The topography of Mid Lothian 

 county, and the very interesting en-

 engraving in London, and is expected 

 soon to appear ; and, as some exjiect, 

 accompanied by a Memoir from Profes- 

 sor Jameson, explaining the mineralo-

 district. The strata of the vicinity of 

 Edinburgh, and of Dalkeith, are .said 

 also to have engaged a good deal of 

 Mr. Tarey's attention during t!ie present 

 summer, from whom, also, it is hoped, 

 that some important hints regarding the 

 internal structure of these districts, may 

 liereafter be obtained by the jmblic.

 burgh, on a very large scale, is also

 even the embarrassments growing out 

 of the actual outlay of his own money, 

 as well as the almost entire devotion of 

 his time, during the life of man, in the 

 public service, as to occasion the assign- 

 ment of all, or of a considerable part,
