CuRIosrrIEs OF THE EAETH.-At the
city of Modena, in Italy, and about four
miles around il. wherever the earth is
dug, when the workmen arrive at the
distance OF sixty-.I.ree feet, they come to
bed of chalk, which they bore with an
auger five lcet deep. Thcy then with
draw from the pit before the auger is
removed, and upon its extraction the
water bursts up through the aperture
with great violence, AID quickly fills up
this newly made well, which continues
full, and is effected neither by rains or
drouths. Butwhat Is most remarkable
in this operation is tie layers Of earth
rs VIC decend. At the depth OF four
teen feet are found the ruins of an an
Gent city, paced streets, houses, floors,
and different pieces of mosaic work.
Under this is found q soft, oozy earth,
made up of vegetables, and twenty-six
feet deep. large trees entire, sach as
walnut trees with the walnut still stick
ing to the stem, and the leaves and
branches in perfect state Of prcserva-
ton. At twcnty-cight feet deep, sof,
chalk is found, MIXED with a large
quantity Of shells, and this bed is eleven
feet thick. Under this, vegetables arc
again found.
