ORIGIN OF CoAL.-An eminent geolo-
gist, Mr. Whittlesey, expresses it as his
conviction that coalbeds were deposited
from water under the same circumstances
as the other beds between which the coal
is found. Mr.. Whittlesey says that the
numerous analysis of coal shows that no
timber now existing contains within itself
the proper quantity of ingredients to form
coal 1t must, therefore, acquire It's In
gradients in part from some other source,
or a part of those existing in wood or woody
fbers must be deposited, and another part
of the ingredients remain in excess. There
is very little vegetable matter that contains
nitrogen, aud wood dy-fber has none. In
coal nitrogen is found in notable quantities
at almost every analysis. Wood y-fber
seldom furnishes more than so per cent.
of carbon; coal has from 10 to 80 per cent.
The inference that coal was once in veg
etable state arose at first from the fact that
the impressions or petrefactions of leaves
are abundant in coal strata. AS the i'm
pfessions of the same trees and leaves are
found in the shales and sandstones that
overlie and underlie these strata, this fact,
says Mr.. Whittlesey, is equally strong
proof that the sandstones and shales are
of vegetable origin.

OREIDE-This is the name of n new
combination of various metals, in such
proportion as to resemble gold very closely
in weight color and power of resisting acids.
A company in Connecticutis is manufacturing
it largely into tableware, much Of whichis
sold as golI-chased plate. 1t is cheap.
costing only about eighty cents per pound,
and does not readily tarnish. Although
this new combination is valuable acquisi-
ton to the metallic arts, its usefulness is in
IA manner neutralzed by Instability to ba
used by rogues in being made into spurious
coin. When placed side by side with gold,
it requires close scrutiny to decide which
is gold and which oreide. In France, a
law has already been passed TO prevent
frauds, by compelling. under severe penal
ties for neglect, all manufacturers of oreide
to stamp the word upon the articles plo-
duce1.
