PETE BOLEUEL
6 LEGEND
~01" TILE ALLEGHENY'
If y.ou will listen White I sing, a. story, felate,
it may be thought of worth to those inclined to
speordate.
Far cff among Venango' s hi; ls Allegheny's vale,
Where Oil Creek spr,:ade ter greasy tide to ripple
in the - gale;
Where oil spouts up from out the ground as manna
once came dOWII; -
Where e very field is honey combed and every farm's
atown, ;
Where man bath gone to rest at niLht doubt, debt
and despair, .
And risen in the morning light and envied mil-
Bonaire—
There camera man, among tt e rest attracted there
by gain; .
Afflicted with that,sore disca3e called oil upon the
brt. in,
(For be it known that Peter old, the Hermit, never
found
2Blong pilgrims a more zealous horde to visit Edo
ground).
This man, Pete Boletim by name, for what I fear
• .to tell,
'Bought one sq,nare yard of coal oil land to sink a
teal oil well.
A Bowing well" was on his right, tt a , . s pantin
well" was near,
~ p umping well" was on hist left, a' 'dry well"
on his rear. •
With such surroundings fair and bright (except
the rearward one,
But Peter-never looked back), atdigging he begun.
He bored, he drilled and punched all night, he
bored and drilled alkday,
Through loam, through gravel, rock and sand,
through gTanite, coal and clay.
lor forty days and forty nights he'd looked to sea
oil come,
And had well near as many frights at what he
thought its hum.
His engine puffed, the d'errick creaked, the augur
went plunk, plunk;
And with each oft repeated stroke the well it
deeper sunk;
And often, as he plied his task, he thought upon
the gains
That would reward his anxious toil and pay him
for his pains. _
Ile saw "two•forty on the-plank, and footed up
the bill
For mansions fair with marble .halls on Broad
street or Bush Hill.'
'Whilst thus in juSt such rev' riesjost, as he' dhit
been before,
7:le heard a strange, mysterious sound come rtishirn
from the bore;
Then raised he up and shouted “Oil i Oh, listen
hoviit hurab 1"
Be danced,'he yelled, and shouted “Oil ! ' Tis oil !
It comes; it comes !"
But hold, high hopes fall' n before (they' ye
sometimes fall' n behind),
Arid caused a man to lose his life, his money,' soul
• and mind.
Oh, Peter ! If y outiad but stopped when you al
flist began,
If not a wiser,-bitter one, you' dbsen a ifsernattn..
I'o oil came • spouting from the depths, but in its
place and stead
There - was an awful caving in beneath and over
head;
Down went the,augur and the vats, and down the
engine flew;
The one Eguard yard of coal oil land, and down
•• - _
• went Peter too. • _ .
Thus everything Was swallowed up with inch a
mesh and roar
Bs never has been heard of since and ne'er had been
before.. • •
And when the caving in had. ceased it left no sign
nor ghost;
The earth closed up as closed the sea o'er Pharaoh
and his host..
Some•sages since have sought the spot and held
-. their chins in thought,
And thus they reason on the chance that with poor
Peter wrought, •
That Peter—( by what great ill luck it matters not
a pni)—
In.seeking oil a 'vacuum struck, and that it—sucked
him in.

sicrn, Jacksonville, Fla., SIR: It affords me
pleasure to testify to the invaluable aid received
through you from the Sanitary Commission on
the occasion of our late engagement.
To your prompt response to my requests for ,
sanitary supplies, and theffiersonal exertions of
yourself- and assistants in the care of and
removing our wounded, is due the prevention
of much suffering, which otherwise would have
/seen inevitable. • -
That I found it necessary to draw so largely
upon the stores of the Commission is explained
1:)y :the fact that at the time': our wounded
arrived I was entirely destitute of all supplies of
government stores from the medical depart
ment, an there was no means of obtaining
them froth any other source than the noble in
stitution which you so creditably represented.
I am happy, also, to add that I received from
the Commission a full supply of all articles
called for by my requisitions upon them.
I am sir, very respectfully,

road, ordering me to forward to him at the
earliest possible moment certain medical and.
sanitary supplies, and a special train of cars, as
we had a large number of wounded there.
That, at the same time such telegram reached
Me, I had no stores nor supplies whatever, ex

the field, and they not embracing the articles re
raui7ed.
That, in this emergency, I called upon Mr.
YU B. Day, agent in charge of the affairs of the
United States Sanitary Commission in this Dis

articles.
That he at once supplied from the stores of
the Commission all the articles specified in my
requisitions, and proceeded-himself with them
to the front, where, I have since learned, he
arrived safely, and;with his assistants, rendered.
valuable service , in taking care of and removing
our wounded. -

were placed. _
That my requisitionswere - all honored by nir.

furnished by him the patients under my care
must unavoidably have suffered very severely.
That my larger requisitions upon the Com

cessary from the fact that the required articles
could not be obtained from any other sources.
That I received from tho stores of the Com
mission an abundant supply of all articles
embraced in " my requisitions, and cheerfully

SHARP'S CELEBRATED
. SIA PlLL.—Dyspepsia has hitherto been an.
incui a- le nisease. Its treatment has lieen vague,
vexatioue, - and for the most part - e yen inju.riOns to
the patient. We now offer to our tellow-citizeris
as ansoLuma and SPEEDY cure—an assertion we
would not make - without the most complete'
evidence of its truth.
Without a correct theory no disease can, with
tolerable certainty, be cured—except by the slow
Method of careful study and experiment; but when
these are succesefnl, theory may be perfectedand
established upon such success, and by seasoning
_on the effects of the remedy; in plain words, the
means of cure ascertained by experiment, become
the substantial basis of a true theory.
'I he theory we have been, in this way, led to
adopt, applies, without exception, to all cases of
Dyspepsia, because the remedy cures all cases. It
most therefore be simple: a complex theory is oon
structed to suit all cases and aspects of chsease;bnt
individually, it applies to none, and is visionary.
On the ct ntrary, a simple theory grows out of all
the facts accompanying the cure, and is not con
structed to sun these facts.
When the healthy stomach receives the feocl, it
first app.des itself firmly and closely to its con
tents, in order that the gastric juice, - which forms
in drops on its inner surface, may penetrate and
dissolve the food. This effected, by additional.
contraci ion, this portion is removed, and another
undigested portion brought in contact with the
surface of the stomach and the gastricjnice to un
dergo the same changes and conversion. We sup
pose that in Dyspepsia this simple and beautiful
process is delayed and becomes painful, mainly,
if not entirely,from an absence of the gastric juice,
without wftich digestion cannot take place, or from
diminished or altered secretion of this juice.
The stomach, finding delay in this first and es
sential step of digestion, contracts more and more
firmly en its hard contents, which, by this time,
should have been dissolved. This protracted and
unnatural effort, or contraction. we believe,is the
true cause of that peculiar suffering at the pit of
the stomach-of which the dyspeptic so bitterly
complains.
This is our theory, and in Gis way is accounted
lor the first and constant symptoms of Dyspepsia
--“pain or an indescribable suffering at the pit of
the stomach." We have said it was constricted
on the effect of our remedy. If three or six little
pills will (as these certainly will) remove, in most
cases, an attack which has resisted cure for years,
it must do it, we think, in the way described. For
the secretory apparatus of .the stomach is the only
part of that organ which. can be thus speedily in
finenced by remedies applied to it.
The imperfect digestion of food, or an attack of
Dyspepsia is accompanied. in some persons, by
other most annoyfrig *symptoms, besides the
qaraversal one" of pain. Acidity afflicts some and
flatulence is very common, and are necessary re
sults of a process more like fermentation than di
gestion, The secretions of the month and throat
are altered; the tongue is often furred, the month
slimy, and the effort to swallow often painful.
The bowels, costive or irregular in action—or there
may be constant diarrlicea: The external warmth
of the body is diminished, the skin is dry and as
painfully affected in many cases, by the applies
ion of cold as the diseased stomach is by food. In
this dry and morbid state, the skin is often affected
by testers and other eruptions. Anomalous affect
ions 011ie nervous system, palpitation et the heart,
tmpaired vision, and pains in the head are
frequent; but depression of spirits, a constant lan
guor and gloom, with stiffness and soreness of the
limbs, and indisposition to move, are the most
constant and distressing symptoms of this class.
Though rarely fatal of itself, indigestion quickly
lays the foundation of other diseases, some of which
are of the most fatal character; and homimperfect
nourishment and sleep, the patient often falls into
a condition which plainly show* a very serious
decay of all the powers of life. Nausea and vomit-.
lug frequently accompany indigestion. In this
way the stomach rids itself of food it cannot digest,
and the patient is relieved; but the disease re
mains, and the emaciation of the system soon be
comes very great. Dyspepsia is emphatically the
disease that takes from us the bracing stimuli of
ambition and hope, emasculates its, and unfits as
for the enterprise ol life. .
The dietof a Dyspeptic should be plainly cooked,
and sessoned.nreate, from animals that • have ar
rived at their maturity. For examplts—good beef,
and not veal—mutton, and not lamb, roasted,
boiled or broiled. Eat nothing that is fried, and
void all those dishes on which the skill of the cook
has been exhausted. Eat slowly—chew well—and
watch for the first hint the stomach gives that it has
enough, and then quit. Drink water—avoid alco
hol in every form. Eat bread a day or two aid.
Do not eat little and often, but a fair allowance
and always nearly at the same hour. Pursue this
treatment, and you will soon say of all other Plans
—“Sat me lusisti, Indite maim altos.'
