Two SIDER TO A Smonv.—The Washington Sfax uives the following amusing account of the recent capture of cattle by the rebels : " The correspondent of the New York Tribune writes from the front of Petersburg claiming that all our cattle captured by the enemy from the ,Tomes river corral were recaptured by Gregg's ca valry. "We regret to say that the Tribune correspondent is not well informed. We have recaptured, at last accounts, precisely one bullock, an unfortunate ani mal with a broken leg, whose fearful bellowings In a niece of woods attracted our cavalry to the place, and the woods having been carefully recormoltred, surrounded, and penetrated, the recapture above mentioned was successfully made. The cattle ac count therefore stands: Captured by the enemy. 2,437 ; recaptured, 1; missing, 2,436." The Herald's City Point correspondent tells a dif ferent tale about it, however, and one which, if true, places the joke upon the other side: " The rebels, not satisfied with having driven off two thousand four hundred and eiwirty-dro excel lent beef cattle out of a herd containing but two thousand four hundred and eighty-six, these ma rauding rascals had no sooner got them safely be yond the Blacliwater, and repulsed - our cavalry sent Si, pursuit, than they impudently returned to the F razing ground with four or five brigades, and spent thirty-six hours in search of the one missing lame ox.' A STRANGE iiiiSSlELE.—General Hood sent his compliments to General Howard the other day, In the shape of a east-iron window - weight, weighing seven pounds. It is about a foot long, and an inch and a quarter through. This nitsallo of destruction is believed to have been thrown from a Whitworth aim and must have carried a distance of two miles. Nobody was hurt by its arrival. The rebel stock of ammunition must be ' somewhat exhausted when they have recourse to such materials of war. POLICEMEN ON A STRLKE.—The police of Wheel. ins, Va., are on a strike. Several months ago they requested an increase of pay. Finding the city go vernment disinclined to accede to their demands they have refused to do duty any longer, and the city is without its usual guardians. Highway rob beries are, in consequence, of nightly occurrence. rrY i'r i is.

From this point the oil ca u be shipped to Parkersburg, on the Ohio river, for fifty cents a barrel. by the river. These lands are adjacent to the tract recently sold to the "Burning Spring Petroleuni Company," of New York, whose capital is live million dollars, and are nearly equal iu productive value to the New York Company's land, and in prospective value are believed to be in no Via y inferior. Vel id of these Burning Spring Walls were first bored in kilt, and then prmlaced at a depth of two hun dred to three ndred feet as much as ll,nr hundred barrels per day. They were abandoned on the break ing out of the rebellion. The restoration of order has caused cspitallAs to look to ibis section. This is un doubtedly the bent oil region isVirginia, as can be as certained by inquiry of an y one familiar with teat sec tion of coo - tarry. While these well: at from two hundred to three hun dred feet deep are now yielding from twenty to thirty 'barrels p.r day, it has been demonstrated that by boring them to the depth of five hundred to seven hun dred feet the third sand stone will be reached, as was done at Oil City, and a large and constant supply of oil obtained. It' is proposed by this company to expend - fmcnt.p.fil thousand dollars- at once in boring, under the superintendence of a reliable engineer, the preheat wells deeper, and a number of new ones to a Still greater depth. The 7)A:h....tors af this company can rt the _tallest in tro fry and iniyewt Loa( ion cr.! , to the lo a cationand charac te.• of these LANDS. The production of imperfectly developed wells now on these lauds, would probably afford an intatediate di vidend cent. a n:onth. on a capital of a mil lion dollars, but no especial reliance is based upon the went production of badly bored and neglected wells, but upon the future development of what is believed to be tile meet pet retsina' tract next to that owned by the celebrated Columbia Oil Company on Oil Creek.
