names of thallite, arendalit, akantikon, del- 
phinite^ arc Hauy's epidote, and Werner's pis- 
tacite : of which several specimens are deposited 
in this case. Among these is also the violet 
manganesiferous epidote, referred by some to the 
ores of manganese.— Zoisite. — Axinite, various- 
ly crystallized^ from Dauphin^ &c. — The py- 
roxene tribe, comprizing the augite, in separate 
crystals and imbedded in Vesuvian lava, toge- 
ther with groups of well defined crystals from 
Arendahl in Norway, where it occurs in primi- 
tive rocks, and the granular augite or coccolite ; 
the variety of diopside (now pyroxene) called 
alalite ; the salite or malacolite, a species per- 
fectly distinct from the common augite or py- 
roxene. — With these is placed a specimen of the 
Ilvait 5 a new mineral substance from the island 
of Elba : it is known also by the absurd names of 
jenite and yenite.— The remaining substances in 
this case relate to the hornblende or amphibolic 
minerals, which are continued in the two next 
cases : — balsaltic hornblende from Vesuvius, com- 
mon hornblende, &c. 
(Case 15 and pari of iS.) Continuation of am-
