After a time the Ordnance Departmen furrisbed some slight aid ta the help of a mem %rs0 that corps. When coal began to attract attention, he became acquainted with Sir Wm. Logan. At that time Mr Logan, who resided at Swansea bad made a map of the coal Geld, which was not only creditable as the Gret acca” rate reconnoissance of this tmportact section, butis to- day considered as one of the most reliable surveys in existence Sir H. De La Beche associated Sir Wm. Logan with bim orzey, first as an amateur and afie “wards as an it, in both of which capaci:ies he had renderet tmporcant rervice. ibe annual grant for the survey ts now £6,000. In 1836 it was divided tpto two parts—one for Ireland, the other for ‘pgana Mr Ramsey was appointed to take the cher; of the Englieb survey, and the woole was placed un the command of Sir Henry Oe La Seche. When the House of Parliameot was beiag built num stones we e collected, which were Oret placed in @ emall house, but were fiua'/y re noved to a noble palace, which was ob tamed by Sir & De La Beche, under the appellation of the Murer m of Geology. To this is pow adaed a lecture de pa:tment, ‘7 which many lectures are given, Mr. Ramsey bas thirteen assietant geologists—sevon in inferior creer and two collectors of fowmiia.
