In this we owe most to Mohl, Schleiden (andearlier, to Mirbel), not to mention a host of very recent vegetable England, it is principally Lindley and Ilenfrey who have put this knowledgeinto available shape for English readers ; on these Dr. Gray is a decided improve-ment, in the clearness and brevity with which he declares the new truths.—Ed.].
