GEOLOGICAL RESULTS : SUGGESTIONS. 
To the Editor of The Journal of Science . 
Sir,— In my letter last month I omitted to state (what may pos- 
sibly have at once presented itself to many minds) that faults of 
the kind referred to, instead of being roughly like a Y, are more 
likely to be X*shaped, or crossed ; in which case the explanation 
would be obvious, viz., first one fault occurred, and then a second 
definitely afterwards, across the former, indications whereof could 
be traced by inspection. But is it so ? I am inclined to think 
the Y-shape are the more likely. 
In case there was not the continuation at all* at the V base, I 
should suggest it was the result of an upheaval, where the ground 
opened fan-like ; therefore it is possible such would be found 
wider at the top of the individual fault itself than at the base, 
and the wedge might have slipped farther in, thus presenting a 
peculiar appearance. However, these are but suggestions thrown 
out for what they are worth.— I am, &c.,
