We copy the following words of condo
lence from the Oil City Register. It will
be seen that Brn. Johns thoroughly under
stands the. position end takes ground In ac
coidauce: The Petroleum Centre R"C0rd in a very
able manner defend that place aiiai-iet the
attneke of a few of the sensational journals
of the Oil Region. In vit-w of tbe sad visi-
tatioo the people bad, a degrert o I ne'gh-
borly sympathy is due them, and we bboi.' Id
bo pleated to tee this expressed in a sub
stantial shape. Many poor families were
tendered houseless and homeless by the late
fire. Tbat this misfortune should bo made
tbe subject of mirth by sensational news
paper scribble rs, Moot only reprehensible,
but is certainly unworthy of theme who
have any feeling for the misfortunes of oth.
are. We are jHeised to learn that measures
hare been taken to build up the burnt dis
trict, and this time wilba superior class of
buildings, and we wish tbeir town unlimit
ed prosperity.
The success of the cultivation of quinine
in India and Australia ba induced tbe
California State Medical Society t mtiiior
Uli&t Congress with reference to the fitness
ol California for the growth of the Peruv i an
baric tree. In tbe two English colonies
named, trues were imported I mm Peru, and
large plantations rued along the loot of tbe
Himalaya mountains without tbe ll
trouble- Tbe demand for pure quinine in
India is great, as all tbe. English use it in
their regular drink, pale al, to ward 'off
tbe prevalent epidemic fevers. Although
tbe Californium thiuk that every pait ot
tbe foot hills of tbe Nevada range is equally
adapted to the growth ol the cinchona tree,
Ihey think indivihutl enterprise will not
attempt lis culture, unless aided by tbe
government, as was done la the countries
uameu.

t.sr.M. In n report made to the French
Academy rr Sciences, by M. l)eille, on the
physical and he.itiuj properties ol mineral
oils, tbat distinguished chemist dwells
largely on the dangers incident to the use
and storage of petroleum, and on the modes
ol preventing the disasters wbicli are of
such frequent occurrence. Tbe common
opinion, that all Mien cases are due to one
cause, namely, to Ihe highly In Hum Mile
nature of tbu volatile ingredients coutulrred
In those oils, which, by adinixttue vitli air
for explosive compounds, Is, according to
M. Deville, not wholly correct, though un
questionably a cause ol real danger. Many
of the Dies and acoideuls which occur may
be attributed, be says, to tbe very ure l
expulsion iu bulk wbicb mineral oils un
dergo by increase of temperature. If petro
leum has been barrelled during tbe cold
seasoo, it will expand largely wilb the brsl
appearance of bot weather, and will tbt-.i
burst the containing vessel, one tbe same
principle tbat ice ruptures water conduits
uud hydrants. Tbe Inflamable material
then oozes out, frequently without being
noticed, and is a lurking catiBu of dan

it not only produces a continuous flow ol

by menus of which the seams or veins of the
well are in a great measure cleared of para
line and other obstruct. on., and Ihe oil In
