forming part of the massive steatite.—To these 
are added some substances which are allied to 
the preceding, though different from them with 
regard to their chemical composition ; such as the 
agalmatolite of Klaproth (bildstein of Werner, 
talc glaphique of Haiiy), employed by the Chinese 
for carving images, vessels, &c.—The Iceffeldl or 
meerschaum, from Natolia, of which pipe bowls 
are made ; and a related substance, called heffelci- 
lite by Dr. Fischer, who discovered it in the 
Crimea.— Lithomarge , the more remarkable varie¬ 
ties of which are, that of a reddish yellow colour, 
from Kochlitz, in porphyry; the fine purplish 
blue variety from Planitz, called terra miraculosa 
Saronica by old writers.— Fullers’ earth.—Bole ; 
green earth , &c. 
(Case 19.) In this and the four following glass- 
cases are deposited the various carbonates of 
lime .—Crystallized carbonate of lime or calca¬ 
reous spar; specimens illustrative of the cleavage, 
supernumerary joints, colour, &c. \ primitive rhom- 
bohedron (rhomboid) ; the various secondary 
rhombohedrons (all of which, together with the 
modifications in the next cases, are determined 
after Haiiy and Bournon) : among these the most 
common, but not the least striking, is the inverse 
rhombohedron, so called from being as it were an 
inversion of the primitive ; the same with a con¬ 
siderable admixture of quartz, commonly called 
crystallized sandstone of Fontainebleau, &c. &c.
