Napoleonic Authorship.
It is well known that,’though more by
dictation (for which he had a great talent)
than by the pen, the first Napoleon was a
voluminous author. It is not so generally
known that his nephew, the reigning Em
peror of the French, of whose “ History of
Julius Caesar” the first volume has ap
peared in ten difierent languages, has also
written and published largely. He ap
pears, therefore, as competitor for literary
reputation, not as a novice, but as a prac
ticed and even.popular writer. In due
course (for it is not a book to be rapidly
read or lightly considered), we shall have
to determine and declare what Manner of
historical biography he has written, but, in
the mean time, are disposed to think that
our readers may thank us for telling them
what and how much he has previously
placed before the world.
The thj-d Napoleon, chiefly educated
in Switzerland, was a somewhat motive
less person, until a few months after he
had completed Ms tweniy-second year,
while he was leading the life of a quiet
student, in the chateau d’Arenenberg, on
the banks of Lake Constance. The tocsin
of Revolution, loudly crashing the silence
in Jnly, 1830, told the nations that the
Bourbon dynasty had again been pros
trated—told England, wMeh had ex
pended millions of treasure and legions
of men, during a twenty years’ war, for
the sole purpose of restoring these Bour
bons, that all had been useless, for France
had cast them ont for the third and last
time. But, though France refused to per
mit a Bourbon to remain on her soil, she
was equally averse, (or her new rulers
were,) to the return of a Bonaparte,
The request of Loins Napoleon, to re
enter France, where he was horn, being
sternly refused and repulsed, he wandered
through Italy, where he endeavored to
raise a revolution, his elder brother perish
ing In the vain attempt; thence he visited
England, and eventually returned to Ms
mother’s habitation close by Lake Con
stance. <•
The death of Ms cousin, ,The Duke de
.Rbichstadt, (only son of the great Napo
leon, by Mabia-Louisa,) in July, 1832,
placed Louis-NAPOLEONinthe condition of
legal heir to his uncle*"’s imperial dignity,
and not having the opportunity of using Ms
sword, he resolved to influence men’s minds
by his pen. His works belong to two
classes—professional, having been trained
as a soldier, and political—his aim being to
enlisf public sympathy in his' favor by
uniting the democratic and the imperial
parties under the same banner, and holding
it out as the oidy one which could restore
liberty and glory to France,
In July, 1833, Napoleon’s first book
was published, known as Les Ueveries Poli
tiques (“ Political Reveries; consisting of
a Constitutional Project; Two Words to
M. de Chateaubriand about the Duchess de
Berri; and Political and Military Thoughts
upon Switzerland.”) TMs work-showed
thought and knowledge, and Alison
praises the skilful combination wMeh it
presents of much that was real, with every
thing which could be figured that was
alluring, in the maxims of the imperial
Government.
. In 1830, thanbeingcaptain m an artillery
regiment of the Canton of Berne, Napo
leon published a Manuel d' Artillerie, which
at once obtained commendation from com
petent judges. Armand Carrel, writing
about it in Le National of Paris, spoke
highly of its author’s Mgh ability and
elevated character, and said that his
writings showed that profound insight
into these subjects wMeh denoted the
grave stndies-of a great-intelligence of the
time. The attempt at Strasburg—wMeh
was a failure, though very nearly a suc
cess, at one time—to get up a revolt against
the Government of Louis Phillippe, -for
the purpose of restoring the Bonaparte dy
nasty, in the person of Lours Napoleon ;
the subsequent deportation of the leader to
South America; his residence, for some
time, in the United States; Ms return to
Europe; his demission from Switzerland,
at the demand of Louis Phillips, and his
seeking an asylum in England, occupied
his time too much to allow him to write
much. But he was able,- in London, to
produce his Idees Napoleonienv.es, a book
which is dated “Carlton House Terrace,
July, 1839,” and very skilfully represented
the incessent wars which were , the cMef
reproach against the memory of the
great Napoleon, as a temporary and
painful effort - to secure that general
and lasting peace, wMeh was the grand
object of Ms desire. “Napoleon,”
it was said, “was always the friend of
peace ; he was the protector of commerce
and industry: it was for this he waged war
with England, the eternal oppressor of
both; he was the civilizer of the world.;
the most pacific and liberal sovereign that
ever reigned. It was for the interests of
real freedom that he suppressed the Tri
bunate, its worst enemy, and chased the
deputies who betrayed it through the win
dows, of St. Qloud. if he went to Moscow?
it was that he might conquer the peace of
the world in the Kremlin ; if he sacrificed
millions of soldiers, it was because that
peace could be purchased at no lower
price.”
The object of Pee Idees Napoleoniennes
undoubtedly was to revive an interest, in
France, about the Imperial dynasty, and
Louis Bonaparte also wrote a great
deal, to help that object, in a jour
nal called Le Capitole, published in
Paris, to extend his opinions and populari
ty. Not many months after the publication
of his' book, Louis Philipps, at the sug
gestion of Thiers, Ms minister, (who pro
bably wanted to roundoff his History of
the Consulate and the Empire with grand
scenic effects,) requested England to sur
render the mortal remains of the first Na
poleon, that they might be placed in
French soil—to use the words in his will,
that they might repose on the banks of the
Seine, among the French people, whom-he
had loved so well. Between the concession
by England and the interment in the Church
of St. Louis in the Hotel des Invalides at
Paris, (December, 1840,) Louis Napoleon
had made a second attempt to try what the
magic of Ms name might effect, agaimst
the rule of Louis Phillippe, who had be
come very unpopular. TMs enterprise,
wMeh had Boulogne for its locality, during
a few hours of the 6th of August, 1840,
was a failure, and the end was that Louis
Napoleon was arrested, tried, convicted,
and sentenced to perpetual imprisonment,
in the fortress of Ham, where he was con
fined in the same apartments occupied by
Prince Policnac, some years before.
Louis Napoleon was thirty-two years
old when he entered Ms prison, where he
lived for six years in strict, almost close
captivity—the same time, precisely, that
his uncle had been in St. Helena. He was
not Ml solitary—General Montholon and
Dr. Conneau being Ms fellow-prisoners.
He accepted Ms captivity-with a mixture
Of resignation and anger, but hever aban
doned hope. He conversed, through books,
with the illustrious of all times. It may
have been a fortunate calamity which took
Mm away from action, and" for a Beason
chained Mm to thought, study, and reflec
tion. His mind became disciplined, and
better fitted for the future great role he was
to play upon the world’s stage. Beranger,
the lyrist of liberty, writing to the illus
trious captive, prayed that “he might one
day be in a situation to consecrate to their
PHILADELPHIA, THURSDAY, MAY 4, 1865.
common country the fruit ,of the expe
rience he bad acquired, and would yet at
tain." Chateaubriand, the royalist, re
specting courage in misfortune, wrote to;
him (June, 1844), congratulated him on
haying, in his misfortunes, studied with
as much sagacity as force the causes of a re
volution which,in modern Europe,had open
ed the career of royal calamities. “ 'jour,
love of liberty,” he said, "your courage,;
and your sufferings, would give you every
claim to my support, if, to be worthy of
your esteem, I did not feel that I ought to'
remain faithful to the misfortunes of
Henry V., as I am to the glory of Napo
leon.” .
The captive of Ham escaped from his;
prison on the 25th May, 1846—but tins
event created little sensation in Paris.:
Lotos Napoleon, while in Ham chiefly
devoted himself to the historical, political, 1
and social studies. In 1844, he carried his
democratic principles so far, that he em
braced and strenuously supported those of
the Socialists and wrote many articles m
the Journal du Progres du Pas de Calais,
enforcing their views, which were after
wards collected in a pamphlet entitled
Extinction du Pauperisms. His style, as a
writer, is dignified and clear* Hts princi
pal productions, at Ham; are Am Manes,
de VEmpereur, in 450/ Mote sur Its
amorces fuliminantes et sur les atte
lages f in Bvo, 1841; Fragments Jhstonques,
on which the fall of the Stuarts is com
pared, with that of Louis Philippe, then
generally predicted; Analyse de la ques*
tion de Suisse , which, as an Helvetian citi
zen, lie thoroughly understood ; Bcponse ft
M. de Lamartine, the poet having written
verses attacking Napoleon ;] Quelques
mots Sur Joseph Napoleon Bonaparte; Du
Systems Electoral; V Union fait la force,
which is .the motto of Belgium ; Nos Colo
nies dans V Ocean Pacifiqw, on the pro
posed annexion of thfi Marquesas Islands
to France; Analyse de la question des Sucres,
in which sugar and politics are discussed;
Eludes maihematiques de Napoleon; La
Traits des Negros, strongly calling for the
abolition of Slavery; Opinion de VEmpe
rexvr sur rapports de la France avec les
puissances del’Europe, which treats of the
relations of France with other great Pow
ers ; V Opposition, a severe attack published
in April, 1848, on the family policy of
Louis Philippe ; A quoi tiennent les destv,
necs des Empires, an episode of the Hun
dred Days; La Paix au la Guerre, in
which it is contended the peace and
the cultivation of its arts is the true
policy of France; Des Comerisuieurs et
Espartero, indicating that the “ peace-at
any-price” policy is not worthy of any na
tion ; Letlre a M. Chapuys Montlaville, be
ing a reply to a letter addressed to the same
person by Lamartine,, and contains an ad
mission that the 18th Brmnaire was a fla
grant violation of the year 111,, but that
it saved the republic, and was imperatively
necessary. A few pamphlets of. small im-.
portance may be added to this list, but being
only newspaper articles, It is not necessary
to name them here. The last work of im
portance emanating from Louis Napoleon,
while at Ham, was the Extinction du Paur
perisme, written in 1844. ;
The enumeration of his writings, which
we give here, has been compiled from a
list, corrected by Napoleon himself* which
we have had the advantage of consulting".
The works of Napoleon 111, (however,
not including some named above,) have,
been collected and appeared, in. 1804-186?,
in tour oototvo volumes. Another volume,
comprising especially his publications, with
some previously inedited fragments, on Ar
tillery, appeared in 1856.
It will be seen that Napoleon is a vo
luminous and practised writer. Familiar
with the living as well as the dead lan-'
guages, his favorite studies have been histo
rical, and he has devoted much of the small
leisure that the cares of Empire have given
him to writing that life of Julius (Lesar
the first volume of which (translated into
English, by Thomas Weight, by the au
thor’s special appointment) has been pub
lished by Hakfeb & Brothers, as our read
ers are well aware. We have yet to notice ’
the book.itself—from its subject, its' author,
and its evident purpose, the most curious,
as - well as important and interesting, ever
written by a monarch. J

Wo meet under tie gloom or a calamity which
darkens down over the minds of good men in all
civil society, as the fearful fid tugs travel over sea,
over land, from country to country, like the shadow
of an unealonlated eclipse over the planet. Old as
history is, and manifold as are its tragedies, I
dcutt if any death has caused go much pain to
mankind as this has caused, or will cause, on its an
nouncement ; and this, not so much because nations
are by modern arts brought so oloaeiy together as
because of the mysterious hopes and fears which,
In the present day, are connected with the name
and institutions of America.
In this eonntry, on Saturday, every one was
struck dumb, and saw, at first, only deep below
deep, as he meditated on the ghastly blow. And,
perhaps, at this hour, when the coffin which con
tains Che dust of the President sets forward on its
long march through mourning States, on its way to
Mb home in Illinois, we might well be silent, and
Buffer the awful voices of the time to thunder to
us. Yes, but that first despair was grief; tho man
was not so to be mourned. He was the most active
and hopeful of men; and his work had not perished;
bnt acclamations or praise for thetaskhohad ac
complished burst out into a song of triumph, whleh
even tears for his death cannot keep down.
The President stood before us a man of the people.
He was thoroughly American, had never crossed the
sea, had never been spoiled by English insularity,
or French dissipation; a quite native, aboriginal
man, as an aeortr from the oak; no aping of fo
reigners, no frivolous accomplishments, Kentuckian
born, working on a farm, a flAtboatman, a captain
"m the Blackhawk war, a country lawyer, a Repre
sentative in the rural Legislature of Illinois—on
such modest foundations the broad struoture of his
fame was laid. How slowly, and yet by happily
prepared steps, he came to his place.
» * * * * * *
A plain man of tho people, an extraordinary for
tune attended him. Lord Bacon says, •> Manifest
virtues procure reputation: occult ones, fortune.”
He offered no shining qualities at the first encoun
ter ; he did not offend by superiority. He had a
face and manner whtoh disarmed suspicion, which
Implred confidence, which confirmed good-will. He
was a man without vices. He had a strong sense of
duty which It was very easy for him to obey* Then
he bad what farmers call a long head; was excel
lent in working out tko sum for himself; In arguing
hia case and convincing you fairly and firmly.
Then it turned out that he was a great worker;
had prodigious faculty of performance; worked
easily. A good worker Is so rare; everybody has
acme disabling quality. In a host of young men
that start together, and promise so many brilliant
leaders for the next age, e aoh falls on trial; one by
bad health, one by oonoolt or by love of pleasure, or
By lethargy, or by an hasty temper—each has some
disqualifying fault that throws him out of the ca

ful, persistent, all right for labor, and liked nothing
so well.
Then he had a vast good-nature, which made him
tolerant and accessible to all; fair-minded, leaning
to the claim of the petitioner; affable, and not sen
sible to the affliction which the innumerable visits
paid to him, when President, would have brought
to any one else. And how this good-nature became
a noble humanity, in many a tragic case whioh the
events of the war brought to him, every one will
remember, and with what lnoreaslng tenderness he
dealt, when a whole race was thrown on his com
passion. The poor negro saia of him, on an im

His occupying the chair of State was a triumph of
the good sense of mankind and of the pubiio con
science. This middle-class country had got a middle
class President, at last. Yes, in manners, sympa
thies, but not in powers, for his powers were supe
rior. His mind mastered the problem of the day;
and as the problem grew so did his comprehension
of it. Rarely was man so fitted to the event. In the
midst of fears and jealousies, in the Babel of coun
sels and parties, this man wrought Incessantly, with
all his might and all Ms honesty, laboring to find
"bat the people wanted, and how to obtain that. It
cannot be said there Is any exaggeration of Ms worth.
11 ever a man wsb fairly tea ted," he was. Thera was
no lack of resistance, nor of slander, nor of rldloule.
The times have allowed no State secret*; the nation
has been In suoh a ferment, such multitudes had to
be trusted, that no eeorot could be kept. Every door
was ajar, and we know all that befel. *
Tien, what an occasion was the whirlwind of the
war. Here was place for no holiday magistrate, ho
fair -weather sailor; the new pilot was hurried to
the trim In a tornado. In four years, four yoara of
battle-days—hts endurance, his fertility of resources,
his magnanimity, were Borely tried and never found
wanting. There, by his courage, his justice, his
even temper, his fertile counsel, his humanity, he
took an heroie figure in the centre of an heroic
epoch. He is tho true history of the American
people in hie time. Step by step he walked before
•hern; slow with their slowness, quickening Ms
msroh by theirs; the true representative of this
continent; an entirely pubiio man; father of Ms
country, the pnlseof twenty millions throbbing in
his heart, the thought of their minds articulated
by Ms tongue. *»***:
The ancients believed in a serene and beautiful
Genius which ruled In the affairs of nations; which,
will a slow, but item justice, carried forward the
fortunes of certain chosen houses, weeding out
single c (fenders, or offending families, and securing
at last the firm prosperity of the favoritesof Heaven.
It was too narrow a view of the Eternal Nemesis.
There Is a eerene Providence which rules the fate of
nations, which makes little account of time, little Of

Fortran or President X-lneoln,
One of the most interesting photographs that wo
ever saw, is entitled “Abraham Lincoln as a
Father,” and has just been published by Mr.
Charles Desflveri 1229 Chestnut street. The ori
ginal was presented by the Martyr-President him
self to G.; Gumpert, Esq., of PhlladelpMa, and.
therefore may he considered, if only on that aooount
as a portrait approved by its Illustrious and lament
ed subjeofe. Independent of this, it is recognised as
a pleasing and accurate resemblanoe by ex-Govor
nor Pollock, the Rev. Br. Furness, Thomas W.
Sweeney, Esq, and, indeed, by all familiar with
late President who have had the opportunity of ex
amining. it. The position Is singular, easy, and na
tural, Mr. Llnooln, seated in a massive arm chair,
supports a large volume, apparently a photo
graph album, on Ms crossed knee, and, with his
head slightly declined towards tho book, and wear
ing a light pair of spectacles, is examining it, with
an - air of Attention and thought. By his side, also
occupied ]h looking through the volume, stands Ms
yonng son Thomas, familiarly called •< Tad,” now
so fearfully orphaned. The lad’s face Is foreshort

touching In its truth and simplicity, and Mr. Desil

tho most-interesting trait of the illustrious dead.

Sin; Booth’s wound and death were so psouliar
that they, deserve notice and attention. A post
mortem examination was made, but tho »buH has
not been publisled; yet sufficient is known to on.
able us to state what were tha parts injured, Ms
Eulieiinga-and Ms painiul, horrid death.
The baif from the cavalry revolver entered on the
left slue, back of tbe head and below It, and passed
out on the right side. He fell a helpless mass, un
able to move, exclaiming: “ I am finished l” He
was carried out of the burning barn and laid upon
the grass, and survived the wound four hours. He
requested several times to be turned or moved from
side to side, on Ms stomach, and asked to see his
hands. When raised, he gazed upon the helpless
dead mombere exclaiming, “ Useless—useless,” and
asked more than once of those about Mm “to kill
him.” thus to end Ms pain and sufferings.
From thole statements from those who were about
him. and witnessed the “fnssy doctor” probe his
wound, we know that he had a wound of the spinal
cord, about the Beeond cervical vertebim, which was
doubtless fracture S seh a wound would produce
complete paralysis of the arms, legs, and lower
portion of the trunk, wMle respiration curd the
action of the heart would continue, as tho nerves
which proceed to those organs pass off from the
cranium, and rot from the spinal oord. The mind
waselearand undlsturoed, save from the shook of
the wound and pain: hut the brain was Uninjured.
It was a living active mind, with a dead, helpless
bo v with tho most excruciating, agonizing pala
that a human body ean be subject to. We ones saw
an offioer With a similar wound, lower down in the
spine his suffer ngs were terrible, and he prayed
and implored all about Mm to “kill him,” and end
his misery.:
In Booths case thenmves of organic life, rcspL
ration and ciro lotion wore uninjured; and the
only muscles over whioh he oould exert any volition
were those of the head andface. From the moment
tho ball struck him he was dead and helpless, with
’a mind dear, In intense suffering, a living witness
of his own just punishment for Ms atrocious deed.
Was there not the avenging hand.of God upon him
fr< m the moment he e wlaimed, upon the stage of
F< rd’s Theatre “lam avenged!” In the leap upon
■ the stage theffbulse. the small bone of the leg, was
fraotnred. -For ten days and nights the forests and
swamps were his homo, with pain, .and dread, and
anguish. Wnon discovered the barn was fired;
before him a sea of flame, ready to engulf him;
bevond Ihe grave a still greater sea of flame await'
Mg him ; and at that instant he rcodved his pecu

Camp 6th PamrA. Cavalry,
Nbar Riohmokd, May 1,1865,
The regiment broke camp on the afternoon of the
28th of March, near New Market Heights, and
crossed the James and Appomattox rivers, halted
for the night In the vicinity of the Wells House—
the total strength of regiment 21 commissioned offi
cers and 640 enlisted men, under command of Lieut.
Col. Kleinz. On tho-moming of the 29th we marched
to a point on the left of Petersburg, where we
halted until evening, when we again took up the
march, and, after six hours’ marching, bivouacked
in the rear of the army of the Potomac, and re
mained doing picket until the morning of April Ist,
when we started at daylight and marched to Din
widdle Court House, and here we came npon the
rebels. The 11th Pennsylvania Cavalry advanced
on the right, and were attacked. Colonel sp»ar
was wounded, and Major Munro killed, and
several others slightly wounded. We then threw
out a. strong skirmish line, and they were ad
vanced and drove the rebels, when, the lead horses
coming up, the men were all mounted, and tho sth
Corps advancing, we charged down npon the flank
of Fits Hugh Lee’s and Picket’s 'divisions of.
o&valry and Infantry, and routed them, with a IoS3
of about 6,000 prisoners and a large number of killed
and wounded. We changed through a thick woods,
and created suoh a panic in their ranks that they
Shrew their aims down and tried to get away as
fast as possible; bnt we had them entirely sur
rounded, and the men of the sth Corps gathered
them In. No loss In the regiment. Alter the
fight we marched in the rear of the sth Corps
and bivouacked about six miles beyond the court
house. The; nert day (Sunday) we were or
dered down to Gravelly Ford, in possession of the
enemy, when companies I, H, and C were ordered
to advance, which was done, and they drove the
enemy to the opposite side of the Ford, where they
had rifle pits constructed. About noon the regi
ment wbs dismounted, aad ordered to the support
or the companies at the Ford; bnt owing to the
nature of the position, whioh allowed but a few men
to operate effectually, did not succeed In driving
the enemy ttom their position. It was here that
Silas Hough, of M company, was killed, and Pat-'
terson and Beltings, of K company, wounded.
The command to - which the regiment is attached
was then ordered to report to General Merritt,
marched acre's the Soutbslde Railroad, about two
miles above Ford’s Station, and halted for the
night about four miles above the railroad. On tho
morning of the 3d, we started at daylight, and
marched to Leonard’s Mills, on the Appomattox,
for "the purpore of gathering np the enemy,
who were reported to be roaming through the
woods In a demoralized oondltlon. We then re
turned, joined the main body, and marobed to
Beverly Bridge, across the Appomattox, whioh we
found to have been destroyed by the enemy, and
encamped for the night. On tho morning of the 4th
we started at daylight, and striking the Amelia
Court House road, marched in indirection of the
court houso until wo came to Deep Creek, whore the
enemy disputed oar advanee, but were forced to
give way. Resuming ourmaroh, we reached a point
within a mile of the court honse, where the enemy
again made a Btand, and, alter a skirmish, finding
them in strong force and well posted, we withdrew
a short distance-and encamped. We remained in
camp until the afternoon of the 6th, when tho 2d
Brigade waaordered to erosß the railroad, the enemy
having been reported to have retired. Our men ware ,
forced back again, thelst Maryland Regiment losing i
fifty men. We then fell back some three miles find .
enosmped for the night. Tho next day we rejoined
the division of Gen. Merritt, and started with him
In the direction of Danville, when we were ordered
to teport to Gen. Ord, commanding Army of tho
James, at Buikesyllle, which place we reached at.
nightfall, and encamped. On the 7th we marched
to Prince Edward Court House, and oharglng into
the place, captured twenty of the enemy. Then ad
vancing some five miles beyond the Court House,
we encamped. TW started at sA.M. on the morn
ing of the Bth, and struck the Lynehburg Eailroßid,
passing through Prospect, Famplin, and Evergreen
stations. At the latter station we assisted In the
saptnre of font trains filled with commissary and
quartermaster stores. We went Into camp at mid
night, In the vlolnlty of Appomattox Court House.
Started at daybreak, and marched In tho direction
of the Court House; took np a position at a farm'
honse, and threw out a line or skirmishers. The
enemy came out of the woods in our front in three
lines of battle, and the oommand was forced
back. In the afternoon wo advanced again, and,
tbe sth, 24th, and 25th Corps coming up, we drove
tho enemy from the position they originally held,
when they displayed a flag of truce along their
lines, and at four o’clock In the afternoon General
Lee surrendered his entire army.
The oommand of cavalry under General McKen
zie, consisting of the sth ana lith-Pennsylvania, Ist
Maryland, and Ist District or Columbia, had the ho
nor of opening the fight in the morning, and helping
to wind up tbe rebel Amy in Virginia on the after
noon of April9th, 1806, It would take up too much
room to mention in detail the officers of the regi
ment, the majority of them being ftom Phlladol
pMa, but their braveiy and gallantry Is unquestion
able. Colonel West, who oommanded a brigade
nhen we started, resumed the oommand of tho regi
ment on the sth of the month, and well did he com
mand It and eondnot it through the campaign,
through which he was so ably assisted by the gallant
Lieutenant Colonel Kleinz, and Lieutenant George
Smith, of “ G ” Company, who was acting adjutant
of the regiment. They all belong to PhlladelpMa.

of the Commercial Bank. The due-bill for over
$200,000, said to have been given by a prominent
merchant of this city to Mr. Clarke, is said by the
former to be a forgery. We understand the bank
intends to have the matter Investigated in the
courts of law.

The Bondon Times city article of April 22 has the
following:
“ The advices from Frankrort mention that inst
before the receipt of the news from Richmond
American bonds were very dull at 62, or five per
cent, below New York prices, whence they instantly
went to 85%, 0.7. d subsequently f 069. The transactions
were extremely heavy, and there were buyers even on
London, Brussels, and Betlin account. The leading
capitalists have availed themselves of the oppor
tunity to sell large sums, but small Investorland
speculators, with less knowledge, have taken them
up. Money continues abundant in Frankfort. Aus
trian stocks are firm, and those payable in currency
have improved, as the exchangeon Vienna has risen
to 108%, being, at tbe present rate of silver, only
six per cent, below par. Still there Is not much
doing In them, os the dealers on the Bourse are ab
sorbed in American transactions.”
A correspondent of tho Cincinnati Commercial, whs
has lately traversed and personally Inspected almost
all the oil regions of Southern Ohio toWestVir
gtnia,atates the results of his observations. The
annual yield of the former, allowing 300 barrels as
the aggregate dally product, he estimated at more
than $2,000,000. West Virginia Is estimated to yield
an equal amount, but the product, being less valu
able, 1b put down at $1,314, 000 per annum. The
writer says :
It Is simply Impossible to state exactly the num
ber of engines that are being scattered along the
streams, this spring, In these oil regions, or to say
how many new wells will be bored during the pre
sent summer; but by judging from particular locali
ties an estimate can behnade that will approximate
the truth. In Ohio the estimate win run somewhat
thus:
Meigs county-
Athens county.
Morgan county
Washington county.'...
Noble county-
Other counties.....
20
......... 40
5O
.......... 70
Total In Southern OMo
This disparity between the number of engines and
the number of wells Is owing to tho fast that very
many wells are being put down by spring poles, that
being quite as economical for the first 450 feet. In
Virginia very few wells are being sunk without en
gines. 'Without enumerating the counties In Vir
ginia, I would estimate the number of engines
there at 500, and the number of wells at 600. Toe
average cost of engines Is not far from $2,004
while the boring tools and other outlays for putting
down a well will amount to *3OO for each well, with
a grand total of 770 engines, and 1.170 wells In pro
gress m these oil regions. We And that exclusive
of the cost of the land, there is a capital of *1 ; 810,000
invested In engines, and *361.000 In other necessary
outlays, making in all *1,891,000. With this as a
basis, and remembering that the cost of the land Is
very many times greater, the reader caa' have
some Idea of the Immense amount of capital and the
great number of men employed In the business.

Tie customs revenue of the United States, for tue
fisoalyear,nowdrawing toltseloae,was estimated
by the Secretary of the Treasury, In his annual re
port to Congress last December, at seventy.turn mil.
liens in gold. He had then only the actual receipts
Of the first quarter of the year—July 1,1861, to Sap
tember so, 1864—as the basis of his calculation. Ac
cording to the-Hew York Times, these receipts were
$19,000,000, which, multiplied by four, would have
authorized an estlmate.of $78,000,000 for the year,
as against SSB 000,000 gold interest charge for the
year on the funded pnblfo debt. But Mt. Hessen
den made more than due allowance for the appre
hended falling off through the second and third
quarters, and even for the last quarter. As ten
months of the fiscal year have now elapsed,
producing at the port of Now York $45,160 617,
equal, on the proportion of 72 per Cent of the whole,
to a total of $63,140,000 for the ten months at all the
points, we are justified In believing that the Secr
etary’s estimate for tbe year ending June so mill be
exceeded by from six to eight millions. In other
words, the Customs receipts. In gold, of the fiscal
year 1884, will be from $78,000,000 to'sBo, ooo,ooo.
The immediate Improved look of the import trade,
and the prospect of a farther Increase as the pur
suits of peace are restored to the Southern States
might authorize even a larger calculation. The fol
lowing are the Customs reoelved In gold, ana gold
interest paid out at New York, the office orthe
Treasury, sinde the beginning of the eurrent fiscal
year to the Ist May instant:
