At a distance estimated by Mr Lyman at 2400 feet below the Long Beach Scam, or about 2130 feet below coal No. 29, mentioned above, occuris a bed of good coal, three feet eight inches and a quarter in , or, including a clay part- ing, which appears in some portions, but not in others, four feet one inch and a half. It is called tlie " Tracey ; Another seam is indicated in Mr Poole's and Mr 's plans, between the " Tracey " and seam 29 above, and 43o to 4(30 feet above the former; but I have no information in respect to it. The Tracey bed is now worked on the peninsula between Cow and Mire Bays, and is the most eastern coal worked in this coal-field. To the southward of it, however, and at a distance representing at least a thousand feet of beds, there is said to be still another coal known as the " Spencer Seam," before we reach the beginning of the M'llstonc-grit series, Avhich would thus seem to be at least 4500 feet below the newest beds seen near Glace Bay. An important question arises here as to the equivalency of any of these beds with the Coal measures of North Sy
