no American locality. Enstatite and antholite in pretty varieties 

 are found. 



On Kandolph farm. Rose tree, amethyst in the soil, a manganese 

 sand. 



On James Worral's farm, andalusite, fine large crystals, some 

 large groups. A crystal, nine inches long two and one-half inches 

 thick, is in the possession of Joseph Willcox. Very fine crystallized 

 amethyst, two and a half inches by eight inches, and many smaller 

 ones of a deep purple color, beryl, apatite, tourmaline have also 

 been found. 



Morgan Hunter's farm near the Rose Tree Inn, andalusite, several 

 fine crystallized amethysts. I have one from this locality three by 

 three inches of a deep blue color ; amouite after andalusite ; antho- 

 lite after andalusite. 



Middletotvn. On Joel Sharpless' fai-m, a quarry was opened 

 about five years ago for feldsj^ar and a considerable quantity taken 

 out, when it was abandoned. A very large deposit of mica, trans- 

 parent and colorless except for some included magnetite markings, 

 was found and utilized for stove doors. Beautiful microsco])ic 

 crystals of quartz occur occasionally between the laminae, also very 

 pretty flattened crystalline films of quartz. Beryls mostly altered 

 entirely or in process of alteration, terminated or in terminated sec- 

 tions, varying from one inch to nine inches in diameter, and from 

 one inch to fifteen inches in length w^ere found. I have one in my 

 cabinet, seven inches in diameter and fifteen inches in length, very 

 little altered, terminated and of a pale green color, but opaque. 

 Gahnite in small crystals was found, also small flattened green 

 garnets. Rand reports finding rose quartz near the quarry ; along 

 the road adjoining Isaac Evans' farm occur orthoclase and mus- 

 covite. 



On Albert Darlington's farm, orthoclase. 



On Humphrey Marshall's farm, amethyst in a quartz vein in 

 hornblende rock, rutile in crystallized amethyst. 



On John Tyler's farm. Dismal run, crystallized rutile, sillimanite, 

 vermiculite in small crystals, ferruginous quartz, prase in mammil- 

 lary masses. 



At Bishop's mill, garnets, some very fine ones, two inches in 

 diameter, plumose mica. 



On Walker Yarnall's farm, cassinite, smoky quartz, some good 

 specimens.
