* I was not apprised of the existence of steatite in Worcester till it was too late 

 to notice it in the proper place. Although I have not visited the spot, I have rea- 

 son to believe that it occurs in gneiss, in the southeast part of the town. The 

 owners informed me that they had penetrated the bed as yet only about five feet- 

 The specimens will show that it is the handsomest steatite in the State yet discov- 

 ered: and should the bed prove to be a large one, its situation near the Blackstone. 

 Canal, will render it of high value. 



Worcester ought also to be mentioned among the towns that abound in peat.
