ine that Can’t be Worked. Philadelphia Timed, ' The greupd on which Philadel- Z phU stands is one of the.richest gold fields in the world. That is a fact. The only difficulty ie that the field cannot be worked. Nearly the whole city ' ie underlaid with clay, to the depth of about ten feet—an area say ten miles square. A cubic foot of clay, ’ weighing 130 .pounds, taken from a depth of fourteen feet when the cel lar of the Twelfth street market bouse was excavated, was practically demonstrated to contain seven-tenths, of a grain of gold, or one pound in 1,224,000. The experiment was-re peated with about the same results with clay taken from a brick yard in the suburbs. Supposing the whole mass of day is 4,180,000,000 pounds (and it is really much greater), the anqount of gold would reach in value the enormous sum of 1126,000,000. The gravel ie. much richer in: gold than the' clay, but there is not so much of it; Undoubtedly $200,000,- 000 of gold lies within fifteen feet of the surface and still it cannot be Used.
