GEOLOGICAL coNJEcTUREs.

speculations Aroused by the Discovery Of
. Buried Tree.
The recent discovery of an oak tree,
two or three feet in diameter, so feet be-
low the surface, while sinking o we'll
with drill at the confluence of the
Oneida and Seneca rivers, is an i'm
portant discovery. Itindicates that the
Oneida river was at one time the outlet
of an immense volume of water and
opens to our readers very interesting
geological conjectures. a.,a.
The theory would seem to be plausi-
BILE that the Oneida river was once the
outlet Of the great chain Of lakes. One
Is reminded that Lake Ontario 10 334
is lis feet higher than Lake Ontario at
Oswego. A great depression has taken
place. unquestionably, in conditions i'm
mediately connected with Lake Ontario.
It has apparently subsidized several hun
dred feet, while the Oneida river has
been raised up SO that to-day it is lis
feet higher than the surface Of the
waters of Lake Ontario.
The waters from the great chain Of
lakes must have passed from Lake On
tario south through the valley where
the Oswego river now runs, reversal
of the present course of that river. At
the confluence of the Oneida with the
Oswego this great volume of water
made its way eastward through the
Oneida river to the Mohawk and Hudson
rivers. The Mohawk valley shows plain
ly that It was q great water course Mt
one period and the discovery of the
buried timber at Three Rivers proves
conclusively that the water bed Of the
Oneida was at one period at least so
feet lower than it now is and perhaps
100 to $50 feet lower.
1t is even asserted that the shores Of
Lake Ontario were once located as far
south as Baldwinsville; thence the
course Of the shore has been traced
through Cayuga, Wayne, Monroe and
adjacent counties. This condition
shows, II correct, that the whole re-
gion, including Schoeppel, Clay, Cicero
and portions Of Madison county, was
at one period a vast lake. but that in sub
sequent years subsistence of the waters
took place by the depression, causing
Lake Ontario. Silt was washed down
from the west through the Oswego and
Oneida rivers and valleys. The drift
of alluvium was eastward and, as now
proved, covered up trees and filled in
deep channels. 1t is conjectured that
the st. Lawrence river did not exist at
that time.-Popular Science News.
