i i CURIOSITIES OF THE EARTli: f
.At the ;.cy M ".JSIpdena; in : Italy, and
about four miles around it, wherever the
earth s dug, whenthe workmen arrive I
at listance of 63Tfeet they come to at
bed of chalk, which' thfey boreithan
augur, five feet deep; ;- They then with
draw from the pit; .before the laugur, is
removed,, and, upon its Extraction, the
water ; bursts up , through . theapertufe
with great violence, and quickly fills this
riewly jmade well, Ayhich continues full,
and isf not" 'affected "either by Tains or
droughts: But what is most remarkable
in this operation is. - the layers ;of the
earth as we descend. . At the depth of
fourteen feet are found the ruins of an
ancient cityi paved streets, houses, floors,
and different pieces ' of mosaic work.
Under this ; is found a .'"soft; obzy eaVth,
made up of vegetables, and ; at twenty
six feet,; large trees entire such as wal
nut trees, with walnuts still sticking i to
the stem, and the leaves and branches
in a .perfect slate of preservation. At

DREAM OF A QUAKER fcADY.
There is. a beautiful, story - told of a
pious Quaker ladyj who was addicted to
smoking tobacco. ; .She. had indulged in
the habit until it had increased so upon
her, that she not only smoked her pipe'
a large portion oi tneuay, but frequent
ly satup in her bed 'for; this "purpose
during) ; the night. ' After onefpf these
entertainments ' she ' fell : asleep "'and
dreamed that she died ands approached
heaven. Meeting-an. angel she asked
hirii' if her name was written in th'book'
of-lifei - He disappeared, but ' replied on
returning that he could not find'it!.: ' f
' Oh,' said? she,' ? do j look ; again; it
inust be there .: s
, He y examined again : tut? returned
with k sorrowful face, saying that itwas
not mere. . .
' f Oh,' said she, in agony, 1 it must be 1
there I 1 have an assurance that it . is
there I Do look once more!'
, . The angel was moved to tears by her
entreaties,' and . again left her to renew
.his search. 4 After ? a long- absence, i he
came back, -his ifece . radiant with joy,
and exclaimed- t , ; , ... . : ,.
i We have found it ! .but ,it was so
clouded with tobacco smoke that .e
could hardly see it.' ' : JT
