To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The rock has been foimed by the mineral sub- stances which are held in solution in the springs, as mag- nesia, lime, and iron, intermixed with the leaves and twigs of trees, and other particles. The highly-charged water of this spring, upon rising to 40 SAEATOGA. the air, can hold but one volume of the gas in solution, and "has tlierefore precipitated its excess of carbonates, particle l)y particle, around the apei-ture of the fountain, until the accumulation and the uniting of these precipitat...es has, in the lapse of time, formed the great mass of calcareous tufa so long known as the High Rock. Other fomiations of the kind are to be seen at Saratoga, in a greater or less extent. The Flat Rock displays similar deposits, and at the mouth of the Empire Spring there was found an accumulation of tufa about the size of an inverted two-quart bowl. Similar deposits are indeed always being made under like conditions ; but they rarely remain so un- disturbed, by currents of water or other agencies, as to obtain any very great bulk, and never the extraordinary dimensions of the High Rock, which is supposed to be the largest and most wonderful specimen of the kind in the world.
