O O Tbe following complimentary notice of our town we copy from tbe Titusville Her ald: That portion of Washington street, Pe troleum Centre, which waa burned some time since, is being rapidly rebuilt. Near ly all of tbe western side ol the street is built up, aod soma parts of tbe opposite side. Tbe old Petroleum House, wbicb was burned at tbe samd time is in process of erection. The business of the Centre demanded that this district should be ro. built, and the citizens bave rapidly pushed forward tbe work of replacing the build ings, and a lew weeks will witness the charred remains of tbe old slructu res buried beneath new ones. Tbe attention of the public is called to the new advertisement of Nicholson & Blackmon, wbicb will be found on our first page. Tbese gentlemen are always up to the requirements of their customers, and keep on band a complete assortment ot everything usually found in a well regulated hardware stooe lrotn a paper of tucks up to a cooking stove. In addition tbeir stock ot oil well supplies canuot be surpassed in the oil region and comprises everything needed in fitting op an oil well for dt tiling or pump ing. Tbey are fair and liberal dealers, act. tog honorable and upright with all who may favor them with their patronage. A man was recently anested at Venango Pa., oo tbe A. G. W. R. R , for swearing and taken before Justice Blystone, of that place. It was proved that tbe man bad uttered ten oatbs, for which tbe Justice fined Mm 67 cents apiece and tbe cost ol tbe suit. If that law was put in force in tbe oil region there would be no need of taxing tbe people for public expenses as tbe flues for swearing would pay it all and leave a balance. In tbe case of tbe Roberts Petroleum Tor pedo Company, cnarged witb maintaining a nuisance in tbe shape of a nitro-glycerine factory, in this county, and up for trial be fore tbe court at Franklin, tbe jury yester day returned a verdict of guilty.

Alter an attempt to draw the tools on Friday last, and perceiving that tbe broken jar leaned against the side of tbe bole, Mr. Lutber Immediately altered bis socket, and as stated previously, caught hold and alter live hours heavy jarring hauled out tbe tools. Pitholb City, April 27th. Mr. Editor: Well No. 1, Bo vies Bros. & Leslie lease, McCalmont farm, bad six feet good pebble rock entirely free from any deposit of gray or bastard sand. No oil came into tbe bole. A shale rock was struck at 6G8 feet, and the six feet ot sund at 8S5 feet. Tbe entire depth of tbe well is 907 feet. Tbe well is dry and the only fact demon strated so far is that the McCalmont farm is dry territory; the Hooker farm mostly good for paying wells, and that tbe oil belt prob ably goes east of soutb aod strikes diagon ally through the Reeser fatm. F. Tbe Grant & Cbesley well, on the C. C. Cornen tann, upper part of Holiday run, was torpedoed a few days since, and bes iuoreased in production from two barrels to about 111 teen per day.

Kenyoii' Xnv JMsnblc Art ins Oil I'm nip fur 1'uinpiiig Oil or Wilier in Deep Well. ' Kenyon's New Double Acting Oil Pump is acknowledged to be the best pump now in use. One ot its leading features is that it not only produces a continuous flow of nil or otber fluid, but that ft creates and sustains a constant and pwerfui suction, by means ol which tbe seams or veins of the well are in a great measure cleareo of para fine and other obstructions, and the oil in tbe veins is drawn 'towards the well. It has been ascertained by actual test that tbe use of this pump causes a gradually increas ing flow ot oil. It is well known by oil opemlore tbat this improvement ia of great vilue, and one tbat bas been l.tnt sought ft?. The ebl.-st mechanics of our country have for years bien at work trying to find out some new and untried plan to prolong the life time cl an oil well; and nothing yet to our knowledge has been brought before the public that in any way equals the power ot the Kenyoo Pump, experience baving tiaiubl that it is tbe long coulinued suo tioo that has the power to keep up and in crease the production of oil wells.
