CURIosI1IEs of the EARTH

.CURIoSIIIEs of the EARTH
AT the city of Modena, in Italy,
and about four miles around il
wherever the earth is dug, when
the workman arrive at distance
of sixty-thIee feet, they come to Il
bed of chalk, which they bore with
an anger five feet deep. They
then withdraw from the pit before
the anger is removed, and upon
its extraction the water bursts up
through the aperture with great
violence, and quickly fills this
newly made well, which continues
fnil and is affected by neither
rains or 1routhS. But what is
most remarkable in this opera
ton is the layers of earth as we
descend. AT the depth of four
teen feet are found the ruins OF
an ancient city, paved streets,
houses, floors and different pieces
of mosaic work. Under this is
found soft, oozy earth, made up
of vegetables and twenty six feet
deep large trees entire, such as
walnuts still sticking TO the stem.
and the leaves and branches in 4
perfect state of preservation. Al
twenty-eight feet deep, a solt
chalk is found, mixed with large
quantity of shells, and this bed is
eleven feet thick. Under this
vegetables are again found.

MENINGITIS.-The numerous
cases of this disease in our county.
with the fatality attending its
effects, has created much inquiry
into its treatment. This disease.
We are informed by several learn
ed men, was almost an epidemic
IN this county in 1865. at which
time quite Il number OF our ci.-
liens died with it.
The disease is one of ancient
origin, and its history is fnlIy de
veloped in medical works, and
Its treatment well and fully laid
down. 1t is By no means new
disease. Eugene Sac in his
"Wandering jew" speaks of the
Treatments OF this disease upon
one of the landing characters
in the book by celebrated
French physician. The treat
ment being, first, an application of
a saturated cloth with turpentime
to the back and spine and the
passing over it a hot iron, burn
ing the flesh; if this did not give
relief, the only relief was in the
use of blow pipe and an alcohol
lamp, causing an incision into the
flesh like Il gimlet with the burn
ing flame, which operation WIS
called the Moxa, and either gave
instant relief or produce "A painfni
