Geology of the Eastern Section oj

port made by Professor Olmsted, of his
late tour down the River Neuse. j We
i . . , .
shall now add a few other particulars,
tnentijmed in this district of country ;
and, in our future papers, detail some
of the
veries
most important. geological disco
made by the Professor in his first
and second Tour to the West.
About a mile west of Smithfieltl; the
road crosses the
strata of blue Slate,
whicl
rest on a ridge of Isinglass Rock.
Between the stratu of this Mica Slate,
oc curs the beds of Iron Ore, which pay
be traced for several miles in a north-
.i .- r
easterly and southwesterly direction,
and is believed to belong to the same
depns t as that which otcurs in $ash
countv, a little souUi of Tar Rivef.
rhi !ire is Of the kind called Brown
Iron Stone, coritainina: from 50 to 60
per cent, of Iron, which affords bar-
iron o
this
' the best quality. What renders
re particularly valuable, is its
proximity to the sources bf Limestone,
on the Neuse, which is of the rnost
suitable kind for a flux to separate j the
earthly ingredients from the iron. The
Professor Suggests that Pig Iron might
be ma.de here with great facility, , and
that tie manufacture of Castings migbi
also be carried on to advantage. j
Six miles southwest of Sm.ithfield, in
a ledge of Slate Rocks that present a
bold, precipice on the , banks of Swift
Ceek, is found the best kind of Alum
that the Professor has found in the State,
though it is believed there is a sthTsu
perior kind occurs on the Catawba Ri
