common and proper application of this term, when used 
alone, is to the degree of descent or inclination, which 
practical Men express in numbers thus, | in 5, and authors 
for the same write, 11° 32’, &e. The point of the com- 
pass or direction of the dip is necessary also, as SE or E 
45°S.

Smith, Mr. John Farey,Sen. Mr. Thomas Bartley, (formerly 
a Clerk and Assistant to Mr. Smith), &c. did the same, for

Postscript.—I beg to mention, before I close these Nofes, that 
it appears by a Letter of the 29th of April 1814, from Mr. Elias 
Hall, of Castleton, to Sir Joseph Banks, Bart., which he did me 
the honour to show me, that in the present Spring Mr. Hall has 
extended his survey northward from the Peak of Derbyshire, 
and made a Model, (see P. M. xlii. p. 113) of the Strata of the 
Grand Ridge, and the adjacent country east and west of it, al- 
most as far as Westmorland; and that he finds Pennigant Hill, 
N of Settle in Yorkshire, to be capped with the 2d Grit Rock, 
and to have a basis of Ist Limestone. - 
More than ten years ago, I learned from Mr. Wm. Smith, that 
Whernside hill, about 64 miles NW of Pennigant, was capped 
with Coal-measures (although esteemed there, to be the highest 
hill in England); and this latter circumstance it was, as well as 
the want of evidence offered by Mr. B., either in his Lectures 
or his Geological Work, of his favourite position ; viz. that the 
4th Limestone shewed itself in the lower parts of these and 
Ingleborough Hills, and Slate from under this lowest of the 
Derbyshire Peak Limestones, which made me doubt the cor- 
rectness
