Abstract

AS one deeply interested in the success of the Geological Survey of Canada, I cannot but regret the letters which have appeared in NATURE concerning the appointment of Mr. Low to the directorship of the survey. As a result of these letters misapprehensions will certainly remain in the minds of the readers of NATURE concerning this appointment, which it would be impossible to dispel without a detailed statement of the full facts of the case. There are, however, two statements contained in the letter which appeared in the number of NATURE dated July 12 (vol. lxxiv., p. 245) which reflect directly on Mr. Low's character and standing, and which, in common justice to that gentleman, should not be allowed to pass unchallenged.
