(The late) Geo. Tate. Northumberland. 

 On a Toad in a Limestone Rock at Whittle. [This toad said to have been 

 found in- Carboniferous Limestone. The idea scouted as to its having been 

 thus enclosed ; the Limestone being of marine origin, and toads not in existence 

 at the time.] Proc. Berwickshire Nat. Club, 1884, pp. 505, 506. 



J.J. H. Teall. Northumberland, Cumberland. 



On some Quartz-Felsites and Augite-Granites from the Cheviot District. 



[The author describes fully the varieties of quartz-felsite met with in the 

 Cheviots, and also certain granites remarkable for containing augite as well as 

 biotite ; and speculates on the relations of the two rocks. The paper also 

 contains Dr. Petersen's analyses of a hypersthene-andesite and a porphyrite 

 from the same district, and of their respective ground -masses ; and refers to 

 the felsite of Carrock Fell, Cumberland, and its relations.] Geol. Mag.,

 showing in relief some fine specimens of Woodocrinus macrodactylus.}

Rev. J. Stanley Tute. Yorkshire. 

 Note on Spirangium carbonarium, with woodcut. [This specimen discovered 

 in breaking a sandstone boulder from the Drift, probably derived from one of 

 the members of the Yoredale series.] Proc. Yorks. Geol. and Pol. Soc,

 showing the range of Carboniferous Polyzoa in the Yoredale rocks. Detailed 

 descriptions of species, several of them being new forms.] Proc. Yorks. Geol.

 On the Manufacture of Salt in Cheshire. [Historical account of salt trade 

 given ; a short review of the geology of the Cheshire salt beds ; a description of 

 the process of manufacturing common salt ; statistics of trade and other 

 valuable information.] Memoirs of Manch. Lit. and Phil. Soc, Third Series,

Thomas Ward. Cheshire. 

 On the Action of Water upon beds of Rock Salt. [Phenomena exhibited by 

 the action of water upon beds of Rock Salt carefully dealt with in classes — viz:, 

 Water in a state of rest ; Water descending by gravitation and passing over 

 beds of salt in its course to a lower level ; Water descending by gravitation to 

 beds of salt below the surface of the earth, and reappearing as brine springs 

 at the surface, but at a higher level than the salt beds ; Natural Water set in 

 motion, or its motion accelerated by artificial means, such as pumps ; Water 

 conveyed artificially to salt beds, and then pumped up again.] Proc. Manch. 

 Lit. and Phil. Soc, 1883-4, xxiii, 5-28.
