Thus it is evident that the sun ought to accomplish its maximum amount of denudation in tropical regions ; yet the amount of work done in the temperate zone must be considerable, if we may judge from what can be ob- served in Ireland, as the part the sun has taken in form- ing its present features is conspicuous.
