God or our fathers I Thee
Let all their children praise:
The wonders we have lived to see
Surpass the anolent days.
Some age of Truth will riMfc—
Snob was onr feeble thought:
Thou steppest from behind the skits,
And lo t the work is wrought I
All hall, redeeming God i
MweyshaH wrath excel:
And still, where blood has stain’d the sod,
Ammonal Freedom dwell. ■
Thy servant, who renews
This day his solemn vows,
Baptise his soul with heavenly dews.
And crown with fire his brows.
His honest hands uphold,
His will with thine imbue:
And show Thou ohoosest, as of old,
The humble and the true.
, Soon may the word oomo .forth
From Thine almighty throne,
*ijn peace and love, let South and North
Forevermore be one 1”
Curiosities iu Lunacy.
The last report of the Central Ohio Lunatls Asy
lum nives the occupations of all persons admitted in
- twenty, six years. In dividing the number of each
' occupation by the number of the Insane It has fur
nished in that time, we have the following:
fpeculator. ......................1 to Si
■ IrtllLifcuu.m. tO fiS
•Clergymen.-—,• —.l to 84
Students.... ; Ito 87
Tailors—, -.1 to 163

Phytltians I to 184
Termers— ....1 to IBS
fntiheis 1 to 315
locksmiths ..1 to 815
laborers 1 to 431
In this it will he seen that, speculators, artists,
clergymen, and students are badly exposed. It is
Seen, also, that the further we penetrate Into the
working classes .the less insanity there Is. As to
the physicians, we include the regulars and trregu.
lars that are given separately In the report of tae
Asylum.
The report also gives 23 crazy loafers. One would
suppose the number would be far greater, for If any
thing Is calcinated to make one mad, It is having
nothing to do, It may not, however, be so hard on
those who have no disposition to do anything.
The oensus does not give the number of loafers
In the State, so that we cannot estimate
the proportion of Insane. We can estimate the
number, however, • from comparison with other
classes. For example, there are twenty-three in
sane physicians, and of that profession, the eensus
glycs 4,220, Which, decreased by the ratio of 23-to 22,
gives 4,036 as the number if loafers In Ohio I -So
there are 35 Insane clergymen, and the census num
ber Is 2,827; from the ratio as above we have 2,012
loafers ! But there were In the twenty.slx'years,
1,195..0razy farmers, and the oensus gives 233:485
farmers In the State; calculated on this basis, there
Should he 4,116. If we average It, there are about
B,’ooo genuine loafers In Ohio! Suppose It costs
4500 eaoh to maintain them. It t« seen that the do
something classes are taxed 41,600,000 to support
B,COO of the do-nothing class I
In the Item of laborers we added together those
flven In the eensns as “ laborers" and “farmla
orers," as the asylum report does not make that
distinction.
It will also be seen from the above that students
are moob exposed. Young persona Should be nearly
exempt, but the record Is a sorry one for those who
have m charge the health of young men and women -
sent away from heme to school.« There is evidently
Something wrong, that needs reforming.
Sugar Crop of Louisiana.
Naw OfiLEABa, Feb, IT, 1855.
To the Editor of IKe New York Netoe:
I sent to you •* a comparative levlew of the con
dition of New Orleans,” which was published in
your edition of the 12th November, 1854. I stated
ihat the orop of sugar would be about seven thou
sand hogsheads only, and to show that my estimate
was not exaggerated, I now enclose you the result
of the crop, as given by the New Orleans Price
Current, and hoping the information contained in
the enclosed statement may be useful to you, I am,
very respectfully, M.
The total number of plantations under cultivation
within the limits of Louisiana, before the war, ac
cording to Mr. Ohamponter’B valuable work, was
1,281, and of these the grinding on 1,027 was per
formed by steam power, and on the remaining 254
by horse power. Large ontlays have been lnourred
in obtaining machinery and other necessary appa
ratus for grinding the cane and converting the j uice
Into sugar’ on most of these plantations, independ
ently ofthe heavy cost for sugar houses, and other
necessary buildings, and unless great facilities are
accorded to the planters In reclaiming for cultiva
tion the plantations now going entirely to waste, all
these valuable Improvements muse Inevitably go to
ruin. The owners of the plantations, or those hav
ing charge of them, will, otherwise, not only he Irre
trievably mined, but the public at large, and the
Government afeo, will be heavy sufferers, for every
hogshead of sugar made will contribute, to the ex
tent of Its value, In lessening the export of gold to
foreign countries—no small considerations, we ap
prebend, lnthe present position of our affairs.

. Hydrophobia rar Man M. Girard do Callleux,
Inspector general of the different lunatic asylums
for the Department of the Seine, at one of the last
meetings of the Academy of Medicine read a me
moir entitled «On Rabid Hydrophobia considered
as a disease which can spontaneously develop Itself
In Man, under the form of Acnte Febrile Delirium,”
and from which I subjoin the following extracts:
1. If H be true that rabid hydrophobia Is a viru
lent disease , trsnmissible by inoculation from ani
mals to man, it Is equally true that it can develop
Itself, and does so more frequently than it Is be
lieved, spontaneously In man, under the form of
aente febrile delirium, so frequent in lunatic asy
lums.
2. It then affects roan in oharaeter whlob Is proper
to the species, jest as other diseases which manliest
themselves among animals take a peculiar charac
ter in each species, albeit the pecnlar nature of the
affeotlon does sot lose Its Identity.
8. The causes which produce rabid hydrophobia
are—ln the first place, a predisposition tui generis,
and then a multitude of occasional causes,'which,
by their great variety, often lead into mistake on
the true nature of the disease.
4. The similarity of the symptoms, of the pro
gress, of the duration, of the termination, of the
etrnotnial Injuries between'; {rabid hydrophobia
which is communicated, and acute febrile delirium,
so often met with in lunatic asylums, establishes In
these two affections an identity of nature worthy of
the attention of pathologists, and destined to throw
xetr light on such an Interesting subject.—Peris

HANDSOME c6mPUMENT TO THE PENN-
SYLVAN IA 61ST.
The frlendß of the 61st Regiment P. Y. have just
presented the latter with & magnificent regimental
nag. The alat la commandeer by Colonel J. W.
Crosby, -and Is eminently a fighting regiment,
haying been in every battle fought by the Army of
the Potomac, and In every Instance behaved with
the utmost bravery. Its ranks, which had beaome
greatly reduced, have been recruited to their origi
nal standard, and wo doubt not that new deeds of
valor await them to make the regiment worthy
both of the beautiful compliment which has just
been paid to it, afid the high reputation It has al
ready achieved. Ws may state, Incidentally, that
Colonel Crosby has won the highest honors as a
soldier and officer. When the attack was made on
Washington last summer he was lying In the hos
pital from a severe wound In the head : but at the
approach of danger, In defiance of us surgeon’s
advice, he left his bed, took command of a portion
of his regiment, fought them with marked bravery,
but in so doing paid the penalty of an arm He de
clines being connected with the Invalid Corps,
however, and with his remaining arm and new flag
Is now about to lead Us regiment to the front.
While the old flag is borne aloft by this sort of ma
terial Its folds oan never be tarnished.- Thecom
mlttee to which the getting up of this flag was en
trusted, of which Mr. O. B. Barrett is chairman,
deeerve credit for their efforts in behalf of this gal
lant organisation. The flag wIU remain on exUbl
tlon for a few days at the store or Messrs. Evans &
Hassall.

exhibition of trained horse*.
According to announcement, an exhibition of
horse-training, or, more properly, of .trained horses,
took place yesterday afteroo m, at Falrmonnf Park.
The announcement drew together;several hundred
people, and a large number of equipages and eques
trians. A bout half past 4 o’clock the professor made
hit appearance on the Park, in a Jenny Lind Car
riage, accompanied by a lady. The horses, when
brought on the Park, were driven with bits fastened.
In their mouths by moans of a strap passing under
their lower’ jaws.’ No bridle was usedjn driving
them through the streets of the oity*, an cb when they
appeared on the Park, many of the crowd whis
pered amongst themselves that that was nothing
extraordinary: that any horse could be driven that
way, Mo. The Professor drove up to the mansion,'
and, after assisting his lady out of the carriage, an
nounced that he would remove hits and reins,
and guide the horses by the whip alone. The
horses were a beautifully.built pair of Btalltons, one
a dark sorrel, the other a brown. The bits were
removed, and the horses, feeling their'freedom,
shook their heads and snorted as If with a feeling of
their own superiority. The professor then touched
the horses with a whip, and they were off In a pretty
fast trot. On coming in proximity with anything
the Iprofecsor raised his whip gradually, and the
horses, as the whip raised, would slacken cheir pace.
If the whip was raised up suddenly they would stop
immediately. By moving the whip Tram .one side
to the other the horses would turn, always follow
ing the motion‘of the whip. The professor made a
number of beautiful turns at a fast gait, and in nar
row spaces, by means of the whip alone. By turn,
log the whip- in a olrolo both horses would gallop $
holding the whip at a short distance above the
heads of the horses was a signal for them to trot.
The professor then made one horse trot and the
other gallop, alternately; then both trotted by his
signals. It was an excellent exhibition In every
respect.. It Showed to what perteotion the e(loca
tion of the horse could be brought, and that brute
force In. their management Is of little conseqnenoe
when compared with skilful management.
THE LATE BAILWAY ACCIDENT.
The coroner held an Inqncßt, yesterday afternoon,
In the case of Biohard Sorg, aged 14 years, who was
run over, on Saturday night last, at Third and
Beaver streetß, by one of the oars of the Second and

give it to him; X did not want to do so; the' ear did not
step to let a passenger off at Poplar street.
■ Mr. Miller recalled —The conductor strnckthe b-U at
Poplar street and a man jumped off; he then struck the
hell and the car went on.
Robert W. Keen, the conductor, testified that he was
on car Ho. 33 on Saturday evening, and recollected two
boys on the front platform; felt tnsjsrof the car. and
looking around sawtho boy; the oar was stopped; at
ropier street and a lady got out with ease; I was not
aehtnd time; the car had not gone six yards after the
boy was run over before it was stopped; the boys did
not ask ms to stop any place.
Christian Kinder, she driver, testified that he had
teen a driver on the road three yams; recollect aeetnf
;;he boys,’ one on the right and the other os the left; they
did not speak to ms at all: one jumped off and. said coma

Mr. Miller ra-called, and testified that he heard the
bell ringtwice at Poplar street; I cannot say whether

THE POLICE.
THE CENTRAL STATION.
The veterans for General Hancock's army corps are
responding to the patriotic call of ChlefFranklin so ra
pidly that the Central Station is, to some extent, tamed
into a mastering office, where officers and clerks are
busy as bees in making out the muster-rolls. The
rognes; gallery room and the outer doors have a guard,
muskets with fixed bayonets, dee,, giving the place
Quite a military appearance. The table need by the
officer i and clerks is in the centre of the room Look
ing down from the surrounding walls upon the military
group, and the veteran applicants ar* the likenesses of
many thieves and leading Southern traitors, from the
pauper Maury down to Jeff Davis. The traitors occupy
a straight line along the face of the wall. Hanked on one
side by the, celebrated Jersey minister,'the bigamist
who had nine wives, and on the other side by a
murderer; Jeff. Davis looks sour and determined,(this
likeness was taken in Philadelphia in 1863); Letcher, of
Virginia, has s jolly lock; Cobb seems to be smilng;
Stephens has a doubtful expression, as though halting
between two opinions; Wigfall appears as though he
hadjußt arisen after a night’s debauch. They are all
there, lookinguponthe patriotic scene of Uncle Samuel's
veterans being continually mustered into the service
once more.
. There has been no recruiting like the present since the
breaking out of the infamous rebellion.,* Wo excitement
attends the affair. The sueam of'veteran humanity
flows steadily on like still waters. In the course of a
short time the second regiment will be fall. The first
regiment, at Washington, we believe is .already full.
The third regiment will be commenced as soon as the
second is filled. Chief Franklin is daily in the receipt
of more letters than he can read. He entertains the
opinion that it is only a question of time with him to
raise the entire army corps to its fall standard,and then
to proceed and raise still another army corps. At pro*
sent the work certainly goes bravely on.

commencedits active operations about the beginning of
November, 1864. One chief principle upon which its
managers proceeded, hasbeen to carefully avoid t erring
the toteresia of any individual who might have lands
or other oto property to sell, at the expense of the stock
holders On theother hantUrtey have uniformly con
sidered the best Interests of the stockholders u the only,
rule for conducting the concerns of the company, and
have acted in good faith upon this rule,
. The inducements offered in the original prospectuses
and advertisements of the company, and the hick and ■
unspotted character of the gentlemen influential in Its
affaire and in its board of officers, rapidly supplied K
with the funds necessary for a working capital 1 and
With one hundred thousand'dollars in Iti treasury,
competent agents were sent out in the beginning of the
present year, who passed a considerable time in the oil
regions in selecting from tte numerous oil lands and
interests offered to the company such as would afford
the soundest and safest sites for its mining worts. This
was suectssfully accomplished, and the company now
owns interests in lands and other properties, conveyed
to it in fee, by undisputed and certain titles, and paid
. for, to an extent which constitutes an abundant real
estate basis for its actual operations In mining and setl
h lug Petroleum.. A detailed description of these pieces
of property is given further on.
▲ corporation like the New Torkand Liverpool Pe
troleum Company needs, in order to attract and justify
the confidence of the pubPc, manager* of proper cha
racter; sufficient capital, a practical working organisa
tion. sound, business rules, and* lastly, the actual suc
cess which these preliminaries are sure to bring. In ail
these particulars, it is believed that the company stands
in a remarkably high position, A few wards will not
be out of puce on some of these heads.
Mawaobes,—Daniel K Dickinson, its President, owes
his high standing before the people of the United States, \
even mote to his firm and uncompromising honesty,
than to his remarkable ability mi a leading lawyer, a
brilliant speaker, and a wise and safe statesman.
The remaining executive officers of the Company are
I entiemen of experience and good repute in the business
world.
The Board of Trustees Includes, not merely these
gentlemen, and others of good character and standing.
at several whose circumstances constitute a special
and peculiar guarantee for careful and judicious ma»
nagexnent buoh, for instance, are—
J H. Angler, B#q., who is a member of the very rich
and strong firm of drawer, Watson. A Co. t..
L. W. Myeis, Esq., one of the most prominent oil
shippers of the petroleum mart of Titusville, and a gen
tiemanof recognised ability and means;
Dr. W. M. Jennings, of Titusville, whose shrewd
ness and success as a business man have already se
cured him a considerable fortune;
Wm. 3? Newton, Esq., a well* known and cautious
oil operator, and others The gentlemen just specified
live in the oil region, where the interests of the Com
pany are situated, and in their immediate neighbor
hood. Their own means have been to a great ex tent ao
qolred Ik tke oil business. They understand tbe general
principles of basic ess, and the special characteristics of
the oil business in particular. And they own stock In
this company, which stock they hold to r the sake of
the, dividends which they believe it will hereafter,
yield. These cironmetances together give as much car
tainty as human affairs permit, that the transactions
of the Company will be carefully watched, conducted
in-tbe best manner, and with that kind of economy
which only an owner’s eye can enforce.
Capital,—The capital of this Company already ac
tually paid in is ample to carry its mining concerns into
fall operation, baying, as -has been stated, reached
SICO,OOO within the first two months of its existence.and
beieg steadily on the increase by sales of stock now con
stantly made at the par valne of $lO per shaft.
W oekino Orsaxixatiof.—For the. practical nature of
the working organization of tbe Company, the charac
ter of those who have thus far formed and conducted it
must, for the present.'he its guarantee But it may he
mentioned that the Company’s Mining Superintendent,
Hr. H. J. BBBTXS is a practical mining engineer of
laTge experience, decided skill, and high local reputa?
tion Indeed, his employment as mining superin
tendent wa& instantly recognized in the oU regions in
tiie vioinity Of the Company’s lands, as a material en
hancement of the value of the stock, and a proof of the
sacacite of its management. '
Boar*ess Bulbs.—The principle of operating for the
interests of the stockholders xa obvious e&oogh, of
course. But the New Tork and Liverpool Petroleum
Company exemplifies this plan, in a manner which is
believed worthy of stating particularly. This is, the
rule of scattering stock. It is a fixed principle of thia
Company to seek to place its shares rather in tbe hands
of many small holders than a few large ones. It thus
avoids the danger of falling helplessly within the con
trol ol any one or two rich men, who might then pro
ceed to make the Company a mere speculating machine
for their private gain, and might sell it out bodily, or
ruin it, whenever they might choose. The manage rs of
this Company have, in fact, once or twice already actu
ally declined large offers made to them for buying their
stock in great quantities, from an apprehension of the
probability of sneh consequences. It has also adopted
Another beneficial rule, namely: not to hold any pro
perty or interest whatever, which Is not under its own
ereiuBive_ control and management. This avoids de
pending (for instance) lor the . oil froma well, on the
good faith and skill of other parties operating it.
2. DESCRIPTION OP THE PROPERTY OF THE 00M
« PABY. .
’ Very manyparcele of Oil property of different kinds
have already been pressed upon the Company br name,
•rous parlies, of which, however, some were condition,
ally accepted only, and others were withdrawn from its
control by their: holders. In consequence of changes in
the crowded and excited oil laud market. In the exer
cise of their best judgment, accordingly, and with due
regard to the. cons taut fluctuations of that market, as
well as to the profit of their Stock holders, the managers
of the Company, after considering; andofisn controlling
many different parcels of land ana oil interests, have in
theactuai result preferred to obtain, a moderate amount
of accetslble property of assured worth, rather than to .
grasp at unknown lands, possibly of fictitious value,
and thus to become involved in transactions speculative
rather than sound* and likely to lead to endless embar
rassments.
The present possession* of the Company, selected as
above, and considered choice Pieces of property, each as
be insure prompt and considerable dividends, are as
follows:
1* One-half the forking interest in the Borough Wells
on a leasehold estate of an acre and a half, on Meeting
house Bun, and within the .borough of Titusville, and
the same interest in the land of the estate; and in any
other wens sunk on the same. This well is. now puiup
isgfiomsix to ten barrels a day, with an increasing
yield. The oil from this locality, being near the OH
Creek Railroad depot, sells at a much higher rate than
at points where more hauling is necessary, <
2 The whole working interest, being three-fourths
of aU the oil. in a leasehold estate of one acre, known
a* the Kelly lease, in the immediate neighborhood of
the above, on Meeting-house Run, on which estate the
Company has already begun to bore a well.
a 9 The working interest,being one- eighth of the yield
to the Morrison Wail, situated on the Foster Farm, on
Oil Creek, close to the well known Sherman and No
ble wells. This well was some time ago yielding forty
barrels a day, when the flow was stopped by a deposit
of paraffine to the small pipe, and afterward by break
age of machinery. New and improved machinery is in
process 01 adjustment, and a yield of atJeaat eighty bar
rels aday is confidently expected at once
4 The like interest to the Aiken Well,-which is so
near the Morrison as to be operated by the same ma
chinery. This weil ls not so advanced as the Morrison
well, and hasnot yet been tested, but affords aU the in
dications of a good yield of oil
5 The Farter Farm Lease, of the working interest,
being three-quarters of all the oil produced in two acres
of the Park er Farm, within the borough of Titusville.
tMb tract lies immediately on Oil Creek, and Is all ex
cellent boring land One well on this lease, now down
266 feet, shows so much oil that it is to be pumped at
once In the immediate neighborhood are the celebra
ted Continental Weil, long yielding from SO to 100 bar
rels a day, at, d now giving 70 barrels a day; the Hays
Well, which has been steadily yielding oil for two
yearn and the Burtis, Firth, Stewart, and Palmer
Producing Half mails below is the
Drake Well, the first one drilled in the oil region. This
property, to the heart of the mostjorod active part of the
oil country, only half a mile from the Titusville Depot,
on the Oil Creek Railroad, is extremely valuable.
6. The Hart Farm. This is an estate in fee simple, of
eight? eight acres, on Cherry Sun. It Is two miles
from the celebrated Noble SFeU, and two and a half or
three miies is the same direct line from the Egbert
Farm, on which are the celebrated 600 barrel Coquet
Web, the 400-barrel Jersey Well, and the 800 barrel
Maple Shade. Well. It is about two miles from the
United States Company’s new 300 barrel well. Thislanr
is to the centre of the Venango oU region; it is all oil
land, having largely producing wells on every side;
and it affords ample space for stoking two hundred or
more wells. Like other port ions of the Company’s pro
perty. the Hart Farmntight easily fee leased, and would
bitogs!,{KGac acre, besides hailthe oil, Iree fromany
working expense.
7. The • * Whitney Farm,” a fee simple estate of 200
acres, together with an “allowance” of from fifteen to
*5$?J!^ re8 i ; ?l ore » a 1 arge frontage on Oil Creek,
aboVoTittuville, which is admitted by the experts in
the oil business t o he exceedingly desirable oil property,
and which has been secured to the Company on very
advantageous terms. There is a good house and barn
on tiiis land, and it Is worth all that it has cost for agri
cultural purposes merely.' -
& Thai thoroughly well-equipped and complete Pe
troleum EtfinoTy to the centre of the borough of Titus
vill#, immediately adjoining the terminus, and fronting
the depot, of-the Oil Creek - Railroad. now known as the
New Tork and Liverpool Refinery, formerly the Mow
bray Refinery:. This e&fate consists of afcutfive and a
half acres of land-all good oil territory—-and twen
ty aight buildings. It includes a A welling house
wirt twenty-lour room*,, garden, Barn, Icehouse,
stabling, &c ; an efficient and valuable water-power,
equal to eighteen horse power, which saves the whole
expense of a steam engine for running the worts of the
refinery, and which may be easily ased for drilling
wells any where on the estate, operating rooms, tanks,
stilts, pipes, and. other utensils, fixtures, &c , necessary
to constitute a full suit of first- clasi, efficient, labor*sav
ing, safe, and economical refining works; acoopering
and barrel‘making establishment, machine shop,
blacksmith’s shop, «c. .Ac. These works ere capable
of turning out two hundred barrels a week of refined
oil. The worts have been run for four years without
accident, and their product has already an established
reputation in the oil market. Reliable estimates show,
that at If 6 barrels of refined oil a week, the net profits of
running the worts would fee over $420 a week, upon the
land attached to tbis estate there is abundant space for
sinking twenty-five wells, which, by shafting from the
water power, can be done with a saving of the heaviest
Items of the whole, viz., steam engtnes,fael, and oagin
eer’s wares. Pipe for one well has, in fact, already
been driven down sixty feet: the derrick, shafting, &c ,
are all ready, and the wort is <0 be prosecuted at ones. *
negotiations are also now to progress for a valvabte
bract of first- class oillafed, on Pit Hole Creek- near the
f rest Unit id States Well, now flowing from 200 to 800
amis, a day. This is all oil land, -fronting on the
creek, having ample room for a hundred wells, and can
readily beleased at from $l,OOO tos2,oooanacre, be*
side* half the oil.
B..PURPOSES AND PROSPECTS OF, THE COMPANY.
Ihe Company will, if expedient, from time to time,
purchase other lands and ink exeats, but will only do s*
for the sake of the dona fide acquisition of real values,
and with the express purpose of promoting its own
proper business success.
In like manner, although the terms of the charter of
the Company authorize it. to prosecute other kinds of
mining, it entertains no purpose of doing so, preferring
to confine itself to the suitable development of its leglti
mate undertakings already commenced, whose preseat
condition authorizes the expect*'ion of profit enough to
satisfy any reasonable desires. One of the Company's
wells is already.yielding oil; another will do so as soon
as the machinery, .which is only out of order, can he
adjusted; another is to be pumped at once, a* soon as
the tubes can be pat down; another gives every indica
tion of producing oil: and two more are forthwith to he
bored on very promising .territory. Further, as all the
capital of the Company is working capital, wells will
continue to be sunk to any extent which the resu’te
shall justify, until tbe Company’s lanes shall be fully
developed. The Company’s refinery, whick-is beyond
all comparison the largest and best to Titusville, is
alone competent to return a revenue of some $20.0C0 a
year, and this could be doubled by tbe expenditure of
$lO,OOO, The Company could even make large earnings
if it chose upon its real estate, witaoMt itself operating
WAtls at all *
In order fuUy to understand the situation of this Com
pany it mu* t be remembered that the petroleum' busi
ness, ■rastms it seems, is only in Its infancy, and that
the New York and Liverpool Petroleum Company is
one of the earliest occupants of icefield. How great
that field is, how vast the quantity of merchandise to
be procured from its mysterious subterranean deposits,
at a how important are its uses to the industry of the
world, a very few facts will dimly show.
Tbe number of companies organized up to November.
1864, to the three cities of New Tort, Philadelphia,
and Pittsburg, alone amounted to two hundred and
ffitv. During January. 18®, it was reckoned that a
million and a half dollars a day oi capital was passing
tote petroleum-tovestmsnts—an expenditure ranking
With that of the present gigantic war, and doubly won
derful because Incurred at the same time The receipts
for crude petroleum at the wells’ mouth to Western
Pennsylvania alone during: 1864, reached fifty million
dollars. Petroleum is chiefly in demand for lighting,
both a- an oil and as a gas producer, for lubricating
machinery, as fuel, and for purposes in scienos and tbe
art*. Tbe extent of there demands is monstrous, y l l
rapidly increasing. For one of rtem alone, namely,
greasing machinery, in England alone; the manufac
