that I have included in the cast of the olfactory lobes of the 
brain of Coryphodon that of a part of the nasal cavity also. - Prof. 
Marsh fails to point out the qualifying remarks to be found in my 
descriptions. In the explanation of Plate I of the Proceedings 
of the American Philosophical Society, 1877, p. 620, I say, 
“the right bulbus of the olfactory lobe is probably too large 
above, owing to the want of preservation of the superior wall o 
the cavity.” In my quarto report to Lieut. G. M. Wheeler, in 
vol. iv., p. 223, of his report to the Chief of Engineers, I remark: 
“In excavating the matrix from the olfactory chambers some 
difficulty was experienced in attempting to lay bare the superior 
and inferior walls, etc. On one side of the bulb this boundary was
