He has also sent in the box some pretty specimens of Magnetic Iron sand in layers, 

 interleaved in fact, with sandstone, from the Luckee Dowar lower range of the Garrow 



Hais. 



Mr. Watkin, who superintends the Raneegunge Coal mines, having visited the Museum 

 about a year ago, and being kind enough to offer his services, I gave him some tin boxes 

 arranged for receiving specimens of the vegetable impressions of their coal shales. The 

 boxes, which it appears have remained in Calcutta for some six months, have now reach- 

 ed us with a good assortment of the impressed shales which are of great interest. 



Our Secretary has sent us a lump of clay impregnated with quicksilver, found on dig- 

 ing away some ruins near the old Mint, no doubt the produce of some broken package 

 in the olden time. 



From Mr. Higgins, an officer of the steamer Fire Queen, we have received by Mr. 

 Blyth, a lump of black concretion which was taken from one of the flues of the steamer 

 boilers at a spot where it was leaky. It proves to be nothing but a mixture of salt from 

 the evaporation of the water oozing through the leak, and the carbonaceous matter of the 

 smoke, but it is so far curious that it shows, like the sparks at the top of the funnel, the 

 very imperfect combustion of the fuel, which is here in coarse grains, and, it may be, 

 would account for some cases of explosion. 



H. PlDDINGTON. 



For all the foregoing communications and presentations the hest 

 thanks of the Society were accorded.
