BAD Fou0DATIoN, A correspondent of the National Intelligencer attributes the unhealthiness of New Orleans to the character of the ground upon which 1t Is built Here is an extract which IS inter- esting to geologists: a
 That great cify is buiH upon q forest co1 cypress The situation of the place Is SC remarkable and peculiar that it cannot es- cape one's attention. It is on an alluvlal plain, of recent geological formation, and of an unknown age and depth. An al. tempt, made here some time ago, revealed the fact that, for SIX hundred feet, at least the same formation was obtained. Rows upon rows of the stumps of cypress have been found growing over each other ex- actIy superimposed, each of which layers must have taken thousand years to form. Dr. Bonnet Dowler, the able editor ol the Medical Journal. of New Orleans, in- formed me that he himself had observed four layers of these cypress stumps within the limits of the city. +..f sf s-
