From the observations of Mr. Rothe and Professor Mitchell, H arrears thit tbe gold occurs in immediate connection with veins of quartz wbicn traverse the slate lorma tion in various directions, and are some times laid bare by the decomposition of the rock. It is also sometimes accora panied by a kind of conglomerate, resem bling ,the Roxbury fragmentary rock, which is commonly known by the name of pudding-alone.
