Tbe Jamra Devlin well, on the Da'zeli farm, was tubed thia forenoon and commenced pumping. This well was ut down through the large casing, and ol course U iloitiz mora now than it will after tbe-oead is pumped off. A large number of our opera'ors were on the grouud this after noon and give It as their opinion that lie well Is yielding at the rate of 200 barrels v per day. It is safe to say it will be a good well. The well ij-Su'9 feet deep, and is wuel by Mr. JamDevllB. The Report of the Secretary, of the Pe. iroieum, rrocmcers' Association lor the mouth of January is out. By it we learn that tbjtouwber of barrels of oil on band at the wells at the close of the month was 109.494; Number of barrels of oil delivered from the wells during the month, 3(0.933; Aggregate, 470,427; Deduct number of bar re's of oil on baud at the. close of fast month, 1 20, 5(H); Balance showing the pro duction fdr the- montb, 349,918; Average per day for the month containing 31 days, 11,287.. 6; Number of wells producing dur ing the month, 1.882; Average daily pro duction per wei during the month, 5.9; Number of wells being drilled, 442; Num. lisr of new wells commenced during the ruoutb, 144; Number of wells completed during the month, 129; Number of wee abandoned during the month, 46; Number V of auittiioned wells resumed during the month, 12. In the remarks accompanying the Report for December, it was stated that eritira accuracy could not be claimed for it, The Jaouary Ileport is obTured with the same' reservation, though it is known to be more nearly correct than that lor December. The December report gave 1,733 ss the total number ol producing wells. a making up (be pre lout statement it was found that 47 wells then producing were not reported, making f he acual increase in the nurubei of wIlii (.roduoing iu January over Decem ber 52 instead of D, as the tables show. Tb" 47 wells were yielding a. total of 325 bbls. per d iv, wbioh, added to the total, amount theu reported, makes 11,454 bbls. as the aoiual daily product fur December. With this cou'ection made, the daily producti on of J mil try shows a falling off of 1C0 Mils.; and thia decrease bus been gH-er.il through out ilie region, eropt at Parker's Landing, where ibe production bas increased 392 Obis, per day. The work on tbu tun "el through which He Jamestown and Franklin lUiiro.id is to ru'i,tt nil City, is being pushed rapidly ahead and will soon be completed. We hear it rumored that 111 is road is te he pml . ed through to lliis place at once, and that its terminus will b on the Egtmt Farm. A new well was struck on the Dempsey farm, ueur Kane City, en Saturday. It is owned by Chus. Barrett and others, and is doiug about 18 barrels daily. The Jacob Shirk well, on Colt.ige II II', O'l City, is Joivn and yielding six barrels pei dny. The weatuor is disuuiedly uaplctsiat U Could a fashionable call be better describ ed than in the following four linn on the subject: ' "I heard It 1" Who told yon ?'' 'Her friend. "(?)

"Don't atay, love!" 'I can't I" ,"I'ai ft rlorn!'" - "Farewell, dear!'' "Good bye, tweet!" 'I'm glad she's gone!" A Fails county, Texa-, paper says the family of General Sam. Houston is ver.. poor. It retuaiks: "Ills youngest child is we suppose, about ten years of age.

Only a word of encouragement a single word! It gives, to the drooping spirit new lile, snd tbe steps piess on to victory. Tbe Paxton farm, on West Pitbule Creek, is attracting some attention flora oil opera tors at present. There is a nil in tier of wells on this farm which have beeu pumping small quantities of oil fur several years. Since the striking of tbe well on the Lilliv farm, mention of which we nisdu ou Satur day, a number of leases have been taken up on the I'axton fnrui.and wells are to he put down at once. This territory is ueurly in a direct line witb the Red Hot oil belt and prominent oil men are of the opinion that by sinking wells trf what is known as the sixtb sand-ruck as good wells will be struck as have bceu at Shambnrg and Pleasunt ville. '. . A melancholy suicide occurred near Water Valley, Mississippi, on Satuiday. G. B. Mullius, a well known citizen, alter having spent the night with some neighbors, start ed home, but soon returned and biyiogdowo in tbe yard shot himself through the head witn a pistol. Temporary insanity is as signed as tbe cause of the act. The oil excitement on Calaboose Run still continues. A large nui ber of leases have been taken up and wells are leing put down. .Wo shall expect to bear good re. ports from that vioinity in the cource of a month or six weeks by which time many of the wells will be completed.
