NEW ARRIVALS OF MINERALS. 



Giant Selenites from Utah. — A new lot has been received a few of which 

 can be sold as follows : 



No, i. 4 feet long, 1 foot in diameter. $50.00. 



No. 2. 2 crystals crossed, 3 feet long, each about 9 inches diameter. $50.00. 



No. 3. 3 feet long, 1 foot diameter. $40.00. 



No. 4. 2 feet 6 inches long, 9 inches diameter. $35.00. 



No. 5. 18 inches long, 9 inches diameter, double terminations. $25.00. 



No. 6. 18 inches long, 6 inches thick. $15 00. 



All the above are quite well terminated and but very little bruised. All are 

 quite smooth on several of the faces and several are quite bright. 



They are undoubtedly the most magnificent specimens ever seen, though for 

 lustre and beauty they will not compare with the brilliant specimens from Sicily. 

 These are certainly unique, especially those which show arragonite, sulphur, etc. 

 in their limpid depths. Some have apparently liquid sulphuretted hydrogen en- 

 closed, being extraordinarily fetid. Specimens from Sicily 10c. to $15.00. The 

 sulphurs which I recently brought from Sicily are the finest ever ' seen. The 

 sphenoid and other rare forms are well represented. Specimens at all prices. 



For many months past from 500 to 2000 specimens have been unpacked weekly. 

 TJ ie stock is now many times the finest in the world. As we received and adver- 

 tised the Eubellites from California about a year ago, over six months before any 

 other dealer, we have still the largest, finest and cheapest stock. Good specimens 

 showing radiations, some extraordinarily fine, from 5c. upwards. Svabite, Boleite r 

 Hauerite, and hundreds of other new species recently unpacked.
