" Again, this able advocate of the Scriptural Deluge observes (we copy from Art. X. , vol. 7, Lowdon's Magazine, p. 43), "No man will surely " tell us that the Belemnites, the Ammonites, the "Trochites, the Nautiles, and the Gryphites "found in the lowest strata of the alum shale of " Yorkshire, are of a totally different order from "those of the same name in this district, and in " the chalk and limestone ranges of the South of " England ! " Notwithstanding this remonstrance however, Concholog...ists have given learned names to nearly five hundred species of Ammonites, because of some slight varieties in adapting their shells to circumstances ; no doubt the Genus Homo might be multiplied to a similar extent, if every variety of cabin, hut, cottage, house, or palace were made to constitute a new species ; mollusks, like men, construct their . Shells or habitations according to their means and require- ments ; but a " man's a man for a' that, " and an Ammonite an Ammonite. 157 Holdsworth further announced that within the Lias range he had discovered " immense number and great variety of tropical fruits, with knots of wood and other vegetable fossils ; and he adduced the fact of a similar discovery of tropical fruit in the London clay, supposed to be a much more recent deposit than the Lias.
