Text Appearing Before Image:
ruptions and theold basement lavas^ which underlie all the islands of the Lesser Antilles.It may be hoped that some of the numerous scientific men who havebeen despatched to the spot will thoroughly investigate this interestingpoint. These volcanoes, as we have already seen, are entirely inde-pendent of any of the other volcanic groups in America, so that a com-parison between their products is not of great value. One point broughtout by such a comparison, however, is the predominance amongst recentAmerican lavas of rocks of intermediate type as a whole, and amongthese, of hypersthene andesite in particular. The accompanying illustration shows the town of St. Pierre, Mar-tinique, before the late eruption. The background shows the slopes ofMount Pel6e. We are indebted for the loan of the block to the RoyalMail Steam Packet Company, London. 1 Of these lavas little is known. Porphyrites and greenstones are said to be common, andZirkel mentions the occurrence of tracliytes in Martinif;ue.
