dodeeatheon, Primula 
pranitens or Chinese Primrose, Auricula and Polyanthus belong to the same Natuhil Order, Pri- 
nmlacetr, No. 131 ; consequently should be not know Dodeeatheon, the knowledge of one or more of 
the others would great/ 1 / assist him in forming an opinion of it. In making comparisons, the 
height of the plant should be considered.' The Aster and the Daisy, for example, belong to the some 
Natural Order 82, but at first sight there does not appear to be much resemblance between them, 
the difference in the size of the flutters and height of the plants being so very completions.
