14. Second edition of Clcav eland'' s Miuerulogy. 



A review of this valuable work appeared in Vol. I. pa 35 

 of this Journal. We have found no occasion to alter the 

 favourable opinion there expressed ; nor are the alterations 

 in this edition sufficiently numerous to demand any new re- 

 marks. 



One hundred and fifty-two pages of new matter, occupied 

 chiefly by accounts of American localities have been added. 

 " A few descriptions of new species and varieties have been 

 introduced, and an appendix on meteoric stones." Some 

 alterations — chiefly in arrangement, have been made, in con- 

 sequence of the suggestions of friends in private commu- 

 nications, of reviews, &ic. They are such as meet our appro- 

 bation, and we doubt not that this excellent work will in its 

 improved form, continue to receive, both at home and 

 abroad, those decided marks of public favour, which were 

 30 liberally bestowed on the first edition.
