Essay, C 273 
On the further route between the Gunung 
Lawet in the East, and the hili Pawinian in the 
West, I noticed numerous fragments accidental- 
ly detached. from this pile: they were remark- 
able on account of the regularity of their 
form, which was mostly tabular, the angles were 
defined and still entire, bearing no marks of ex- 
ternal attrition. Here I also found several 
other substances (of the same Floetz trap forma- 
tion according to Werner), but apparently of 
a more recent deposition: the most interesting. 
“were several varieties of Sand-stone, one of 
which consisted of small uniform Lamina, about 
a line in thickness regularly imposed on each 
other, with defined sides and angles: in a se- 
cond the fracture was uniform (like common 
.Sand.stone) and the separate fragments appeared 
in rhomboidal and trapezoidal masses. 
- After passing the ravine between the mountains 
Pawinian and Lawer, a considerable prospect is 
afforded of the adjacent country in the North 
the hill Te/ogo-leli is the second point, in this 
part of the central ranges, deserving notice on 
account of ics elevation; at the fooc of it the 
river Uren is observed winding inadeep stoney 
valley ; numerous small hills, irregularly scat- 
terred, are observed in this tract, rounded on 
the surface and covered with a deep soil, The 
road now took a western direction, following 
for several miles the northern declivities of the 
hill Pawinian, which here is chiefly formed of 
adeposition from water, in many places conceal- 
ed by a deep earth or by a vegetable mould, in
