Cedar Mines.

We observe paragraph in the Trenton State
Gaz"tta, mentioning that in South Jersey numbers
OF cedar trees are dug up from the marshes and
they are tie most valuable timber of the kind
brought to market. gentleman 10 the neigh or
hood tells that these buried cedar trees are often
found OF an enormous size much larger in fact,
than any living cedars above ground, and that thew
are invariably in perfect state OF preservation
1t Is not impossible that they belong to very ear
ly period-p possibly to an antediluvian age. The
Jersey cedar cutting business is very extensive.
and gives employment to a large and p cular tribe
OF families The trees which they dig up are pros
Pected for in somewhat peculiar manner and as
carefully as though they were gold mines. As in
the search for bog oak in Ireland, long iron drill
Is employed, and by its the miner if We NAV so
call him, Is enabled to ascertain very rapidly and
accurately now large the tree discovered is, and
what ITS quality may be- Take italtogether, cedar
mining Is one OF the most peculiar occupations car
ried on, within short distrance from PHILADELPHIA.
