Petroleum In India.
From Setter! received by bis family In
Nortljsmptoa, it appear! that Mr. S. B.
Lyman, ot Philadelphia, who went out to
I aula to superintend boring lor petroleum
in the Punjab and elsewhere, was on the
tn: of Aprilt a camp about thirty miles
Irom Raoul Picdee, a ' considerable town Of
mo ruBjao. lie Das discovered In (bat
region a supply of mineral pitch, wbiotn
th 'jiiU uiuall, will be euough to supply the
l'indce ga works for three or four years.
Ity the eud of that timo the railroad will
luve beta built to Piojeo, and tbe gas
woi!a can be supplied from below, Ifoo
more imiteriul la found near by. Mr.
I.yman uva not find, as yet, a very bril
Jimit proepcet for petroleum in that part ot
India. Eis oil well near Pindce yields five
or six Rallons'pcrday, and take six coolies,
,ai overseer aud a clerk to collect that small
quantity, In consequeuco of variousder
laya, ha' did not expect to finish his boring
in tbe Punjab beloro tbo hot weather set in
tbroweks ao. Ho then hoped to retire
to one Hi tl.o bill towns or to Assam, and
work up t;:t, les'nlli of bis field labor. lie
wus iu good health and apirita, aud did not

Blenklty well Is pumping 15 barrels; the
Chase well, 8 bbli. ; the Miller, Austin A

well, an old bole lately cleaned out U yield

on tbe point, is pumping 2 bbls. An old
well knowu as tbe Stock well bad been
cleaned out and was yielding a small quan
tity, but is now being reamed, and will
soon be tested again.
Six new wolls are either drilling on this
territory or the derricks erectiug preparato
ry to drilling. Egbert & Bleakly commenc
ed drilling just below the dam on Thursday
These parties have 40 acres of bill running
back from tbe Point which they intend to
develop as rapidly as possible, and before
many days we may see tbe hillside dotted
wilb new rigs. Paist, Long & McDonald
are putting up a rig on tbe roadside oppo
site tbe dam; B. II. llaynea has a well
almost completed a fow rods beyond tbe
railroad bridge! further up the road are the
Vincent, tbo P. II, Watson, and the Smith
4 M'Aniocn wells, all in course ot boring.
We understand thai Mr. Watson will suun
put four more wells down on bis territory.
A sliort distance further up tbe river are
three wells on tbe George P. Smith (arm.
Two of them, belonging to Mr. Smith, are
pumped by one engine, and yield 4 bbls.
The other is owned by Parker & Co., and is
doing 4 bbls.
-Oo tbe opposite side of tbe river is the
Winsor well, wbicb is not yet lioisbrd. Af
ter boring a few days a mud vein was en
countered, wbicb prevented further opera
tions without reaming the well out and
casing It. Tbey are doing this now, and
the well will probably be finished inside of
ten day.

known as tbe walnut tree well, waa torpe

The bottle of water taken from the Atlan.

II. Rice, tbe Prcsideut of tbe Bostou putty,
aud one-half its contents poured fniu tiie

elements of the Atluntio and Pacific.
Tbe party then formed a circlu on the
veranda of tbe Cliff House, a Califoruian
and a Bostouian alternating, and tbe bot
tle ot mingled water, as na emblem of

most .interesting ceremony followed. A
little daughter (two years of age) of Mr. K
u. Lit own, ot tan I'iancisco, was present,
and baving never been cbrislenod It was
suggested, on a moment's thought, that tbe
holy rite should be administered. A table
was brought out and covered with tbe ua
tioaal flag, and a large silver basin contain
ing water from both oceans; when amid
stillness disturbed obly by tne surging of
tbo tea, the parents stepped forward with
the little child In Its mother's firms, and
the Rev. Mr. Waterston of the Boston party,
with great beauty and solemnity, a(i minis
tered the rite of baptism. The entire audi'
ence Immediately hurt forth in singing the
Doxology, to tbe tune of "Old Hundred. "
