The calyx has the tube adriate to the ovary, and a flveparted limb; the corolla is obliquely campanulate, broad at its mouth and somewhat constricted at its middle, and has a flvelobed limb; the stamens are inserted high up on the corolla, and are two short and two long, with the rudiment of a flfth; and the disk upon the top of the ovary is thick annular and siiiuose. 'l'he species constitute part of the undergrowth in vir in forests. A. S. RHYTIGLOSSA. A very large genus of herbaceous or shrubby plants belonging to the Acanthacece, widely dispersed through the tropical and warm countries of the Western Hemisphere, and found also at the Cape of Good Hope.

The calyx is four or flve-parted; the corolla two-lipped; the stamens two; and the stigma simple and sharp-pointed. R. pectoral-is is one of the commonest of the American species, being found in most of the West India islands, and in various parts of tropical America, from Southern Mexico to Brazil. in some of these countries an infusion ol' tea made of the leaves is drunk to relieve chest affections, or a stomachic syrup is prepared by boiling them with sugar. in Martinique the French call it Herbe au Charpentier.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Introduction to Botany, Vol. 1 of 2 The principles of such a science must necessarily be complicated, and in certain branches, which have only for a short time occupied the attention of observers, or which depend upon obscure and ill-understood evidence, are less clearly defined than could be wished. To explain those principles; to adduce the evidence by which their truth is supposed to be proved, or the reasoning upon which they are based in cases where direct proof is unattainable to show the causes of errors now exploded, the insufficiency of the arguments by which doubtful theories are still defended, and, in fine, to draw a line between-what is certain and what is doubtful, are some of the objects of this publication, which is intended for the use of. Those who, without being willing to occupy themselves with a detailed examination of the vast mass of evidence upon which the modern science of botany is founded, are, neverthe less, anxious-to acquire a distinct idea of the nature of that evidence.' Another and not less important purpose has been, to demonstrate, by a series of well-connected proofs, that in no department of natural history are the simplicity and harmony that pervade the universe more strikingly manifest that in the vegetable kingdom, where the most varied forms are produced by the combination ofa very small number of distinct organs, and the most important phenomena are distinctly explained by a few simple laws of _life and structure.
