Dr Fleming read the following passage from Townson's “Tracts and Observations in Natural History,” Edin. 1799, when treating of the “Rocks in the Vicinity of Edinburgh:”—“The first of the chains or ranges of rocks that I lately described, as lying at the back of Salisbury Crags, extends from Arthur Seat to St Anthony's chapel. It is composed of basalt and sandstone, neither of which are like the whin and sandstone of Salisbury Crags. The basalt is the same as that near Duddingston Loch.
