Excerpt from Outlines of Mineralogy, Geology, and Mineral Analysis, Vol. 1 of 2 Mohs has arranged all minerals in what he calls a natural history order. The object of his arrangement is to enable a beginner to discover the name of any mineral contained in the system by its characters, precisely in the same way as in botany or entomology, any plant, or insect, contained in the system may be discovered by attending to its characters. And M. Mohs considers it as a vast advantage to mineralogy to be thus freed from the trammels of Chemistry, by which it has been hitherto hampered.

Excerpt from Outlines of Mineralogy, Geology, and Mineral Analysis, Vol. 2 of 2 It is evident, that whatever causes gave this oblate figure to the globe, have acted upon the solid as well as the fluid parts. The land, in a general point of view, is as much elevated at the equator as towards the poles. But, since the equatorial regions are 12 miles farther from the centre than the parts at the pole, it is obvious, that if the solid nucleus of the globe were a true sphere, the sea would be accumulated by the centrifugal force in the equatorial regions, which would have been completely submerged while the polar regions would have been left dry and elevated many miles above the level of the waters. The ocean would have formed a broad and deep zone round the equator, separating the two continents encircling the poles.
