from ihe start. There is rtom on the land for several
more wells, two of which wilt be immediately oum
mencedby the company-and In which we shall have
tic same Interest as in the Jersey. The character'of
this property, as oil land. Is well-knrwn; it is only ne
cessaty to »ay that no well on it has ever failed In get

The valuable Oil territory of this Company is located
on the Kauawsa river, Gilmore county* »Veat Virginia,
some distance above its confluence with the Onio atV
Parkersburg (the terminus of the Baltimore and Ohio
£&llroftd), and lies-directly neon and in a direction,
across tbeagi eat "Oil Belt’’ of this region (as maybe
seen upon the map}* in the immediate vicinity of the
wonderful "Burning Springe," now regarded, aa a
sure indication of the presence of oil, from the fact that
it is the oil gas that rises to the surface and burns upon
the water. This property consists of an area of 1,185.
acres of magnificent oil and mineral lands, of which the.
Company owne an undivided half interest iafee.aim»
pie, extending IK miles on the,Kanawha river* which,
fa navigable to the Ohio. Other streams, tributaries of
the Kanawha,tTaverse this tract, presenting alougthalr
margins every surface indication of a rich yield of oil.
The Ct mpany holds the right to put down welts atlover
this extensive boring surface* and oil has already been
discovered on this pioperty* near the river, avthe depth
of 36'ieet, The sinsing of two wells to the dep'h of 800
• feet, if necessary, was provided for in the pa refuse of
the land, airof which is paid for without touohinr the
working or reserved capital of the Company. In addi
tion to this, the Company owns an important interest
(also paid for) in a well located within 400 yards of the
great LeweUyn. well*which has flowed 2,500 barrels per
day* and is directly among the celebrated Bathbone
Sr crop (see map). Theeejsre* it is said,the greatest pro
ncinE wells in the country. The former owners of
this well were f* zeed to abandon it on the breaking out
of the rebellion, but tho Company has now nude ar
rangements to reopen anddube it, whtn a large yield of
oil may reasonably he expected from this source alone.t
In addition to the above described properties, the Com
pany owns in fee simple some 400 acres of mineral lands
in Pennsylvania. This Company is most fortunate in
posrcsiing every facility for rapidly developing the oil,
having on its own property both timber and coal in
great abundance, ana in also having the resident Su
perintendent of the works, Hr. T. G. Farnsworth,
largely interested as a stockholder. The manage
ment being in the hands of practical men, of indomi
table energy and perseverance* the-stockholders may
reasonably expect ioju to find their shares ranking
with the. belt dividend paying stocks on the market;
for, being, out of debt, and having a large working
Stall the holders of stock in this Company take no
of being called upon idr additions', means to carry
on the operations of the Company* but on the contrary,
as soon as oil shall be obtained in BUffl-ient quantities,
a dividend on the capital stock will be declared. The
remaining portion of the 20,000 shares reserved stock
omy ia now being sold for additional working capital,
at the subscription price of two dollars per Bhaze. It

of tho classes of movements, and in the adaptation of
the exercises to the wants of both sexes and persons of
all ages. In tbe first, all the exercises are without ap*
