﻿NOETH 
  OF 
  ENGLAND 
  

  

  Our 
  Mr. 
  W. 
  M. 
  Foote 
  recently 
  spent 
  two 
  weeks 
  in 
  thoroughly 
  searching 
  the 
  

   best 
  localities 
  of 
  Cumberland 
  and 
  Durham. 
  Everything 
  obtainable 
  in 
  good 
  

   specimens 
  was 
  purchased 
  and 
  partial 
  shipments, 
  including 
  the 
  pick 
  of 
  the 
  entire 
  

   assortment, 
  have 
  just 
  been 
  placed 
  on 
  sale 
  in 
  Philadelphia. 
  The 
  crystals 
  of 
  Dal- 
  

   mallington 
  and 
  Mowbray 
  Mine 
  Barites, 
  found 
  in 
  new 
  types 
  within 
  the 
  last 
  year, 
  

   are 
  far 
  the 
  choicest 
  examples 
  of 
  this 
  species 
  yet 
  seen. 
  We 
  state 
  without 
  fear 
  of 
  

   contradiction, 
  that 
  they 
  comprise 
  the 
  finest 
  shipment 
  of 
  Barites 
  which 
  has 
  ever 
  been 
  

   sent 
  to 
  this 
  country. 
  The 
  large 
  variety 
  of 
  minerals 
  common 
  to 
  the 
  district 
  are 
  

   offered 
  in 
  excellent 
  specimens 
  at 
  lowest 
  prices, 
  although 
  the 
  very 
  best 
  come 
  high. 
  

   We 
  hope 
  to 
  have 
  a 
  supplementary 
  consignment 
  in 
  hand 
  previous 
  to 
  this 
  publica- 
  

   tion, 
  thus 
  permittiDgus 
  to 
  offer 
  specimens 
  ranging 
  between 
  50c. 
  and 
  $20.00. 
  

  

  Scheelite. 
  

  

  Massive, 
  showing

   regular 
  habit. 
  Some 
  measure 
  from 
  i 
  to 
  £ 
  inches 
  across, 
  and 
  a 
  resemblance

   noted 
  to 
  the 
  specimens 
  from 
  Traversella 
  in 
  both 
  lustre 
  and 
  form. 
  Not 
  showy, 
  

   but 
  a 
  typical 
  example 
  of 
  the 
  mineral 
  from 
  a 
  new 
  locality 
  in 
  New 
  South 
  Wales.

  An 
  odd 
  association 
  should 
  be 
  represented 
  — 
  brilliant 
  blades 
  of 
  Stibnite 
  inlaid 
  

   and 
  coating 
  the 
  massive 
  Scheelite. 
  Strange 
  combination 
  of 
  sulphide 
  and 
  tung- 
  

   state, 
  the 
  effect 
  as 
  a 
  contrast 
  being 
  most 
  pleasing.

  to

  and 
  wondrous 
  beauty. 
  No 
  need 
  

   to 
  describe 
  Azurite. 
  Every 
  one 
  with 
  an 
  appreciation 
  of 
  the 
  beautiful 
  in 
  nature

  the 
  insignificance 
  of 
  words.

  is 
  fresh 
  

   material

   advantage 
  of 
  an 
  opportunity

  favorable.

  blue 
  and 
  green, 
  the 
  exqui- 
  

   site 
  delicacy

  its 
  crystallization, 
  and

  rare 
  occurrence,
