Excerpt from Conversations on Botany

The object of the following pages is to enable children and young persons to acquire a knowledge of the vegetable productions of their native country, by introducing to them, in a familiar manner, the principles of the Linn?an system of Botany.

For this purpose, the arrangement of Linn?us is briefly explained; a native plant of each class, with a few exceptions, is examined, and illustrated by an Engraving; and a short account is added, of some of the principal foreign species.
