Mallet-Palmieri's “Vesuvius”

Abstract

MY absence in Spain during the months of March and April prevented my having seen NATURE for the 20th March, and left me until a few days since in blissful ignorance that it contained a lengthy critique by Mr. Mallet on my review (NATURE, Feb. 6) of his translation of “Palmieri's” “Incendio Vesuviano.” This accounts for my silence, as, had it not been the case, a reply from me would certainly have appeared at the time.
