THE CROPS.—The " mild spring weather which has prevailed for •the last few days has caused farmers throughout the coutitry Ito` "prepare', fOr• ieeding, and his directed public attention to the conditionof the win • ter crops. . Reports from nearly all parts of the. country concur showing" that the prospect for a heavy , yield of winter wheat has•seidoni looked more favorable than at the present time. •The past winter has been remarahly favorable for wheat. The wintecwas unusually steady', and although there was but little severely cold weather, the ground. steadily remained frozen, and was covered with snow for a longer period than 'has been known for many years. Theseiare the most favorable conditions for wheat,-cold arid steady . weather, and the ground covered with snow., It is the vari able weather, in the winter time that causes " winter-kill" in wheat. Changes from cold to warm, freezing and then thawing, cause an exposure of the tender roots of the wheati and winter-kill follows. Accounts front nearly the entire agricultural district of the'West concur in the statement that the wheat never looked better than now ; and if it is fortunate enough to escape the fly, weavil, rust, and other possible back sets we may expect a bountiful crop. SPRING.—In the mornings andevebingi the air is still raw and cold, and yet the warb ling of the birds, and the warm rays of the sun, and the balmy air of the afternoons, tell us that spring at last has mine, in all its freshness and beauty. Nature will soon be changing her robes of <lull, sober brown, for hues of fresh and delicate green. Every thing seems to have awakened into new life and energy, after an unusally severe wif iter. It is in such days as these we feel like escap ing from the drudgery of every-day li lb to the hills or along the brooks which run through ; the valleys. 'Welcome, glorious spring, standing midway between winter's tedious frosts and hot and quivering sum mer, coming to us Itidened with the first blossoms and flow ers or the SekiliMl, and laughing all over in the very gladness of "her heart. What is inure beautiful than the best tender flowers of spring ? Lowlier far are they than all summer's 'idlest stores.

SUCCESS OF THE 7-30 LoAN.—t air readers will notice that subscriptions to the popular 7-30 Loan are still continued in the most liberal manner. To the old World the suc cess of these Peoples' Loans is ,ffle of Ihe wonders of a Republic. The Government does not seek to borrow in foreign markets; it offers no premiums to bankers, but ap peals directly to the people, and with what access is sufficiently shown by the fact that during forty-three days they subscrib ed and paid the cash down for one hundred and sixty-one million dollars to the 7-30 Loan. There can be no stronger evidence of public confidence in Government securi ties. While nearly all other stocks have gone down from,l wenty to fifty, and even a greater per centl within a few weeks, all forms of U. S. bonds and stocks have re mained firm except the slight fluctua tions that are', incident to all rapid changes in the money market. Our read ers Wlll remember that the subscribers to the 7-30 Loan receive semi-annual interest at the rate of seven and three-tenths per cent. per annum in currency, and at the end of three years from June 15th, 1865,- they will have the option of receiving payment in full, or converting their notes into a .5-20 six per cent. gold interest bond. The late great decline in the premium on gold makes these notes more desirable than ever as an investment, audit should not be forgotten that their exetion from state or muni cipal taxation adds largely to their value. There is no intefruption in the receipt of subscriptions or the delivery of the notes. All banks, bankers, and others acting as Loan Agents, Is - ill pay subscribers the interest in advance from the day of sub scription until ;Kane 15th.

MME - .7 The Wur„ _ 15.67;1=21iikkiy8 • Richmond and Petersburg have beett evacuated, and General Lee with the Cont. federate army has retreated towards North Carolina, probably to join Johnson. This morning We. continue the history of the great battle on the Appomattox. On Saturday morning the Twenty-fifth corps, under Weitzel, was on the north - bank of the James, about six miles southeast of Richmond. The Ninth corps was along the Appomattox river, and in front of Peters burg. The Sixth corps extended from the Ninth along the Boydton road almost to Hatcher's run. The Second corps was on the Boydton: road at Hatcher's run. The Second corps was on the Boydton road near the intersection with White Oak road. Then came the Fifth corps along the White Oad road, and Sheridan's cavalry on the extreme Federal western Rank, at Dinwid die Court Douse. On Saturday the battle was begun by Sheridan and the Fifth and Second corps. They made a determined attack upon the Confederate works along the Boydton and White Oak roads. They fought from day light until about two in the afternoon, when the Confederate troops gave way and aban doned their works. At two o'clock in the afternoon, Sheridan and the Fifth corps pushed the Confederates hack to the Five Forks, near the Soutbside railroad, thirteen miles west of Petersburg. A. large force of Confederates was cut off from the main body; the Southside railroad was soon reached near Sutherland Station, and the Second corps was at once moved forward ; at dark the cavalm . Seeond and Fifth corps, Were all 011 the Southside railroad. General Lee withdrew his troops to the north bank of the Appomattox, and during Saturday night prepared for the evacuation of Rich mond and Petersburg. Cm Sunday morning the entire Federal line attacked the Confederate works. The Ninth corps attacked Petersburg, and the Sixth corps attacked the Confederate lino west of Petersburg. Sheridan, the Fifth and Second corps turned east along the South side railroad and Boydton road, and ad eauced I Nviird€3 Petersburg. The Twenty fort rt h corps was in reserve. Sunday was lie day of fiercest lighting. The battle rageil from Deep Bottom, all along the line to ilie Five Forks, thirteen miles west of Petersburg. For over forty miles length the troops were in conflict. The Con federates fought to cover their evacu- idiot] ; for during Saturday night Lee began In draw them nil . towards North 'arol Ma. The Federal line gradually ad anced at all points. Sheridan marched east along the Appomattox. The Sixth and Ninth corps broke:through the outer Con federate works at Petersburg. By noon, the confederates, excepting at Petersburg, had all withdrawn to the north side of the Appomattox. The Federal lines gradually closed around the city, and at half-past four in the afternoon they extended from the bank of the Appomattox, three miles west of Peterslmrg, around to the river bank again, just east of thn city. Lee spent ?ill this time in withdrawing his army, and during Sunday night his rear guard Eibandoned Petersburg. Ahnost at the saute time his troops evacuated Rich mond. The line of retreat was westward, toward Borkes‘ ille, and from there south ward towards Johnston's camp, in North Carolina. Early on yesterday morning Petersburg was discovered to be evacuated and the Ninth corps marched in. At half past eight, some of Weitzers negro troops from Deep Bottum, on the north side of the dames, marched up to Richmond and found it deserted. It renmined for the negroes carefully spared Ilroni doing any of the fight ing, to be the tirst to enter the captured city. The great siege is at length ended. Rich mond has fallen. The losses in these con flicts which have continued almost without intermission for five days, are not known. They must be enormous. Part of Rich mond was in names when Weitzel entered it, and all the heavy guns and much valu able property fell into his hands. The Con federate retreat is west, towards Burkes ville. The Richmond and Burkesville railroad is used extensively. C: rant started all his army yesterday on a march north west across the Appomattox towards Burkesville, to intercept their retreat, if possible, but the Confederates have had so much time that they will probably succeed in getting off. From Monday's Age moral Grant has gradually closed his lines arr and Petersburg. The Confederates have abandoned their works defeLding the Southside railroad, and all those east and West of Petersburg. They still hold the inner line defending the city. The fighting has been eollthluons since Wednesday, and at half-past !bur ye , terday afternoon was still raging. The Fed eral expedition against the South : side railroad is commanded by Generals Meade and Grant in person. It is com posed of ITumphrey's Second corps, num bering twenty-eight thousand; Warren's Fifth corps, numbering twenty-three thous and, and Sheridan's cavalry, numbering nine thousand; twenty-five hundred being mounted, the others dismounted. The ex pedition is sixty thousand strong, and was ordered to start on Wednesday last. Two divisions of the Twenty-tinu•th corps, from the north bank of the James, crossed the river on Tuesday and were sent to Hatch er's run to occupy the Federal entrench ments. (to Tuesday night these troops held the works and the Second and Fifth corps lay in the rear of them prepared for the movement next morning. Hatcher's run lbws southeast from the Soul hside railroad. It is crossed by several common roads running southwest from Petersburg. Five miles from the South side railroad is the Bovdton plank road, running to Dinwiddie Court House, thir teen miles from Petersburg. This gradual ly separates from the Southside railroad, and at Num' iddie is eight miles from it. About a mile south of Hatcher's run the White Oak road diverges from the Bodyton road towards the railroad and rims far down into Southern Virginia. It does not at any point approach within live miles of the rail road. Along the Boydton and White Oak roots, the Confederates have a formidable line of works parallel with and defending the soutbside railroad. 1; rant's of ti ect was to capture these works. on Tno.day night his troops lay along Hatcher's run, southeast of the Boydtou road crossing. The Second corps was on the Vaughan road. The Fifth corps farther down, and the cavalry still farther down the stream. The line faced southwest and the next morning was to swing around, with the Second corps for a pivot, so as to Face northwest. Sheridan having the far thest to go, started at two o'clock on Wed nesday morning, made a long detour to the southward, and in the evening halted at Dinwiddie Court House, eight miles from the Southside railroad. The Fifth corps started at three in the morning; crossed Hatcher's run; marched southwest some distance and came to the Quaker road, which runt; northwest towards the South side railroad. The corps turned into this road and marched northwest, and at noon found the Confederates in three about a half mile from the Boydton road. The Second corps started at six in the morning; crossed the run On the Vaughan road, and turned northwest, marching towards the Boy dton road, along the southern bank of the run. The Second corps did no fighting. It en camped in line of battle on Wednesday night, one mile from the Boydton road. The Firth corps had a severe contest on the Quaker road and lost four hundred men. It succeeded in beating back the Confederate advance however ; crossed the Boydton road soul h of the intersection of White Oak road, and at night encamped in line of battle one mile from the White Oak road. The Federal line was thus six miles from the. Southside railroad, and one mile from the Confederate works along the Boydton and White Oak roads. These movements were put pre liminary, and everything was yet to be done. On Wednesday night rain fell in torrents, and the Confederates availed them selves of the storm to get their troops into position, and to feel the Federal lines in front of Petersburg, On Thursday the rain continued. The Federal troops made no attack. They lay in camp all day. The . Confederates biought up reinforcements, strengthened their works, and assumed the offensive. On Friday morning before daylight they con centrated a strong force in front of the Fifth corps on the Federal left, The Fifth corps .T.;;1i.f..t1t14 Was attacked, ancl,_after stbblitorn ftWgt was. driven-back a At noortas tjie Boydtatniiisl;-:', Giant sad**, ;bodies of tore "sigc4aiedil±3.l6 and Coateaktraj44 Were driven: back ;to WOES on - WhiteOak roack -On Fridaynight - they . , were 4 1 their work* and the Federal line wag again advaneedto the positi o n occupied by it on Thursday. The battles of FridaY were, bloody, and. nxinited_ the Confede rates still holding the works along the Boydton and White Oak roads. There had been no serious attack made against these works, and at no point were the Federal troops within five miles of the Southside railroad. The loss of the Filth corps in Friday's battle was about twelve hundred. On Satirday morning the Federal line was 'reinforced and renewed the attack.— Sheridan advanced from Dinwiddie Court House and Warren's Fifth corps was moved some distance westward so as to support the cavalry. The line of attack along the Quarker road was abandoned. The Federal troops advanced and succeeded in penetra ting between the Confederate main body and three brigades of infantry, that were some distance to the westward. The battle raged with great fury. The Second corps was not engaged and in the afternoon it was reported that Sheridan had captured the three bri gades with their trains. Still the Confeder ates held their works and could not be driven out of them. Yesterday the contest was again renewed. To assist the attack, all the Federal line in front of Petersburg and the Appomattox, and on the north side of the James, was or dered to advance. At noon it was reported that the troops in front of Petersburg had penetrated the Confederate lines and cap tured some of their works. Along the Boydton and White Oak roads, however, the Confederate line was still unbroken. Sheridan moved to the eastward again, and the entire Federal line—the cavalry, the Fifth and Second corps—turned to the east ward, and moved towards Petersburg. A short distance west of Petersburg, the Sixth corps succeeded in breaking through the Confederate line and reached the South side railroad. The troops at once began de stroying it. The Federal lines gradually closed around Petersburg, pushing the Con federates before them. At half-past four yesterday afternoon the line had moved up and extended from the Appomattox river, three miles west of Petersburg, around to the Appomattox, east of the city. The Con federates abandoned all their works east and west of the city, and held only the forts immediately in front of the town. General Grant states that he has captured tifty can non and twelve thousand prisoners. Full accounts have been received of the Federal advance against Mobile. The troops have been concentrated on Dauphine Island, at the mouth of Mobile bay. Large numbers of Federal soldiers have been sent from Dauphine Island to advance up both sides of the bay. on March '22, how ever, they were still at the lower end of the bay, with Confederate troops in front of them. Several days before, the Federal fleet shelled some batteries on the east side of the bay, but since then had clone nothing. On March 13th the Federal troops marching front Pensacola were forty miles east of Mobile. The v.llllllll marching from New Orleans has not been heard from. We have no news of Wilson's Federal cavalry raid from Eastport. RICHMOND TAKEN. NEWS BY TELEGRAPH sews from Gen. Weitzel at Richmond WASHINGTON, April 4-11.1,5 A. M.

STANTON, Seer'etary of War From Fortress Monroe—Further Par ticulars of the Fall of Richmond. FORTRESS MONROE, April 3.—lntelli gence of the capture of Petersburg and Richmond reached here to-day at lOo'clock by a dispatch from Gen. lieitzel, dated 5:,15 A..M. in Richmond wbich announced the ' the glorious ''' . (..went. The mail steamer Dictator, arrived from City Point at 4:30 this afternoon with additional particulars of this great struggle. Petersburg was occupied by our troops at 3 A. M., on Wednesday; the gunboats were all well up James river, and it was thought a fight had taken place with the rebel iron-clads. Large fires were seen up James river, towards Fort Darling and in vicinity or other rebel works, from which it was inferred that Lee was abandoning his works and retreating front his long established lines. Immense numbers of prisoners captured, estimated at 15,000 to 18,000, were continu ally coming in at City Points. It was estimated that there was 15,000 there Ibis morning. When the Dictator left, this A. M., a salute was being tired by all war vessels at City Point. The steamer Cossack also arrived here to-day, with a large nuns bar of Union pris oners, including (;en. lkleLaughlin and men of his brigade, captured by the rebels in the assault on Fort Steadman. Such was the haste of the rebels hurrying Union pri soners through Richmond on Sunday, that in many cases they were not even paroled. 500 out of 700 on board the Cossack never signed the parole. These prisoners say, that in coining through Richmond yester day (Sunday), they saw manifest indications of evacuation of the city. The hills were alive with people of all classes and conditions manifesting intense excitemen t. All priNimers in Libby hail been ordered to be exchanged by rebel authorities, and were hurried through the city towards Varina Landing in the greatest possible haste. Rejoicing at City Point, de WASHINGTON, April 4.—From the mail boat Dictator, which left City Point yester day at 10 a. m., the ,Stagy• obtained the fol lowing, among other items: She reports that the receipt of the news of the fall of Richmond was received at City Point with the greatest enthusiasm, and the vessels in port were immediately gaily decorated with flags, presenting a handsome appearance. At Fortress Mon roe a salute was fired, and the sailors and soldiers expressed their joy in various ways. On Sunday night, before evacuating Rich mond, the rebels blew• up their forts and rams on the James river, the explosion of which was terrific, resembling an earth quake, and being heard for nnles around. Our gunboats have moved up the James and are engaged in removing the obstruc tions. Gen. Weitzel upon entering Richmond, was directed by Gen. Grant to allow no one to leave the city or permit any one to enter who was not connected with the army, or had authority to do so. The rebels fired Petersburg in several places before evacuating the town, but the fire was speedily extinguished. - - - Over 3,000 prisoners have already been received at Cityyoint, and others are con stantly arriving. In fact there were so many prisoners there thata sufficientnum ber of troops could not be spared to guard them, and consequently detachments of sailors and marines were taken from gun boats and placed in charge of them. The entire number of prisoners captured by our troops up to yesterday morning was estimated at $13,000, by well informed officers. Our wounded are being sent into City Point as rapidly as possible, and hos pital boats are there taking them on board for shipment to Baltimore and Washington. The rebel deserters- in the bull-pen at City Point appeared to receive the news of the fall of Richmond with as- great enthusiasm as our own troops, and gave cheer afteroheer.- • • ' The Dictator brought up nearly 700 de serters, who desire to take the oath of allegi ance, Ml;E=2===Zl . , • -• D. ,. .49ganaraa.armmc - AiunriotkomirEPoi*Ac; 'lfiaerYftlie -r.-"ltcmy of the .

The struggle made by the enemy to retain these works, has been of a most desperate eharactei, and for- the suc cess obtained to.iity, we are indebted not only to strategy eierciaed by commanders, but to overwhelming numbers and bravery of the troops that did the work; Orders for an attack on the line east and south of Peters burg by the 6th and 9th corps were carried out punctually. At daylight, the, artillery having been hammering away the greater part of the night along the entire line held by the above corps, such a furious cannonade has been very seldom heard during the war, not even surpassed by that which was heard on the occasion of the mine explosion. The Ninth corps troops inaction were the Secsmd and Third divisions, and Col. Sam Hammon's brigade of the First division. The charge was made in front of Forts Hull and Rice, on the Jerusalem road, and were so far successful that by 8 a. m. we were in possession of three fortifications. Fort Mahone, being the most extensive and elaborate of these works, contained four teen guns, some of which were at once opened on the enemy by men belonging to infantry regiments. Just inside, about 100 yards from Fort Ma hone, was another work, to which the rebels retreated, and from which they threw a most destructive fire upon our men, causing them to retire from the northern end, when the rebels made a dash, thinking to recover it entirely; but the guns on the right wing as well as on the centre had been manned and shotted, and the assailants driven back. From this time till late in the afternoon the struggle continued, the enemy using every effort to recover Fort White. Our men were determined to retain possession of what they had fought so hard and paid so dearly for. About noon chances seemed that we should lose it, but soon ;tiler the Provisional Brigade, under Gen. Collis, and the Engineer Brigade, under lien. 13euhant, with Gen. Ilamlin's Brigade of the Sixth Corps came on ground, and by their timely arrival saved the gal lant men in the works from capture, and again caused the enemy to retire. The fire which rained on the ground around this tort was of most fearful character, and to see men advance on a run through the very thickest of it, many of them torn to pieces and lost sight of before they crossed half the distance, was a sight not soon to he for- gotten. At dark the position of the contestants was the same as during the day. General Wilcox, with a part of his division, made an attack in front of Fort McGilvey, near the Appomattox, and took part of the lino but was soon after forced to retire to hi;; former position owing to a lack of support. The loss of the Ninth corps will reach from 000 to 1,000 in killed, wounded and priso ners, among whom were General Potter, commanding the 2d division, who is badly -rounded in the groin, but not fatally, it is t hough( . Col. Getchell of the 31st Maine, severely ; Major Button, 31st Maine, severely ; Col. Gregg and Lieut. Col. Winslow, 179th New - York, wounded ; Major Morrow, 205th Penn., lost a leg ; Lieut. Alexander, 205th Penn., killed. The corps have taken 14 guns, about 200 prisoners, and two battle-flap, the latter by the 211th Penn. The 6th corps struck the enemy's line in front of Fort Welch near the celebrated lead works, and carried them with very slight loss. They at once pushed for the Southside road, which they reached about 9 o'clock, and in a very short time several miles of it were torn up and destroyed. They then moved on down toward Petersburg, driv ing the rebels before them, across the town, over and into their inner lines, close to the city. They took a large number of prison ers (about 2,000) and some twenty guns. No attack on the inner line has been made as yet, as the position is a strong one, and will either be defended to the last or evacu ated during the night. The Twenty-fourth corps, holding the lines north of Hatcher's rtm, and south of the Duncan road, connecting with the 6th corps on the right, and.the 2d on the left, advanced at daylight and took the works in their front, with slight loss. Over 1,000 prisoners were captured here. These troops were Poster's and Turner's, and di visions under Gen. Gibbons. They were supported by the colored diirision of the 25th corps, but the latter did ntit get into action. The 2nd corps which held the line from the Run a mile and a half east of the Boyd town road, to over a mile east of it, delayed advancing until Sheridan with the Rh corps got within supporting distance on the relic left, when the entire line moved 'mord carrying the works almost without opposition. The enemy was found to have fallen back from this part of the line owing to the 6th corps cutting them off, they hav ing reached the South Side road early in the forenoon and being busy tearing it up. This of course cut the rebel army in two, and the two divisions thus caught between the 6th and 2nd corps, at once stood across the South Side road toward the Appomattox, hoping to he able to find it and thus escape capture. But it appears they ran against Sheridan, and putting on a hold appearance made a show of fight. ews to this effect reaching headquarters, two divisions of the Second corps were at once sent to flank, and, if possible, capture the entire command. Our losses during the day cannot be given, but it is believed 2,000 will cover them, many valuable offi cers being among the number, whose names, however, are not obtainable to- j;pcial otiro. 44-.

The property of the Lancaster and Venango Mutual Petroleum Association consists of Ninety-One Acres of Land, in fee simple, situ ated on the eastern bank of Big Sandy Creek, and on either side of Stony Run which flows through the middle of it, in French Creek township. Venango county. It presents& large proportion of boring ground, amounting to at least sixty acres. Part of the land is covered with fine oak timber, well calculated for the manufacture of coal oil barrels, this alone is of great value in that locality where thou Sands of barrels are wanted daily to hold the I ich products of sur rounding wells. It is evident also that large deposits of bitu minous coal exist In the elevated portions of this tract; they are however undeveloped. Within one utile east and west coal mines are w, rked on an extensive scale. Recent experiments demonstr ,te that the " ilig Sandy " is not second to Oil Creek in oil wealth as to quantity, wh le the quality is far superior, and worth nearly twice the price of the illuminating oil upon Oil Creek; the Big Sandy producing the heavy lubricating oil. The excitement is now in that direction. Num bers of wells are now down and being bored all along the waters of the Big Sandy. Oil was struck % of a mile above this tract on the 7th of February, A. D., 1665. There is a fifty barrel producing well at the mouth of the Big Sandy, this is about a mile oft The land of this company lies due south of the property of the Sugar Creek Oil Company, in the same belt, about W . , miles; said Sugar Creek Company struck a 70 barrel well in the latter part of February, 1885, which sent the stock up front one to twenty-tour dollars (324.00) in a few days. It is the determination of this company to fully develop their whole territory. Subscribers to stock can feel satisfied that no eff rt will be spared on tile part of the officers and managers to bring out the oil, which must be within reach or faithful labor. We invite a careful ex tunination of our prospectus by all. We have every confidence In our oil prospects, and ev ery assurance that the stock of the company wit, soon advance in price. The managers of this association, while they do not wish to misrepresent, at the same time beg leave to bring the stern fact before the pub lic, that after all that is said about this, that and tile other tract of oil land and oil wells, in nine out of ten times there is no 01l there, out side of Venango county. Venango county is the oil county. Remember that! Examine the list of producing wells. We point to it with pride: Cherry Run, Sugar Creek, Cognette Well, Reed Well, Auburn Well, Big Sandy, Dalzell, Mc- Clintock, etc , etc., all in Venango county, in close proximity to the "Lancaster and Venan go Tract." There is oil wherever biturdinous coal exists, but not everywhere in sufficient quantities to pay for boring and pumping. The great reservoir of oil, or oil basin, hes in Venango county, under Oil Creek, Cherry Run, Sugar Creek, Big Sandy Creek, and the adjacent parts of the Allegheny river. There are now only 5',000 shares of the stock of this company offered for sale, the rest is all taken. —Office of the Company at No. 21 North Duke street, Lancaster city. AND. If.

In forming the above named company, great care has been t ;ken In the selection of proper ties, so as to Mier none but those well known to the public, and which have been tried and found ;o be the best yet developed. The sys tem of the organization will be on the mutual plan, the same as that of the PEOPLE'S EQUITABLE OIL COMPANY, which was so soon taken and now so eagerly sought after.— The working capital is to be $30,000, which will be a very handsome fund for commencing th development of the property, and it is the in tention of tne managers to push the work en ergetically, and with confidence of the great success of the undertaking. The subscription has been placed at the low figure of 50 cents per share, so as to enable all to have a chance tor investment in this profitable business, where so many fortunes have been made. The properties havin been taken up some t;me since, at low prices, makes C e investment doubly desirable, on account of cheapness, No. I—l- a tract of SO Acres in fee simple, of unsurpassed Oil Territory on East Sandy ('reek, adjoining the ADAMANTINE WELL, or rather the property on which this famous well is situated. It was struck about ten days ago, a"d is reported as flowing 100 barrels of heavy lubricating oil, each barrel of which is equal to 3 barrel- such as is obtained from Oil Creek. There is room for a large number of wells. This property has eighty rods of desira ble boring territory, frorrting, on the kdaman tine Lauds, with two good Coal Veins in the 131;13S. PITHOLE CREEK No. 2.—A lease for 14 years of Y.,ds of all the oil obtained on three leases, on Plthole Run, a hundred rods from the mouth, as it empties into Alleghany River. These are very finely located on the run, and fine selects ins. A well is in progress, and will be completed without expense to the Company.

The character of the above interests, situated as they are in the centre of what is known as the "Great Oil Basin," should certainly com mend themselves to the serious attention of those who contemplate investing in Oil Com panies and are unsurpa sed by any as a basis for an honorable and energetic petroleum or ganization, and with that energy which the management are determined to tutus into it, it certainly must prove a good investment.
