72. — Travertine with dendritic appearances, between Hyderabad and 

 Beder. 



73. — Amygdaloid associated with the great overlying trap formation of 

 the Deccan, containing globules of a species of zeolite, resembling apo- 

 phyllite in its behaviour before the blow-pipe — frosted pearly exterior, and 

 peculiar splendent planes. It exfoliates, curls, and froths, bef ore the 

 blow-pipe, and finally melts into a white enamel. This amygdaloid also 

 contains cale-spar, mesotype, and stilbite. It is from Ipperghi, near 

 the boundary of the Solapoor Rajah's country. 



74. — Stellated zeolite in rhomboidal calc-spar, Solapoor territory. This 

 is an interesting specimen, showing the gradual pseudo-morphic changes 

 of the two minerals. A white zone appears to define the limits of each, 

 beyond this they become in a certain degree blended : the zeolitic rays 

 may be seen decussating and diverging from their several centres, through 

 the transparent substance of the calc-spar. 



75. — Radiated zeolite — rolled fragments from the bed of the Bhima — - 

 Nizam's territories. 



76. — Red jasper from the Kistnah — do. 



77. — Yellow jasper from the Malpurba— Southern Mahratta Country. 



78. — Mocha stone, enclosing nest of quartz, bed of the Bhima. 



79. — Cornelian — bed of the Kistnah, at Paugtoor. 



80. — Calcedony — botryoidal, from the vicinity of Ipperghi — Solapoor 

 Rajah's territory. 



81. — Oriental agate. — Numerous specimens of this beautiful mineral, 

 some assimilating the onyx, sarde, and sardonyx, I have already for- 

 warded to the Society, as also of glauconite, various kinds of zeolite, 

 chrysoprase, heliotrope, &c., occurring in the flcetz trap formation of the 

 Deccan. 



82. — Agate imbedding quartz. 



83. — Moss agate — bed of the Kistnah, at Paugtoor. 



84. — Amethystine quartz crystal, from Golconda— Hyderabad. 



85. — Do. do. from Cupputral, Ceded Districts, where the sandstone 

 comes in contact with the granite. 



86. — Pale buff coloured sparry limestone, associated with the over- 

 lying trap formation of the Deccan and the laterite. Locality, hills of 

 Ingliswara, near Baugwari— Bijapore territory. 



87. — Variety — reddish. 



88. — Limestone, greyish white, imbedding broken fragments of bi- 

 valved shells, converted into chert, associated with the overlying trap 

 formation near its southern limit, between Hyderabad and Beder.
