ETCn J"*.P u ”^; :l _ f SJocst Cannon, Fa., done U, 1865.-Tnls af ternoon wc found ourselvesln company with the class of geological students of . the University of Pennsylvania, and several members of heAei demv of Natural Sciences of Philadelphia, who, under the direction of Prof.. F. V. Hayden, of the AnxMUry Faculty of Medicine of tho above Col -1,..,,, were about to avail themselves of the libe rality of Charles E. Smith, tho President of the Philadelphia atid Reading- Railroad. This gentleman had kindly fnrnlshed a special car for the transportation of the cxcurslonlata_to tho_ Pottsvillc coalfields. .. . Functnailv at 3.30 P. M., m o cold northeaster, that failed todampen the ardor of these students of nature, we moved out of tho fino depot at Broad and Callowbill streets. On the iron tails that appeared like cobwebs as thev stretched over the streets wo skirted past the beautiful reservoir at Fairmonnt, tho pride of Philadelphia, and tho freshgreen park that beau tifies the 6horcs of the poetical Schuylkill. The geological structure of the country hero is com naratively simple, tho surface covered with a con siderable deposit of diluvium or loose eravel;res tr ine upon gnclssic rocks. Wherever the railroad cuts through the metamorphic Strata (or rooks that have boon changed by heat), the flexures of tho strata are visible, indicating some of the most remarkable physical events of tho geological history of tho globe. . PafWng ovet these gnelssio rocks and 4heir debris to near Conshohocken, we came to a belt of crystalline limestone, called by Prof. H. D. Rogers the matiual limestone of the lower silo rian. which extends to Norristown, being about three miles in breadth. Here (Norristown) we fonndi the new red sandstone making its appear ance, resting uncomfortably on the lowßr Silu rian. Tho whole surface of tho coun try- changes in color, assuming tho red shade,which is due to the fact that tho superficial covering derived from the erosion of these reel sandstone rockß Is pormcated with tho sesquloxide of iron, which the copious rains wore washing down, coloring tho little brooks, and they, by pouring into tho Schuylkill, have changed the water to the dingy ted, which is so objectionable to our city laundresses. The upper stratum, composed of materials worn-from the gnelssie rocks around Philadelphia, possessing compara tively little fertility, is in strong contrast with tho rich soil that is derived from tho limestones of the lower sUurlau and the sandstones of the mcsozoic (or middle-life period of geologi cal history). This red sandstono eontlnuoa to NoverElnk,' on tbc lino of the Philadelphia and Reading Railroad, where it is terminated by a rock commonly chllcd Conglomerate; this is pro bably the same as the Potomac Conglomerate, of which the beautiful pillars of the House of Repre ' scntatlves, at Washington, are composed The. new red sandstone forms the southern boundary of the Lebanon valley, and runs parallel with tao Blue Mnnntnins. At PicsdiDg W. Lorenz, Eeq.. tho Resident •ChUf-Ei"inter In charge of the Lebanon Valley Branch o?tbe Philadelphia and Reading Rill road, a graduate of tho Polytechnic School of Hanover, ioiuid us at the request of Mr. Smith, tbit we might enjoy tho privilege of bis direction and knowledge, perfected by years of close study of this region. • Id Reading we entered upon the lower Silu rian rocks and continued on through tho differ ent stages of the Silurian and Devonian until we rent be d the Carboniferous, or coal-bearing rocks at Mount Carbon. Above Port Clinton aro some of the most beautiful flexures of the strata that •sveie seen on the route, forming what are called by geologists Anticlinals, or the bending In low shaped curves of these hard rocks, showing the greatness of the forces brought to bear by the Supreme Architect in their lormatlon. A most interesting chemical process, on a large icale, occurs at Reading The Schuylkill river is charged with sulphuric acid,caused by the decomposition of tho iron pyrites that is mixed with the coal, and is washed down by the littlo streams that lead from these mints. Flowing into this acid river are two smaller streams. Maiden and Tnlpebocken creeks, which, traversing ex tensive • limestone valleyß, have car- I)o nute of lime ill- solution \ tills, uniting with the sulphuric acid of the river, forms the Eulphate ol lltnc (gypsum) which,being insoluble, EeUleß to the bottom, leaving tipi river cltar end pure. The water, prior to tills passage through Nature’s laboratory, is destructive, noi ODly to animal life, killing the fißh which for merly abounded-in these streams prior to the opining of the mines, but rusting the iron pipes of the stcum engine boilers, water conduits, &c.'. Ac. So destructive is it, that its use for tho loco motives of the road has been, abandoned, and the company, when it could not obtain water from the small tributaries, has been forced to sink ar tesian wells. The limestone begins gradually to change into slate neftr Lecsport, but as yet Is of no econom ical value, on account of tho irregularity of the cleavage. This Is a continuation of tho slate re gion of the Lehigh and Delaware water gaps, where are located somo valuable slate quarries. Before reaching Mount Carbon wu passed through three tunnels: the first, near Manayunk, called the Flat Rock Tunnol, penetrates the tncissic rock, and is 967 feet in length -, these lie elow the fossil-bearing rocks and are chiefly re markable for the gurnets they contain. The second tunnel, near Phcenixville, 1,93:.’ feel in length, is cut in the blaek slate of the new red sandstone period, and is notablo not only on account of its handsome dolomites or peirl spars, but also for the fossils found there. These consist chit fly of reptilian remains, and a number of copralites (the fossil excrement) of the s iu rians. Several of these, broken open by Mr Lortrz, disclosed imbedded within them the scales of gaDoids (fishes like the gar or bturgeou) showing clearly the food upon which these huge reptiles susisted. The Bame gentleman also found teeth of these reptiles, buautifuib furrowed or fluted along the sides,and others dis tinctly serrated at their edges. We understand that Mr. Wheatley, ol Phcenixville.who has mado elab orate researches In this neighborhood, pos sesses a fine cabinet containing many rare and valuable specimens. The third tunnel passes through a span of the Blue Mountains ; i 51637 feet long, cutting the upper Silurian rockß, which are metamorphic and cn ■tirely destitute of organic remains. Arriving at this point, we have prepared to spend the night, and to-morrow we expect to start for the coal mines.. T. C. 8. THEATRES, Etc.

OlTtßULus'l'Ui .A Sad Cask.—An Individual who gave hla name; os John Kelley, and his residence >B Twenty third street above Coates, was arrested op Satnr*. Sergeant Albertson, and taken before ' Aid. Pancoast. The complainant, was a young woman who has heretofore borne an unsullied .reputation. She alleges that Kelley went out with her and enticed her into a saloon near Fair-' mount Park. There Ehc was Induced to'drink, and soon became much Intoxicated. Whllo in ' that condition, She charges, Kelleyeemmitted an outrageous assault upon her. When she reco vered from the effects of' the liqaor and dis covered her situation, ehc became frantic. She went on boaid of one of tho stoam “Tsotrts —which —run upon—the —Behuylkl! li ned soon aftdr tho .boat left the wharf she plunged In'to the river. Her attempt to com mit suicide. thus was unsuccessful, as she was soon taken out of the water through the efforts of the hands on the boat, assisted by somo of tho passengers. She did hot despair of ending her existence, however, for soon afterwards she at tempted to throw herself upon a cog-wheel in a foundry in the vicinity of Fairmount. She was prevented frbm accomplishing her pprpose by some of tho workmen,npd was taken to tho Ninth District Station Hoiiße, where she related her sad story. A warrant for tho arrest of Kelley, the alleged cause of her misery, was issued, and ho was taken into custody as above stated. After I the hearing ho was committed In default of $l,OOO ball, for trial. Anniversary of the Tabernacle Sunday School. —The twentieth anniversary of the Sab bath Schools of the Tabernacle Baptist Church, Chestnut street west of Eighteenth,;was held yes terday afternoon. Although no effort had been made to make the holding of this anniversary known, the church edifice was crowded to ox-. « ss, doubtless in consequence of tho attractions furnished by the beautiful singing of the scholars, who have been trained into almost unequaled ef ficiency by J. M. Evans, Esq., one of the Super intendents. The exercises were opened bv chanting tho 121st Psalm by the entire school, followed by praver by the Pastor, Rev. G. A. Peliz. “Lambs of tho Fold" was then sung by ihe ecLool, after which tho Snperintendcnts’ report wos read, showing that the school is divided into threo departments the Infant School, conducted by Aaron E. Carponterotad William H. Van Ingen; the Juvenile School by J. M.
