Mineral Wealth of Lynohburg.

Granite is the oldest rock formation in the
earth. 1t occupies the highest points upon the
highest mountains also the lowest positions in
the earth, yet penetrated OF the granite family
of rocks, are three members-granite, (specitic,)
gncss and mica slate. The first is crystalline
rock the two last stratatied resulting from me-
chancal deposition.
On the banks of the James, near Richmond
and miles above, are inexhaustible deposits of
granite. Several of the first tiers of blocks in
the walls Of the enlargement" of our National
Capitol were taken from those quarres, as was
the whole material of the Washington Monument
in the Virginia Capital. A more beautiful build
ing material, is, perhaps, not known.
In and about Lynchburg, granite formations
are confined to gness and mica slate. An ex-
cellent building material called granite, obtained
for the Courthouse and sundry other buildings in
this city, some twelve miles up the riyer,is siente
composed principally of hornblend. 1t is the
same kind of rock composes the Bunker Hill
Monument the Astor House, Merchants Ex-
change, and numerous other buildings in New
York, and nearly all in Boston. 1t is also much
used in New Orleans, and in most of the Attain
tic cities. Most of the African rocks are SIZE
mite. Basalt is another hornblenl rock, extern
siyey deposited in hcxagonal (sx-sided) coumns.
more perfectly matched than the finest pieces of
artificial mas onry. Basalt is widely scattered
about Lynchburg in pebbles and bouldcrs, but is
the only building material in Edinburgh, Scot
land, it is New Haven, Connecticut, taken
from bluffs afordng grand and picturesque seem
eryof a similar character surrounding those two
cities.
Gneiss is slaty granite. 1t can be split into
slabs by wedges granite requires drills, with
wedges. The former is best fitted for foot walks
floors and sundry other building purposes-the
last for firm, durable, beautiful walls. Lodges
of gneiss, wholly inexhaustible, are deposited in
and about l4ynchburg, on both sides of the river.
Mica slate is also inexhaustible- the two rocks,
alternating with each other, largely intermngcd
with hernhlend formations of greatly varied huos
and compilations, rich in its associated minerals,
and frequently exceedingly beautiful. Another
deposite of hornblcnd rocks, so various, so rich
and so beautiful as those about Lynchburg, prob
ably cannot be found. H.
In the 2nd number. ODD paragraph, 1st SEN
tence,) the word rails should be soils.

FOR THE VIRGINIAN,

Messrs. Editors; | have had the pleasure of
two or three interviews with Mr.. II. i. Holland,
the blind Phrcnologst who now has his lodgings
at the Noryell House in Lynchburg and wish
to avail myself of your columns to call public at
tenti0n to the professional claims of this accom-
plished and interesting gentleman The public
have SO frequently been hum5agged as the phrase
is, by itnerant phrenologsts, who have display
ed so little skill in their profession as 10 bring the
science into dsrcpute, that one really entitled to
consideration is received and treated with eau
ton and reserve, until he establishes his charac-
ter, in respectable circle, by the successful
practice of his profession. This, Mr.. Holland is
now doing He spent few days in the city
sometime during last year, and ON considerable
number of subjects, gave most satisfactory eyi-
denee OF his ability to read intellectual End moral
2haractortr3m the physical conformation of the
head. He has recently returned TO our city n.
