Geologists call it soild crystalized petroleum or mineral oil. — This lode is situated on McFarland’s Run, a small tributary of the south fork of Hughes River, about eight miles from Cairo station, or about twenty miles southeast from Parkers burg. The mineral has been traced one and a half miles in a line running south seventy-six degrees east. The lode is nearly five feet wide, and lies between two horizontal sandstone rocks It is without the least trace of impurity, and is divided .into distinct parts by an irregu- larjvertical joint or seem, one portion of it be ing fibrous and the other granulated. The mountains on the > two sides of McFarland’s Run rise with a gradual slope about four hun dred feet high and the fissnre in which the mineral is deposited extends right through them, and within five to eight feet of the top surface. Os course there are numerous the ories broached to account for the production of so remarkable a mineral deposit, but the most reasonable one appears to be that it is the result of the gradual oxidation of liquid petroleum that had been forded up and injected into this fissure by Borne violent convulsion of nature.” The foreign s tea mem bringing goodly numbers of English factory hands, who oome to seek employment in our manufacturing dis trict*.
