OF THE PRECEDING PAGES. 
 TOUFA. 
————— = 
ALTHOUGH it may seem without the limits origin- 
ally proposed, yet I hope it will not be thought 
unnecessary to notice here, a substance, which was 
taken out of rather an extensive cave on the west- 
ern side of Hooe Lake, nearly at the extremity of 
the lime leading south. It is of an irregular, ob- 
long shape, is very light, white, and powdery, like 
chalk,—has a smoky smell, adheres to the tongue, 
and, in all essential points, answers to the descrip- 
tion of Toufa. The above is the only place in this 
neighbourhood where, I apprehend, this particular 
substance has been found.
