P. 159 This was a short-lived industry on that soil 

 and its day was then nearly over. Other sources of 

 information are Smyth, Tour in the United States.

 don, 1775, I, 400406 ; Castiglioni, Viaggio negli Stati 

 Uniti. Milan, 1790, I, 323-326; Virginia Almanac for

P. 170 Ratzel, in his sketch of Schoepf (Allgem. 

 deutsche Biogr.), calls attention to this item of obser- 

 vation " Vielleicht ist er der erste, welcher auf die 

 regelmassige Drehung der Winde beim Uebergang 

 aus NO zu S und umgekehrt, dieselbe, deren Gesetz 

 Spater Dove naher begriindet, aufmerksam gemacht 

 hat." All that Dove's biographer claims for him is that 

 he correlated this shifting with the action of the ba- 

 rometer, and with moisture and temperature conditions. 

 However, see, note in Lewis Evans's Map of Pensil- 

 vania &c. (1749) " All our great storms begin to 

 Leeward : thus a NE storm shall be a dav sooner in 

 Virginia than Boston." Cf. Phillips's Maps of 

 America, under " North America." 



P. 173 At Charleston Dr. Schoepf put together his 

 Beytrdge zur mineralogischen Kenntniss des bstlichen 

 Theils von Nordamerika und seiner Gebiirge, pp. 194.
