Part I, of
RESEARCHES in FOSSIL OSTEOLOGY, in which
the Characters of many Animals are established whose
Species have been Destroyed by the Revolutions of the Globe.
By the Baron CUVIER, &c. &c.

Translated by EDWARD URIFFITII, F L.S.
With some Additions, and several new Plates, from Drawings
communauted by the Author.
It may, prhaps, be affirmed safely that there is no modern sci-
entific publicatl.in which has mised the present reputation and esta-
blished the future tame of its author so completely as the celebrated
Work on Fossil Osteology of the Baron Cuvier. It certainly yields
In utility, importance, and skill of execution, to none that the pre-
sent age has produced on any scientific subject ; and ranks, beyond
all comparison, the first on that of which it treats. Fossil Osteology
indeed, aa a science, came foto existence with the publication of this
book ; for though many valuable abstract accounts of fossil organic
remains had proceeded from the pen of previous naturalists, yet it
must be confessed that their researches were but partial; that they
arrived at no general conclusions, no rational system ; and that
they were deficient in that order, clearness, and comprehensiveness
of detail, so essentially necessary to every scientific result, and so
eminently characteristic of all the labours of Cuvier.

It may perhaps be said that a translation of this Work is need.
less, that it ht fitted exclusively for the man of science and the
scholar, to wham an English version it; by no mans necessary.
But the considerations which have induced a contrary belief are
principally these—that all the sciences in their infancy are necessa.
rily confined to men of study and research ; many of them, as they
advance, assume a more popular character, and among these will in
all probability be included the study of fossil osteology.; it requires
no abstruse calculations, and but little preparatory knowledge ; it
is abstracted and simple in its nature, and is confined to facts and
observations. There seems, therefore, to be no bar against its
general introduction as a popular and pleasing pursuit, calculated
to enlarge and correct the notions of every one on the past as well
as the present works and wonders of creation.

An intimate knowledge of the Work in question will necessarily
be co-extensive with the progress of the science to which it is (led'.
cated. The importance of this science, and its growing estimation
among as, are sufficiently evinced by the increasing demand for
this Work in the original French. To meet such a demand, a re-
publication in this country has been thought necessary ; and even
if an English version were not essential, it has been deemed not
merely a partial but a general advantage to present the book to the
English public, clothed in an English dress.
In a Work of so much originality and importance, It would be
injurious to its illustrious author to make any additions to his text ;
but as the Baron has kindly offered to communicate such new facts
and drawings as may occur to him, pending the progress of this
publication, these wIU be inserted, both in the text and among the
plates, simply as his own additions. The translation of the justly
celebrated Preliminary Discourse, or Theory of the Earth, is from
a new edition, with various alterations and additions, recently pub-
lished in Paris, and politely communicated, while yet in the press,
by the Baron himself.
To those at all acquainted with the subject, it would be super-
fiuous to insist on its importance. The names of Dockland.
Greenough, Jameson, and many others, sufficiently attest the con-
sideration it has lately received among men of science in our own
country. To others, however, in general, who may not yet have
turned their attention to the subject, we would here simply ob.
serve, that it is intimately connected with some of the most inte-
resting and useful science, and, among these, more especially with
Geology and the itialory of the Earth, with Zoology and Compa-
rative Anatomy.
Geology, then studied through the medium of fossil organic re-
mains, assumes altogether a new appearance; inattention to these
remains has misled all who have hitherto proposed the several ex.
isting theories of the earth. It is only by researches into these
fossils that any thing concerning the antiquity of the earth can be
proved. From the various and distinct genera of animal fossils, to
which alone the present work is confined, found in strata of difftrent
kinds and at different depths, we obtain the means of calculating,
at least to a certain extent, the duration of the globe, and of learn-
ing the various revolu'ions its surface has undergone, which have
at different and distant periods simultaneously overwhelmed the
whole of animated nature. On one point, and that of the highest
consequence, a positive result has been obtained—we allude to the
comparative recentness of the earth's surface in its present state, and
the certainty of the last grand catastrophe by which it was over-
whelmed. The Baron clearly proves that on this point Nature and
history speak the same language, and that both corroborate by the
strongest proofs the authority of the sacred volume.
Zoology and Comparative Anatomy are alike illustrated and
greatly enlarged by the Work in question and the science it teaches.
Those laws which are founded on the mutual relation and depend.
ens of parts in every organised body, and which are opposed to alt
fallacious stories of monstrous animals handed down to us by cre-
dulous antiquity, receive atiditioual confirmation from the discovery
of the fossil remains of extinct species. We find from them that
at the remotest periods of time nature has been always governed by
.the same general laws, nor could, indeed, ever have produced beings
with a discordance of parts which must have speedily occasioned
their annihilation.

Results like these must amply repay every inquisitive mind for
any reasonable and necessary degree of trouble that may attend the
investigation of the several facts on which they are established ;
and if the reader of Cuvier's NVork do not find au equal degree of
interest In every page, or if he tire with minuteness of detail and
particulars of description, let him remember that it is by auch mi-
nuteness and particularity, in a great measure, that these results
are obtained.

The Work will be published Quarterly, in Ten Parts, each to
contain about thirty sheets of letter-press and about thirty piste's.
It will be printed in quarto, to correspond with the quarto edition
of the Animal Kingdom of Clavier, now publishing.
