That while this elevation took place in England, depression was going on in the south of Europe, accompanied by disturbances, and producing a deep sea. 6. That such deep sea was afterwards enlarged by a wid...er movement of depression, until it extended from Scandinavia to Spain, and from England to the Caucasus, being throughout that wide tract the recipient of deposits of chalky mud ; and, finally, that this sea was probably deeper and was soonest deepened in the southern part of the district, but that just in that part the sea-bottom afterwards again underwent elevation on a grand scale, and formed either continuous land or a chain of islands extending from England to Asia Minor, and con- nected with the elevation of the Alps, the Pyrenees, and the Caucasus.
