 The district known as the Cujavisch tableland, in the eastern part 

 of Bromberg, lying about 400 feet above the level of the Baltic, has 

 been known to contain deposits of salt, a weak brine -spring having 

 been discovered in a deep boring for water about 30 years back ; but 

 no steps were taken towards further discoveries, owing to the isolated 

 character of the country and the comparative want of fuel. These 

 difficulties having been to some extent obviated by the construction of 

 railways, further search has been made, resulting in the discovery, at a 

 depth of about 420 feet, of a bed of very pure rock-salt, which was 

 not gone through in a further depth of 600 feet. Other borings have 

 proved its extension over a length of about 1\ mile. This salt is 

 probably Permian, and is covered by gypsum-beds and limestones, 

 the latter probably Upper Jurassic. In the lower ground below the 

 salt-bearing rocks a considerable thickness of Tertiary sands and clays 

 has been found, containing lignite, occasionally in beds up to 20 feet 

 thick, and very pure iron-pyrites. The author considers that the joint 

 association of salt, pyrites, and lignite renders the district well suited 

 for the establishment of alkali-works. H. B.

 A continuation (see Geological IIecord for 1874, p. 95). Sum- 

 marizes results from the examination of the lower zone of the Newer 

 Pliocene, showing that contemporaneous beds may differ entirely in 

 fossils, from one being deep-water and the other a shore-deposit. The 

 characteristic fossils of each facies are noted ; about 19 p. c. are extinct 

 species. Passes next to the upper zone. The columns of localities are 

 divided into 2 categories, littoral and submarine, while there are 3 for 

 localities with a mixed faun a — taken as a proof of the contemporaneity 

 of the 2 categories. Over 900 species are noted in the list, which 

 will bo continued. E. B. T.
