Of all tie aetoundio* tacr* ifc**y pieseat. We think

coupled with the most compete exposition of assets

visable that some aitenti ;.p should be givento particu
lar sharpers whost dens are In various Tocillties., These
predatory guerillas in toe pretroleum or miningfield
generally have up»’n th*ir flag *-uch inscriptions as * * pe
troleum ex*hange,” or “petroleum agency/* or
mining agency," *e.» and the viciim’e power to es

chanffe anftjßiVteWi Jonah, while in the big fish, got
to the oil, but lie wa». doubtless, glad to bo freed from
his oily environments with a whole skin; those who
go after oil in the dene we refer to will not get quite
as near it as djd Jonah, nor yet come out whole, like
bin.
The Pope 'Farm Oil Company have called for an extra
assessment ol 60 cents per share to enable them to work
their lands.
The 44 Vance Stewart Bock Oil Company,” that a
few weeks ago advertised so extensively, has, we learn,
•‘gone op*” the stock not having been subscribed for.
The Titusville Banking an if Exchange Office of G. S.
■Warren&Co.» has “goneup” petrudeumically. The
■ * president ’ ’ of the combination, association, or com
pany, aW. b. Bannister, banker, has evaporated; so
have the deposits in the “bank.” The sheriff went af
ter the ‘‘ftEsets,” possibly is still going after them, but
our latest intelligence does notadvUe us how far he has
got. A Titusville journal, watch styles the event a
** catastrophe.” says; “Itpeems that Bannister had
used the money of tue depositors in the purchase of oil
territory, and had organized a company under the title
of the * New York Flowing Oil Company, l with a no
minal capital of $600,000. At the time of the crash he
•was in New York, for the purpose of selling the stock
of the company, and thereby r&isUg funds to replace
the deposits, and complete the purchase of the territory
upon which advances had already been made.” By
this defalcation the depositors wilt lose about $25,000.
The stockholders of the Central Coal and Oil Compa
ny are [happy. Lucky fellows! The directors “have
gone and done It * * by calling in an assessment of 25
cents per ihare, payable by December Ist.
Among the concerns in the oil way, which lately
jnade their appearance, in Philadelphia, is something
entitled «‘ The Dunkard oil Company. ll It makes, in
Its ** circular ” or “prospectus,” no mention of capi
tal, par value of shares, or subscription price. The
reason for mingthe title * ‘ Dunkard, * ’ is not veryclear.
It claims to hold by lesse, aad in fee simple, 103#
acres in “Green” county, yet by its own showing, it
has but one acre and a quarter, on Dunkard creek.
•This spot, it is claimed, is on the “Maple” farm
meaning, we presume, as the company does not under
stand the designation of its own property, the celebrated
oil farm of Bobert Mapel. All the borable land on this
farm, is, however, said to be held by other parties, and
the aforesaid acre and a quarter is on the top of a hill.
If the shares - of this company have any value, it rests
hpon the real'Worth oflOO acres, on a stream known as
•‘Ten Mile creek.” Somaoh for “The Dunkard Oil
According to its prospectus, one of the oil companies
aow claiming patronage extensively through the public
prints owns 4 * a deed right forever for oil on 1,500 aeres
©ntbe property known as the Brandon Tract, in For*
esi county;” also, “aleaseforntnety-nine(93)yearifor
sine*tenths (9*10) of * u *Le oil on a tract or 1,300 acres,
inown as the Messenger Tract, on the Clarion river,
about twelve mU« s above tbe Brandon Tract. 1 *
The company, it will be perceived, do not claim to
DWnoneacre of land in fee simple, but only nineteen*
twentieths of the oil right on two tracts t* elve mile 8
apart, comprising jointly 2,800 aeres, all in Forest coun
ty. This oil right is offered in the shape, of 300 000 shares
of stock, at $2 DO per share, amounting to $750,000; de
duct therefrom $lOO 000 for working capita], and $650,-
OCO remain as the net cost of the ell right aforeiald to
the original subtcribt rs for the company’sska-es, which
$050,000, of course, will be divided and distributed
among the originators of tbe scheme and the owners of
the land—which latter sold not their land, hut only
nineteen-twentieths of the oil on St; so', if no oil be
found, tht company will fade out, andttte land 1011 l
remain in its present ownership /
We have a list of two hundred and twenty-eight (228)
Dll companies, whose joint capital is divided iatoinore
than twenty millions of capital shares. Twenty-two
Of these companies have an aggregate capital of twenty
eight and half millions ($28,600,000) of dollars, divided
Into flyemillions (fl t OOP*OoD>of shares, eqailto ah ave
rage of 2j27,272 shares for each one of said twenty-two
oil companies!
Anyone can foresee that the existing plan of organiza
tion of the oil companies wiU not withstand the shock
of a financial panic nor a serious revulsion orfiuctua
lion in.the oil trade. And as panics, revulsions, and
fluctuations visit all commercial countries—see England
at this time-ibe period may not be far of when neces
sity and wisdom combined will cause a reorganization
of the oil companies, and a rednctlon*of their capital
khares to a number that will represent system afod in
sure greater confidence throughall stages of the stock
or oil markets.
Iron, coal, and copper are the older mining interests
In the United States, and, consequently, are now orga
nized on plans that units the teachings of experience
With the current lessons of the hour. After the oil
companies shall have gone through the same ordeal
there will he fewer oil snares, and those who are now
Buying their experience in the stock market will he
Wiser men.

of the Company:
Tract No. I—Known ns the * * Berry Farm, * * contain
ing 164 acres, owned by the Company in fee simple,
ntuated in Wood county. West Virginia, directly upon
the Ohio ilver. Several ompetent judges have visited
this property, all of whom agree in the opinion that it
presents unusual evidences of large subterraneous re
servoirs of oil.
Tract No. 2 consists of a tract of land in Washington
county, Ohio* also Oh the Ohio liver, about \\i miles
above Newport, containing 184 acres. It presents the
most extensive ravines, and certain evidences of the
presence of Oil; also, innumerable sites for Wells, with
several large oil Springs on one of the runs. There is
also in the oluffavainabeveinof Ooill, fully developed
(say six to eight fe*t thick).
