OIL IN FULTON COUNTY. —The Fulton Republican
of the 17th ult., says that within a few days the oil
fever has assummed collosal proportions. The
form of "proportions" taken we snppose. by oil
fevers at certain stages. From researches quietly
made it has been discovered that coal oil does ex
ist (to what extent has not yet been ascertained) in
various parts of our county, and already the repre
-eutiatves of an established company —what compa
ny we do not know—are on tlie ground taking leases
.if the various tracts of laud surrounding our town,
with the understanding we are informed, that ope
rations shall be commenced at an early day.
HONORABLY DISCHARGED.—First Lieut. M. P.
Doyle of Schellsburg of the 21st Cavalry, Co. 1,
has been honorably discharged the service by rea
son of disability. Lieut. D. was twice wounded du
ring the late campaign : the last wound was received
iu the engagement at Boydton. which disabled him
from serving in this branch of the service. In his
retirement the service loses a brave and efficient of
ficer. The best wisher of the regiment go with
him.
"Our Young Folks." for February is very enter
taining. An hour's perusal attested to us the interest
of three of its articles. "David Matson "the
Portrait." and "Trapper in a tree." The first is by-
John G. Whitteir. A sailor makes a voyage to the
Mediterranean, is captured on the Barbary coast,
and held in slavery a number of years. He is libe
rated and on his return home with presents to his
wife and boys, he learned at an intermediate Port
(from her husband; that she ia married again. "God
is great" said poor David Matson. His will be done.
I loved her : but I shall never see her again. Give
these with mv blessing to her and the boys' and he
handed over with a sigh the little bundle containing
the gifts for his wife and children. "He shook
hands with his r':vl. "Peletiah " said he looking
back as he left the ship, "be kind to Anna and rny
boys." The story is suggested by "Enoch Arden,"
and the writer, considering who he is. makes a singu
larly inaccurate statement in regard to that poem. —
He says "who of my young friends have read the
sorrowful story of "Enoch Arden," So sweetly
and siinpiy told by the great English Poet. It is the
story of a man who went to sea leaving" behind a
sweet young wife and little daughter." Enoch Arden
left behind him "a sweft young wife" and three
children.
"And merrily ran the years, erven happy vear,

COFFKKHEAD CAGED. —For mouths past; or. ever
since the September draft, one J. Nelson Sipes,
Esq.. the embodiment of Peace Democracy; the
man who that he might have his name stricken off
the enrollment previous to the nine mouth's draft,
declared upon his oath that were his wife or chil
dren to be assaulted in his presence, and brutally
ill-treated before his face, he would not. in retalia
tion, raise his hand for their defence, so everlasting j
peaceful was he : the man too, whom the Loeofoco
party of Fulton county, because of his opposition
to the Government, looked upon but as a "little
lower than the angelsand the very same man
whom these same Lscofocos at the late October
Election, notwithstanding their knowledge of the
tact that even then he was skulking among the
mountains, a fugitive from the draft, a disgrace to
his l'riendes and family, elevated to the position of
District Attorney, has eluded the vigilance of the
Provost Marshal and the Military. But at last Nel
son has "come to grief." On Saturday last a
squad of Military, under the command of Special
Agent Hoke, while out on a scout, discovered the
uon-acting Dist. Aty. making tracks through a
wood. Chase was made, and soon the game was
overhauled and captured. He was brought to town
under a select military escort, and temporarily
lodged in that burglar proof building familiarly
jeleyed "the jail." Here he was kept until Mon
day morning when he was taken to Chambersburg,
from whence, doubtless, he will speedily be sent to
"the front."— Fulton Republican.
A HAPPY PARTY. —The Lancaster Examiner of
Saturday 29th nit., says: On Friday our streets
were enlivened by one of the largest, sleighing par
ties we have ever witnessed. There was one four
horse sleigh, twelve two horse sleighs and one one
horse, all crowded by pupils from Linden Hall,
Litiz. The young ladies —112 in number-looked ex
tremely happy and enjoyed their holiday sleigh-ride
with great apparent pleasure. The party, the lar
gest seen in this vicinity for twelve years, came by
war of Manheim and stopped at Michael's Hotel,
where they were entertained in the usual style of
that well known and excellent hotel. Tney return
ed to Litiz, "on the evening of the same day. all
doubtless well satisfied with their steighing trip.
AUTHORITY TO RAISE VOLUNTEERS UNDER THE
LAST CALL. —Governor Curtin has received outkori
ty from the War department to raise fifty compa
nies of voluuteers under the call of the President
of the 13th of December last for three hundred
thousand men. The said companies are to be as
signed to regiments now in the service wherein va
cancies exist, consolidated into complete regiments,
as may hereafter be deemed best. Special authori
ty will be granted to raise companies, preference
being given to persons who have been honorably
discharged, or who may be detached from reduced
regiments in the field, or mustered out of service in
consequence of consolidations. The term of ser
vice will be for either one, two or three years, as re
cruits may desire. These troops must be mustered
into service by tne Tib of February next, to be cred
ited on the quota of the .State prior to the draft.
STOLEN" MONEY RETURNED. —The York True Dem
ocrat says:—"Some two or three weeks since, a
widow lady residiug iu South George street, who
keeps a small grocery -tore, was robbed of between
three and four hundred dollars. Late one night last
week, she heard a voice calling her in the yard,
saving "here is your money." Beiug afraid to
open the door, she let the matter rest until morn
ing. when she fonud a small brg hanging inside the
yard gate, containing the greater part of the lost
money."
ENOCH ARDEX. —The universal interest felt in this
charming poem by Mr. Tennyson, lias induced
Messrs. Tiekoor and Fields to issue a twenty-five
cent edition for popular aeading, in addition to the
other and more costly editions which they publish.
The extended publicity given by this cheap edition,
it is hoped, may result in the introduction of this
moat beautiful and touching idyl into all the house
holds in the land.
A Convention of newspaper publishers will be
held at Harrisburg on Thursday, February 9th insL,
for the purpose of petioning Congress in favor of
the repeal of the dntv on paper, and of taking such
other action as may be deemed beneficial to the bus
iness of printers and publishers. The publishers
of the State are respectfully requested to attend.
THE BROAD TOP SEm-Brrujcixors COAL REGION.—
The Broad Top Semi-Bituminous coal region, notwith
standing the hindrances consequent from the inability of
the Pennsylvania Railroad to furni-h power, in time and
measure equal to the wants of the Broad Top Trade—the
trunk road being wholly inadequate to the movement of
the traffic offered at its many sources business supply
—in the year 1864 increased its product over the preced
ing year .80,9fi6i ton?.
The Broad Top coal region was o{*ned to the market
in 1856, and, consequently, 1864 was its nimh year of
trade: from 42,000 tons of coal in 1856. it increased it*
product in 1864 to 386.645.
The Cumberland, Maryland, coal region was u|iened to
market in 1842. and its eleventh year, to wit, 1852, its
tonnage was 334,178 being 52.467 ton? less than the
Broad Top in its ninth year.
This comparison is made, not in disparagement of the
Cumberland region, which in 1860, the year before the
war. forwarded to market 788,909 tons of coal: bat simply
to show that the growth cf the trade of the Broad Top
region has been more rapid than was the trade of its
neighbor, in Maryland.
The quantity of coal forwarded from the Broad Top re
gion, in all the nine years of its developeiucnr. is herein
given:
1864 385,645 tons. 1859 130,505 tons.
1863 305,687 tons. 1858 105,478 tons.
1862 354.135 tons. 1857 tons.
1861 272,625 tons. 1856 42,000 tons.
1860 187,855 tons.
