town. There is a detached block of granite on
the southern side of Pine Hill, the largest per-
haps in the state. There is a sulphur spring on
the bank of Cold Brook. The land, when well
cultivated, produces large crops of corn and rye.
Daniel Foster, in 1765, obtained a grant of this
township, on condition that each grantee should
pay a rent of one ear of Indian corn annually,
for the' space of ten years, if demanded. Con-
way is a great resort for travellers from the S. E.
to the White Mountains, for whom there are
good accommodations. See Fashionable Resorts.

and within its limits are situated most of the un-
granted lands. Large portions are mountainous
and cannot be cultivated. It is 76 miles in length,
and about 20 in width. Besides the stupendous
pile of the White Mountains, in this county, there
are several other mountains of no inconsider-
able height. Three of the principal rivers in New
England, the Connecticut, Androscoggin, and
Saco, take their rise in this county. Umbagog
Lake, the source of the Androscoggin, lies partly
in this county, though most of it is in Maine. Lake

Copper Harbor, Mn., Houghton co. In lat. 47°
28' and Ion. 88° 45', near the extremity of Kee-
waiwona Point, which projects nearly into the
middle of Lake Superior from its southern shore.
It is a tolerably safe retreat for small vessels and
steamboats, and is of importance on that account,
but it is not sufficiently near to the working mines
to be supported by any business population. A
post office, and a tavern, with a few humble
dwellings, is all that this place can boast of.
This harbor was well known to the French mis-
sionaries 230 years ago, and the green silicate of
copper or chrvsocolla, which formed the outcrop
of the black oxide of copper vein, was described
by those missionaries in a work published in
Paris, in 1626. In 1845, this mine was opened by
the Boston and Pittsburg Mining Company, but
it was soon exhausted of its ore, the lode having
been cut off by a bed of fine-grained red sand-
stone, as had been predicted it would be by the
geologist who first surveyed the mining regions
of Keewaiwona Point. The mine was therefore
soon after abandoned, and no more black oxide
of copper has been found there.

The rocks at Copper Harbor are a coarse con-
glomerate, a pudding stone, fine red sandstone,
and trap rocks, mostly of an amygdaloidal struc-
ture, the latter skirting the coast, and forming
the capes and headlands. Copper Harbor is now
distinguished from other places on Keewaiwo-
na Point for the absence of copper, which is so
abundant at Eagle River, and Eagle Harbor, 18
or 20 miles to the westward of it.

als are found here. This township is well wa-
tered by Wait's River and several of its branches.
