Book Description
Excerpt from Second Report on the Geology of the State of Maine, 1838 Few subjects have, for many years, more strongly excited public attention, than the Science of Geology; and we may justly attribute this general interest to the improved condition of the science, and its numerous applications to useful purposes. Formerly, rude conjectures, imaginary hypotheses, and vague theories, which naturally arose from an imperfect knowledge of the subject, owing to the imperfections of the collateral branch es of Natural History, caused many intelligent persons to con sider the whole science as uncertain and chimerical. This state of things has, however, been succeeded by more sound and perfect knowledge, and no longer is Geology reproached with being merely visionary and speculative. It has now assumed the rank of an accurate and certain science, adapted to the physical and intellectual wants of an enlightened community - revealing to us the situations in which are found our valuable metallic ores, quarries of building. Mate rials, beds of limestone, and a thousand other articles of daily use. It traces out the precise situation in which we may ex pect to find fossil coal, and gives us a knowledge of the means of making rational explorations for that valuable combustible. Soils being mainly composed of the detritus of rocks, and those materials having been spread out on the surface of the globe, in conformity to regular geological laws, a just knowledge of their mineral components, and their order of distribution, serves to direct the farmer in the selection of his farm, and the cultivation of the earth. It would be easy to trace out many other good results, which are attainable by this science, but so general has now become a knowledge of the subject, that it will be unnecessary for me to enter into minute details.
