* James P. Egan, Esq., of Zanesville, Civil Engineer, at the instance of the County Commissioners of Muskingum County, recently made an examination of the limestone along the Cincinnati and Zanesville Kailroad, in tlie western part of this County, with the view of ascertaining its quality for public structures, and whether the material was suitable for the new Court House about to be erected in Zanesville. From this report to the Commissioners the following extract is taken : " This (Newtonvill...e,) limestone covers a large portion of Newton Township, and ranges from fifteen to forty feet in thickness, built up in layers of various thickness, from one inch to thirty inches. It may be divided into four divisions, the upper part ranging from one to three feet thick, is not well stratafied. The next from three to five feet, made up of layers from three to fourteen inches, are easily raised, and are of fine and desirable quality. The next three layers are from ten to thirty inches each thick, and present the most inviting source as a building stone.
