! have no theory in regard to tho
origin of Petroleum. do not think
that the facts within our knowledge,
will warrant any conclusion upon tho
subject. 1t is sometimes believed
that it arises from peculiar decom.
position of vegetable and animal mat
ter ontombed in the earth amid tho
earlier changes Of our planet. There
are some considerations which might
favor such conclusion but it seems
more reasonable To nc TO believe that
we are in profound Ignorance as to
the origin Of this singular product of
nature. The deeper we 20 for it the
lighter its gravity, and in still low.
or formation, nothing has been hithcr.
10 found but gas, i. {. Hydro-C Carbon,
not in fluid, but in gaseous stato.-
1t may bo that 1t originates in this
form from above unknown source.
But if we are uncertain respecting
the origin of petroleum, | think that
we can scarcely doubt respecting its
products. 1t very early impressed
itself upon my mind that all our
coal formations are to be ascribed to
Petroleum. Nor can doubt it since
every variety of coal can DO mado
from this article in a common Still By
removing its volatile elements, less or
more. Petroleum is also, always
found in quantity below the coal for
nations, and never above them. 1t
is so in this country invariablc, and
| know of no exception in the world.
Itis probably found in its original beds
or sources, from which it flowed into
the basins containing our coal depos-
its. If this theory is just, it is Of
great practical value, as it shows that
tho supply of Petroleum must be very
great, remaining uncxhausted after
The lapse Of so many ages and so many
revolutions of our planet Tho i'm
monsc daily yield of oil in Pennsyl-
vania shows that it is still capable of
making vast coal beds as in former
ages, but it can serve the purpose of
man better by being presented now
in it fluid state.
Hoping that the oil interests Of our
State may equal tho expectations en-.
tcrtaincd regarding them,
lam very truly yours,
