51. Map Iceland. — The Danish Government has resu- 
med the trigonometrical and hydrographical survey of Iceland, 
which had been interrupted during the war. It is proposed to 
publish the map in seven sheets ; three sheets we understand are 
already published. The care of the publication is committed to 
Admiral Lowenorn. 
52. Charts of the Baltic. —Of late years the Swedes have 
been much occupied in hydrographical investigations. Much 
has been done under the direction of that excellent officer Ad- 
miral Klint ; and lately, under his superintendence, there has 
been executed a series of charts of the Baltic, which are by far 
the most accurate hitherto laid before the public. The Danes 
remark of the English charts of the Baltic, with what justice we 
know not, that they are beautifully engraved, but very inaccu- 
rate.

In the mineralogical report of Lapland presented to the Swedish

height to fall 400 feet perpendicular.
