The property of the Company consists of the following: No. 1. Three-eighth sof the working interest in the celebrated Jersey Well, on the Hyde and Egbert Farm, on Oil Creak, with the acre of land on which the well is located. This well has been flowing since early in May, ISM, at the rate of about three hundred and fifty barrels daily, and ii now flowing at that rate, thus yielding to the Company betweenfifty and sixty barrels daily, wortn, at present prices, twenty thousand dol lars per mouth, which Wul pay to the Stockholders in this Company MORE THAN THREE PEE CENT. PER MONTH from the start. There i< room on the land for several more well*], two of which will be immediately com- ; menced by the Company, and in which we shall have the same interest as in the Jersey. The character of this property, as oil Hr d, is well known; it is only necessa ry to say that no well on it has ever failed in getting oU« while it has already produced the Maple Shade, the Co quette, and the Jersey. . No. 2. Twenty- five acres in fee on the east side of the Allegheny River, opposite the mouth of Big Sandy. • Thi» tract las about forty rods front on the-river, and contains a large amount of boring surface. Oil wells yielding largely are found near this property; among them the hnfrbs, the Hoover; &c. The Company intend to proceed at once to develop this fine property, and feel sanguine of success No,.fik A lease of fifteen years on the ‘William B. Wil son Farm, on Slippery Rock Run, in Lawrence eou aty, Fenua. Nos. 4,5, 0, 7 and 8 are also leases on Slippery Bock Run, contains g four hundred acres in all. They were obtained in April, 1161, by Dr. Egbert, and continue for fifteen years from their date. They secure to the Louse*B all the oil and other minerals contained in the several tracts, with the right to divide and sublet, with all other rights and privileges connected with the busi ness of mining for oii, cob}, and other minerals, and re serve a royalty of only one* eighth of said oil or minerals. The Slippery Rock Territory is a new and only par tially developed oil region; hut the success already ob tained tmre and on the Mahoning River, a few miles west, together with the large quantities of oil found north, sonth, east, and west of It, lead us to hope that it will prove a successful oU region. The Company have already an excellent engine, tools, and all necessary fixtures on ths grounds, with a well partly down»snd will proceed to develop the property as fast as possible. These lands and leases were all selected for oil pur poses by the President of this Company, whose ere it t access in the oil business, sterling integrity, and force of character are too well known to require comment here.
