GEOLOGY, NO.2.
Mr.. Elst0r.-In continuing our remarks
upon this subject we would say by way Of
preface, that we shall make use of the old
nomenclature, or rather, the one used IS Or
~ years ago. We shall also arrange our
classification in accordance with those daxs
We commence then by saying that the
Primitive class consists of the following rock.
l. Granite. g Gnicss 8. Mica Slate. 4. Tai
cose Slate. S. Granular Quartz. 6. Grauu.
lar LIMERICK
Gness, the second rock enumerated has
more reesntly, and with propriety, beeasson-
sldered variety of Granite, and hence the
class has been reduced to rock. The par-
ticular country where any of these rocks
are found is called primitive country
hence this is a primitive country. The
primitive line extends to about CambIetop.
little above Augusta, and so far as this
State is concerned from thence up the sa-
vannah river to the North Carolina line
1t also includes much Of the upper part of
Georgia and North Carolina. Primitive
rocks are characterized more by negative
than by positive qualities-they contain no
organic remains, no pctrifactions, from the
animal, Or vegetable kingdoms. 1t is sup
posed that they were created before animals
or vegetables had an existence. Some of
these rocks are very important, as we'll on
account ofthe mctalic associations connected
with them, as their uses in the arts, ~
sciences. For instance, Gold is alwS,./as-
sociated with 7alcose Slate. u1)De''e'e
it has never been found i2}h i2};he wortin"of @

derry countries. But these rivers nave "a a..
tnrous', l,.------ ---.ti,sin in, or have passeo
true, is an important practicais Il It no :
teaches us to not waste our time, in hunting
for gold, in any other than primitive coun-
try, unless it be in the river bottoms referred
to. Another important fact, connected with
this class of rock, is that there is no lime
stone here, excepting the Granular lime
stone-the white marble. This rock ought
to be found in Abbeville, and it will be
found here, doubtless in abundance, at some
future day. Lead, copper, arsenic, iron,
tin, zinc, manganese, antimony, bismuth
&C., belong to this region: Many of them
have been found in Abbeville. There is
no difficulty in determining whether
country be primitive or not, and when de-
termined, many important practical facts,
are at once settled. We may betake our
