Extract

I obtained, the other day, on my way into South Devon, another peep at the Bristol Channel, and the gorge of the Avon, at Clifton, which I had long been wishing for. It showed me, as I anticipated, that the hypothesis of atmospheric erosion, which I was compelled to adopt, a year or two ago, to explain the formation of the river valleys of the South of Ireland, is applicable to the Clifton gorge as to all other similar places.
