The distinction with which we are thus concerned is better described as that between Classification intended for special purposes and that which is intended for general purposes. There must be some purpose or aim presupposed in every arrangement of the kind in question, just as there must be one for the shape and size of a tool; and the determination of this purpose at once puts its stamp upon the consequent classification.

At the beginning of the work we find an elaborate classification, under the title of an Analytical Key, the sole guiding principle of which is so to arrange the plants that a person who has a specimen of one of these actually before him may be able to ascertain the name.

But the bulk of the book is of course arranged on a third, and again totally different kind of classification, of which no more compendious description can be given than that it best subserves the general purposes of study, speculative as well as practical, of the objects in question. Each of these arrangements is, in the strictest sense, what we must understand as a.
