is deposited in small quantities, and also in the vicinity of the Alum Rock, 
so called, north of Lebanon Springs. Two miles south of the Shaker 
village Prof. B. observed the spring waters, on the cast side of the 
road, tinged with iron. In several places near the road, south of Mr. 
Bailey's, in New-Lebanon, a reddish deposit was made by the spring 
waters. Ferruginous matter is deposited from water near Mr. Grant's 
in New-Lebanon, on the east side of the valley, and three-quarters of a 
mile from the turnj)ike. 
A small chalybeate spring w^as seen on the east side of the road, half 
a mile south of Canaan Centre. 
Another w^as observed two miles N. E. of the Lutheran meeting 
house, in the town of Milan. It is on the land of John J. Link. 
Mineral springs are said to occur on Peter Hoosis' and on Mr. War- 
terburgh's farms, in Stuyvesant. 
Another, on the left of the road from Kinderhock to New-Concord, 
near the latter place. 
A chalybeate spring is stated to flow from the base of the mountain 
half a mile N. W. of Kline Corners, in Amenia. 
Sulphur Springs. 
A spring of this character flows from the base of the terrace next the 
meadows on the Best farm, about one and a half miles north from Kin- 
derhook. It probably flows from the gray clay, or from the junction of 
this, with the blue clay. Other springs of a similar character are said to 
rise in the adjacent marsh, and also in a marsh south of Kinderhook 
valley. 
Another occurs near the line of Claverack and Ghent, one mile east 
of Miller's tavern. Mr. Livingston, of Oak Hill, in Livingston, Co- 
lumbia county, informed me of a sulphur spring about a quarter of a 
mile east of his house. 
A small sulphur spring flows from the base of the mountain about 
a mile and a quarter N. N. W. of Ameniaville, on the land of Mr. 
Thomas Ingraham. It contains very little sulphuretted hydrogen, and 
sometimes its odour is so slight as to require to, be taken in the mouth 
to perceive that it is a sulphuretted water. Most hepatic springs 
spread a strong odour around them. This spring has some celebrity, 
as well as that at ICinderhook, and the Columbia spring, near Hudson.
