Parker's Laxiinu-Th Latest Strikm,
Tho Nortbwes'tem Independent of
Saturday, contained tbe following fresh and
interesting oil news: The Murray well on
land of Jobn Marshall, ' has been runic a
depth ol 1,027 fee: throii&h a tblrd sand
about thirty feet thick tin been cased,
tubed and pumped for soriio day, produc
ing come oil, promising to prove a paying
well. It Is owned by Richard Jennings,
John A. Brown, ,ol Armstrong county and
others.
The Mystic Is tho name of a new oil wclj
cn tbo MoGinnis farm, about one mile
above Erulemon, on the river. It Is owned
by James Bennot, of Etnlentun, and others,
and Si as been pumping for about ten days,
and is now yielding seven or eight barrels
per day.
Well No. 4, Fowler farm, on the river
owned by Brown, Seal, Sawyer and others,
has been sunk a depth of seven hundred
and eighty feet, through a third sand said
to be twenty-eight feet thick. It has been
pumping for about two weeks and is now
producing some oil.
' Lambing No. 2, on Land of Hartley &
Shannon, on river, owned by Lambing, J.
B. Flnlay and others. 1ms been funk a
depth of eight bundled and Beventy foot'
through a third sand twenty-six (eet thick.
It bas been pumping one week, and is now
producing oil, promises 'to prove a good
well. ,
Tbe oil wells In Parker's Landing region
generally, after a lew weeks pumping seem
to full to a considerable extent; but after be
being torpedoed and thoroughly cleaned out,
the f roduotion Is as good ai it ever was.
It wotild thus seem that the supply ot oil is
not yet being exhausted in this territory,
but rather tbe supply of mad Is increas
ing, occasioned, no doubt, by the numerous
holes which have been drilled.

The Meadville Republican caji": We
learn that oil has been struck on the Homes
Farm, tn Woudcock township, Crawford
county. In sand pumping t.vo or three
quarts of oil are brought up at each time
the pump is "rnnued." Gcsid oil operators
say that tbe indications are Invoratde lor n
large yield, and there is preat excitement
in the neighborhood In consequence. It
has for several years, .been the opiiflon of
experienced oil men that tbo Woodcock
valley contains valuable oil territory, and
this strike is regarded as a coutirmation of
their predictions.
