Two Remarkable Well-known Collections. 



We have secured two collections which, if we mentioned their owners' 

 names, would cause surprise. The collections, one of Fine Minerals, and 

 the other of Bare Indian Relies, are so choice, that it does not need the 

 names of their collectors to sell them. We were so husy with our mining 

 exhibition that no special mention could be made in this advertisement. 

 They will be on exhibition on and after May first (1st). First come, first 

 served, as we have no time to get out Circular letters. Particulars on appli- 

 cation.

Some of the finest of these specimens still remain. A few we name

 tals in the matrix ; Thorite crystals ; Gadolinite crystals ; Polycrase, crys-

THE NEW CRYSTALLIZED NATIVE COPPER 



_ which was advertised and illustrated in the March No. of this Journal met 

 with the approval and admiration of our foremost Colleges and collectors. Of 

 the 10 specimens which we had, one was sold to the American Museum of Nat- 

 ural History, one to Harvard University, two to Yale University and one to a 



. prominent collector. 



As these Colleges have the most extensive and valuable collections in this 

 country, the purchase of these specimens shows their great beauty and rarity. 

 Five specimens yet remain, price $10 to $70.

 make up into jewelry. These rubies are as good as the natural ones, if not 

 better ; they have the same hardness, also the same true pigeon-blood color.
