It is now yellow Autumn, no longer divided from Su miner by tbe plumy sheaf and lingering flowers, but with lea nt -es of its own, marked with slow decay. Tbore is a lioa beetle red on its cheek, too beautiful to last loog aod erory wind that blows pale3 the crimson hue, or scatters Its beauty on tbe empty air, 'for everywhere around us soon tbe looVes will Tall aud na ture prepare ilsoir for the livery of bleak and dreary winter. October according to tbe old Saxon calendar was called tbe wine month, and among the ancient Germans the winter month, from tbe approach ot winter with the full moon of tbe eighth month. In soma of tbe ancient Saxton cal endars this month is allegorized by the fig tire of a husbandman carrying a sack on bis shoulder aod sowing coro, in allusion to tbe practice of sowing the winter grain, which lake? place in Oetobcr. Though d melancholy 'feeling is sesocla tefl with October, from tbe general decay of nature by which It is characterized, tbero occur, nevertheless not unfrequently, in II soma of thefloesl aud most exhileratlng weather in tbe year. Frosts in the morn lug and evening aro common, whilst the mldd'e of the day Is often enlivened hy all the sunsblno ot July without its oppressive nms, and the clearness of a frosty day in December or January without its pierolng cold. The oil rlinery at Tidioute, which bad been run by Mr. Nichols, of Petroleum Ccnl ro, for several months, was disposed ot IdbI week to some Tlluiville parties. Mr. Nichols says that at the present rates for freights it is impossible to make a refinery at Tidioute pay. A barrel of tbe pteteol priced oil is required to ship a barrel of re1 fined from Tidioute to Oil City, and when a transfer Is tnado to soma other road tbe freight will swallow all profits. Tbe pur chasing parties intend to rim the refinery lor a time, or until they are satisfied that It Is a ruinous project. Derrick. We aro authorized by Messrs. Nicbols & Hughes, owners ol th Tidioute refinery, to stale that tbey never made auy of tbe above statements. Tbey made money at refiuing in Tidioute, and did not sell out to Titus ville parties, but sold tbe refinery tbis alter noon to Mr. M. L. Bates, of Jamestown, N. V., as tbey desire to gal out of tbe business. Mr. Batfs is an old Oil Creek refluer aod thoroughly understands the business. He iuiends starting up the refinery at once.

Ing article in regard to the oil trade and state of times la tho West Virginii oil dis trict: Oil operations are slacking off, owing lo the hard times; we wis!) tbey were over, the best of men are hard np now, and we think only lor a short time. The Parkers burg banks are doing oil in their power lo bolp their customers, and at the present writing It looks as though the panio was most over. We are sorry to say, that ru? mors were ripe in Parkersbnrg last week, that several parlies who were obliged lo let tbelr paper lay over were broke up, such however Is not the case, there is not a sin gle oil man la West Virginia who is in debt, but what has at least two dollars lo assets where be bas one dollar la liablli ties. We 'hope that those that are ablo to bridge this crisis over, will live, and let live," and we would advise tbe discontinu ance of all suits ot law against men wbo aro working bard bore for a living; their employer cannot pay it present without a sacrifice, and if he is obliged to make that sacrifice, will discharge them and slop his work. We advise forebear mce in all cases, and now that we are having such fur J times, we can see the curse of selling oil on lime, hereafter let all sales be tor cash; bands can then be paid cash, our mercbaute who are now carrying nearly all the men lo tbe region.', can sell for cash and afford to sell cheaper. When these times are reach ed, and Dot perhaps until then, tbe work logmen of Volcano will begiu to board their little savings, and another panlo will not find their employers In debt to them, and the employer with bis pocket .lull of oil buyers puper, uoable to get money to pay his debts. H:ird times are only one ol tbe many curses of tbe credit system. Leu. Voucher's ililltard Parlor is a por ular resort. t3PKrv. W. C.
