vii. 1, 5 and 6, general accuracy*.—*Some_ rather 
material objections have however been raised, to 
some particular statements by Mr. Whitehurst, 
P.M. vol. xxxi. p. 36, and Rep, i, 473 N and

}. 18, in Englandf.—t Eleven years after Mr. White- 
hurst wrote, Mr. John Williams published the 
results of his considerable experience as a Miner 
and Collier, and ten years Jater, Dr. Richard Kir- 
wan published his Geological Essays, enriched by 
precise references to almost every preceding Wri- 
ter on the subject. 
About the year 1794, Mr. Wi illiam Smith, of 
Mitford near Bath, began his Geological Survey 
of England, see P.M. vol. xxxv. p. 1145 in 
1801, he instructed J. Farey, B. Bevan, Rev. A 
Townsend (¢* Character of Moses,” p. v.), &c.¢ 
previous to which, he had circulated Prospectus, 
for a similar work, only less extensive and com- 
plete than that which is now forthcoming, (p. 59.) 
He accurately defined the alluvium, discovered the 
extraneous fossils peculiar to most of the English 
strata, &c. &c. Rep. i. 108, and P.M. xxxviil.

xi. 1. 15, attendant science*.—* This is a more appro- 
priate expression, of the relation that Mineralogy 
has to Geology, than Mr. Kirwan’s, who says, 
that the former supplies the alphabet of the latter: 
—from technical and pedantic Mineralogists, Geo- 
logical investigation has more to fear, than hope, 
in the present day, see p. xil. and Rep. I. Vili
