Abstract
THE formation of anchor-ice has attracted a good deal of attention in Upper Canada, although I am not aware of any efforts having been made to describe theoretically the cause of its formation. Prof. H. Y. Hind, some time of Toronto, alludes to it in a paper read before the Geological Society (Proc. Geol. Soc., xxi. p. 128), and I believe the late Sir Wm. Logan, director of the Canadian Geological Survey, also brought the matter before the same Society, though I cannot trace up the paper, and Mr. Keefer, C.E., of Ottawa, read a paper on this subject before the Canadian Institute (Canadian Journal (new series), vii., p. 173, 1862).
