Theoretical Astropetrology.—The few facts known under this 
head, (i. e. which relate to the origin and formation of meteor- 
masses, the changes they have undergone from the various con- 
ditions in which they have been placed, and speculations regard- : 
ing any traces of life they may contain,) have induced me to post- 
pone any detail of them, to a fuller report on this branch of know! 
edge, which I hope to submit to the Association at a future period.
