THE PRESENT STATE OF THE BRIDLINGTON CRAG. 
To the Editors of Tar GroLocicaL MAGAZINE. 
Mr. S. P. Woopwarp has stated, in his paper on the Bridlington 
Crag, upon the authority of Mr. William Bean, of Scarborough, that 
‘the whole mass has been entirely removed or built over,’ and that 
‘the only remaining chance of obtaining the fossils consists of 
dredging in the harbour.’ I beg to state that, during the prevalence 
of south-east winds, large tracts of the Bridlington Crag are exposed 
by the removal of the sand and gravel which generally lie over it 
from low to high water-mark, leaving it bare sometimes for weeks 
together. At other times, however, it remains covered up beneath 
thousands of tons of sand and gravel; and I have waited for years, 
hoping the sea would remove the surface, but it did not do so. At 
length, in January last the tide laid bare about 150 yards of the 
Crag for nearly a fortnight, and I collected a good series of fossil 
shells, &c. Only the upper portion of the deposit immediately 
under the cliff has been walled up; all the rest can be seen at 
intervals when exposed by the sea between tide-marks. I send you 
a Bear’s tooth which was obtained from the Bridlington Crag.*— 
Yours, &c. Epwarp TINDALL.

Notre rrom Mr. 8S. P. Woopwarp, F.G.S., &c. &c., ON THE 
BRIpLINGTON CRAG. 
In my paper last month, Montacuta bidentata is mentioned as a 
Bridlington Fossil in Dr. Bowerbank’s collection, on the authority 
of Professor Edward Forbes. I have just obtained the very speci- 
men, and it is labelled on the back of the tablet ‘Nar Valley’ 
(Norfolk), where it was found by Mr. C. B. Rose.—S. P. W.

DiIscovERY OF AN A#ROLITE, AND VISIT TO A PETRIFIED Forest 
IN NORTHERN QUEENSLAND. — At the monthly meeting of the 
Queensland Philosophical Society, on the 2nd of February last, Mr. 
Le Gould read a paper entitled ‘Geographical and Geological 
Observations in Northern Queensland.’ We extract the following :— 
Mr. Le Gould says, ‘ When two days’ march beyond the Isaaes, a 
beautiful stream, and the first branch of the Mackenzie River, 
passing along a rocky valley, covered with large ferns and some 
good-sized trees growing about, I came upon a large gum-tree, 
* The tooth referred to is a canine tooth of the Brown Bear (Ursus arctos), 
hitherto only obtained from the fens of Cambridgeshire, &e.—Ebrr.
