I von these points Idansmarkrrwere exceedingly Interesting and Impressive. r. Mr. Logan spoke In terms of stiong commen dation of the Freedmen's Relief Associations, and said, as we said some weeks ago In our own remarks, that there Is no conflict or antagonism between those Associations, and teat, and such as that, which he represents—that there Is plenty of work, and appropriate work,-for both. • A collection was taken up at the elate, but we did nut learn what amount was realized.

Petitions, praying the Governor to commission officers to raise the regiment have been circulated and numerously signed; but as His Excellency has no authority to comply with the request, the Petitions will be forwarded to the Wei Department, and he will exert himself to obtain such authority.

Since the pleasant and healthful exercise of skating has become the popular source of amuse ment with a great many of our young people, a few useful hints to the skaters, talon from Miro Journal of limit? ,may not be out ofseaaon 1. Avoid skates which are strapped on the feet, as they prevens . stimulation, and the feet be, 'come frozen before:Ale skater la aware of It, be. cause the tight strapping benumbs the foot and deprives it of feeling. young lady of Boston bast btr toot to this way.; another !In New York lost her 111 k by attempting to thaW her feet In warm water. after taking , off her 'skates. The safest kind are those Which receive the fore part of the foot In a kind of toe, and stout leather around the heel, buckling In fkontlof the ankle only, thus keeping the heel In place without splices or screws, and siding greatly in support ing the ankle. • 3. It is net the object Wrench to' skate fast as . to skate gracefully; and that Is sooner and more easlly - leamed by skating with deliberation, while it prevents overheating aid diminishes : the chances of taking cold by cooling off too soon. 3. If the wind In blowing, a veil should ho worn over the face, at least of ladles and chil dren; otherwise fatal Inflame:lon of the Maga, or pneumonia, may take place. 4. Do net sit down to rest a single minute, or Mend still, If then Is any wind. nor stop a ma 'meat after.the skates are taken off, but walk shout, so as to restore the circulation in the feet and toes, and to prevent being chilled. 5. It Is better to walk home than ride; the latter is ahnost certain togive a cold. "6. Never carry anything In the mouth while skating, nor any hard substance In the hand, nor throw anything on the ice; none but a careless, reckless Ignoramus would thus endanger a fel low skater. 7. If the thermometer Is below thirty, and the wind la blowing, no lady or child should be skating. 8. Always keen vonr eyes about you, looking ahead and toward, and not on the Ice, that you may not run against some lady or child. 0. It would be a safe rule for no child or lady to be on skates longer than an hour at a time. 111 The grace, exercise ' and healthfulness of skating on the lee can be had without any of its dangers, by the use of skat 6 with rollers at tached on a common floor; better if covered with oil cloth. A New and Promising Enterprise. In another column will be found the prospec tus of the "N'ational Refining and Storing Com pany of Pittsburgh," which Is well worthy the attention of those having capital to Invest. The Company propose to organize with a capital of 857,10,0:10, In shares of ten dollars each, for the purpose of purchasing crude oil at the wells, transporting n to this market, and refining and selling the same. The - project la so fully set fbrth in the prospectus, that but little remains to be said. Enough stock bas already been taken to place the Company upon a sure working basis, and a tempoittry or ganzation has bearcffecttd. In this connection we may allude to the character of the men who have beep chosen. as officers and directors—man who are well known for business' tact and energy; and whose judgment, prudence and foresight are a' sufficient guarantee that the affalra of the com pany will be well managed; and the interests of the stockholdens'Properly 'guarded.

A. few dart ago the company commenced boring for ojl, and on Wednesday evening at a depth of thirty-three feet, they most unmistakably "struck oil" of very. fine quality. The mandrill used in the process of boring; on being drawn up, was found - to be coated, to the thickness of nearly half an. inch, with oil which, on being tested, was found to. be most admirably adapted for brieming purposes. The company are highly elated at, their success, and boring will be con tinned with the greate st energy. That oil has begin 'Sound, and. that, too, of most excellent guShiy, tbercr,can . tie no 'doubt, from the sped-- mein' which have been shown 'in the city by re; amiable parties. • The question alone remains to be solved whether it * willte procured in suffi cient quantities to reimburse :the company' for outlay. The announcement that "oil had been strock" in the immediate vicinity of. Chicago had already — eroded 'consid4rable excitement among the business men of the city, large -Mon bars of whom have visited the well. •'Twk-the Stara Out of lOW, Yesterday, a begs number of persons visited the new gunboat "Manayunk," now lying at the "Point," and among them trestle Very nice, "starchy-looking," young man, who carried an "exquisite" cane and a ponderous chain.

He was hauled out "soppier' wet, "and looking so "cheap" that, to judge from appearances, he would have sold out fora very email piece of pos tal currency. He has.howeverreeson to congrat ulatchimself that the consequences were not MOM Serious, so the water-at that place Is very deep, and bad he went under, he would have. been a "gone sucker."
