rose-red or pink as its prevailing color. The blue tints are 
wanting, so far as the specimens thus far submitted show; but 
a grayish-white, like that of common feldspar, is the most com- 
mon shade. The most characteristic associated species would 
appear to be arfvedsonite of a grayish, brownish black color, 
often in crystals and coarse fibres interpenetrating the corun- 
dum. It also occurs in short crystals and even granular, of a 
rich grass-green color, coating or including small ae tep and 
lamine of the ru y,——constituting a rock of much _ beauty.

gneiss, that also embraces granular epidote, such as occurs at 
Grace mountain, in Warwic ass. 
The foregoing include all the species I have thus far had sub- 
mitted to my notice, as belonging to the corundum formations 
dolomitic limestone, containing scales of hae was se ent, 
only as having been found in the vicinity of the Cullakenee
