Our Pitbolo car respondent, writing under date of Jul, IStb, gives tbe following luters sting oil news: The branching ont of wels here Indicates old Pithole's second rise. We have Ibree new wells Ibis week,whlcb from their opposite angles Indicate a large area ol eood territory with as fine sand rock as tbe region affords. The Sprague & Doollttle well, new, at the south end ol tbe lloluidcn farm, is do ing 8 to 10 barrels daily, while tbo Frank Mason and Andrews wells, now, at tbe north end of tbo farm are nroduaing IS to 20 bar rels. Tbe supposition Is tbat tbo belt covers tbe whole farm. .

It is understood tbe U. S. Petroleum Co. are about to plug all tbe old boles on tbe Holmden flute,, and commence new develop ments where tbe oil used to oome from. I understand they Intend soon to start op the famous Grant well, and alto to sink a now well wltbin 15 to 60 feet of tbe old Unl ted States well. The Sherman and Noble wells on Oil Creek, prove conclusively tbat tbe old ter ritory of Venango county is still worthy of great attention. A Miss Priest, of Well's River, Vermont, was accused In tbe Lyndon Union of having eloped with an affinity. In a letter to tbe editor she vigorously denies tbo soft im peaobment, and thus characterizes her de tainers:. ''The people of Well's River are in pretty small, business if It has got so any one can't go and Eee their mother unless they have elbped with some fellow. Tbey have got to have something to talk about, for if tbey attend to tbeir own buslnes, it would go harder with them, than tbe measles or oanker rash with tbe children last fall, and more would be sick L am sure. But the greatest trouble with. tbem Is tbey are all mad beoauts tbey can't get some one to elope with." Tbo explosion this afternoon was earned by tbe tar still at tbo Monitor Oil Works giving way and catching fire. No particu lar damage wss done.

Tritrmno Stonis. Many of our read ers bave.doubtlcss beard of the famous trav eling stone of Australia. Similar curios! ties have recently beeo found In Nevada, which are desctlbed as always perfectly round, tbe majority of them as Isrge as a walnut, and of an Irony nature. Wben dis tributed about on the floor, table, or other level surface, wltbin two or three feet of eaoh otber, they immediately begin travel ing toward tbo common center, and there buddlo up In a bunch like a lot of eggs In a nest. .A single stone, removed to tbe dis tance of three and a half fret, upon being released, at once started off, with wonderful and somewhat comical celerity, to join lis follows; taken away four or Cve feet, it re mained motionless. They are found In a region tbat is comparatively level and Is nothing but bare rock. Scattered over tbe barren region are .little basins, from a foot to a rod io diameter, and It Is in tbe bottom of these tbat tba rolling stones are found. They are tram tbe size of a pea to Ave or six inches in diameter. The cause of these stones rolling together is doubtless to be found in the material ol which tbey are composed, which appears to be lodestone or magnstlo Iron ore. ''Rolling stones gather no moss." -Coal and Iron Reoord. Tub Oxoxdaoa and Catdoa, Indians. There are about three hundred Onondaga and Cayuga Indians residing wltb tbe Sen ecas on tbe Cattaraugus and Allegheny Reservations.. The aifestion of tbeir remov al from tba Reservations by tbe Senecas has been agitated for many years. Tbe Seneca Counoil not long since passed a resolution lor tbeir removal. Tbe Cayueas elaimod a right to tbe occupancy of these Reservations with tbe Senecas, under treaty stipulations. Tbey also Claim that having intermarried with tbe Senecas for a ereat manv vears tbeir indistinctive character as separate tribes nad nearly faded out except In name, and having no other lands, that it would be cruel to forcibly remove tbem from, tbeir houses and kindred on tbese Reservation!). It should be understood that the tribal rela tions follow tbe mother and not the lather. So that Seneca woman marrvlnor an Onon. daga man, tbeir children taking tbe tribal relations ot tbe mother, would be Senecas. We learn tbat tbe question as to tbe rlchts of the Cayugas and Onondagas to reside with the Senecas on tbese reservations, was some months since referred to tbe Hon. Sec retary of tbe Interior for tbe decision, and tbat tbe Secretary baa decided "the Onon dagas and Cayugas have by tbeir loni uu- disturbed residence amone tbe Seneo. wbich residence is referred to in tbe treaty ol 1838 aLd by tbeir intermarriage with the Senecas, acqiilrml rights of occupancy in which tbey should be maintained;" and be dlreots tbe U.

Tbe Frontzingcr farm, now owned by S. D. Kama, John A. Brown and A. Gibeon, it is thought will ell prove excellent oil ter ritory.
