Abstract
The advice given by a distinguished French savant many years ago to one of us, then full of zeal to discover geological phænomena unknown to his contemporaries, was,—“Examine the travelling map of the region in which you may happen to be, and wherever you see a tract void of all post roads, go thither, and you will infallibly meet with something new to science.” This suggestion has since been our guiding rule in many excursions, including several visits to the insulated mountain-tracts of the Thüringerwald and the Harz, which in bygone years were traversed by no post roads, and which in these days of rapid locomotion are avoided by all railroads.
