Excerpt from The Magazine of Botany and Gardening, British and Foreign, 1836, Vol. 2 This is not the only cheap, useful, and modest manual that has been lately compiled by Mr. Watson, as an important as sistant to the student of botany, to aid him in the speed acquisition of a minute knowledge of the distribution of Britis plants. There has also been published bv him a New Bota nists' Guide, including all the counties of Ba land and Wales, the counties of Scotland, with the adjacent is es from Man to Shetland, being-intended to form a second volume of the Guide and a third work is contemplated, which will embrace the par ticular distribution of species, considered individuali and the conditions or causes on which such may appear to spend. The present volume is a praiseworthy and successful attempt, and one which must have required no ordinary labour. We have pleasure in quoting the following becoming assage in the preface The title of Remarks chosen for t 0 present volume i to be taken quite literally. To fix on and form the first ru line of road over a trackless waste, is often a much more laborious undertaking than the subsequent repair and improvement of. Although such title is intended as a confession that the-present sketch is by no means complete, it has required more time and patience, particularly in construct ing the tables, than will be supposed by many persons who may now find a facile task in correcting and improving it. Let fault-finders, if there should be any, therefore rather accede to the author's request, viz. To aid him by so gestions, notes, spe cimene, or other means, whereby he may be enabled to comet errors, or supply defects, or endeavour to do better themselves, than be too critical. The present little book unquestionably lays the foundation for very exact knowledge on the geo graphical distribution of plants, and must be, together with the other works published, or about to be published by the author, the means of greatly facilitatin the studies of young botanists in particular, by not merely one ling them speedily to ascertain many facts, or it may be solve matters of doubt, but by.infusing into their pursuits many pleasurable and encouraging circum stances.
