succession — dark mica schist, gneissic mica schist, pale mica schist with 

 potash-mica, red gneiss ; the last appears as alternating bands, and is 

 certainly not eruptive. The microscopic character of each is described, 

 and analyses given. The movements of the beds, anticlinals, faults, 

 &c. are noticed, and the metallic veins, while the eruptive rocks are 

 described elsewhere. E. B, T.

The author thinks that the direction and position of the valleys, 

 fjords, lakes, &c., as well as the boundaries of the high plateaux, owe 

 their origin to certain series of parallel fissures, which cross the whole 

 country in certain directions (N.E.-S.W., N.W.-S.E., E.-W., and 

 N.-S.), and divide it into separate parts, some of which are lifted up 

 higher than others. The map shows the occurrence of such fissure- 

 lines, and their relation to the present geographical aspect of the 

 country. - E. E.
