S. 55° E.; on Jay’s Peak, north of the latter, S. 50° E.; in 
Stowe, in the valley east of Mt. Mansfield, S. 35° E. Judging 
m the map in the Vermont Geological Report, which gives 
some observations not registered in the text, the average course 
on the higher lands away from the valleys is about S. 50° EH. ; 
and the same is not far from the course for the higher lands of 
New Hampshire, according to Prof. C. H. Hitchcock’s map. 
The facts show plainly that on the higher lands, both east
