My tracing the course of this bed vein of Limestone I have only marked its general direction. It has as yet received little or no attention. Its topography if materials can be obtained may be the subject of some future communication. The attention of D. Macbride has traced it accurately through St. John & the adjoining parish of St. Mathew. And from him and from a few other persons, I have obtained some fine specimens of the marine productions imbedded in this rock. These specimens are however yet too few to be worth enumerating. I shall only remark that many of them are now inhabitants of the West Indies and are not found at present on our own coast. Some are still common on our coast and others are to me altogether unknown.
From any gentlemen of leisure and observation who reside in the course of this vein I would solicit information on the following points. 1. Its general course, direction, limits, its branches, and whether bounded by water courses. 2. Its general depth under the surface of the earth. 3. Its influence on the soil, on vegetation. 4. Its effect if ascertained when applied as a manure on the surface of the land. 5. Specimens of all the species of shells, bones, &c. which it contains. 6. Accurate observations on its [spring?].
[reverse] Local plants Aster liatroides. Thymbra. Ceratiola.
