NOTICE. 



It is recommended to all those who desire to preserve the large geological map 

 accompanying this Report, to cut it out and paste it on linen. The mode of exe- 

 cuting this operation successfully is as follows: — Damp the linen; stretch it 

 firmly on a flat board by tacking it down ; paste the back of the map with smooth, 

 well-made flour paste, applied with a large, stiff, flat brush ; lay the pasted surface 

 on the stretched linen, taking care to exclude all air from between the surfaces, by 

 holding the edges of the sheet up, and allowing its centre first to come in contact 

 with the linen ; press the two surfaces together from the centre towards the sides 

 and edges, through the medium of a cloth.
