4a the immediate vicinity of the
wondeittu Burning; Springs,” now regarded as a
sure indication of the presence of oil, fro m Ike fact that
it- *“ * 8®?. that rises to the surface and burns upon
the water. This property consists of an ana of 1,185
acres of magnificent oU ana mineral lands, of which the
Company owns an undivided half interest in fee sim
ple, extending on the Kanawha river, which
navigable to the Ohio, Other streams, tributaries of
the Kanawha,traverse this tract, presenting along their
t&tFQ 11 * every surface indication of a rich yield'of oil.
The Ct mpany holds the right to put down wells all over
this extensive boring surface, and oil has already been
discovered on this property, near the river, at the denth
of 86 feet. The sinking or two wells to the depih
feet, if necessary, was provided for in thepnrchaseof
the fond, all of which is paid for without touching the

well were ft reed to abandon it on the breaking ont
of the rebellion, but the Company has now made ar
rangements to reopen and tube it, when a large yield of
oil may reasonably be expected from this source alone,
in addliion to the above described properties, the Com
pany owns In fee simple some 400 acres of mineral lands
m-rennsylvania. This Company is most fortunate in
e very facility for rapidly developing the oU.
having on its own property both timber and coal in
great abundance, and in also having the resident Su

as soon as oil shall be obtained In snffioient quantities,
a dividend on the capital stock will be declared. The

The American Publishers' Circular of Sent. Ist says:
It is acknowledged by everybody that the German
language is peculiarly rich la a class of stories com- '
preheat! ed under the term, “Miihrche?,” which are
especially attractive to juvenile readers. The Grimm
collection•' has become almost domesticated in our
houses. We have here another brimming draught
broughtupfro'm-thesameo'deh well. It is just such a
collection as will delight the hearts of bright boys and
gtrls. We almost envy the little folks the pure, hearty
pleasure which- the book v ill give them, as their wide
opened eyes go staringly from page to page, and their
little hearts beat an excited accompaniment to the ua- -
folding of f trange events Messrs. Ashmead & Bvans
have issued the work in the handsome style which it
deserves It Is, is every way, a highly creditable spe
cimen of book-making The typography is admirably
executed, the paper is delicately tinted, and the bind
ing, the gilt top and the lettering, present an attractive
external appearance. We should also add that there
are several approprw te and expressive illustrations. It
Is both a pleasure and a duty to commend such a work.

J. I. &J. O. WEST, No. «7 CHAMBERS STBBET,
NEW YOBX,
Are the owners of the patent and exclusive mannf&e
tnrere of this,
PATENTED DUPLEX ELLIPTIC STEEL SPRING
* SKIRTS.
' This Invention connate of Duplex (or two) Elliptic
Steel Springs, ingeniously braided tightly and firmly
together, edge to edge, making the toughest, most el&#-
tie, flexible, and durable spring ever u«ed, enabling the,
wearer, in consequence of its great elasticity and flexi
bility, to place and fold the'shirt when in use as easily
and with the a&me convenience .as a silk or muslin
dress. It entirely obviates and silences tbe only objec
tion to hoop skirt*, viz: the annoyance to'the wearer
as well as the public, especial! y in crowded assemblies,
carriages, railroad cars, chnrch pews, or in any crowded
place, from thedifflculty of contracting them to occupy*
lug a small space. This entirely removes the difficulty,
while giving the skirt the usual full and symmetrical
form• and is the lightest and most stylish and graceful
appearance for the street, opera, promenade, or house
drops. A lady having enjoyed the pleasure, comfort,
and great convenience of wearing the Duplex Elliptic
Spring Skirt for a single day, will never afterward
willingly dispense with the use of them. They are the
best quality in ever; part, and by far the lightest, most
durable, comfortable; and economical skirt made. Mer
chants will be supplied as above, and ladies in most
first-class retail stores in this city and throughout the
different States.
