Now. I don't wish to be egotistical, but I- take it for granted that all,men are created equal—and equally ignorant; and un til one sees a thing his knowledge, if he has any,.must be derived from in formation. ••Come with me, friend Alvord, and let's do this trip over again. My in tention is to reach Franklin to-night, so,I take the express train down the Allegheny, at Tidionto at 1 o'clock twenty-eight minutes, determined to male the most of my forty-two miles of ride to Franklin, which ,I shall reach'at live o'clock this afternoon. It is One of those lovely autumn days that you see but a few times in the year, when the sunlight lies in mel low saffron-purple sheen over the forests 'and valleys. The bustling lit tle town of Tidioute lies on the north bank of the Allegheny river ,twenty miles below -Warren, and thirty-six miles above Oil City, It is' all life and animation, and in - common with most of the "oil towns," there is a large class of people whose time, like that of those people Paul tells- of, is continually spent in bearing or tell ing something new. You know what a perfect mania for news there was at the 'time of the 'tvar : we were, all monomaniacs on the subject of news. It is somewhat so here now on the subject of oil • news; thia-may seetii surpriSing to after so many years of random speculations, of ex haustions of pockets and territory ; but remember, as the years go by, new territory, new belts, aro struck, and new men, or those who have got rich—or - poor, else enere, pushon the bold enterprises, and new excite ments, local to a great extent it is true, and prosperity and adversity, excitement_ and depression, chase each othef:over the country in never ending alternation. Tidionto is one of the oldest - oil fields, es well as one of the richest. Do yon observe.that high bill oppo site the town, covered with tanks, and derricks, and oil wells. That is called Economite Hill, because a so ciety called the " Eeonomites," owns it. - trite peculiar feature - of ; their or ganization is that they allos4-no mar rying nor giving in marriage in their camp. Now Ivhether that is economi cal or not, might be a question still open; and that it is biblical, and-eve ry way adapted to man's social, reli gious, moral and perpetual develop ment, is flatly - contradicted by a re fractory member now and then, who ' is-Arawn away by some daughter of the outside' idolatrous world. As one of the& remarked who had just aban doned the society, and taken to him self a very pretty "rib " : " I like: to see the women have their rights.".i Well, here comes the down train, and as I was saying something about the people being so crazy for news, you will better tinderatand why there is such a rush for the train—a crowd which gets off, nearly or empty ing the cars, another crowd which gets on, rushing, struggling through and over crowd No. 1, and another crowd which comes to see if any - of their friends are in the crowd that I goes or - the crowd that comes. Here we have the usual kissings (and that is one of, the pleasures of leaving town and i returning) of fond friends who don'tlnow that they shall see each other again till: to-morrow; : but you: bumble servant is --peculiarly situated, so as to avoid all-these pub lic attentions, of course,Mid takes seat on the side of th .car farth est from the sun, nearestlthe river, andos far -us 'he can ga t from the cumbersome body of that'mother of six dirty Irish children, so as to give thern - free trade with all the seats in their vicinity.

The names are sufficiently suggestive' of the natures of each, or the uses to which they are applied. They- are sometimes called the "light oil," and heavy, or grease oil. The former be ing used for lights—being, when re fined, nothing else , than 'ordinary " kekosene oil," and the, latter_b,eing used for lubricating thachinery in factories , and mills, on car wheels, nichifiery, etc., etc. And - when I say that they arc "distinct kinds," I do not mean to say that they have noTroperties in - common, -but that the combination of gasses, carbonic arurcombnstible Matter, is..so differ ent as to constitute an article of dif ferent consistency, and commercial : - use - and value.

The belt - of oil above mentioned lies across the counties (or across some part of each of Warren, Crawford, Venango, Clarion, Butler and Arm strong, and embracing the cities and kowns of Tidioute, Titusville, Pithole, Petroleum Center, Itore4eville, Oil City, Franklin aid Parker's Land ing. The lubricating oil is found in the " first sand," and, generally the- " light Oil" in thethird, though there are exceptions; but the two kinds are not found in the same district,. and while one seldom need go beyond four or five hundred feet for the for mer, the latter is often found at a depth of twelve'hundred feet. The days of fabulous and wonder ful flows of oil, such as was . seep at the old Pithole wells, "United States" and " Grant well," are over. "Those wells each produced more dtan a thousand barrels per day, and .that 'I without, other exertions than sating -the-oil, for they, were "flawing —which is a. term _applied to those wells where there is 'such a pressure -- of gas underneath, as to crept the oil sometimes with a force perfectly wen _ derftil. • The deposit of oil is made in a porous rock called " sand rock," ithich is a rock stratum, seeming to be conglomerate of silicions pebbles, and sand-, varying , in size from the head of a pin to a thiekery..nut, And all colors from white to black. • The cost of putting down a well. varies, with locality, from one thous and to tl.nee thousand dobars.

I have known' twenty-five hundred dollars to be distrained fiir - at ono time: - • The amount of lubricating oil pro duced during the month of August, was about six thousand barrels. The average datly'production of oils (lu ring August is nearly tiftben thous and barrels, and ,when it is, remem bered that there are a, trifle over three thousand wellsitt the district, itmay be seen that this ai,erage production per well is lss than jive barrels per day; while the multitude mho have buried their (thousands, a - thousand feet down it:lla " dry hole," as they are called, can Attest that many a well ',is sunken without finding oil , enough to grease. the engine that _does the drilling. But this is the dark side of the picture. Let us turn it round :- if won't cost us any more to look at the -bright side. The soil thi-oughotit' the oil regions cold, thin, and poor for farming purposes, and when some poor old "buckwheat," as the natives are called, found his farm underlaid with oil, wasn't it enough' to make him half mad" You have .heard• of Coal,Oil Johnny, who is famous the world over as the ";prodigal son'' of the oil regions, who might now be worth his, millions, but he spent his sustenance in riotous living,, an as I the Irishman said, so nught'•they have said of him : " We ought to kill the ,prodigal; bedad ! the calf - has re turned !" A gentleman who was inti mately connected with him at the time -of his prosperity, said to- me, "While Johnny was spending' from five hundred to two thousand :dollars per day; I and my wife were enjoy ing comfortable quarters in the saute. city (Phila.) at twenty-five dollars. Johnny's income was at that time over a thousand dollars a day, and mine - eight hundred. Poor Johnny : - A now driving team in Oil City•-1 think-'-and his former "private sec retary' sometime since died 'in jail. Sic transit gloria.ninndit" "Is that the ' bright side' of the picture'?" you ask. Well, yes, in one sense—brrght, like the flash of .the meteor, that is only remembered be &use of the gloom which follows it. But we will defer our talk alma the country ," np.the creek," as it is call ed up Oil' Creek from Oil City, until wefgo tip to Titrurville, • for here we are at Oil City now, and here we get of!, after the Irish . . woman and her six chiklien and fourteen -bundles, and, take the A. &•G.

Said he, with a groan, "That's the text I have been thinking of for an hour" —and we roz:e. The undeveloped creatures heretofore mentioned, from that moment began to realize that they were victims of misplaced con, tidence, and, before daylight dawned, four hundred and seven thousand of them had paid with their lives the penalty of their ignorance and auda city. I - think- that is the number. And that's why we won't stay in Oil City to-night, but go on down to Franklin, thecounty...seat of Yerian go county. Oil City has inall about twelve thoesend inhtibitantki, and covers the rising ground on both sides of the river, as well as the "flats" at the confluence •of Oil Creek. D6rricks, smoke-stacks - and oil.-tanks sit round promiscuously. in the dooryards; and the smell of well (*as' which is nol disagreeable to in., is ru all the atmosphere. At differ ent points in the city this gas is con ducted in pipes to' be burned in front of hotels, depots, etc., giving the city at night, an Appearance of strange; weird splendor.

I,sp the smooth, grassy Slope, away toward 'the hill top, you sea the. grand derricks Ipoming up against the Sky, and•some of the wells here are pumping one, two and three, hun dred barrels per dim. Far across the river and Over the forest-covered hills beyond, is the new "oil field of Reno," struck in the spring, with a tremendous rush of gas, and a few floWing wells. Hero the estate of 'Mr. Culver, the broken banker of Franklin, is situated; and in connec tion with this we must not forget to observe the fact that General Burn •side was out here and' built a rail road, and that the -railroad didn't pay (R. R. to Pithble), and that Cul ver went down under the wreck of hundreds of thousamls, and rinaof Says he is.now-np again. • But while we are gossiping about? Deno, we arrive at Franklin. This is one of those old towns that the oldest inhabitant has never known to look anydifferent from what, it looks now. It is the only city- in the World that is so "fogey ' in its notions that _even an . oil excitement in its- very midst, can't change it. It is like,the laws of the Medes and Persians— never changes.

The tableau *as a striking one. Nearly a score of men of lawless lives and brutal passions were gathered around' a frail, young man, whose. face revealed the .firru resolves of a soul sustained by the Iconsciousness of right and trust in a higher power. The scene was in an underground room in tlm very heart of 'this great city, and a reckless ,band made it their resort. Bands that• are sworn to the "mast inviolate secrecy -that havelleirhailing signs, and grips, and pass-words,as much as any lodge ordained for purer purposes, exist in every great city.- - Elt was into one- of these- Mania erts had penetratfal.

His - death would be that of a martyr in a holy cause, and although the angels might not prevent the sudden severing of - the• golden cord, they could place up on the spirit brow the crown of ever lastinn immortality. But the last taunt sealed his doom. In an instant a half-dozen bullets were buried in his flesh, and he . snuk down in. a pool of his own blood. He had given his-life to save 'his sis ter from a dishonorable marriage and and existence, of misery. In the life-ofa, great city changes Are frequent and rapid: To get the corpse away and hide it from alLoyes was work with which the -outcasts of society were fam_ilig. More than once before the unZetround wall of that room had rung with the 'report of pistols and death groans: By ways known only. to the initiated, they reach the streets, carrying the dead•man in their arms as they go. -The-river is not very far distant— there is always a boat - at their corn-. mead—the muddy water will hide all, evidence of their crime, or if the :corpse is found it will be np unusual• 'thing, and cannot be traced to them.

"Take him. hiame.

They:soon reached the river—plat' ed the corpse in a boat and then -shoved off, having easilysatisfied the Watchman on the wharf asthey had already done thepoliceman, neither of whom bad any rdegire to attack so hirer() a party of roughs. It , was . : . work that hb did not pay. Ont they pulled into the stream. The lights ,were- shining :from the windows of the unsleeping city— the moon shed's silker lustre around; but - the water was black dae,rieath them. In the -middle of -the strewn' they slid the corpse overboard, andipulled. array rapidly. But there was anotir er boat, containing a few" - -men, at a ) short distance. They sae; that some thing had Wen consigned to the depths, and Watched for, it to rise again: - By theirside it did so. . 1 "My God! it is a man,:-' cried one. "Yes; and - a murdered Om.

Any sang man will look to his own safety. It is only a fool that 'madly rushes into danger." - A rapid consultation decided them to follow at a distance and find some o!ue, if posaible, to the perpetrators of the foul, deed. , But the boat was strongly manned and soon shot out of sight, and when the pursuers landed, the pnraued were already lost amid the mitt, of 'the great city. , • And another change followed very swiftly.
