Punchinello's condensation of a recent
congressional debate is good. It Is ns io!
lows :
Tbcro was a debate upon a proposition to
abolish tbo mission to Rome.
Mr. Brooks said most of his constituents
were Roman Catholics. Therefore tliero
should bo a mission to Rone.
Mr. Dawes saiJ that Mr. Brooks used to
be a Know-nothing. Thereforo there sbouM
not bo a niisslou to Rome.
Mr. Cox said tbey used to burn witches
in Massachusetts. Therefore thers should
tie a mission to Rome.
Mr. Hour said they didn't. Tberclore
there should not be a mission to Rome.
Mr. Voorhces said they burnt a Roman
Catholic asylum in Boston. Therefore there
should be a mission to Rome.
Mr. Dawes aiJ they burnt a negro asy
lum in New York. Therefore there should
not be a mission to Rome.
Mr. Voorhees said Dawes was another.
Therefore there should bo u mission to
Rome.
Mr. Bingham said that Powell was a

Parker Oil Field. The East Brndy
Independent says: The Jennings, Finlay
and Brown well, on the Connelly Farm,
bus proved a good one. It started off
35 barrels, and will certainly increase its
production.
Tne Moorbead well, on the same Farm,
owned by Jennings, Brown and others, is
being tubed and presents splendid indica
tions. "
The Annie well, owned by the'samo par
ties, is reported good for 25 ( barrels, aud i8
also on the Connelly Farm.
The Continental well, owned by R. P.
Crawfor & Co., on the laud of D. 3. Alien ,
Is down and offers every indication of being
a good well. The third sand is thirty reel
thick. This well, which is 1.104 1'net deep,
was put down in tho incredibly short epace
of forty-two days, by Mr. J. M. Lambing.
This is very rapid work, aod proves the
excellent skill of the operator.
The Alpine well was torpedoed on Satur
day last and produced fcrly barrels of oil
in the first twelve hours.
Emlestox. Fithian's now well, on Pop
lar Bottom, is pumping at the rate of a
barrel an hour. The old well at the moutU
of Rilney'g run, has accumulated sand to
the depth of eighty (ect, and is to be torpe
doed and put in rucning order. The Yel
low Pine well will be completed In two
weeks, and gives excellent promise. The
new well above the bridge is nearly com
pleted. The new well on Middletown's run
is down 900 feet j progressing finely, Lavlnc
gone through seventy fuet of secoud sand,
with floe prospects.
Tho Fourth of July passed off epiictly at
thia place, yesterday. At the Calholio
Church much Bport was had in tho various
games. The base tall match between the
Stevenson Farm club and the Sloiy Farm
club was closely contested, the game being
won by the Story farm bojs. Much merri
ment was occasioned at the ludicrous en
deavors of the boys to climb the greased
pole. On the whole the day passed off
pleasantly and all appeared to enjoy tiicin
selveii. About thirty-three members of Petroleum
Lodge I. O. of O. P., beaded by the Col
unibia Cornet Bind, left town yesteraa to
attend tho Odd Fellows celebration ut Mead
ville. After tho celebration tho Columbia
Cornol Band serenaded Viee-Presideut Col
fax, at the Mcllenry HouRe, who uppearod
on the porch and addressed them, paying a
neat compliment to Item on their appear
ance und the excellent style of their plav
ing. It was a very pleasant liitlo episode.
The Venango Spectator says: The Poor

SugarcieeU township, coutalns about one
