NEW PLYMOUTH.
Friday.
A bed of shelly limestone has been discovered near the coast, six miles from New Plymouth. A singular geological feature is that it crops up through tufa, and is part of an older formation. It will be valuable for mixing with the pozzuolana of the locality for making hydraulic cement.
