Thl morn ing Titotvllle Herald pabli-he an account of a "collision" between Dr. M. C. Egbert, ol thla place, and Mr. S. P. Boyer, ot Ti. tuaville, which I calculated to place bs Dr. In an erroosous light before the public and does a good man and a thorough gen tleman great iojuatice. From eye witnesses ot the affair we are Informed It was a cow ardly, and entirely unprovoked aaaault, and further that thla man Boyer exhibited hi courage and manlioeae (!) by striking the Dr., who Is much smaller man and was seated at the time, consequently entirely unprepared to anything of the kind, ttem behind with both flats. Suob nerve ought to place the gentleman In the Iroat raok of brave men suob Individuals as strike when tbelr opponent are down, er stab in the back. The Herald man, who was present at tbe time we learn, falls to make mention of the Insulting, and' taunting manner in which tbe "big brave" rbrew up at the Dr. allusion in regard to bis niisforlun of bav lag failed In business and accusing him of cbeating bia creditors, &e. Where is tbe honorable man that would stoop to such language, aod endeavor to '-kick a man down," wbo is striving to make good bis ill fortune and pay every dollar of bis Indebt edness, as will eventually be tbe case. Aod fuilher, for tbe benefit uf tbe Herald and It bold 'strike-behind' champion, we would stale that Dr. Egbert baa paid every dollar of his individual Indebtedness; every dollar that be borrowed from banks or baud log houses, since the failure so megneul muusly alluded to by gentleman Boyer; that his failure was solely occasioned by 'differ ences in oil contract," a misfortune to whiob soy oil buyer is liable, aod to which o dishonorable motive can be attached; that be never owed Mr. Henry Hurley $10,. 000 nor was oever bafrieoded In the least by that individual. We have known Dr. Eg bert for years aod have ever lound him ao honorable, bigbmind4 mau, both soolally aod In a business point of view, aoi wbo would not stoop to traducing and villifying any man's character, neither would be act the coward by striking a man from bebind or attempting to bully-rug him. Even if be had done so, he would nave "faced tbe musie," aod not made a 'Bull Run retreat" for tbe nearest justice office to complain of biuiself aod pay a Hue, as we are informed tbe brave aod ohtvalrous Boyer, accompan ied by the editor of tbe Herald and the rest ut the Barley clique, did as soon as the train arrived at Oil City. We also venture the assertion that had tbe Doctor's friends been In tbe car at the time of tbe cowardly assault, tbe result might have been entirely different, but as lbs matter now stands he has made more frlouds, aod all unite lu pronouncing tbe assault upon him by Mr. Buyer as entirely vavacrsAtable, base and cowardly in tbe .highest jegM, Tbe mas meeting held at Oil City, yrs- terdsy, after a long deliberation, came to tbe conclusion that tbe South Improvement Company wus virtually dead, and passed a resolution "raising tde blockade" and al lowing all to sell tbelr oil. Tbe prediction o. certain disaffected in dividuals that tbe Producer's Union would die out Is not likely to prove true. The Union remains intset and ready to do bat tle against any ether thieving combination that may make a similar attempt at plun der. Tbe news of the disastrous Ore at Oil City, caused a general feeling of regret, and a large number of citizens left for that place on tbe 1:20 train to lead tbelr aid in subdu ing tbe flames II required. The Titusville Ore department came down as far as Miller Farm by special train, when word was aenl that tbe fire was under oon- trol and they accordingly returned. , Tbe people of Voungsville, Wsrren coun ty, are considerably ezoiled over tbe pros pect of striking cil in that town. A well drilled by a Titusville man is nearly down and the show is said to be excellent. We are indebted to Mr. D. W. Nields,tbe accomodating Superintendent of the W. U.
