GARRETT COUNTY.
GARRETT COUNTY, the last formed county in Maryland, is the extreme Western division of the State, and ia bounded on the east by Allegany County, south by the North Branch of the Potomac River, west by the State line of West Virginia, north by Mason and Dixon'a line, and contains an area of six hundred and seventy square miles of territory. Is crossed its entire length north and south by the Great Savage Mountain, a distance of over forty miles. This Main Ridge of the Alleganies divides the east and western waters. Two-thirds of the territory of the county lies west of this Summit Ridge ; on the east is the Maryland Coal Basin, one-third of which is in Garrett County ; on the west, flowing north from the south end of the county, is the Youghiougheny River and Castleman'a River, draining with their tributaries and other valuable but undeveloped coal and iron region. The streama flowing from the west side into the Youghiougheny are Laurel River, Snowy Creek, Harrington, Muddy Creek, and Buffalo Creek; on the east side, Cherry Creek, Little Youghiongheny, Deep Creek, Lary Run, Bare Creek, and Mi!] Run. The Savage River has its sources and tributaries in this county, and empties into the North Branch of the Potomac, at the extreme eastern end of Garrett County.
The geology is composed of sand stone, lime stone of fine quality, and stone coal of fine quality, as above atated. No county in the State contains more valuable mineral deposits in coal and iron ore. The elevated table lands on the western side of the Savage Mountain, and between that and
