Pyrolusite crystals from Giessen, Germany; after calcitefrom Ilmenau; also crystals in geode from Ilmenau; a remarkablepseudomorph after scalenohedral calcite from Ilfeld, Hartz; stoutcrystals from Mexico; Michigan specimens; with others follow. The Diaspora from Chester Co., Pennsylvania, as might beanticipated is fine. There are large light yellow and purple crystals,some types, and typical specimens from Chester, Mass., and a speci-men, of some age, formerly Dr. Leidys, from Franklin, N.
