After giving an account of the work of previous observers, the writer 



states that both the glacial clay and the glacial sand are found above 



the bottom-gravel, which in this district reposes on the rock. After 



their deposition these stratified formations were partially destroyed, 



crushed, and twisted in a striking manner. "What is left of them is 



covered by the more recent angular gravel, which, however, is seen 



often lying immediately upon the older gravel. In its turn this more 



recent gravel is covered by a second newer set of glacial sands and clays 



underlying the postglacial deposits. This arrangement disproves in 



part the theory that the angular gravel is the oldest of the post-Tertiary 



beds of Sweden. The plates consist of 12 coloured sections and one 



emaU contoured map (scale 1 : 50,000). G. A. L.

A description of the geological sections on the southern side of the 



Kaisergebirg in Bavaria, and an attempt to compare the relations of the 



beds in the Northern and the Southern Alps. The formations described 



are the Bunter sandstone, Muschelkalk, Partnach beds (Lower Cardita- 



beds), Wetterstein limestone, and the Raibl beds (so-called Upper 



CarcUta-hcdi%). Sections are given in woodcuts. F. W. R.
