BEDFORD INQUIRER, j BEDFORD, Fa. Friday Morninff, April 20, IS6O. FEARLESS AND FREE." D. OVER-Editor and Proprietor. FOR PRESIDENT IN 1860, HON. SIMON m\mi OF PENNSYLVANIA, Subject to the dec it iqn of the National Convention.) FOR GOVERNOR: ANDREW 6. CURTIN, OF CENTRE COUNTY. REMOVAL. The office of the "Bedford Inquirer," has been removed to the brick building, one door south ot our former office, immediately opposite the Men gel House, and formerly occupied by Charles McDowell, Esq., dee'd. and known as the ' bee Hive Printing Office." SM¥ TP! As very few of our subscribers have heeded our former duns, wo hope now, all who owe us will biing, or send the money, or parts of it, or at least lot us hear from them, by Court Week. PEOPLE'S MEETING. A mass ineeiiDg of the People's Party of Bedford County, will be held at the Court House, in Bedford, on the evening of Tuesday, the first day of May, next, being the Tuesday eveuiog of Court week, for the purpose of rat ifying tho nomination of the Hon.

M., has again re moved the office. This time from Manspeaker & Sbafer's store, to the hardware store of Win. Hartley. For the past few years, the Post Office has been removed so often, that the people hardly become acquainted with its location, till it is changed again. For the ac commodation of our friend Mowry, and also for the convenience of tho people of this neighborhood, we would suggest that the P. M. should procure one of the travelling Haguei reau Wagons —he in g t get a second baud ouo at a cheap rate —then he could, for a short time, have the wagon iu the centre of the town, then in each end, again 10 the back streets, then in the Dutch Corner, at the Mills, iu Sbover's Valley , Red Bank, &c., &c., &c. The plan might le made, also, to answer h double purpose; he could hire au artist, and take likenesses, landscapes, aud the like.— Wo 'uavc no doubt all would be accommodated, satisfied, and well pleased; at least the novel ty wauld be charming. We do not believe Madam Rumor, when she says that Mr. Wm. Hartley was very anx ious to have the office in his store, and that for fear ho would desert bis new love, a secret conclave of tho faithful decided that Mr. Mowry should remove it there; of course not. Neither do wo believe the other rumor, that Mr. Hartley is anxious for the succession, (the Democracy iu this place having deoided on the oue term principle in this office,) and that iu consequence of his new and exalted posi tion, as a Deputy, as well as having tho office in his store, it would give him the "inside track." Ot course these rumors are not true. It they are, all we would say in conclusion to him, is, that the matter of the succession will be disposed of by the People's Party, ag its star can be 6eeu rising in 3ucb magnitude, that he who is not blind can see. A friend at our elbow just renin ks, that one of the electioneering promises of Mr. Mowry, for the office, that he would bring it to the centre of the town, has not been ful filled, but that he is even now taking it fur ther away. A good room could be procured at a fair rent, in so eligible location, but then tho rent must be saved, on the principle of all profit oni no expense. FUNNY. —To see the Bedford Gazette, re joice over an American victory ! Ju Rhode Island the Locofoco party wis so weak and had so little chauce of successt.hat they nominated no candidate for Governor, bo; voted for the American candidate j and now crow over his election ! We presume that that piper would have also crowed last wiutcr, had tho Kuow- Nothing candidate for Speaker, Smith of North Carolina, for whom its party voted, been elec ted. liut as our frieud Meyers was u Know- Nothing, in the palmy days of that party, we presume tho old leaven in him yet makes him rejoice at a Kuow-Nothing triumph. 'lbe Poor House biil passed the Legislature in a different shape, from that which we pub lished some time siuce. When wo procure a copy, wo shall publish it, and we may hive something to say on the subject. THE TARIFF. The last Gazette has an articlo on tbo subject of the Tariff. It blames our Senators —for what ? Why, the opposition being in a large majority in the last Legislature got up, and passed, some strong Tariff resolutions, whilst the Locofocos, offered resolutions to suit them selves, as an ameuduient. The amendment was voted down, and the resolutions passed—the Locofocos voting against them—and the oppo sition for them. That paper also trys to make capital for H. D. Foster, for Governor, claim ing him as a Tariff man. If Henry D. Foster had the power to pass a Tariff might he not do as Geo. M. Dallas, did, in 1846? Dallas was pledged to the Tariff of 1842, yet by bis cast ing vote, he defeated that Act, and passed the British Free Trade Tariff of 1846. No locos foco is to be trusted on thi3 matter, and espe cially when wo have a good lifelong Tariff man, like Andrew G. Curtin, agaiust them. It charges that tbo House of Representatives at Washington, has not yet passed a Tariff. The opposition are doing all they can to pass u law through the Llouae, which will no doubt be done, but that it will bo killed in the Locofoco Senate we have no doubt. On the first test vote in the llouso tho re sult was us follows, which we particularly com mend to the Gazette. FOR A NEW TARIFF. Republicans, 84 South Americaus, 12 Anti-Lecompton Democrats, 5 i Oid Line Whig, 1 Regular Democrats, 3 Totel, 105 AGAINST A NEW TARIFF. Regular Democrats, 64 Souih Americans, 4 Republican, 1 Total, 09 JUDGE DOUGLAS. The Gazette last week publishes a long speech of Judge Douglas, and asks us to copy it. We prefer giving our readers somethiog with more truth and less misrepresentation in in it. But bow comes it that the Gazette is now publishing the speeches of Douglas, the leader of squatter sovereignty, when only a few weeks ago the same paper was full of Judge Black's letters, showing that Douglas had deserted the democratic faith, and that squatter sovereignty was a heresy aud a hum bug? It seems that the Buchanan and Black wing of the Democracy is übout to be desert ed, even by the editor of the Gazette: and that the ex-Whig and cx-Kuow Nothing is about to be also an ex-democrut, by departing from the true faith as expounded by this great Bucbauan administration. It now looks very much as if Douglas would be nominated for President by the Charleston Convention, and should this be so, wa will promise the Gazette to publish more than enough of his speeches, or extracts from them, and Lis votes too, and especially on the sub ject of aDti-protectlon and free trade, as to which he has the very tocord we want to en sure his defeat in Pennsylvania and every oth er State fuvorable to tho protection of free las bor. Our ex-Know Nothing, ex-liepublioan, aud ex-Whig friend of the Gazette, denies in his last paper that the People's party carried the County at the late spring elections. This is as we expected. That paper points out a mis take of ours in regard to Napier, where we said that our Judge was elected by about 4. W'c should have said that for Justice of the Peace, we elected Mr. Hull, one of our party, by about a dozen, over Mr. Gump, their can didate for Legislature last fall. Is this a "base slander" on the Democrats of old Napier * In our article, week before last, we stated that our Judge was elected in Suake Spring Tp., by about 2; he had 11 majority, whilst the Gazette claims 23 majority there—only a alight difference of 34 ia this one Township ! Our majority was fully one hundred, if Dot more, in the County. The Gazette of last week still icfuses to make the amende honorable in regard to Esq. Old. ham peddling Helper books last Court week. Yet be knows the 'Squire was not in town,and never saw one. In his letter to us a few weeks ago, the 'Squire says that "there was a note addressed to the editor informing him that he was mistaken in the matter, and asking him to correct his error." The Gazette then reiterated the lie. Per Laps the editor and his iuforuiaDt, in relation to the two men selling Helper, were only seeing "double" that week. FULTON COUNTY. —Wo notice in the last Fulton Republican that the People's Com-- mittoe of that county met on Wednesday, the 4th inst., aud selected Hon. Mark Dieksou, Samuel Lyon, Esq., and Hon. David Mann as Congressional Conferees, to meet the Conferees of the other counties of the district at such time and place as may hereafter be specified. Dr. S. E Duffild was declared the choice of that county for Congress. CORRUPTION. Read the evidence on the outside of our papor in relation to the public printing. The witnesses are a>l Lioofooos, and they show an awful state of corruption in that party. To prevent the like in the future, tho people should put differeot men in power.

PRTOR DECLINES TO FIGHT—THE AFFAIR TERMINATED. WASHINGTON, Friday, April 13, 1860. Mr. Potter has returned to the House, and was warmly welcomed. The main facts of the affair with Mr. Pryor uro understood to be as follows: On Wednesday, Mr. Hindinan deliv ered a note, MivitiDg liiui out of the District, saying that his answer would be received by Mr. Keitt, as he was going away. Mr. Potter replied, that as the same liability attached to him under the Constitution of Wisconsin here, as elsewhere, be would receive any .jHimtnnni cation here, and referred to his friend, Col. Lander. At 3 o'clock yestorday a note was received through Mr. Chisman, on behalf of Mr. Pry or, asking whether Mr. Potter would accept a chuileuge here. Mr. Potter replied, that after his previous note ho did not see any necessity for such inquiry, and that ho would answer when a message was received. At-8 o'clock last night a challenge was sent, aod acoeptod at lli o'clock. in accepting, Mr. Potter wrote Mr. Lander saying be did not see any ground for a hostile quarrel ou so trivai a cause, and he deprecated dueling ; but as there was an evident purpose to pursue him to that extremity he accepted, with the bowie-knife for the wea*pou. Mr. Lauder stated this fact to .Messrs. Keitt auo Chisman, when tho acceptance was delivered. Mr. Chisman objected to airaDging a meet iug with such weapons without coueultiug bis priucipd. At 3i o'clock this morning he ad dressed Mr. Lauder, stating that he positively declined a meeting on his own responsibility, as the weapon was savage and barbarous, and bo closed the correspondence. Mr. Liuder, without consulting Mr. Potter, addressed a note to Mr. Chisnoau, statiua that as the weapon seemed to be the cause of the difficulty, he would meet Mi. Pryor with any one he might chooso. This invitation was refused on the ground that he had no cause of quarrel with Mr. Lander, aud there the matter terminated. When Mr. Potter consented to accept Mr. Pryor's challenge last nigbt, ha delivered to his friend, Col. Lander, a private letter, which, probably, had been prepated in expectation ot such a contingency. It recapitulated somewhat the alleged cause of quarrel, aud stated tijat he regarded the cause of free speeoh as im periled iu his persou, and was determined to vindicate, to the last extremity, his owe person al rights, as well as those of hia constituents. Such ia the substance of his uote, which may or may Dot be published. He aud his friends regarded this whole difficulty us furnishing evidence of the settled purpose either to in timidate him into submission or to compel a resort exposing his life to unequal clianocs.— Hence, while condemning the practice of duel ing, he felt there was no alternative but to meet the uecessity iu the manner proposed. Oue extraordinary feature about this affair is that the usual request for au explanation ot the language excepted to was not made, thus proludiug any possibility of accomuiodatiou.— All candid men admit there was no good ground for a combat, under the code, because the case was on? which discreet friends would have re quired to be adjusted. Mr. Pryor's ouiy mes sage was a direct challenge, which oaght never to have been borne for such an offeoso, even with his construction of it. The refusal to accept Col. Lander's volun tary cartel occasions much comment. lie re garded the rejection of Mr. Pottei's terms, and the language accompanying it, a reflection upon his principal, and acting upon the precedent iu the Graves and Cilley case, substituted him self. To the Associated Press. WASHINGTON, Friday, April 13,1860. The following is believed to bo a correct statement of the Pryor and Potter affair up to noon to day: Immediately after the occur rence in the House, Mr. Pryor dispatched, through Mr. Hindman of Arkansas, a note to Mr. Potter, asking him to leave the district to receive a written communication. Mr. Potter replied that as Mr. Pryor's note contemplated avoiding the anti-duelling pen alties in the District, and that as his (Putter's) disqualification was contained in the Constitu tion of Wisconsin, be could not leave the Dis trict. On this Mr. ChisemaD, a substitute for Mr. Hindman, who was obliged to leave tor Arkansas, handed Mr. Potter a peremptory challengo from Mr, Pryor, dating his note Vir ginia. Col. Lander, who had been designated by Mr. Potter as his friend, handed, after a lapse of twelve hours, a note to Mr. Chiseman, accepting tho challeuge, and naming common bowie knives as tho weapons, and to fight in open air with two friends, each armed with Colt's pistols. Mr. Chiaoman protests against this form of weapon as absurd, barbarous and vulgar, and offers to construe tho code in the most liberal way, provided other arms are suggested. , Mr. Potter authorized Mr. Lander to de cline any other terms, and Mr. Lander offers to substitute hiqpself for Mr. Potter, with oth er weapons, to both of which propositions, without oonsultiug Mr. Pryor, Mr. Cheaeman replies, that tho first is vulgar and tnadaissa ble, aud that, while appreciating Mr. Lander's zeal for his friend they have no cause oI quar rel with biui, aud consequently no deuand to make on him. Mr. Pryor is still in Virginia, aud has not yet heard of the action of bis sec ond in the matter. The latter is beiitved to have aeted after consultation with Hessrs. Miles, Keitt, Mason and Hammond. Mr. Potter came into tho House at 14 o'- clock, and was greeted by a number of bis friends, with whom be retired to aoloak room. Ihe above is based on information obtained in Democratic circles. The following in relation to the same corres pondence is the versiou in Ilepublicau quar ters: It is understood that after Mr Potter re plied to Mr. Pryor's first note that he would receive any message that might be sent him in the District, Mr. Pryor asked him if he would acoept a challenge, to which Mr. Potter re plied that he would inform hiui whenever a challenge reached him. Mr. Pryor then sent bitu a challenge, to which Mr. Potter replied, reforring htm to Hoi. Lander to make the ne cessary arrangements. These terms, as proposed by Col. Lander to Mr. T. P. Chisman, were, that Mr. Potter, though disclaiming allegiance to the code, would fight Mr. Pryor in any place, in doors or out, in the District, with bowie knives.— This was declined, on the grouud that the weapons were barbarous aud inhuman, and not used among gentlemen. To this Col. Lauder replied that Mr. Potter detested the whole system of dueling as bar barous aud unchristian, but being called to ac count for the exorcise of free speech ou the floor of the House, he consented, not being accustomed to the usual weapons of the duel ist, to meet him in away that would place them on equal terms, and to uauiu the time, place, and weapons. But, as the weapons named by Mr. Potter were objected to, Col- Col. Lander, without Mr. Potter's knowledge, tendered himself to Mr. Pryor without re striction, which was also declined on lite ground that he hud no quarrel with Col. Lan der. The correspondence between the frieuda of Mr. Potter aud Mr. Prj'or did not close till tbi.s morning. Li cannot be published until Mr. Cbiaman, who was Mr. Pryor's principal friend, oau be seen and his consent obtained. From the New Yurk Tribune. The Oil Wells of Westers Pennsyl vania. HOLLAND, Venango Co., Pa., / March 7, 1800. , J The mineral oil of this regiou was kuowc to the Indians by the name of iseneca Ui, and wis used by theui for medicinal purposes, lu searching lor this oil, there have been manv pits found which have evidently been used for gathering it, but left putposely coucealed, and supposed to have been worked by the early Preuch settlers. Its existence has been kuowu since the lirst settlement of the eountry, but was considered nearly worthless until a few years since. An analysis proved that by recti fying, it subserved an exoeileut purpose, both us a fabricator aud illuminator, since which time the demand has exceeded the supply. The oil was enly gathered where it rose spontaneously, on Oil Creek, aad along the banks of the Alleghany, where dtiriug the beat of Summer it rose to the surface aud was gath ered with woolen blankets, but iu limited quantities. Mr. Drake, the agent of the New- Haven Oil Company, bored the lirst Artesian well iu the vicinity of Titusviile; but iu Orange Couuty, and at the depth of G9 feet struck a veiu, which has since yielded from 10 to 20 bnrreis per day. It created the most intense excitement, and operations for raising the oil were immediately commenced along Oil Creek, Aieghuuy River, iu Warren aud Crawford, but maiuiy in Veuango County. The result has tar exceeded the most sanguine expectations. The Crossly well, which, as yet, exceeds any other, yields from 60 to 76 barrels per day.— This is no exaggeration. There are some fif teen others in operation yielding from 6 to 30 barrels per uay. These wells vary in depth from 5U to 200 feet. Tbe deepest oue yet sunk is on the Alleghany River, near the mouth of Oil Creek. Alter reaching the depth of 306 feet, they were about to abandon it, when they struck a lags vein The oil of this well is ot a superior quality to that found iu those of less depth. It is nearly as pure us tie re fined oil of other wells. No well has yet proved a failure. It is stated there are already 500 wells completed, or iu progress, and witbiu a few weeks there will be as inauy more com menced. Many of these wells are at the base of rugged bluffs aud steep hills, worthless for puiposesof tillage. Xiiis discovery has already produced a great change iu the prospeots ot Western Pennsylvania. Men are here from al! parts of the country preparing to engage in the busiucss, and a few capitalists who seem disposed to create a mo nopoly ; hence they are suspected of not being particularly uuxious lor a general diffusion of the tacts abroad. The business is engaged.iu a variety of ways. The owners of the land being generally persous of limited means, and unacquainted with the busiuess, prefer leasing for a half, nud not uuirequeotly of late with a clause added stipulating foru bonus of from SSO to SSOO, according to locality and the share of oil "reserved." A lease usually comprises at least an aero and upward, generally depending on tho "size of the pile" and the exteut of the "fever" of the "lessee." l'louty of "sites" are yet for sale, though they ate fast being taken up, aud the price continually advancing. JUSTICE. Southern "Hospitality" nud Democ racy. That leading Southern Journal, the Atlanta (Georgia) Coufedracy of tho 27th ult., has tho following item : "EIGHT SIDS UP WITH CARK." —An old Abolition reprobate, calling himself Dr. Hol aeher, from Pennsylvania, was taken up io our city, on last Saturday, for having in his posses sion incendiary doauments. Tho bird was stripped of bis borrowed pannage, and treated to a coat ol ULACK, a color more in accordance with his political principles, and murked to "Horace Greeley, Tribuuo Ofliue, New York City, Right aide up with care." Thus parod ied, he left for New York, via Chattanooga and Norfolk. Horace, ihe Black Knight of the Tribuuo, will please inform us of tbe safe ar rival of his "Brother" in iniquity. This climate is to too hot for Abolionisti. Our readers, says the Lewisburg Chronicle, will mostly discover in the victim of this brutal treatment, Dr. Jacob tlolaober—an iuoffcusive citizen of New Berlin in Union county— who has spent alt his time and strength for years past as a colporteur for Democracy and Slavery. No maD in our region has labored as bard as he has for that cause. lie has brawled on the streots, and peddled his "Democratic National Platforms" from Pennsylvania to Georgia at least, and had not an Abolition idea in his head when last here. At the same time he has contended for union, for biot/ur/y love and charity between all part* of (he Union ; and it probable that his condemnation of disunion have been taken for "Abolition" at the South. Some think it may be the latub (suggestive of "free wool,") he has hedged iu between the linn and the wolf on his "Platform," or that some of his Scripture texts are unsound, that ha 9 caused his ejection from the laud of love, supreme happiness, and true Christianity. Put Nullification is the ouly safe Democracy among some of the "sunny chivalry." Th.'B application of Lynch law to a crippled, harmless old man, plainly shows that those who will crush out all the rights of one c!a.? of men when they have the power, will not hesitate to trample upon any others when tboy can do so with impunity—a fact which the Dr. and Lis many friends we trust will Like to heart, aud duly weigh. We hope that the Dr. is not in jured in bis benevolent efforts to show the holy and natural alliance of sham Democracy aud Slavery. His expulsion from the brave South rons' coasts is au exploit ecjuil to the driving ot the \uokee schooimarm from Sutnptcrviilo in S. C., or the shootiog of the cow iu Charles towu, Va 1 PRIOR TURKED TO Himtxi.i; Mr. Lovejoy, in making the speech against Slavery which we publish on another page of this paper, en forced bis remarks by some energetic gestures, of which raising and shaking Lis clenched fist was one. Unable to meet his arguments, and groining under the ponderous blows which he level .d at their pe culiar in stltution, Nome of the Southern members attempted to interrupt .Mr. Lovejoy's speech, and to shift the issue by objecting to his style of gesti culation. They affected to regard bis upraised arm and clenched fist as intended to insult and menace them, and in this way to substitute for Mr. Love - joy's disquisition on the merits or rather the demei its o. Slavery, a discussion as to the proprieties of Congressional debate. Mr. Pryor of Virginia, act ing as the mouth piece of bis fellows, accused Mr. Lovejoy of "gesticulating in a menac ing and ruffian ly manner," at the same time, byway of enforcing his accusation, shaking his onw fist at >1 r. Lovejoy. Whereupon, Mr. Potter of Wisconsin exclaims, "You are doing the same thing " This remark of Mr. Potter's, ex* using, as it did. by an irresistible argument am ad komiuem , the groundlessness of this criticism upon Mr. Lovejoy, at least in the mouth of Mr. Pryor, Mr. Pryor af fected to consider as a personal iusult, and made the occasion of a challenge. Mr. Potter accepts the challenge, and, in the exercise of his prerogative, fa the challenged party, selects as the weapon to be lis (1 the Southern bowie-knife—a selection made, we apprehend, in the very spirit of the original observation whicb provokud the ire of Mr. Pryor, intended, in fact, to show- up Mr. Pryor as a fire eater, much as the original remark had shown him up as a lecturer on Congressional proprieties. Mr. Pryor objects to this weapon, on the ground that it is'.savage aud barbarous," au odd objection, in deed, on the part of this self-appointed bully of Slavery. considering that the bowie-knife is almos'. as much a peculiar institution of the South as Slavery itsehs. The challenge sent by Pry or was a mere attempt to intimidate, in which he has had just about as much success as he did in his attempt to stop Air. Lovejoy. If any duels are to b" fought on the question of Slavery, the bowie-knife would seam to be the very weapon most suitable to the subject matter.— N. Y. Tribune.
