2g6 TRAVELS THROUGH 



Ifola d* Elba exported into feveral ports of the 

 Roman and Tufcan dominions, and ibid there to 

 the proprietors of the furnaces. 



The ifland of Corfica, and its natural produc- 

 tions, will be, I fancy, nearer examined by its 

 prefent pofTefibrs. Mr. Barral, a French engineer, 

 with whom I got acquainted at Naples, has 

 affured me that there are Granite-mountains j and 

 that fome other hills feem to be metallic ones. 



The Verde di Corfica is no marble, but a hard 

 rock, ftriking fire with fteel, of a white fubftance, 

 with blackifh or violet fpots, and large grafs-green 

 fherl cryftals, of a fweet colour. Large tables of 

 this fine ftone to be feen in the Capella di S. LG~ 

 renzo at Florence.
