the curious forms of the weathered basaltic caps and ridges of the 

 mountains in the Konkun. 



The elevations were determined either barometrically, or thermome- 

 trically. Those marked " B." in the subjoined description are baro- 

 metrical, and result from simultaneous observations with previously- 

 compared barometers ; all the necessary corrections having been ap- 

 plied, for temperature, moisture, and latitude. Those marked " W." 

 were obtained by ascertaining the boiling-point of water at different 

 elevations with delicate thermometers : they are not to be relied upon 

 within one hundred feet, although in some instances, when tested by 

 barometrical measurements, they corresponded within a few feet.
