NgAnyrLLE AND CRAWFORD COUNTY—MECHANI CAL RECORDS OF AN EXTINCT RACE-111110ING FOR OIL FITE lITITGRED TRAILS AGO—FRENCH josp INDIAN OCCUPATIONTHE EARLY SET TV/IRS—THE FIRST LEGAL DECISION. [Special Correspondence of The Press.] MEADTILLIi, Crawford county, Sept. As the shiretown of one of the largest and most valuable of the northwestern counties of Pennsylvania; as the outlet of all the lower portion of the oil regions; as the seat of educa tional institutions long founded and widely known ; and as the location of the main offices and mechanical workshops of one of the most extensive railroads Of the coun try, the town of llleadville is deserving of having its pectiliari ties and its main features set before the public in the columns of the leading journal in Penn eylvanhes leading city. Therefore it is, that On this day of the month of agricultural fairs, of Perry!s victory, and of late peaches, I have resolved to tell those Of you who h a ve never visited Crawford county, what Meadville is, and how she came to be so. For the brief historical resume that fol lows I am partially indebted to an address delivered in this place in February, 1818, by Win. It. Davis, and partially to the recollee lions of sundry of the "oldest inhabitants el for the notes and comments upon Meadville of io.dey, a fair eyesight, aided by a pair of double convex glasses, is sufficient antheelty. Crawford county, in its eastern portion, bears evidence, in common with many other portions of our land, of the residence and pureeits of tt race of beings who preceded the aboriginal savage. The chief of this evideece is found in a large number of excavations in the ground, similar to, the vats of a tan-yard, not far distant from the village of Titusville, end ripen the banks of Oil crock. These exca vations are not simply holes in the &ennui, but arc found to be regularly cased or walled with logs, fitted as for the walls of a lee-cabin, by having the ends squared and dove-tailed together, That these were built Iniedrede Of years ago, is shown by the fact of trees growing, in some eases in side the excavation, and in others upon the mounds of earth thrown up at the sides, which trees indicate a growth of two to three hundred eeare. Another fact which indicates the great length of time which must have elapsed einee these vats were befit, is, that al though the location is now covered with stand_ ingeltuber, there are no stumps remaining to Fatale wile] e the enclosing logs were cut. In connection with the recent wonderful devel opments of oil upon Oil creek, it is interesting to note that Mr. Davis, in hie address of eigh teen years ago, argued. that these vats were originally constructed for thOcollection of the "Seneca which was then eelleete.d be some of the residents upon the creek in much the same manner, vats being dug in the ground, the bottom of which would be covered - with water, the oil being daily Skimmed from the top of the water. Who knows how much Of the oil fever, the greed for " territory," the thirst for leases, the demand for "crude," of these oily days, may be but a re_ petition of what those mysterious and dimly conceived old settlers went through ages ago upon the self-same ground. Not all the light from all the lamps which Oil creek or Pit-hole can ell, can clear away the dark ob- Seerity which envelops those grim 'visitants of the past, whose works are their only record, and who have left not a tablet or hieroglyphic from which to transcribe their story. Leaving, however, the dim and foggy dis tance, and coming down to the tangible records Of the last Century, we rind that the torte. tory now occupied by Crawford county be longed to the Seneca tribt of the Six Nations, they having dispossessed the Fries. A little lever one handled years ago—about 1750—the French rirst made military occupation of this region, having a military route from the Nia gara to Fort Duquesne, at Pittsburg. et Franklin, where French creek unites with the Allegheny, was Venango Fort, and at Le Bmul; (now Waterford, about twenty miles north east from Meadville,) was a mileitry post. French creek, or Yenango ricer, Was used for boating communication between these points, a small fortification having been erected as a sort of half-way place of deposit for goods, upon ground now pied by Dock street in this place. There are still faintly visible the remains of a canal or trench from the creek to this enclosure, and, few years ago, Hiram Richmond, Esq., then a boy attending school, dug out of the bank of the creek an old French musket. It is a noticeable circumstance that the first Anglo Saxon who is known to have ascended French creek, and passed over the ground where now-stands this flourishing town, was George Washington, in his expedition as mes senger from the Governor of the colony of Virginia to the French commandant at La „Ikeuf, to protest against the establishment of aline of French forts from the Lakes to the Ohio. Washington arrived at the mouth of French creek in. December, 1753, and thence proceeded to Le Bceaf, arriving at the latter post on the 11th of that month. In his journal of the expedition he says : "We passed over much good land since we left Venango, and through several eaten- give and very rich meadows, one of which I believe was nearly four miles in length, and considerably wide in some places." This lat ter tract must have been the site upon which Meadville is built, as it will apply to no other portion of the French Creek Vall;.ty, between Waterford and Franklin. The French were compelled to abandon the Occupatior of this section in 1753, and from that time until 1755 it remained in the hands of the Indians alone. In that year surveying parties 'Were sent out by the State to survey and divide the land which had been obtained by treaty, that they might be apportioned among the revolutionary soldiers from Pennsylvania. Two years after this John and David Mead visited this valley with a view to select a home in the wilderness for their families. In May, of the following year, 1785, they brought with them seven other persons, the party of nine constituting the first white aettlera in Crawford county of whom we have any record- One of these men—Thomas Grant—was the first settler in what is now Meadville. Grant, however, remained but a short time, before he returned to the eastern portion of the State. His claim was taken up by David Diem', who ereeted the first house in Mead ville, a dot/hie log house, which, from its favorable location and strength of construc tion, was for a long time used as a block-house to protect the settlers from the attacks of hostile Indians. In the fall of 1778 John and David Mead brought their families from Northumberland, these being the first families located in Crawford county. Authorities dif fer as to the first white child born in this neighborhood, but the most reliable informa tion seems to award that honor to Sarah, daughter of David Mead. Other parties and families came, from time to time, until quite t settlement was established at the junction of Cussewago creek with French creek. These early settlers experienced great clan_ ger from the hostile Indians who surrounded them. A few of these Indians became friendly to the whites, and, in several instances, gave them timely notice of intended attacks upon the settlement. In such cases the women and children yeah - the sent to Franklin hybonts to the protection of the fort at that point. Upon one of these occasions Flying Cloud, one of the fast friends of the settlers, sent a guard of six of his warriors upon each bank of the stream, to guard the descending Canoes from the savage foe. umerous stories are now told of the perils and adventures of the hardy pio neers in their endeavors to protect their homes and their crops. 1n1791 quite a Tillage had grown up at Mead. Dille, and a militia companyfor home defence ("home guards" was no humbug in those days)iwas organized,with Cornelius Van Horne for captain, a block-house being erected upon What is Water street now, and upon the lot ad joining the kagle Tavern. 2111SMOCK4101180 was torn down in 1t 4 98. In August of this Year, one James Dickson, a plucky Scotchman, who had joined the settlement, was passing along the right bank of French creek, above the settlement, and, when near the site of the pre:, sent residence of Wm. Reynolds, Esq., was shot at by five Indians, who were concealed m the bushes. Three balls struck him, but did not entirely disable him. He stood his ground, and called upon his cowardly assailants to come out and give him fair fight. The noise of the guns was heard at the block-house, and a party started to his relief, 'before whom the Indians retreated, and Dickson reached the block-house without further harm. Taylor Randolph, now living a short distance below the town, was one of the party that sallied out to the relief of Dickson. The last attack by the Indians which resulted in the loss of life, within the present limits of Crawford county, was in June, 1751, when James Findlay- and Barnabas McCormick were killed and scalped, about six mlies below Meadville. Of course. with the growih of the communi ty legal coritc.mtions arose. David Mead was the first justice of the peace in Crawford county, and the first case that came before him for trial was an action for debt, in which be himself was pi:timid and one Randolph de fendant. Unfortimateiy, although Crawford county had a justice, it had no constable. But Magistrate I.lrtid supplied the deficiency. He issued the sunlit/ens and served it himself on the defendant. He then tried the case, and Efave judgment for plaintiff—that is, himself. lie Dam Issued an execution and served it himself, by levying on a horse of the de fendant. lie then advertised the horse for sale, stuck up the notices himself, and at the day of sale sold the property and bought it in himself, and then paid the surplus money, over and above his claim, to defendant. Doubtless, if She defendant had appealed from this decision, Justice Mead would have tried the case scam, and sustained the previous decision. Not much chance for Jaundice vs. Jaundice ii, Cho! court, surely. The village of Meadville was laid out in 1751, and Tillage lots sold. So mueirapace has al most unwittingly been occupied with the earlier history Or CraWfOrti countv,that it is ' best to deibr to another letter a sketch of the development of the town from the hamlet of Seventy 'yours ago to the bustling, thriving Tillage whose size, business importance. and population would abundantly justify it in shedding its primitive village robes and don ning the charter and habiliments of a city.

Mr Dana Sin: Tour favor of the 22d inst. has Just come to hand, and in reply I would state that I am in favor of the principles which appear thus far to have governed President Johnson with regard to the Southern States— that is, to allow these States to decide who shall and who shall not be entitled to the right of suffrage. In a few words, lam in favor of returning at the earliest practicable period to a government of civil law. I belieye the true interests of lithe country demand al more eco nomical administration of affairs, and an effort to reduce the national debt, the substitution of civil for military courts, and a more careful observance of the constitutional - rights of States and individuals. If these views are such as will be endorsed by your convention, and if the convention should nominate me for Secretary of State, I shall accept the nomination. I am now at a great distance from the scene of action, and the only mail by which this communication can reach you before the assembling of the convention leaves here in a few hours. With this brief statement I leave the matter in your bands, knowing your friendly feelings toward me, and being assured that you will be governed in some degree at least by these feelings. If the convention should not adopt the platform you anticipate, I trust you will not press my name. I am, very respectfully, your obedient ser vant, 11. W. Steam'. Joan A. GREEN, Jr., Syracuse, N. Y. A Rope-Walker Mobbed—An Exciting Scene. [From the Buffalo Courier, 12th.) We had always supposed that the perilous feats performed. by Ilarrie Leslie were of themselves attended with all the danger ne eess.ary to make them sensational enough for the people ; - but by a very recent experience of the daring funambulist in her Majesty's g,0f.1;; do to "IIOW that we are more liberal in our notions of the thing than they are there. On Friday afternoon last ilr. Leslie thought he would delight the people of Baytield, 0. W., kai the Critud Trunk Railway, and, having stretched his rope across the James, a distance of GOO feet, he proceeded not only to perform his customary feat of walking over it, but also to astonish the natives with a display of his acrobatic skill. At the time appointed he and his bataaee pole started assess the river together, and, upon rsaching the centre of the rope, be enacted all that was set down on the programme ; but, upon nearing the opposite bank, he saw a crowd of men, who were evidently excited, and could hear them Say, " him, he's the devil P 9 "Cut the P.olle. P 3 41 Pitt him down In etc. Leslie continued to move along on his rope, but before he could reach its terminus the slender bridge was eat, and he was allowed to fall a distance of nearly twenty-five feet. In his descent he caught hold of a tree, and thenee rolled down the embankment to the water's edge. Finding that he was pursued by the runians, he made his escape in the woods, and, after travelling about a mile and a half, he mana„led - to get a horse and buggy, with which he reached Sea forth. Here he procured assistance, and upon returning to the vicinity of Daytlel(l, he learned that a man named S. S. Skinner, who Was acting as his agent, had been badly heat en. and that about a dozen of the radians lied been arrested. Upon going back to dea fen he was again beset by some of the gang, but the vigorous use of a loaded horse.whfo made his progress comparatively easy, and he escaped the second time. Ilarrie has dis- I covered that Canada is a hard road to travel, and he will probably avoid Daydeld and the James sines hereafter. DAHLGREWS WATCH 6TOLEN.-A Richmond. correspondent of the Cincinnati Commercial writes: "On Friday night the safe in the Provost Marshal General's office was broken open, and a large amount of money and other valuables were taken. among other things the watch Of Colonel Dahlgren, who was killed during his celebrated raid on Richmond, was taken. it has been only a few flayS since this hidden relic was found by, the detectives, who had been searching for it for months before its whereabouts was discovered. This ornament is represented as being of antique pattern, and of great value. It 14 gold, and studded with diamonds. No clue to the robbery has yet been discovered, though the whole of the mili tary detective force is on the alert for any evi dence which may lead to the recovery of the article and the arrest of the thief or thieves."

MECHANISM." A SINGHLATt CASE.—On. Monday last Bernard Campbell, chief of police of the city of Harrisburg, called upon Mayor Henry in referenee to an interesting case of a young lirl, seventeen years of age, who, on Sunday ast, attempted to commit suicide by drown ing herself in the Susquehanna ; river. river. The girl, upon being taken before Mayor ROUM fortt of Harrisburg,- related her adventures, • stating, among other facts, (for Snell they have proved to be that she was from this city, where' she owns a valuable property, now in the hands of a guardian, and that she had been sent to Harrisburg by a brother who promised t °follow in another train to meet her there. She had been at the depot upon the arrival of the va rious trains, for two or three dam but failed to and the brother among the passengers. Finally;.believing that she was the victim of misplaced confidence, she resolved to droWn her sorrow by drowning herself. With this determination she attempted to terminate her existence in the river, but was prevented, from doing so. She however expressed an intention to commit the fatal deed upon the first opportunity presenting itself. Daring the recital of her adventure the mayor dis covered evidences Of an aberration of mind on the part of the girl, but the manner in which she told her story . convinced his honor that she was quite intelligent, and had seen better days. With a view to frustrate the de signs of the unfortunate girl upon her life, as well as to ascertain the truth of her statement, and render her all possible aid, Mayor Roam fort directed Mr. Campbell to take her in charge and accompany her to this city. She was provided with supper before starting, and from the manner in which she despatched the meal it is believed she was suffering from hunger, having neither money or friends in Harrisburg to relieve her wants. On Sunday night, Officer Campbell and the young woman arrived in this city. Mayor Henry did everything -in his power to assist Mr. Campbell in his search forinfor mation, and the girl's statements were found to be true. She is the owner of a fine mansion on Carpenter street, and the property is under the control of a guardian. It is believed' the girl was sent to Harrisburg by parties inte rested in getting rid of her, that they might become possessed of the property themselves. Illaror Henry is having the MatterthOTOllgh , ly investigated, and it Is thought that by- pro per treatment the girl can soon be restored to her right mind, and when she becomes of age assume possession of the fine mansion, Of which she is the sole owner. Too much praise Mama DO given to Mayor Iteumfort for. the interest taken by him in this matter. Most officials would have been disposed to treat the matter as of no conse quence, and the poor girl would have been driven to a state of incurable necessity, and probably to the consummation of the terrible deed which she was about to cot:urea When discovered by the police, of Harrisburg. PROBABLE HOMICIDE ONE BROTHER STABS A.I,OTHER.—Louis Lueyus, aged twenty three years, a German by birth, and a private in the IE4 United States Artillery of regulars, was admitted into the Pennsylvania Hospital, last evening, abbut eight o'clock, suffering se verely from a stab, said to have been inflicted by his brother Charles. The wound was con sidered mortal. The weapon used was a large dirk or sheath knife, very sharp and pointed, the blade being nearly eight inches long and one and a quarter inches wide. The wound is in the left side, just below the ribs. The blood on the blade shows that it was plunged into the body of the sufferer to the depth of fipven inches. The wounded man has been in the, United States service nearly five years. lie bears the reputation of always being a faithful soldier. His term of service only had a couple of months to run. He arrived in this city between two and three weeks since, on a thirty•days furlough. This docu ment expires on the lath instant. He and his , , brother, Charles Lueyus, a jeweller by trade, had several angry disputes on Tuesday re specting a female that Louis bad visited seve ral times. Last evening, the two brothers met at their father's house, in the vicinity of Diil- StYn and Callowhill streets, and the discussion was renewed. It was spoken in the 6 erman lan guage. The two brothers were finally quieted down under the soothing effects of Rhine wine and lager beer. There were two or three com panions present, and dually the party started on a walk, all difficulty, apparently, hay. in g been settled. After proceeding along Callowhill street, near Third, it is alleged that Charles suddenly prided out the dirk knife and plunged it into Louis, as already stated. The victim gave a groan and fell.
