nel, and gradually and regularly tapers to its termimation, which is 
near the end of the body. The lateral lobes are rounded. The 
costal arches of the abdomen have a furrow scooped out of their up- 
per surface, and their outward extremities terminate in obtuse points, 
between which there is a raised line. The caudal arches are not 
grooved, but there is a faint impressed line running along their up- 
per surface, which is slightly bifurcated at their termination. 
This beautiful and highly interesting trilobite was found by Mr. 
George L. Le Row, of Poughkeepsie, N. Y., to whose kindness I 
owe this opportunity of describing it. The specific name is given 
in compliment to the discoverer. ‘There is a strong analogy in some 
jeading particulars between this species and our C. Diops. Pro- 
fessor Dalman’s C. Concinna represented on his first plate, fig. 5, a 
5 and c, comes very near it, but there are many marked differences 
between them. Mr. Le Row ina letter to me states, “‘ the locality 
of this trilobite is just out of the village of Fly creek, three miles 
from Cooperstown, in Otsego town and county, N. Y., on the land 
of a Mr. Williams. No other specimen has been found there. I 
possess the body of one of the same species obtained about half a 
mile from the above locality.” In the Poughkeepsie Telegraph, 
Nov. 22d, 1837, Mr. Le Row has given a figure of our trilobite, ac- 
companied by the following remarks: ‘‘ The above specimen of a 
trilobite was obtained during the past summer, about three miles 
south of the head waters of the Susquehannah river ; it is peculiarly 
perfect, and the engraving exhibits the outlines of the fossil in a re- 
markably distinct manner.”* {t was found imbedded in a layer of 
soft argillite, slichtly ferruginous, and of such is the fossil composed. 
The strata in which it was found was filled with orthocere and numer- 
ous other fossils. Immediately under this layer is another of argil- 
lite, of harder texture and darker color, and free from petrifactions. 
12. Difference between the English Porcelain and that of Ger- 
many and of the continent.—F rom an eminent individual perfectly 
acquainted with both the science and practice of making porcelain, 
and familiar with the principal establishments in Europe, we learn 
the following facts :— 
* The figure alluded to is beatifully executed, but the representation of the 
front of the buckler is by no means exact.
