  • Sir,—In Number IV. of these notes, that on the Crystalline Rocks of Upper Egypt, I have mentioned the apparent absence of limestone from the Laurentian series as seen at Assouan. I should have added, however, that some of the crumbling schists seen in the low land east of the railway cutting resembled very closely the calcareous schists associated with the Grenville bed of Limestone on the Ottawa River, and gave the impression that Crystalline Limestone might not improbably occur in that vicinity.

  • Under What Cirucumstances is an Island to be Considered “Oceanic”?

  • Sir,—If I correctly apprehend Mr. Fisher's reasoning, it is impossible to determine whether an island is “Oceanic” or not until it be known whether at any period in its geological history it has been connected with an existing continent. This is unfortunate; for the advocates of the permanency of oceans and continents insist that “oceanic islands” throw great light upon the problem. It would appear that they have been, as I pointed out in my first communication, arguing in a circle and from “phrases,” not ascertained facts.
