The excitement at West Hickory, yester diy, was not so great as for Several days previ on. Tbe McNalr well, owned by James McKair, Esq., lormecly of Pithole, was truek on Thursday last. On Monday it pimped at tbe rate of 309 barrel per day, mdu yesteraay, on account of a scarcity of aauaago, a very slow motion had to be kept up. and tbe well did oat yield over 100 bar rels. Quite a tows is building up at this point, nut irom appearances it will be of tbe mushroom order. Most of those solos Into businei there are from Pleasantville. Those woo have "aut their eye teeth" In following oil excitement, are settling at White Oaks fetation, on the line of the O. C. & A. E. K., about 2U miles from the Venture well. which will undoubtedly be the business point foeftbe Hickory oil Bald. The land about itie station Is owned by Messrs. Vander. Krlft and Formnn of Oil City, and Is under onarge or mr. J. G. Searles, who is well known to many of our c ilizens. "Joe" is up to bis ears iu business, leasing out town lota by tbe dozen every day. The above named gentlemen are about to lay a pipe line from tbe Station to Qonneot vnn an me large well in the viclulty. Petroleum Centre is represented in busi ness circles at White Oaks by Messrs. Schon- llin E wing, who. are running an exten sive grocery and feed store: A. Smawlev. who has a brsnoh livery stable, and Charlie osier, late W. U. telegraph operator, who n .n ojieuea out a Dral-olass news depot In the coal and lumber Irado, Messrs. Bailey & Faulkner nfPithole, have tbe uly establishment there, and are doing a smashing business. We are glad to learn of lb- Niiocesi of our old friend Capt. Bailey who is well deserving of it. ' The Centre has less representation at the wiiioraui) man any other nf the oil -ct tw vu, uom tne uct that wo htB touie- thing uf un oil excitement lit home, and tbose inbuslness heie aru satisfied to re main. We still claim to bnve tlio banner well ol the oil regions, which fllill contin ues to yield 300 barrels per day, wlillo the Ventura well at West Hickory, struck about the lame time, is only yielding 10 barrels daily. Mr. Baxter Trevor, agent tor tbe rale of "Ten Tears In Wail Street," a new and val uable book just published, Is now canvaaV ing the place for subscribers to the work. Mr. Trevor lost an arm while fighting in defense of bis country, and bus been forced to go into Ibis business in order Is secure a liveflliood, and wo bop our citizens will extend biin a liberal support. The book is well worth the subscription price. A little son of Jas. S. McCray met with a severe accident, yesterday, lie was rid ing a none en McCray hill, and accidental ly fell off, striking bis bead ou a stone and fracturing the skull. ' Oil. The Puiludelphia Commercial List has a correspondent at Franklin who writes as follows: "For nearly two years tbe price of crude oil has been relatively higher than refined, and thus preventing refiners from iiinuing meir wonts unless at a loss, it nas com pelled a false business, and nut a legitimate one, by driving manufacturers Into specula tions that tbey would not have engaged iu bad tbe price ol crude oil justified tbem in expecting a profit on tbeir legit!uiate busi ness ol refining oil instead of gumbliug in it. Tbe producers of crude oil, tbe same as all other producers do, ' will have to conform to tbe old-fashioned Idea ot supply and de- maud, and that alone will regulate prices. Gambling and excitement may abswer for a time, but it can ouly be of short duration; and bull! tbe deniaud for oil is equal to tbe supply, or even approximate to it, prices mutt go lower. There is no article ol con sumption now so cheap. as oil, and its very cheapness la a convincing proof that tbe supply already is far i n excess of the de- maud, Oil would be cheap ut eight dollars per barrel at tbe wells were it not so. But still It is not cheap enough yet either to enable refiners to run their works at a small profit or to export. Lower prices may be anticipated, and should crude oil decline to but $2 per barrel it would pay a large profit on tLo Investment if but a woll of ten bar rels dally tbao on any giber kind of busi ness. It Is not exprctid that oil will de. Oliue to $2 per barrel now, but I bavo seen the day wbeo it could bavo been purchased for forty cents per barrel, and less. No doubt tbe consumption is increasing annu ally in all parts of tbe world, and It is find. ing new outlets, but it should be remember ed tbe supply is also increasing more In pro portion than the demand, and that apecu. lation, gambling, excitement, fictitious sales and paper contracts are not bona fide con tracts, and that tbe sooner tbe oil business settles down, as it must eventually do, into legitimate trade, tbe better it would be tor all concerned, and more profitable besides to producers to Hie end. At tbe Mystie Park Rare on Monday, tbe contest between Falmer end Goldsmith Maid was exciting. The race was for i purse of $4 000. Lady Tborno and Moun tain Boy were withcrawn, leaving Palmer, Goldsmith Maid and tbe American Girl to contest for the money. Tbe two first heats were takeo by tbn Maid In 2:22 and 2:20 but pushed close in both beats by Palmer who took tbe 3d beat In the excellent time ol 2:21, tbe Girl just saving her dislaoce. Tbe fourth and last beat is closed by tbe reporter In this way; "But when tbey swung into tbe tiome-stretcb the Maid was fighting neck and neck with . Palmer. Home they came amid great excitement, both contesting well until near the score, when Palmer broke, and the Maid won tbe beat and face In 2:25. A man named Cornish was arrfsted re cently for drawing a razor on Henry Mar zellas and threatening to do him bodily Injury. Jury trial. Cornish was found guilty and sentenced by Justice Reyuolds to pay a fine of 'one dollar and costs of prose cution. . Mr. Toepb II.

Tbe Chinese of San Francisco who make their living at tbe wash-tub rioted the other day because some clothes were wash ed at figures below tbe standard price. Twenty-live were arrested, and a number of butcher knives and hatchets confisca ted. The Toronto Telegraph Is still harping on tho Fenian raid. It says: "England is responsible, yet the raids have cent her nothing. The Americans are responsible, yet the raids bavo cost them nothing- Canada is not responsible, yet tbe taids have cost her Four Millions." "Somebody must indemnify us." Wo can do only one thing by way of compensation, and that is to buy ibo Dominion. We will give $100,. 000,000 In Alabama claims. Here is a sensible Irishman's opinion of tbe meaulng of the late Fenian movement What does it mane? Well, I'll tell yees what It manes, jist. It manes that a good many min who fbrved as oQicers in the war don't want to git tbeir llvin by bard wur- ruck, and tbey want to git tbe tin cents out o' the pockets o'jistsicb hard wurrickin Irishmen as myself.

A clergyman Iu Northampton, Mass. last Sunday preached a sermon to tbe lo-i comotlve engineers. Special trains from New lork, Boston, Hartford and other places carried hundreds of the craft to bear this novel discourse. His text was taken from Chronicles 26: "Uzziah made engines in Jerusalem;'' from Isiab 4.28: "Tbeir wheels were like a whirlwind," and from Psalms: "Peace be upon (b)Is-rael." The clergyman is what is known as Tracktar- lon. Tbo pictures In tbe Rotunda of the Cap!, tol, bs tbey appeared a few years ago, are thus described: "How Washington looks like a top, and Cornwailis like a fool ; bow Ben. Franklin looks lileo an over-fed bill lock, and Louis Sixteenth ot Franco like i popinjay; how Mrs. Pocahontas is In basque and rouge, and Mrs. Smitb Isn't there at all; how Millard Filmore looks like a brick and Frank Pierce like a pile ot bricks; bow sbe silted young Kane smiles serenely in tbe snowiest marble, and tbe haughty bead of Pulaski rises with 'red battle.' sensual zest In every beautiful feature; How Kos ciusko, wan, stern, immortal, stands in ascetic severity by tbe side of bis Polish brother." Tbe other day, says tbe New Orleans Picaynne, a very pretty bine eyed coquet tish-looking creature made ber appearance at tee office of the Chief of J'olice and de manded an intervfew. "In what can oblige you, madamet" Inquired tbe polite official. "Are yoii tbe Chief, Bir?" "I have that honor." "Are you a married man?' Now this Is a question which modest bach eiorsnna it dimcult to reply to without blushing. Nevertheless, tbe officer bravely answered in the negative. "I am sorry for this,' continued tbe lady, "for I desire to consult you. on a delicate subject." Tbn Chief balanced himself, first on one foot and then on tbn other, looking furtively tbe while at his visitor, and finally Inquired "How delicate?" "Why sir, my child ho oeen stolen by Its degraded father, whose abuse of me has compelled me to seek other protection. Unless gou have been a mother you cannot understand my grief." J.
