On the river Zaire, however, crystal- line slates and granite predominate, as well as in the kingdom of Sackatoo and at the Cape of Good Hope. In the interior of this last colony there are secondary calcareous sandstones, with tertiary strata, yet the region is destitute of igneous rocks. On the Nile, however, and between that river and the Red Sea, extinct volcanoes are described.

above these a cretaceous formation, with nummulites.
