euotly struck 00 Sugar Crack, ' about one
all abofn Cooperttown, it yielding 7 bar
rale par day by actual gauge It it owned
by Messrs. Brown A Balitoo. Tbaaa gen
tlemen ate about to drill three more welli
oa tbelr tract. The rigtfor two are alrea
dy op, and lumber for the third it an the
ground.
Adjoining their tract It tbe Walbridge
farm, upon which several parlies bare loca
ted, end intend to. commence the work of
development at once.
About three-quarters, of a mile below
town, on tbe tame tide of tbe Creek, oar
towntman, Capt. W. L. Smith, bat aaelgbt
acre tract of the Young farm, .upon wbicb
be intendt to eotBmen.ee operation! at oaee.
During tbe excitement existing in 1865, two
welli were put down on bit tract, one to tha
depth of 6i0 feet and tbe other one 200 ft.,
and atterwarde abandoned. Tbe one 600
feet deep bat flowed small qntntltiec of oil
through tbe cooduoior bole ever tlnce
enough to indicate that tbe greasy fluid ex
isted there in paying qnantities. Tbe Capt
propoaee to ten tbit well and drill the other
to the required depth. He feele confident
of atriking oil, and we certainly hope may
succeed In bit undertaking.
Oil mattert en Sugtrcreek promise to be
lively tall winter.

expanding with tbe brat and bunting, Bet
ting Are to the ttlll and tbe thedt over tbe
refinery. The ttlll is ruined beyond repair,
and tbe thedt (. were partially burned and
torn down to prevent tbe Ore tpreading.
Through the exerlioo of tbe work men and
tbe eitizeni, aad the fact that hardly a
ibreath of air wat atirrlng, a diaattront con
flagration wet averted. Had tbe large Iron
tank at tbe refinery end other tank in tba
immediate vicinity caught Ore, no telling
where the flamec would have been stayed.
Tbe Iuu it estimated at between $500 aad
$800. Tbe Ore will lot materially inter

At we predicted Isst spring, this season
bst produced tbe greatest oil excitement
ever known In Clarion county. It It caused
by actual development) and obtaining tome
of tba bett wells now la the whole oil re

tbe productiveness or our territory bas caus
ed a rise In tbe price of land tbat seems al
most fabulous. Tbe development is as yet
confined to Richland and Perry townships,
but is coming up t he Clarton river steadily;
and soon Besver, Licking, Salem, Asblsnd,
sod other townships will be spouting oil
like tbe whales of the North Eea. The Oil
City parties who leased land last week
around Clarion borough, are now here at
work, on the ground, aod will Immediately

tbat tbe valley of the Clarion will prove at

of tbe best wells in tbe whole oil region are
seven or eight (miles up tbe Clarion, from
