The Early ilistory of Petroleum.
Prom the Pittsburgh Commercial.]
An intelligent correepondent of the
Meadville Republican, dating his coin
munication at Allegheny College, gives
a brief history of the discovery of pe
troleum as an illuminator, and gives
the credit of the discovery to S. M.
Kier, Esq., of this city. In the pub
lished histories of the application of
refined oil' to illuminating purposes,
the credit is given to other parties,
and for the sake of truth and that the
credit may be given where it is due,
this correspondent has been to the
trouble of collecting the facts for pub
lication. In Appleton's Cyclopedia it
is stated that the first movements to
wards the application of petroleum as
an illuminator was made by Eveloth &
Bissell, of New York, in 1854, who tes
ted some oil from Oil Creek; the result
of which was satisfactory. In favor of
Mr. Ilier's priority in this discovery,
it is truthfully stated that about the
year 1849 Mr. Kier discovered oil coin
ing up from one of his salt welle:near
Tarenttim on the Allegheny River,
After a time it accumulated in the re
ceiving tank to such an extent as to
be troublesome; and not knowing what
use to make of it,' he let it ran away,
Oil was discovered about - the same
time coming up from another salt well
(Mr. Peterson's) in the same neigh
borhood. About six months after the
discovery Mr. Kier conceived the idea
of putting it up as a medicine, and to
prevent competition, purchased the oil
front" Mr. Peterson's well for five years.
Some of the oil was then disposed of,
but Mr. K. found in the course of a
few months that he could not thus use
all the oil the wells were producing,
and did not know what to do with the
Surplus. He sent a portion of it to
Philadelphia to . Prof. Booth to have it
analyzed in hopes of finding some oth
er nee for it. The result of the an
alysis was it'suggestion that it would
make a splendid illuminating ell if a
suitable lamp was made for it. Mr.
Kier put up a small refinery, had lamps
made by two mechanics of this city,
And the result was that a °heap and
admirable illuminator was found. The
walls did not yield sufficiently to meet
the demand, and readysale' was made
of all the product from 1850 to 1855.
fifessrd. Evelett and Bissell did not
,make their diseaveq - until' 1854, three
.or fonr years after it was discovered
and in successful operation in Pitts
burgh. Mr. Bissell is credited with
the idea of boring for oll; and sending
ova Coptain Drake in 1859, who stink
the first well.
Before commencing his operations,
Drake went to Mr. Kier's wells •on the
Allegheny, examined them and hired
a blaoksriiith who was then working
for Mr. Kier, to go and bore for him.
The resultis Welt known. Mr. Drake
"Artier" oil at about 70 feet, from
which dates tho great - oil excitement
of the day. But it'may not be known
that Mr. Kier bought the first oil that
came from Mr. Drake's well and re
fined it at his refinery. From those
facts it would seem that Mr. Kier of
our own good Commonwealth, promp
ted and assisted by Prof. Booth also
of our State, refined and' used refined
petroleum, as an illurdinater, for four
or five years before the first well was
sunk on Oil Creek,

VOL. XX.
The Execution of Mary Queen of
Soots.
The great hall of Fotheringhay was
hung with black. In tho midst was a
scaffold covered with sage, and sur
rounded by a low railing. Around this
gloomy object nigh two hundred per
sons were assembled; amongst them
were the principal gentlemen of the
company, who obeyed the summons of
the Sheriff, in total ignorance of the
object for which they wore required to
be present. Behind the block stood
the executioner and his assistants, clad
in suits of sable velvet, tho last hold;
ing the axe behind him in such a posi
tion that it was concealed from the
eyes of Mary. As the Sheriff of North
ampton and his officers entered the
hall, there was a profound silence,
many a breath was painfully drawn .
but when the Queen herself appeared,
the moat manly eye was moistened.
Never had Mary appeared to greater
advantage; she walked firmly, scarcely
leaning on two noblemen by whom
she was supported; her dress, which.
WAS that of a Queen Dowager of
France, adding to the dignity of her
deportment. Her pointed coif,'edged
with bone lace, shaded her wasted feat
ures, and around her neck she wore a
gold cross, and from hor arms was ads
pended a pair of beads; a falling col
lar completed a costume at once regal
and becoming. 4.8 she gazed around,
neither abashed by the numerous' spec
tators, nor shrinking from the death
trappings before her, a murmur of ad
miration and pity was with difficulty
suppressed. Her attendants followed
her to the foot of the scaffold, which
WAS raised about two feet from the
ground, but before ascending she ex
claimed to Melville.
'Once more farewell good Andrew;
pray for thy- mistreas...atA Queen :
Thou shalt now see the end of Mary
Stuart's trials.'
'Thanks, sir,' she continued to Flux
let, who offered his arm, with rather
a penitent expression of countenance,
'it is the last trouble you will experi
ence at my bands.'
On the scaffold was a small wooden
stool and a cushion, and no sooner had
Mary's foot touched the fatal planks,
than the executioner, kneeling before
her, prayed her to forgive-him for the
office ho was about to perform ; but at
this moment her eye fell on the axe,
and she exclaimed, quickly
- 'Ah I would rather have my head
taken off by a sword, as they do in
France.'
'Blame me not, madam,' answered
the functionary, "I am forced to dis
regard your Majesty's wishes ; I . was
not reminded to bring a sword, and am,
perforce, obliged to use this axe which
T found here. That will not, I trust,
induce you to withhold your pardon!
do pardon you, my -friend,' said
Mary giving him her hand to kiss.
'Strange!' she murmured, 'that your
own Queen, when she expected a simi
ilar fate from the hands of an offended
sister, so dreaded the axe that ehe told
Chastleman she intended to desire an
executioner should be sent from France;'
now seated herself, and with the as.
sistants grouped around her, prepared
to listen to the warrant, which was
read aloud by Beale. At this moment
little Bonum (a favorite dog) contri
ved to make his way noiselessly through
the press, and, trembling and shaking
in every limb, concealed himself, as
usual, in the folds of the Queen's robe,
without being perceived.
Mary paid slight attention to the
reading, and when the sonorous voice
of Beale pronounced the concluding
'God save Queen Elizabeth,' she rous
ed herself from her reverie, and, grace
fully rising, prepared to address the
assenibly. Her countenance was
slightly flushed, and Bourgoine, who
had known her longest, remarked, 'it
wore the look of happier days! Her
voice was clear and ringing, as she
called all present to witness that she
a Soseroign Princess, in no wise sub
ject to the laws or. Parliament of Eng
land, was about to auffer—the victim
of violence and 'injustice. She spoke
of her imprisonment, and the wrongs
she had endured at the hands of the
Queen's councillors, protested her in
nocence of all the charges brought,
against her, thanked God for thus pub
licly
allowing her to confess her faith,
and frayed that her enemies might
be forgiven.
'Madam,' interrupted Dr. Fletcher,
the Dean of Peterborough,' my honor
ed mistress has command
'Sir,' exclaimed Mary, 'with you
have nothing to do; I will not hoar
you, and I command you to retire?
Pr. Fletcher by no moans apPrQvPd
this indifference to hie own eloquence;
he therefore pertinaciously continued,
'Madam, you have but a moment to
live; change your opinions, abjure
your errors, in order that you may be
saved.'
HUNTINGDON, PA., WEDNESDAY, MARCH 22, 1865.
'lt is useless,' answered the Queen,
you waste your time; leave me to die in
peace.' Then turning herself round
on the stool, she began to pray; but
Dean, making the circuit of the scaf
fold, again addressed her.
'Trouble me no further,' repeated
Mary, returning to her former peg-.
,tion ; but hero the Earl of ShreWsbury,
heartily ashamed of the scone, interpo
sed, to the no small mortification of
ttie zealous divine.
Mary then, falling on• her knee; re-
cited a portion of the Psalms aloud in
Latin, together with her attendants,
concluding with a prayer in French,
and holding the crucifix between her
clasped hands.
'Madam,' interrupted the Earl of
Kent, unable longer to contain him
self, 'cast aside these Popish trumper
ies.'
But'Mary continued her devotions,
fervently exclaiming. 'Lord.! Lord !
revive me into your extended arms,
and pardon me my sine.' As she re
sented herself, the Earl of Kent rough
ly inquired if she was done. 'For if so
Madam,' he concluded, 'prepare.'
The executioner now approached)
but the Queen gently repulsed him.
am not used to undress before so
numerous a company, or to be served
by such grooms'
Then calling her attendants, she as
sisted Elspeth to take the phis from
head dross, the girl being almost use
less from the violence of her sobs.
'Do not weep,' said the Queen in
French, 'I have answered for you.'
She then kissed them both, and desir
ed her other attendant to pray for her,
giving them her blessing.
'Wear this for my sake, Jane, she
said, taking the cross from hen neck.
Then turning to the executioner, she
said. 'My friend I know that all I
have.onLoarti,..3p
,yearn by right; let
me, however, bestow thiS
tendant, and you shall receive twice
its value in money ; but the fellow,
brutally snatching it from her hand,
growled 'it is my right.' Mary quiet
ly continued to lay aside her outer
garments, and then seated hersolf that
Jane Kennedy might bandage her eyes.
Unacquainted with the English mode
of execution, the Queen continued
seated, holding her head stiff and erect
to render the headsman's task more
easy; but ho stood, axe in band not
knowing what to do, until his assist
ant drawing her forced her upon hor
knees. Meekly she laid her head on
the block, and clasping her hands un
der her chin, the ono holding tho cru
cifix, the other hor book of 'hours,' sho
continued hor prayer. Unwilling to
maim her hands, the assistant drew
them, away, and as the words 'in man
us tuns Dontine,' yet lingered on her
lips, the axe descended awkwardly
and heavily. The weapon was blunt
and the man unnerved. Ho aimed too
high inflicting a deep wound in the
skull and struck from her extended
hands the crucifix and book. Stunned
by the blow, Mary remained motion
less, but the executioner trembled so
violently that the head was not de
tached until the third stroke. When
he. held it up according to custom, the
features were horribly convulsed.
'God save Queen Elizabeth,' ho cried•
as usual.
'So perish all her enemies,' subjoin
ed the Dean of Peterborough.
'Amen !' responded the fanatical
Earl of Kent. Every other voice was
suffocated by tears and sobs.
Mary's eyes were open, her hair was
blanched by grief, and the. French
writers affirm that the lips continued
nervous for more than a quarter of an
hopr.
Not content with their spoil, the ex
ecutioner proceeded to remove the
shoes and stockings of their victim,
when they discovered the poor little
animal nestling under his mistress's
petticoat. Be was dragged forth by
force, and by •no gentle hand, but with
a faint yell, he extricated himself, and,
crouched down between the shoulders
of the Queen and the head that had
been laid near the trunk, the faithful
dog, in a few moments, expirod.—Mrs.

108 are in the feet and hands, there
being in each 27. The quantity of
blood in adults is, on an average, 80
pounds, and it' passes through • the
heart once in four minutes. Only one
tenth of the human body is solid mat

pounds was dried in the oven till all
moisture was expelled, and its weight
was reduced to 12 pounds. Egyp

dried; they usually weigh about 7
pounds. The lungs of an adult erdirm

once, and if we breathe 20 times in a
minute, the quantity of air consumed
in an hour will be 48,000 cubic inches,

equal to 86 hogsheads.

Dear Globe.--Believing that it -will
be interesting to your numerous read
ers, I will give you the details of a
Sword presentation,
.that took plice
yesterday in the Company which is
composed generally
,of Huntingdon
County boys. The sword was Foam
ied to Ist. Lieut. S. B. Mentz, now,
commanding the eompany..
The company being formed by the
Ist Sergeant, Lieut.' Oeissinger,,lVho
had been selected to present the sword;
spoke as follows : , •
"Lieutenant Shontz I have the hon
or, in behalf of the members of Co. D,
to present you with this handsome ,to
ken of their gratitude and esteem.
This act tells you that your energies,
your proper performance of duty, and
your ability to command, basbeen duly
appreciated. Take the sword and
with it the - respect, friendship, and ad
miration of these noble hearted men.
Lot your conduct in the future be as
it has been in the past, and they will
never have cause to regret this act
of kindness toward you."
Lieut. Shontz replied as follows :
"Lieut. Geissinger, and members of
Co. D : In bestowing upon me this to.
ken of your respect, you develope the
cord of affection that entwines around
us, and words fail to give expression
to that high appreciation I entertain,
for your kindness toward me, and de-,
votion to the cause you have so nobly
espoused.
"May you never haVe cause to re
gret the stop you have taken, and rest
assured that no effort . shall be with,
held on my part to make this life as
cheerful as the stern realities of war
will permit. I take this beautiful
sword and feel honored in so doing.. If
I have done anything to merit this re
ward I feel oonfidont that I have done
nothing more than my plain duty.
More than half our term of service has
already expired,. and lam _proud to
say to all present' that I have yet to
hear the first angry word spoken to
any member of this company, for the
simple reason that no cause has been
given. I would thank you, but that
is such an inadequate gift that I dare
not offer it. Believe me this is not the
only gift you have bestowed upon me:
your willingness to serve me, your
pleasant smiles, your integrity and de
portment as soldiers and gentlemen,
have caused my position to be indeed
pleasant, and I shall ever hold your
conduct in the warmest esteem. As
this is a bully, sword received from .a
bully sot of men, I shall endeavor to
use it in a bully manner."

The Japanese women are, in gener
al, much better looking than the Chi
nese—the oyes less elongated, and
the whole expression of the face more
open, and free from cunning.
Their headdresses and hair, which
are objects of especial attention, are
generally arranged after a very elab
orate fashion, and when disposed to
their entire satisfaction, are not dis
turbed for a day or two. The pillow
of which they make use is admirably
adapted for keeping the well greased
and pasted tresses in order. It is
made of wood, and reminded us, a,t
first sight, of a gobd sized stereoscope.
Tho head rests on a small roll of linen
or paper, like a sausage in size, which
they place at the toP and one would
imagine that a stiff neck the next
morning would be the result of such an
unrefreshing pillow. As we are all
however creatures of habit, they most
probably prefer that. to which they
have always been accustomed. The
men likewise, have their heads dressed
only once in about twenty-four hours,
and sometimes at longer intervals. A
regular hair dresser arrangei their
head in the morning, invariably selPl3-
,
ting the front part of the house, prob
ably in order that the individual un
der his hands maybe able to amuse
himself at the passers by, during an
operation so tedious and elaborate.
The entire top of the head, from the
forehead, is kept shaved as clean as
the face of a beardless boy. The rest
of the hair, allowed to grow long, is
setuarated with greaw, to which, is
added a kind of gum or paste to make
it stiff. The locks, thus bedaubed,
are then combed up all around, and
tied at the crown of the head, the
ends sticking together forming a tail
piece, which is again_ doubled back
and tied, plenty of gum being applied
all the time to make it pliahle. When
it is finished, it rests on the centre of
the head, a short, neat little tail o`r'

Dmrovimr.rir.—The Pittsburg
CV/ante/via/ is in passessiOn of,thq facts
in a certain Jove:affair' Which was ft
nally settled' througb4he kind interfe
rence of Mayor Lowry and the official
assistance of Alderman 'Baer; and
the youthful pair are now enjoying a
happy, honey moon. It seems that a
good, looking,
,dashing young-man, a
'carpenter oacupation; - 4oirk the
Pity.of Baltimore, arrived c _in this.city
some nine 'Months singe; and` at_pnce
found emploYment at lucrative wages.
Shortly after his arrival hp, made the
'aeqiurintance of an estimable young
iady, and soon they were:affianced, and
the time set when they were:, to bei
made one flesh. Time passed Pri„and
one evening the twain visited . a sister
of the young lady and represented that
they had been made man nfidwife r by
an Alder Man of the city Wherepon a
• u
grand jollification took place pver the,
happy event, and everything went
"merry As a marriage belle for st &
month
. or two. - A few ,days since sus
piciona entered the mind of the sister,
at whose house the young couple were,
staying, that all was not, right,. and'
She took her sister to tirsir,cwhim With
many tom's she acknoiiindgeA that
she was not married to her pretended•
husband, and that her 'heart was Wont
nigh broken lest ;he should not fulfi
the solemn promises he had . mirdeito
make her his Wife.. The . famiiY,
by the way, are among the_ Moat*.
',actable in the city: at Once called Up
on Major Lowry and took' counsel . as
to the proper modEtof proceeding un
der the elm mstaytces.
. - Having
oit confidence in the statements made.
to him, his Honor, upon information,
sent an officer , in search of the; wry.
Lothario, and ho was soon taken:in
custody. When brought before the
Mayor he admitted that hobad deed , .
ved the young lady, but protested.that
he had the most unbounded affections
for her, and that tlvrilason why ho
had not kept faith withler Was.wrint
Of Means sufficient to go to hansekeep.
ing, as he would Wish.
The Mayor,' after reading
severe lecture on his con'auct, assured
him that there .was but one amiries for
him to pursue; by which , he could not
only make amends to ono who' AO
'loved not wisely but too well,' and,rit
the same 'time' save himself from the
disagreeable necessity of being . ini T
inured 'within the:dreary Walls of -.a
prison, was to faithfulfy carry into ef
fect his solemn engagements to the
young lady. Frankly admitting: his
delinquerioies, and professing theme:o
unbounded affection for her them
he had deceived, he agreed to make
the only reparation in his powers yat
once marrying her: ' This being agFee•
able to , all concerned, Alderman 'Brit
ler, who was present, was digPatolied
to'the residence of the young woman,
and soon the two wore made man and
wife. Thus "all's well that ends welt."'
