EXTENSIVE AND VALUABLE COLLECTION OF MINERALS. 



Mr. TENNANT bought at the Stowe Sale the Duke of Buckingham's Collection

 thirty drawers, with a glass case on the top for large specimens, and is offered at 

 £2,000. 



Such a Collection is well adapted for any pubHc Institution, or any gentleman 

 interested in mining pursuits or practical geology, as some of the specimens are 

 finer than those in the British Museum.
