The occurrences are grouped by age, and then by districts. Pirst are 

 given the coals of Aquitanian age (Oligocene or L. Miocene), or those 

 below the " Leithakalk ; " these are brown coals and better than the 

 more recent ones. In Warasdin district 30 occurrences are described ; 

 the beds average from 3-5 feet. Prom other districts 8 are added. In 

 the Sarmatic stage occurrences of coal are rarer. In the Congeria- 

 beds the coals are lignites ; of this age 23 occurrences are noted. 

 Analyses are given, and the heating-power (fee. of many of the coals 

 are compared. E. B. T.

 Adduces evidence that the deposits of Iladoboj, containing remains 

 of insects, are referable to the lower division of the Sarmatian Beds.

A detailed description, with a discussion on the Permian rocks, which 

 have been differently interpreted. The other formations described are 

 L. Lias, Sequanian, Gypseous beds of Yaren, and phosphatic deposits 

 (L. Eocene). As a means of limiting the area within which the last 

 may be searched for, the author states that all the district above 350 

 metres was never submerged in Tertiary times. The gypseous beds of 

 Yaren, which have hitherto figured as Trias, are Eocene. The Se- 

 quanian of La Rochelle is well represented in the department, where it 

 had not been noticed previously. The Lower Lias is here, as in the 

 Aveyron, composed in great part of magnesian rocks, and is almost 

 without fossils. The Permian exists in the valley of the Ceron ; but 

 the marine Zechstein, which M. Magnan described, does not exist, and 

 its place is taken on the map by Lower Lias. G. A. L.
