From Ibe report of tbe Petroleum Prodnc. r' Association for the month of April, 1870, we learn tbe following facts: Nutr ler o! tmrro's of oil on band at tbe wells at thec'oeeol the month, 98,203; Number of barn-la delivered from wells during the mnulb, 390,003;' Aggregate, 488,296; De duct siimlier of barrels of oil on band at the close of last month, 119,290; Balance show ing the production for tbe month, 263,828; Areroire rerdiy for tbo month containing 30 diy 12,2Pt; Number of wells producing duiir.g month, 2,231; Average daily pro duction per well during the month, 6.5; Nnml'T of wells being drilled, 419; Num ber (if tiw wells commenced during tbe month, 171; Number of wells completed during the ruouib, 138; Number of abandoned wells r?i'.iru(-d during tbe month; 13. The report of the producer's places the production about 700 barrels less per day than tiie Herald's roport fur tbe same fiou! b. Tbe cr.-ui.ionies at the Dedication of tbe Good Templars.

Other re marks i if an interesting character were insole. Tbe choir cxbouted some very floe places of music during tho exercises.

The Fast Brady Independent says: A visit to this locality on Thursday morn Ing last, gave us n Hill bolter Idea ol the improvement! going forward. Derrlckiare going tip on a number of leases, houses, stores and boarding houses aro being built. Business is lively, nnd tbere is good pros pect tor an active, "oil campaign" on Arm strong's Kuu this (ii miner, The well is doing about as usual, but It is very evident that her full capacity is not known; nor will II be until the rope and tools are taken out. The derrick and en gine house for that purpose are nearly com pleted, and early next week the attempt will be made. Those competent to form an opinion in regard to Ibis well, do not hesitate In saying that, when tubed, the yield will not be less than 600 barrels per day. Oil Sexkkhs on the To.vawakda Swamp Come to Grief. Our persistent oil seeking friends in the Tonawaoda swamp have come to grief before tbey came to oil. They re commenced operations oo or about the 1st f April last and bad punctured the bow els of the earth'' to the depth ol about 800 feet, when their drill got fast. They sent to Tiluiville.i Pa., f,jr gropel irons, and with these succeeded in raising the drill 200 feet wbeu the craueW became in some wav entangled, and tbere remain to the present lime, defying every effort to extricate them. Mrs. Collins, the owner of the lands, and the furnisher of the means for the oil search tone far, is, we are informed, a little dis couraged, but will not decide to abandon the enterprise until consultation .with her partner, Eigbmy, who is now absent. So says the N. Y. Bitavlan. TlIK Vl I.TlKE Well. - We were informed by a reliable party wuo visited Ibe Vulture wen, on West Hickorv. veslerdav. that it Is pumping 175 barrels ner dv. Unwards in uuu peopie vtsiteu luu well yesterday . Oil Uty Times. The Times is in error in regard' to the name of the well. It is known as the 'Venture well," and Is doing over 300 barrels per day. From one o'clock lust nlgbt until 6 o'clock tbfs morning she meas ured by actual guage at the rate ol 316 barrels in 21 lours. A singular phenomena in connection with the late fire oo the Egbert farm, is that an hour before and nearly an hour after the oil tank bad been struck by lightning, there bad been but little rain and no thunder or lightning. Tbe bolt wbieb struck tbo tank was seen by many and appeared to com pletely encircle it with flame, being accom panied with a quick but not loud report of thunder. A son or the Emerald Isle, wbo bad charge of tbe tank and bad lelt it but a moment before, and wbo was stunned by tbe shock, after coming to, remarked: "Be jabbers I didn't know vot tbo divil stbruck mo til I saw tbe sblabs a flyin' evry way." Ttere was a large crowd in attendance at Dr. Thayer's new Circus, 1 st eveniog. Tbe performance is first-class in every re spect. Tbe Dr.. has certainly succeeded in ' getting logelber tbe unest combination of talent that has ever exhibited under can vass In tbe oil region. As this even ing is positively the last performance of Ibe great company in Ibis place, we bespeak lor them a crowded bouse. On Monday after noon and evening tbe new Circus will per form at Rouseville. We inadvertently omillod to mention, iu our issue of yesterday, that J. H. Christie baa bis Soda Fountain in lull blast. A glass of Soda Irom bis fountain these warm days is truly relreshlng. We hear it rumored that anotbar large "ell bas been stttick on tbe Scotf. Inrm. West Hickory, which is said to be yielding 100 bairels per day. West Hickory is look ing up. Tbe Ueuo Company offer a reward of five hundred dollars lor tbo detection, arrest and conviotioD of Ibe scoundrel wbo set Are to tbe company's fences on Wednesday night, 4th inst. An alarm of Ore tbls forenoon was occa sloncd by tbe burning ol small building in tbe rear of tbe New York Meat Market, which was used as a smoke bouse. Damage small. Tbe wood la several counties iu north ern New York have been on lire forsoveral days past. The conflagration extend over a hundred miles of territory, and tbe loss il already estimated at $5,000,000. Some fashionable ladies in Hartford hav ing applied to a surgeon, to repair their feet distorted by wearing the hlgbheoled shoes' of tbe period, the Dolroll Tribune advises them to g to some wood-furner aod have their heads repaired. - -.

Out of it bare como all pure moralities, Forth from it have snriinii nil sweet chari ties. It has been the mollvo power of re generation and reformation lo millions of men. It has comforted the bumble, consol ed tbe mourning, abstained tho suffering, and given trust and triumph to the dying. Tbe wise old man has (alien asleep with II folded to his breast. Tbe simple coltagor has used it for his dying pillow, and even the innocent chil l has breathed his last happy smile with his flngcis between its promised-freighted leaves. Mii.iti.a Service.-). It may be of interest to many of our readers (o learn that, previ ous to adjournment, the Legislative passed an set relating lo the militia organization of tbe Slate and militia tax. Tbe bill pro vides as follows: . "Each and every person not now, or who shall not hereafter - becomo a meinour ol some mllitlury organization, shall pay to tho collector of tixes in the city, eeunty, borough or township In wbicb lie shiill re side, tbe sum ol lifty cents annually, the payment of which sum slm'l exmipt him Irom liability to perform railitai y service except under orders to prevent ur rej el in vasion, or to suppress iiisiirrectinn, lunnilt or riot: tbe proceeds lo le devoted to fir laininu volunteer military iirniiiiizaliuii and lu any county i:i which II .ere tlmil lr volunteer military uraiuiiz itions the tin ny received into the lii'.n!'

Il is reported that ttio 1'aribi.iu demi monde are u'jont to inaugurate a change in their costumes. Ttey will adopt a most rigid style of dress high necks, no lacn or diamonds, and no other ornaments than flower 8. They siy they roust dieting. iili themselves in some way Irom te.preiable women, and this revolution is their only n sort. Another case of insanity attended wilb bloodshed occurred recently in California. A woman saw another woman in compiny wilb ber husband, and she knifed" thu latter to deatb. Tbe hushand and wife bad not lived together for some time. It was another McFarlaod-Rlclardson cuse, with tbo parts interchanged, the husband hav ing left tbe wife, and tbe wife killing the husband. Turn about is fair play, in Vrs. Turner's opinion. that beini; the killing Cnlifornian lady's name. An intelligent, sympathising, and chivalrous j iry will, un questionably, acquit Lor with all the honors. A Chinese Indy of rank in tn Fr.vr.c'sco walks attended by threu maids of honor bearing lighted sticks of punk, highly per fumed. "Her face is paiuted wilb a reck less disregard of expense, and ber buir is saturated wilb oil. KuniiiDir thro.iirli tie knot at Ibe bacK of her bead Is t.u ivory dumbbell. On her bead arecefullv wav ing in the wind is a flower, which, from the fvrtil'zirg euvcls oil iseuppord lo bnve, is judged to be indigenous. Her short. highly colored silk dre.u is beautifully em broidered, and her feet are encased la the customary canoe shaped sandals." Some vt-ry burglarious lightning raided on Middle Had lam, Conn., recently. It entered tlje key-bole of Currier & Until' store, brolfe a bottle of wine In honor of fairy scat, set fire lo o I undle of newspa pers, dashed inl.i a desk through the key hole and burned muro papers, nnd lluully down cellar ntd touched a bluze to somo carrlnce teats. It avoided a dozen persons and o ly a fuwtiods c!l' were ono hundred kegs of powder. There iz tibthiu in a m.m tlit a woman admires more than his rejd iynusi nnd n'.iii. ty to smash onolhnr fellow, and it is jiat o,i with a hen. Wbati a rooster giu licked, the hens all march ir wlln the oinor tooi-ter If he ain't half so bi an l baiidsoce. Josh Billings. A dutiful young girl of seventeen, in Boone county, Mo., gently attracted her mother's attention by hitting ber under lb0 ear with a paving stone and fracturing her skull. Aunt Susan says: "Suppose all the men were In one country, and nil the women in another, with a big river between them Good gracious! what lots ot poor women would be drowned 1" Tbey tell a ridiculous story of a mlBhap to a fat man at the burning ol bis bouse at Sprlngfie'd, Mass.
