The large strike at or near Brady'.
Bend, on the line of the Allegheny Val
ley Railroad, has given new life to the
oil-producing trade, and great activity
prevails all along the lire. Prior to that
strike, the signs wore that this spring

vailed when the petroleum fever was at
Its greatest height, bat the Brady busi
ness has scoeilerated things and the osr

unhealthy' oil excitement are already
discoverable. There are many reasons
for believing that there will be more life
in the producing businese than was ever
known before. although ereculatiou will
not run SD high as it did • few yeara
ago. In the interim between the
collapse of '135- and the present time
many large fortunes have been piled
ep by the operators Who Clung
to their wells and steered clear of
speculation, and their legitimate sue
cess encourages others to once more
take to the business. Again,, those
who had their fingers badly burned

operations, have recuperated their ener
gies and accumulated enough money to
go In close quarters with - the greasy
tiger, and timidly and cautiously they
will proceed to puncture the earth wriere•
eciever a yield is promised. Other causes
combine to render safe the prophecy that
the oil producers will be much more
numerous this semen Matted any time
inside of five years, and of course the
production must necessarily beconie
much Inter. There is no busaiess
which, on the capital invested, will pay

hand no possible way to Mei - money
faster, deeper and beyond recovery than
by putting down a dry well. Operators
who go In must bear in mind that the
business la one of chance, or luck if you
please, as much lc-lay as it ever was,
and that it is the long purse, steady, de
termined efforts and indomitable will
slid pluck that secure success..
Da Saturday we visited Brady's Bend,
where the big well was flowing a steady
stream of light petroleum at the rate of
three hundred barrels in twenty-four
hours—or fifty dollars' worth War. hour.
The oil le from a crevasse, or pond,
formed 1,250 feet under the earth in the
third sand rock. How large .this sub
terranean lake may be is a matter of
covitilitare, and on its size entirely de
deeds the quantity of oil which it will
continue to supply. We incline to the
opinion that the well will go down to
leas than thirty barrels inside of
thirty days; • but the extraordinary
strike will occasion a thorough de
velopment of the region and new
,Strikes may be anticipated. The big
well fire was extinguished on Wednes
day night, but was again tired by a fool
lab fellow, who lighted his cigar with a
Lucifer over the gas coming out of the
hole. The second fire was easily extin
guished. Efforts have been made to fish
out the teals, which are fastened at the
bottom of the well, but to no avail. It
is thought that If these annoying plugs
were withdrawn the production would
be twice as large. •
Every train on the Valley road hears
hundreds of persons to Brady's Bsnd
elation, who go out of curiosity and with
desire to pick up leases. The property
owners are quite independent tend dictate
various terms to those willing Mlano.
For instance one man holding fifty acres

may be taken, but It le no wise policy to

among whom, we are glad to observe, Is
Mr. J. WC. Creighton, of the Pennsyl
vania Railroad, have a lease of twenty
one acres, and have refused for it $200,000,
although a few hours prior to striking, It
is said, the whole thing might have been
purchased at 11,500. Derricks are going

Fiktewen of Rev. Dr. J. S. Dickerson.
..Have you made the acquaintance of
Rev. Mr. Dickerson,. we were asked by
the venerable Dr. Loomis, ofLowiaburg,
some five years ago. "He is an shle,
earnest' end genial man, and as hi le
about to remove to Pittsburgh, I want
you to become acquainted with him, for
I know you will like him." We did
make his acquaintance, and have found
him to be all that our scholarly friend
etated. He has done five years service
here—valuable service—and is about to
remove to the "Hub." His worke here
praise him. The mutual attachment of
Pastor and people was shown yesterday.

Mr. Morgan moved that the three can
didatoe having •the largest number of
votes be declared the choice for three
years, and the next three for two years.
Mr. MeAuly, in consideration of the
fact of three of those chosen hiving re
ceived an equal number of votes , offered
an amendment to Mr. Morgan it motion
that the three first 'named on the list be
the choice the three years, and the next
three for two years.
Dr. Gras said -that the large vote Mr.
Hays had received was.a compliment to
that gentlemen, andlt should not be Ig.
nored In the manner It was by Mr. Me-
Auly'a motion.
Mr. MoAnlev Galled attention.to the
fact that when he made the motion that
deprived his friend, Mr. Hays, of the
ompliment, he was not aware who was
named drat on the list; or who had been
complimented by the largest vote.
Mr. Hays' name was on motion placed
t the head of the list, In place of Mr.
Finney, for the three year term.
The name of Mr. Charles Jeremy was'
need in the caucus without his consent;
but was withdrawn by Mr. E. P. Jones,
before half the members had voted, Mr.
Jeremy having received eighten votes.
Had his name not been withdrawn he
would have probably been nominated.
