Persons claiming exemption on the ground
of physical disability, we are informed, will
be examined by the Physician to the Board
of t'urollment for this District at any - time
they may prosent themselves at New.
Brighton prior to the next Draft, which
takes place on the sth of September. Let
all persons interested "take notice and
govern themselves accordingly."
Oil Operations on Dunkard.
We noticed, on a visit to tha Duukard re
region, last week, that several new wells are
being bored, three on the Maple farm and
one on the Ross tract, and another on the
South tract a short distance above. Arrange
ments are also being made, we understand,
to operate in other places at an early day.
The yield of the Wylie well is undiminished,
and with the right kind of pumping and
machinery, it is thought, might be largely
increased. Scarcely a day passes that cap
italists from abroad, and successful operators
tsoin other oil districts, do not visit the Dun
kard country, and almost invariably speak in
high terms of the indications and appear
ances. In a few years we predict, this re
gion will rival Venango in the extent of its
Oil interests and production.
P. S.--We are just informed that the St.
Clair company, on the Maple farm, struck a
fine vein of oil, the other day, at a depth of
585 feet. They will continue to bore, how
ever, until they reach the depth of six hun
dred and twenty feet.
Our Roads.
The roads in this county, with scarcely an
exception, are a disgrace to the people and
authorities. No county in Western Penn
sylvania but has more enterprise in respect
to public highways than ours. In many in
stances, in most of the townships, years are
allowed to pass without the slightest attempt
to improve them. Lazy and imcompetent
supervisors are elected, who do nothing, and
can be urged to nothing, and as a conse
quence, during the Winter and early Spring
months, farmers rarely get to town but on
horseback, and are then K> .bespattered by
mud as to be scarcely recognizable.
It is time this disgraceful state of things
should stop, and that our roads should be
made passable at all seasons. Let the peo
ple shake off their indifference, and see to it
that the servants of their selection show mile
consideration for their interests and conven
ience. A touch of the law would'at do a
bit of harm to indolent supervisors.
The Harvest
The Wheat crop in this county, which
has just been gathered, is by no means an
average one, though it is better than was au
ticipated in the early Spring months. The
oats crop is only tolerably good. Corn looks
well since the late rains, and gives promise
of a fair yield unlesS caught by early frosts.
Apples are abundant, but we have no Peach
es or Plums.
Killed on the Skirmish Line. ,
. We learn that A. Moredock, Co. F, Ist
Pa. Cay., (son of Hufty Moredock, of Frosty
Run,) was recently shot dead by a rebel bul
let whilst doing duty on the skirmish line
near Petersburg, Va. Mr. Moredock was
quite young for a soldier, but is represented
a a.noble,- brave, and generous-hearted boy.
—Republican.
Our Public Schools.
The Summer term of our public schools
closed last week. Since their opening in
the new building, they have been conducted,
as a general thing, in an acceptable manner,
and to the credit alike of Superintendent
and Teachers. They will re-open again in a
few w eeks.
Engine for Sale.
Attention is called to the advertisement
of. an Engine for sale, in another column.—
It is suitable for Oil boring purposes, and
can doubtless be had cheap.
'Newspaper business, by reason
of enhanced wages, high prices, taxation,
&c., is so unprofitable that one of the
most talented assistants of a ; morning
daily inNew York city has thrown down
the pen and opened a broker's office in
wall street; another has turned auction
eer, and a third has gone intc the noun
try to work on a farm. From the weekly
journals there are similar subtractions.
Mechanical labor is getting better and
better pay every day, but brain work is
growing cheaper and cheaper.

At a regular meeting of the Blacksville Ly
ceum, a committee was appointed to draft
resolutions, relative to the decease of our
brother, D. A. M. Golden, who reported the
following :
Whereas, It has pleased Almighty God, in
his inscrutable wisdom, to remove from our
midst, our worthy and beloved brother D.
A. M. Golden, who was au ornament to the
social circle, amiable and benevolent in all his
actions, and whereas his unexpected and
premature departure has cast a shadow of
gloom and sorrow over all who knew him,
but More especially the members of this So
piety, and bringing forcibly to our minds the
great truth that in the midst of lite we are
in death.
Resolved, Ist. That we offer to his bereav
ed brothers and sisters our sincere condo
lence, in the .bereavnient they have sustained,
hoping that their loss is his eternal gain.
Resolved, 'tad. That we 'extend to them
tie hand of sympathy in this dark hour of
their affection, and mingle our tears with
theirs as a tribute of respect to the memory
of him whose spirit has gone to his star-lit
home, Where pain and sorrow never enter.
Resolved, 3d, That while we as a body
condole with them, we commehd them to
the care and protection of Ilim who "tem
pereth the winds to the shorn lamb," who is
the grant comforter in the day at trial, and
who alone can afford consolatioc in the hour
Of death.
Resolved, 4th. That while we as a society,
deeply and sincerely feel the loss we have sus
tained, by the death of our worthy brother,
who was one of the originators of this socie
ty, we are willing.to submit to the will of the
great I Am, in whose hands are the destinies
Of all men.
Resolved, sth. That a copy of the follow_
ing be delivered to kiss Louisa Golden of this
place, and also copies furnished the, Waynes
burg and Morgantown papers for publication.

Blackaville, W. Va., July 80th, 1864.
Some idea of the losses during Grant's
campaign may be gathered from the fact
that many regiments have been nearly an
nihilated. The local papers all over the
country tell the same story concerning or
ganizations that have gone from their re
spective localities. They each think that
their regiments have suffered the most of
any in the army, when the facts are that
nearly all have been "cut up" alike.
The Auburn Advertiser learns, through
private sources, that the 111th has been cox--
solidated with the 125th, 128th and 57th
New York regiments. Less than two years
ago these regiments went out from among
us from eight hundred toa thousand strong.
At least two of them were among the pris
oners taken, by Stonewall Jackson at Har
per's Ferry, and were but little exposed on
the field until the battl of Getty sburg.
Doubtless all of them will receive more or
less recrnits in the meantime. But now we
see that four noble New York regiments,
after less than two years service, have melt
' ediuto one.—[Albany (N. Y.) Argue.
We have the following statement from a
Washington paper of genuine Republican
principles, and which we have no reason to
suspect of exaggerating on the subject.—
There are now abort fifteen thousand sick
and wouided soldiers in the various hospi
tals in this depaitcnent. The total number
of Fatients . in all the military hospitals
throughout the country is about ninety thou
sand. In the camp hospitals it is estimated
there are about fifty timsand, waking a to
tal of one hundred and forty tlmosaud sol
diers incapacitated for service.
silirßarnum's fat woman, Miss Jane
Pishon, formerly exhibited as Miss Jane
Campbell, died at Brookfield, Ct., the
other day.. Her exhibition weight was
680 pounds. Ten men were employed
to get her into her coffin, which was

Antiquity of Petroleum.
It is a popular idea that Col. Drake
was the first man to collect petroleum
and introduce it to the public in its
crude state. • Besides being collected in
small quantities and sold in light par
cels for years on account of its medical
qualities, we have the following con
cerning its earliest story : Herodotus,
ho lived two thousand three hundred
years ago, about the period of the
Prophet Malachi, speaks of the collec
tion of petroleum in the island of Zante,
on the western coast of Greece. Dr.
Chandler, in the early part of the pres
ent century, visited Zante, and found an
oil well in full operation, thus confirm
ing the uarrative of HerOdotus. The
Patriarch Job bad undoubtedly visited
that well or some other one, a flowing
well at that, otherwise he would not
have thought of the 'rock pouring out
rivers of oil."
SAD ACCADENT.-A party of five young
ladies and three young gentlemen,
while out on a sail on Chatauque Lake,
on Tuesday last, discovered that the
boat was rapidly filling and sinking.
Only one of the party was able to swim,
and he after charging the others to re
main in the boat till he could swim
ashore, only about twenty rods distant,
and get a boat for their rescue, jumped
into the water. The others sprang ;if
ter him, in their terror, and three of the
young ladies were drowned. Their
bodies woro recovered the next day.
QUOTA OF TILE SrATE. 7 —The quota of
Pensylvania under the call of the Presi
dent fix• 500,000 additional men is 61,-
600. This announcement has been
made by a letter from Colonel Fry to
Governor Curtin. It is estimated that
after all previous drafts, extra per cen
tage and supplemental damages, there
are not enough able bodied men remain
ing on the rolls of the State . to supply
the number of men assigned as the quo
ta of Pennsylvania.

They are evidently gathered from all

loose breeches and flowing robes. Not
the least part of their bulk is cloth in
which bodies were embalmed and wound
for preservation three thousand years
ago. They are now to be made into paper
