of oil in regions widely apart, one after
another in rapid succession, the sud
den collapse of the excitement from a
glut of the markets, the renewed rage
of the fever all betrayed the same symp
toms as the gold mania.
It was predicted that the gold fever
would subside and leave nothing but
ruin behind. But it has not done so.
On the contrary it has extended until
it has created flourishing cities and
communities in California, Nevada,
Oregon, Washington, Colorado, Ariz-
Oba;'Montatia, British cohimbia, and
Australia, and every fresh discovery of
gold furnishes a new illustration of
the marvellous ',ewer of these mineral
agents as elements of colonization. So
it is with petroleum. It has made Ye

Of the matter heing„ a humbug must be
rather short-sighted. There are the
towns built up .wholly by thes'e dis—

and so blocked up with it that they
cannot furnish rolling stock enough to
at:comfy:date the trade. "There are
the barrels, millions of them, all over
the region, oozing with petroleum.
There are the wells, yielding the oleag
inous fluid in endless quantities. There
are banks, newspapers, hotels, instil'•
ance companies, etc., all vesting on the
products of those wells: Those who
desire can see and judge for themselves.
Through all the 'season of naviga
tion the Allegheny river has boon run
ning crowded • with vessels of every
description. laden with petroleum.
Pittsburg, which used'to be the Iron
City, thinks now Of little else than pc.
troleum. Barrels of it swarm every
where. Refineries multiply. She has
become one of the great distributing
depots for the trade. 'The operators
Ching to Oil Creek as long as a foot of
ground was to be had on either side of
it, or near it, and there they sunk wells
and erected engines with a zeal that
can only be compared with that of the
quartz gold.miners., From Oil Creek
they spread themselves along the Al
legheny River hanki and islands, then
along Sugar Creek, and so to every
stream inVenango county. On all of
these, oil wells have boon sunk and oil
obtained, until the whole country is

These explorations egrried the ope

Jefferson counties, by following the
Clarion River, and indeed we can
scarcely name a county in that region
of Pennsylvania whore petroleum has
not been bored for. Most of the ope

LONGING TO REST,
—to:—
Open, 0 gate of sleep!
I urn weary, and fain would go
Where hearts never sorrow and eyes never
weep,
Bitterly, tears of woe;
I would rest in the shadow cool "and deep
Where the crystal waters flow.
Haste thee, 0 haste my soul I
For the earth grows dark with dread;
The billows are high that round thee roll,
And thy beacon jight bath fled:
I watch and weep for the_ distant goal,
The peace of the. quiet dead.
0, woe for this saddened earth,.
This storm•darked world of ours!
How the frost and blight nip the buds at
birth,
And blast in their bloom the flowers!
How the lip of laughter and voice of mirth
Pass with'the morning hours!
For heavy and dark doth lie
Death's shadow on all below ;
The changing beauty of earth and sky
Decks but a house of woo:
There's a fount of tears that is never dry--
A rest that we never know.
Then away to the beautiful land
Whence the shadow for aye is fled!
I shall meet the loved on its sunny strand,
The loved and the long lost dead,
I shall welcome a bright immortal band
By the angels gently led.
Then open, 0 gate of sleep I
I am weary, and fain would go,
Where hearts never_surrow and eyes never
weep.
Bitterly, tears of. woe ,
I long to rest in the shadow deep

PETROLEUM,
cept in Yenango and the points ithme:
diatoly adjacent. There petroleum is
the sole topic. Nothing else is known,
seen or hoard of.. It is everywhere,
and the whole prosperity of the dis,
trict is based on it.
Passing south of Pittsburg, we find
another petroleum region along Dun
kard Creek, in the counties of Fayette
and Greene, where many companies
flourish. Here, too, the boring has
spread to all the adjoinirg region, away
off into \Vest Virginia. For the pro
duct of this district the Monongahela
river is the channel of transportation.
But the great West Virginia oil com
pany is far south of this along the lit
tle Kanawha and Hughes rivers, and
all the tributary creeks. There the oil
las , been gathered as it oozed from the
earth for half a century or more. 'Now
it is bored for in scientific style, and
every foot of ground is occupied by
wells of speculators. The mania has
spread in West Virginia to such an ex
tent that we really think the area cov
ered there is more extended than in
Pennsylvania, although the product is
as yet nothing at all in comparison.
Then there are oil districts in Ohio,
Kentucky and Canada, of which as yet
little is known.
The astonishing feature in this de
velopment is the vast area of country
in which petroleum has undoubtedly
been obtained by boring. It is true
that in the leading points oil has for a
long period been known to ooze from
the ground and flow off into springs of
water, 'creeks and swamps. But the
great discovery was not owing to this,
the oil having been struck at a consid
erable depth while boring for salt.
Over an immense area of country it
has been subsequently obtained by
boring and in all these cases the same
geoliogeal formation has been found.
The query often asked whore was all
this oil deposited before the discoveries,
that we now find so many thousands of
wells able to go on pumping it with
out exhaustion ? is completely an
swered by reference to the depth at
which the petroleum is found.—North

AN IN G IN OLDEN T.—Tho
following incident is related by the
Washington correspondent of the
Cincinnati Commercial :—Whilo a

the merits and demerits of Mr. Lin

—at a dinner table, the other day,
one of them spoke about as follows, in
reply to some pretty severe reflections
A - Wilyts.‘. l ,. l .lnoauJillanklauxe.eaz.cui..m.a •
pacify: I: don't believe him to be the
ablest statesman in America by any
theans, and I voted against him on
both occasions of his candidacy. But
I happened to see, or rather, to hear,
something the other day that convin
ced me that, however defieient the old
man may be in the head, ho is all
right in the heart. I was up at the
Whke House, having called to see the
President on busineSs. • I was shown
into the office of lain private secretary,
and told that Mr. Lincoln was busy
just then, but would be disengaged in e,
short time. While I was waiting I
heard a very earnest prayer uttered
in a loud female voicoin the room that
adjoined that in which I was. I in
quired what it meant, and was told
that an old Quaker lady, a friend of
the President, had called that after
noon and taken tea at the White
House,"and that she was then praying
with Mr. Lincoln. After the lapse of
a few minutes the prayer ceased, and
Mr. Lincoln accompanied by a Qua.
keress not less than eighty years old,
entered the room I was sitting in. I
made up my mind then that Mr. Lin
coln was not a bad man, and I don't
think it will be easy to efface the
impression that the scene I witnessed,
and the V*o I heard, made on my
mind. if a good artist bad been.in my
•plaee, I think he could have found
the material for a painting, that would
have immortalised him, that of Mr.
Lincoln and the old Quakeress kneel
ing together in prayer."

CURE FOR P:0971I FEET.--"It is said
that frosted feet can be speedily and
certainly cured by being bathed and
well rubbed with kerosene oil ; for a
few times at night before' retiring to
bed. Several persons have a'ready
tried it, all of whom unite in pronoun
cing it-fm 490,01 cure, which, if they
aro correct, it is an easy and cheap
mode of getting rid ofn very sore and
troublesome affliction. Those who
have tried it inform us that the feet
should be warmed by a hot stove du
ring and after the application of the
oil, and it will certainly effect a spee
dy care. Persons suffering from the
puin of frosted feet will, no doubt do
well in giving it atrial, for it is surely
a vcry cheap ointment and ono which
is very easily applied.

A GREENHORN ON A RAILROAD,
"When we go to . the depot, I went
around to get a look at the iron. hogs.
Thunderationl it warn't no Moro like

goin' to describe the animule I'd say

darned if I know what it looked like,
unless it was a regular he devil, snor
tin' smoke all 'round and pantin,' and
heavin,' and.swellin,' and chawin' up
red hot coals like they was good. A.
feller stood in a house-like, feedin' him
all the time; but the more he got the
more he wanted and the'more he snor
ted. After a spell the feller catehed
him by the tail, and great Jericho ! ho
set up a , yell that split the ground for
mor'n a mile and•ft half, and the next
minit I felt' my legs a Wilggln,' and
found myself at t'other end of the
string o' vohickles; I .wasn't skeered
but I. had three chills and a stroke of
palsy in less than five minits, and my
face had a curious brownish-yellow
green-bluish color in it, which was
perfectly unaccountable. 'Well,' says

a seat in the nearest wagin, or car, as
they call it—a consumed long,:stea,m
boat lookin'.thing, with a string of
pews down each side big enough to
hold about a, man and a half. Just as
I sat down, the hoss hollered twice,
and started off like a streak, pitchin'
me head first at the stomanh of a big
Irish woman, and she gave a, trothen
dious grunt, and catohed . me by the
head, and crammed me under the seat;
the cars was a jumphi r- alid tearin'
along nigh unto forty. thousand Miles
an hour, and everybody was bobin' up
and down like' a mill saw, and every
wretch o'm had his mouth wide open
and lookin' like they was blau,' but I
couldn't hear nothin', the cars kept
such a racket Bjmobv they stopped
all at once; and then such another
laff busted out o'thom passengers as I
never horn before. Liar' . at me, too,
that's what made mo mad, and I was
mad as thunder, too. I ris up, and
shakin' my fist at'em, says I, "Ladies
and gentlemen, look tiller° ! Vni a

The Paris Ateniteur publishes a-let—
ter from' Wl)Yda' which supplies de--
respecting the festival of human
sacrifices recently held at Abomey, the
capital of Pahomey, before the King
and in Trosence of all his court and
the great dignitaries Of State, The
letter says:
The King having announced to the
people that in a short time, .to honor
the names of Agongoro, his ancestor,
and King Gezo; his father, forty pris—
oner's belonging to the rebel. tribe of
Akankas would be immelated on .the
market place at Abomey, with the us
ual ceremonies. Threedaysafterwards'
he decided that this barbarous deed
should be accomplished one hour be—.
fore sunrise. Many Europeans who
were in town had ah audience of the
monarch, and implored him togive
up the horrible Sacrifice. " Th . e - king
declared that he could not suppress
the national festival, but that in con—
sideration for the foreigners he con—
sented to reduce the number of the
victims to twelve. On the;eve of the
sacrifice he went to a great shed, un
der which the forty prisoners were
secured to posts. lie gave an order
that twenty—eight should be released,
and that they should be taken back
to their prison, and then addressed
himself to the twelve others, in order
to - 'announce to thorn that, nest morn
ing, in expiation of the crimes com
mitted by the chief of their tribe, and
to satisfy the shade of his father and
of his ancestor, they would be decap
itated before the assembled people.—
TIM dnfortunate Men heard the speech
with the utmost indifference. The
King added that two of them would
be executed with his own 'hand, and
retired. A short time afterwards

selected to be despatched by his broth
er; but in order to be.admittod to
such an honor, it was necessary to pu
rify their crime stained bodies, and
that thoy must pass the night in the
great fetish temple, prostrated before
the idols. On the next day the pris
oners were led to, the market place,
their hands bound behind their backs.
The king presided at the ceremony,
seated on a large ivory throne, sur
rounded by his court,:the 'great digni
taries of the kingdom:and the ministry.
On the centre of the place was a large
silver vessel, intended to receive the
blood of the victims. When the
hour had come, the king advanced,
took a very thin steel sabre and de
pressedthe heads of the two prison.
ers ho was about to immolate. 'These
poor Wretches, on the order, given' to
them, were placed at the edge of :the.
vessel which was about to catch their
blood. At the 'conclusion of the first
execution the crowd' uttered enthusi
astic shouts of applause for full five
minutes, after which the King resum
ed his seat on the throne. - The other
ten prisoners were executed by the
great fetish man, or high priest, who
picked up each victim's head and
showed it to the people, while they
uttered ferocious yells; When all was
