I " The work before us is designed to promote a more philosophical spirit of i 



\ inquiry into the nature and origin of Shells ; the grand truths that have been recently I 



I made known in the physiological history of these animals are ably described and I

^ and popular summary of conchological research. We may add, that few owners of i 



\ expensive cabinets of shells entertain correct ideas of the animals which formed <,
