cept by the effoit of man, or the desceri-

If nothing interfere? to extinguish the

flame it coutimiO to burn, the water be'coines heated, and finally evaporates.

when the iiumg gas, burning with more

dense heat, consumes whatever combus

into the water: and even the collected mud at the side of the hole is pulverizcrf

with heat, as at the month of a furnace.

ere this gas suitably confined and di

rected, I have no doubt it might be used

to some valuable purpose, either to drive a steCi engine, or illumine a cily ; but no useumadu of it, nor does the owner of

the lanJ seem to rejard it with interest
