Text Appearing Before Image:
, this arrangement of Provi-dence, by making ungrateful what is dangerous,has furnished ahnost the only safeguard fromharm, to the inexperienced and unwary. These remarks have been offered on accountof an impression which many persons entertain,that collateral evidences of the characters of plantsare worthless and undeserving of attention. Evenif the community were composed exclusively ofphysicians, such an opinion could not be whollycorrect. Every one may be called on to formhasty decisions on subjects where his experienceis deficient, and where an acquaintance with aux-iliary facts might lead him to a correct issue. Itis not only curious and instructive to perceive theharmonies of nature, but to every inquirer amongher works it must be practically useful. It canno where be more useful, or more deserving ofstudy, than in a new country, where the face ofnature presents an ungathered harvest, and whereevery clue to useful discovery derives importancefrom its influence and tendency. 2X1
