Water Spring

The crab whose habits I now describe has not previously been recorded as an inhabitant of British seas. I found two specimens, both male, imbedded in a patch of coarse shell sand on the south side of Drake's Island at low water, spring tides: one on August 11th, 1896, and the other on the following day.

The chief circumstance that induced Capt. Flinders to think his observations Upon the marine barometer were worthy of attention, was the coincidence that took place between the rising and falling of the mercury, and the setting in of winds that blew from the sea and from off the land, to which there seemed to be at least as much reference as to the strength of the wind or the state of the atmosphere. Our author’s examination of the coasts of New Holland and the other parts of the Terra Australis, began at Cape Leuwen, and con­tinued eastward along the south coast. His observations, which, on account of their length, we must pass over, show, that a change of wind from the northern half of the compass to any point in the southern half, caused the mercury to rise; and that a contrary change caused it to fall. Also, that the mercury stood considerably higher When the wind came from the south side of east and west, than when, in similar weather, it came from the north side.

Lovenula (Neolovenula) alluaudi is widespread on Lanzarote, where it occurred at 22 of the 105 stations. On Fuerteventura it was found at only 2 of the 53 stations, both in the extreme north-west part of the island. It was also found in a reservoir on the south side of the small island of Alegranza. Samples collected at several hundred stations in the other Canary Islands failed to yield a single calanoid, supporting the belief that the eastern islands are fragments of the African continent that drifted to deeper waters.

In an earlier paper the writer has discussed the paragenesis - kyanite-omphacite as observed in certain ec|ogites. The fate of this association under conditions of retrograde metamorphism has led to a consideration of rocks showing the paragenesis amphibole-kyanite, a point which is briefly taken up in the present communication. Rocks containing this latter assemblage include two groups, the one better known, of sedimentary origin, the other essentially igneous in origin.Here are included members of the para-amphibolites, biotite-hornblende- schists, and hornblende-Garbenschiefer derived from sediments of the character of calcareous and dolomitic shales. The best-known examples come from the Alps—particularly the Triassic and pre- Triassic sediments on the south side of the St. Gotthard massif.

SummaryClearly boudined and folded igneous sheets occur in Durness Limestone on the south side of the Tertiary Ben an Dubhaich granite. Obvious Tertiary dykes in nearby Mesozoic rocks are not deformed at all, nor has such deformation been described previously from the Caledonian activity in the Cambro-Ordovician of the north-west Highlands. Its appearance here does fit Clough's description (in Peach et al. 1907) of an unusually strong Caledonian penetrative deformation in the Strath Limestone, while the fact that all but one of the sheets are dolerites, a rock not elsewhere known from the Cambro-Ordovician but typical rather of the Tertiary activity for which Skye is famous, and that the other is a two feldspar porphyry very like the Ben an Dubhaich granite, point to the possibility of Tertiary deformation.

Wall Decoration

To either side of this main entranceway, on the street front, are fixed masonry seats. Such seats have been assumed to have been for waiting clients. However, in Pompeii these seats are not always in front of the largest and most elaborate houses, that is those whose occupants were likely to have had clients. They were therefore likely to have served as a public facility available to anyone, including the house occupants. No loose finds were reported from this entranceway. The only visible sign of possible post-eruption disturbance to the volcanic deposit is a small hole towards the south end of the east wall of this ‘atrium’. However, the hole seems too small to have been the breach made by a post-eruption intruder. Maiuri noted, that the wall decoration of this ‘atrium’ was of a fresh and well-preserved Fourth Style executed after the last transformation of the house. The pavement was in lavapesta. Fixtures here included a central catchment pool (impluvium), revetted in white marble that was damaged either before or during the eruption, and a lararium aedicula in the north-west corner. According to Maiuri, the aedicula was constructed after the last well-preserved wall decoration, but Ling believes they are contemporary. At least forty-five small bronze studs were found in the north-west corner of this area. These had decorated the wooden lattice of the aedicula, now reconstructed in plaster. All the other recorded moveable finds were from the south side of this space. These included: a household storage jar; two clay lamps; bronze and iron fittings, possibly from the closing system for room 8, the so-called ‘tablinum’; and bone fragments probably from a piece of furniture. In the south-west corner were found a large bronze basin and a bronze patera, both of which were conceivably associated with bathing. Contrary to what might be expected, no statuettes of Lares or other representations were found in the lararium aedicula. Maiuri therefore concluded that these must have been made of wood. If this were so, then the excavators, who were able to make a cast of the wooden latticing, would surely also have observed any statuettes inside the aedicula, objects which would seem to have been more important than the latticing.

Aesthetic Values

The introductory chapter establishes the significance of Pal Joey in its own time by delving into the more controversial aspects of the show and its reception. The unconventional qualities of Pal Joey begin with its setting (a “cheap” nightclub in the South Side of Chicago), its cynicism, and its sexually frank characters. Its brazen depiction of flawed people—desperately grasping for a more secure class position, for fame, for sex, or for love—divided critics; on one hand, Pal Joey was praised for its depiction of seemingly real-to-life people. On the other hand, critics questioned the merits of giving these characters time on stage. This chapter ends with a consideration of Pal Joey’s unsettled canonic status and its role in reinforcing aesthetic values that hardened in the mid-twentieth century, and still inform the reception of musical theater.

As If

In the month of December 1794, a labourer, employed to dig a drain through a marshy piece of ground, on the south side of the Quantock Hills in Somersetshire, found, about six feet beneath the surface, two rings, one lying on the other; within each of which was placed a celt, as represented in the annexed plate; he took them away with him when he left work; and on his return the following day he perceived the ground, where they had lain, was sunk, as if it had been hollow underneath: unfortunately, he searched no further. Of these curious articles of antient workmanship two celts, and one ring, which proved to be atorques, [Pl. XXIII.fig. 2.] were soon after sent to me; the othertorques, I understand, is in the possession of the owner of the estate. Concluding from the circumstance of the ground's sinking, that bones, or other sepulchral relicks, might be found, I obtained permission to open the place; which I accordingly did with the person who had made the discovery, but without success. This may, in some degree, be ascribed to a road having been made, and to other difficulties in ascertaining the exact spot which we were anxious to explore.

At a distance of about two and a half miles from Aberystwyth, the road leading eastwards towards Devil's Bridge curves round the north side of a small knoll on the ridge separating the larger valley of the Rheidol on the north from the smaller valley of the Paith on the south. The road here reaches a height of 400 feet and the knoll rises a further 100 feet above it. Opening directly from the south side of the road, a quarry (now disused) has been excavated in the knoll and in this quarry the Aberystwyth Grits present a very striking appearance, showing a zig-zag structure with one fold above the other.

Two new sites of the Cape Dorset Eskimo culture were discovered, and partially excavated, by the author in 1935 and 1936. Both of them lie on the south side of Hudson Strait: one, examined in 1935, is on the south side of McLelan Strait, a narrow channel which divides Killinek Island from the northern tip of the Labrador, and contained both modern and Cape Dorset material; the other, which was examined in 1936, is on Nuvuk, an island or a group of islands, lying about thirty miles south-west of Cape Wolstenholme, at the west end of Hudson Strait, and contained only Cape Dorset material, with the exception of some quite obviously modern objects lying on the surface.
