In addition to the minerals found at oe Con. and 
described in the 2nd No. of the 8th Vol. of this Jou raal, 
~ following have since come under m i 
_ Caraming tonite, of Dewey, this ikacral: first found in

newly dug. On exposure to the air it changes to green. 
It is very abundant and lies ina diluvial hill, which. has

botryoidal concretions.
