Abstract
ON June 6 Baron Nordenskjöld's Greenland expedition arrived at Reykjavik in the steamer Sophia. The Sophia lay at Reykjavik for a few days, and in the meantime Baron Nordenskjöld and the geologists of the party examined the coal deposits which occur in Bergarfiord. Dr. Arpi, a Swedish philologist, who has resided some time in Iceland and acquired a thorough knowledge of the language, accompanied the expedition thither, and will, along with two other men of science, remain in Iceland after the Sophia has left.
