Piedmont;—the sahlite or malacolite, to which 
also belongs the baikalite , of which a few fine 
specimens are here deposited ; the pyrgome or 
fassaite , and the euchysiderite , also called fu¬ 
sible augite. The metalloid diallage or dial- 
lagite , also called schiller-spar, from the Hartz, 
Salzburg, &c.; the bronzite and the liypersthene 
(Labrador hornblende of Werner), may like¬

cified the mineral substances which have been 
described under the appellations of thallite, 
arendalite, acanticone, delphinite, &c., which 
are Werner’s pistacite , and are now more gene¬ 
rally designated by the name of epidote y given 
to them by Haiiy. To this also belongs the 
manganesiferous epidote , referred by some to the

Laxmann on the banks of the Vilui in Kam-

from Vesuvius, where this substance occurs ac¬ 
companied by other volcanic ejections, have, in 
Italy, obtained the name of Vesuvian gems, 
hyacinths, and chrysolites;—the varieties called 
egerane , loboite , and that from Tellemarken in 
Norway, coloured blue by oxide of copper, and 
known by the name of cyprine;—essonite or 
cinnamon -
