The reader will appreciate the value of these from the continual references to Gellius which have been made in this work. The style of Gellius abounds with archaisms and rare words, e.g., edulcare, recentari, aeruscator, adulescentes frugis, elegans verborum, and shows an unnecessary predilection for frequentatives.
For though Morton, more accustomed to speak than to write French, expressed himself with less precision, and a less euphuistic selection of phrase, than the authors and elegans who formed her usual correspondents; there was an innate and rough nobleness a strong and profound feeling in every line of his letter, which increased her surprise and admiration.
They are often scattered through the beds singly, and may be useful to a geologist in determining the age of the rock. Palaeoniscus comptus, Agassiz. Scale, magnified. Palaeoniscus elegans, Sedgwick. Under surface of scale, magnified. Palaeoniscus glaphyrus, Agassiz. Under surface of scale, magnified. Coelacanthus granulatus, Agassiz. Granulated surface of scale, magnified.
He himself tells us so; in the midst of his most disreputable performances he aspired to be known for his fashion and wit elegans atque urbanus. Politeness of speech and manners, the courteous mutual deference of the best society such, was the ideal of this budding professor of rhetoric.

Leopoldi inextricably entwined, clinging to the face of lofty rocks.
The Euphema elegans then passed us, with several other kinds of birds, but some of them remained, as did also the Euphema Bourkii, which the reader will find more particularly noticed under its proper head. There were always an immense number of Raptores following the line of migration, and living on the smaller birds; nor was any thing more remarkable than the terror they caused amongst them.
In like manner, the Amphitragulus elegans of Pomel, an Auvergne fossil, is identified by Waterhouse with Dorcatherium nanum of Kaup, a Rhenish species from Weissenau, near Mayence.
Bull's representative goes round, showing to one and another the contents of a little box a lovely bloom of Aristolochia elegans, figured in dark red on white ground like a sublime cretonne and a new variety of Impatiens; he distributes the latter presently, and gentlemen adorn their coats with the pale crimson flower.
