In many substances, when subjected to pressure and traction, the 

 particles exhibit no such arrangement into transparent streaks, as 

 in the above, but are merely dragged into lines, and exhibit a qua- 

 quaversus polarization. But there is another class, which yields 

 transparent streaks, without any trace of prismatic arrangement. 

 Such are the bodies in the following list : —

Compression is, no doubt, the agent which forces the particles into 

 optical contact, and traction draws them into a line, tending to sepa-
