A correspondent of the. Ilarrlsbnrg Topic ays'. "rarkorsbug oil district, comprising an area of fifty miles In the vicinity of the town, contains, now In operation, from six ty to SPVflnty-flvo oil producing wells, which aro paying a a legitimate InveBtment at tho present time. Tho fever and wild apectr latlon of tho past lma given way to the steady and prodtoblo trade of tho present. It may bo comforting to our Pennsylvania friends who invested In companies Is this district and. sold out at a song, to know that many of tho old companies hnvo been bought out, and are now being mn by prirtto parties at good profits. An tcstaneo of this, kind Is now in our 'mind. The Anderson wells, two In number, wero sold by order of a receiver for the companies to tho highest bidders, about elghteeo months since, for the sum of lour thousand two hundred dollars. Since that time the par-, ties, two brothers, have paid for the wells out ot the oil produced, and had net gain of thirty-five hundred dollars in addition This shows the advantages of individual management over the oftentimes swindling working of stock companies. Dr. Marbeeoy, of Washington, D. C, in August last sunk a shaft at an expense or 10,000, and since that tlmo has netted $100,000 -having struck a flowing well of too barrels, which bas been constantly dis charging since that time. Tteee are few of the successful operators. . 1 bave omitted to state that nearly, if not fully ono thous and wells have been wink In this district during the Brst excitement to this time, the average striking of oil being about one In eighteen or twenty times. The parties now operating are the old parties who have lived here during the ex citement. No new parties are In the field. The old ones are making all developments, and there Is now produced at this time more oil in this district than at aoy time since the commencement ot the develop ments. The oil well are usually put down 1,000 to 1,500 feet; from 400 to COO feet the heavy oil Is pumped. When this Is ex hausted, boring operations are continued until the lighter fluid oil Is struck at the usual distance of 1,000 to 1,200 feet This flows up oaturall until the supply Is ex hausted, being forced up by gas. The Laurel Fork and Sand mil Railroad con necting with the Baltimore and Ohio Rail road, was built for tho accommodation of the oil trade a distance of twenty miles, into the very heart of the producing coun try. The price of the lubricating oil, first quality, at the wells, in bulk is $10 per barrel. The crude, light or burning fluid oil Is worth $4 to $5 per bawl. At Par- kersburj large quantities of this oil Is rec tified, and then shipped direct to the market. The Rev. Father Dunn, pastor of the Catholic Society of Ibis place, is now en gaged In the very laudable work of build ing a school bouse, the basement of the church, wbere the school baa heretofore been bold, being too small for the number of scholars in attendance, and so damp that it bad become very nobsaltby. The new school bouse Is to he two stories high, and large and commodious In every respoct. It Is the intention of Father Dunn to establish a reading room in the second story, wbere a select library will be kept, In addition to the latest newspapers and periodicals, there by supplying a want that baa long been felt, and wbere the youag men ot Ibe place can pass their evenings in a manner both pleas ant and benefioial. Such enterprises are worthy of support, and we trust the public independent ef their religious creed, will extend Father Dunn liberal aid to enable blm to carry forward tba work to com plot Ion. The Morehead well, on Shaffer Run. near Oil City, bas Increased its production to 25 uiarrels dally. When struck its yield was only 15 barrola. , ' The Lady Corintba well, Jan. S. McCray larm, la down about SOU feet, and will be completed In the course of two weeks. TblB wall bas been named in honor of daughter of Mr. McCray. The Indications are good. We are pleaued to notice the return to town of our old Wend, Mr. J as. A. Wbarry While on a visit to bis home in West Vir ginla, Mr. W. was taken seriously ill, and was confined to bis bed for several weeks, but has nearly recovered. New Wkll.
