Titusville Sept. 26, 1865.
Friend Cobb: Titusville is still aflbgt. There
is a good deal of petroleum about, but it emails
badly. Everything ie oilous—if not greasy :
in fact, too greasy.—l find it difficult to stand,
not to mention ihoving. Venango County seems
to be suffering .frith oil on the stomach, and the
visible result seems to be quite as emetiaal as a
dose of’squills or lobelia. This whne country
looks like a great gigantic card of
only the holes in the paper arepep&r ite, though
near together, while here, they run; Aether.—
Erie and Crawford counties are p;; lured on
almost every acre, hot oil has not found,
in paying quantities except in
corner of Crawford; but a nombft of wells
have spouted forth water, copiously‘land quite
as harmlessly and valulessly as a wi ale’s spout
ing. AtCorrythey permit stomj .il to salute
you in the streets, and yon have t<f keep your
binnacle lights well trimmed to shier clear of
them, JTbeplace grows, nevertheless, like mag
ic.- At Titusville, a man of pugnacious pro
pensities, can find opportunities to pitch in to
his heart’s content—mud is promiscuous and
übiquitous; the stumps and cordfroy walks
have sunk, and now rest on the fiftt layer of
on rock, —a man ecu walk on ri mii’ by diving,
but a lady, if she wears hoops, bai'better de
cline. "Sink or swim, survive car perish,"
applies well to this place. The bottom has fall
en out of the roads long ago,—mod; is Intermin
able. The omnipresent yankee is here—seek
ing whom ho may devour, by way 5f a sell.—
The population is somewhat -amalgamated;
representing every elmentjever known to Pike's
Peak. Bald heads, side-whisker f and long
noses; top boots, .Jews, and P tarisees, pre
dominate. But the atmosphere lb tt bangs over
this delightful spot is oooipcssed of the.,
vilest, the most vililanuus smelling gases
that ever were inhaled by mad. ' Mosquitoes
are bred here on the principle of - becoming a
grandfather twenty-four honrs after birth—the
adjacent scenery being eo truly ijoßal, that [the
propagation of the species.is less a matter of
taste than necessity. Every mosquito thinks
it most dig tor oil. Another. feature of the
-piece, is the peculiar looking, don color
that prevodes every where— eveli the tables,
Ahioh are as innocent of anything rich as a
pan of ekim milk; T. mean of .coni' ee the hotels,
wbioh includes every other boose'.
Pitbole is the Mecca of oil men; the great
center and nuolens of excitement, oil, and spec
ulators. Kerosine throbs in every mud hole
and waits only to besoraped up. Subterraneous
caverns no doubt, boil with it, and it bubbles
from boles in the ground if you happen to make
the holes in the right place. Fortunes change
hands every day; and the luokj-foolis as apt
to get them as the wise savpa,-—and judging
from their manner of spending them; I should
think apter. Pithole is a shanty city in the
wilderness, a fungus growth—contains 11,000
inhabitants, and not six months .(old 1 Really,
wonder's have not ceased 1 It -is eleven miles
from Titusville, and connected by-the “ slough
of desppd." Hotel accomodations are as
roomy as a lodge in some “ vpsfl wilderness,"
and about as airy. I pot up jfe-'tbe “ Chase
House," —rightly named; for the bed-bugs

morning I Surely civilization seifds westward ;

The “U. S. Well," one of . idiP'best in this
region, flowing nearly 1,000- liarre!s r pter'' day,
is said to have changed bands-lately for the
snog little sum of $2,000,00(11). {Well dona U
Old Hsrvey Copeland was bornin Vermont;
he is consequently a Yankee? took up a
farm in this Wild place whan" a' boy,—cleared
it np, and still lives in his original log cabin,
and won’t live anywhere else. He lately leas
ed his farm to the American Illuminating Oil
Company for mining purposes; but be retains
the privilege of living on and working the farm
—which be will not sell for tort’or money.—
He also retains one fourth of ~jhe oil—and
.there are seven good wells of lit.''He was
offered $750,000 fbr hie entire interest in the
farm as it now stands; but-be refused. Ohly
'Si day or two ago he was driving a mud-sled,
drawn by oxen, down one of the streets, and
as be passed through the mud bqles where the*
sled was at times almost entirely submerged,
who would have imagined Asf this roughly
'dad, unsophisticated, seedy-l ioking old fellow,
' was a veritable millionaire?,,' 'flood for you,
Harvey 1 if you want to waliuw'in the mud,—
who is going to prevent it?. 3 life a man with
some independence who does nol
consider himself bound to lie a dandy, simply
because he happens to be, worth something 1
As he drove along, be was asked why be refus
ed that $760,000. “ What is the use,” said
he, “of $750,000 to me without a farm ? I
reckon I did'nt buy that farm'to sell it again..
I’m settled down with my family, and what
oonld I do if I soldi the placg? . It’s & good
farm—a good well oj water oi it—l can raise
what garden eass we want, atd I’m going to
.enjoy it. $750,000 is no use me without the
farm.” Rather an eccentric:! id man. I hope
no sharper will get hie farm ji otn bun.
At Petroleum Center a sht.fi,§ by 17 feet is
being sunk (and is now dowii 'TD feet) for the
purpose of examining the geological formation,
and dispelling the one thousand and one, oil
theories. It is in the midst of "a rich oil dis
trict, and they are down far enough to feel
pretty, sure that the true theory lies between
these -two ; First, that the oily substance cover
ging vaat.extont* of the Pacific OEean, which is
the chief food for whales, is, carried by the
ocean currents to the Open Polar Ses, which
- Sir John Franklin didn’t findvand there, by a
sort of capillary attraction, it is packed up by
; this porous oil rock, which is ‘known to crop
-nut in that ses, and then, by evap
- oration which goes on abon<, the Sandwich
Islands, it is drawn through tbs bowels of the
earth.towards the Pacific OaeSn again ; and
_ our tapping the earth’s intestine (all of which,
■is just as reasonable as the WHCulation of the
blood) cuts off the supply of riu Paoifie whales,
and-they will surely die ! ,
Secondly; ‘When the worll was created, and
order was brought out of ohwri, and there was
light, and it was good,—of course, the dry land
. and the water separated,—the earth rolled up
like n shell or ball and the Gators went off by
themselves. But it is reasonable to suppose
, that there was as much water shut np in the
. .*wth,as, there was on the outside, surely :
.. °f course, there would b,a an innumerable
nnmber of fish shut up there tod, and they
would propagate, and they would die in the
coarse of old age, and of course they would
turn to oil—and that oil is'iust coming through I
Ido not eay that either of rthese theories is
true,—l only say, the true one lies between
them. " ' r -
I have not seen here or machinery,
to equal that by Jacob, on . Jacob's form, at
“ Jacob’s Well." But whether Jaoob’e Oil will
make as all rich, is another question; yet there
is a strong likeness in surface features in our
county, to the best oil territory of Venango.
Beside, and what ie better, the •* oil smeller"
ea id it was “a sure thing” in Tioga, and our
best oil men and practical geologists agree,in
saying (or if they don’t, they ought to) that
our dduntry'contains vast sobterene deposits
of the precious fluid.' Nature is said to. be
erratic, but why she should favor Venango
county more than Tioga, I can’t understand.
I don’t see any consistency in the thing! My
candid opinion is, that Tioga county rests on a
vast basin of oil, not more than 10 feet deep,
and the only trouble is to find it: but Jacob’s
ladder reached to heaven, and I can’t see why
•bis Well shouldn’t reach to. well, I feel
confident, I’m hopeful, I’m sanguine, positive,
certain, sure I But these wells are very fluct
uating, eccentric. Some flow six or eight
weeks and subside. Some a year, and stop
suddenly—another well having cot off the
lead. Others work by ‘spells’—stop to take
breath. Some are like humanity—blow ‘off
tbeir gas And show tbeir wealth, until the bank
■ breaks and they play oat. The falling off
some times is very rapid—declining in twenty
four hours, from 500 barrels, to zero. A, two
barrel well won’t pay pumping. Some drip
one barrel a day—poor concerns. The “ Big
Well" flows 200 barrels a day, but fcf;it is
water. The flood wrecked many. Hundreds
of wells that once spouted gold eagles by the
hour, are now dry and poverty-stricken I So
it is. Petroleum is an inflated bubble, it’,s pur
suit I mean, a false light, a will o’ the wisp! Men
pursue it, as if it bad got into their beads and
put them out. Thousands sink fortunes (of
those-we don’t hear) while the fickle god smiles
nbtv^and then, on some lucky adventurer—but
it often turns to a mirage—a-vaniahed glitter
ashes and cold comfort! Gold makes some
men wise—many crazy, but most, fools.' It’s
apt to burn boles in the pocket and sear the
conscience. My opinion is, if we fail tq find
oil in the bowels of T’°ga terra firms, we
might tap our own brains, and each man pump
his own well. Respectfully,

EQUALITY—WHAT IB EQUALITY P
We have not cared to step aside from the re
al issues of the campaign just closed to discuss
the false issues raised by. the opposition. Of
these false issues that most persistently urged
upon the people was that of “ Negro Equality.”
It was charged upon the Republicans that they
would, if successful in, the late election, pro
ceed at once to declare the negro equal to the
ally, and that henceforth we should iare ne
gro in the pplor, negro at the ballot-box, ne
gro in the Legislature, and negro in Congress.
The misnamed Democratic party ate not to
be wholly condemned for this tender solicitude
about the negro. They have had negro on tbe
brain until tbe dieeaee has assumed a chronic
form; and the whole world knows that they
have .bad a very large negro in their woodpile
for a dozen yeara. In addition to thesis alarm
ing ail/nents, it has 1 come to be a habit with
them to trot out a bugbear on the eve of every
election, to frighten such boobies as never
think for themselves.
We turn to this subject, cot because there is
a word of truth in the charge made against the
Republican party, for now that the-fight is
over no intelligent man of our adversaries will
pretend that the Republican party, with every
State government in its grasp, could, were it
so minded, bring upon the country the calami*
ties predicted ; we turn to it because it is time
that the chaff of demagogism was eliminated
from the problem of- Human Equality; and the
whole subject discussed in the spirit that be
comes men unbiased by passion, or selfish am
bition, or greed.
All men are equal in some respects, and un
equal in others; and as to natural gifts, as the
Almighty has not bestowed them equally upon
individuals, that is an inequality beyond hu
man remedy. As men are not created equal
in capacity, or in moral tendencies, so the in
dividual gravitates to his place and grade, as
inevitably as do the atoms of the material uni
verse to their affinitive places. Candid men at
once understand and admit, that every attempt
trf set aside the laws of Providence has ever re
sulted, and must ever result, in human discom
fiture. 1
Bqt this Government- ia founded upon the
declaration that am. men, fresh from -the Crea
tive Hand, are politically equal, {hat is to
say: all men are .endowed with certain natu
ral and political rights in common. The right
to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness—
are natural rights, which neither legislatures
nor courts may disregard, except the individ
ual shall become the enemy of social.or polit
ical order.
When the writer of the Declaration declared
that all just governments' derived their exist
ence from the consent of the governed, he de
clared Slavery incompatible with the' existence
of, a just government. Thomas Jefferson was
an advocate of a government grounded in uni
versal suffrage. If he did not mean that bis
fine sentences were written for the -ear rather
thah for the understanding. Bnt he did mean
{hat, whether universal suffrage be practicable
or not; and. while we do not purpose to dis
the subject of suffrage in this article; we do in
tend to say now, as we have often said, that in
our opinion universal suffrage is impracticable
in this age of the- world’s progress.
But on the other hand we desire: to be ex
plicitly understood as bolding to the doctrine
that suffrage ought not to depend upon either
THE TIOGA COUNTY AGITATOR;
color, birth-place, or property ; bat only on the
patriotism and intelligence of the citizen.
But oar-adversaries allege that to give the
ballot to the negro is to put the negro'on an
.equality with the white' man, in all respects. 1
Of coarse this allegation cannot stand atone.
In giving the ballot to any man be is put upon
a political 'equality with the highest, as well as
the lower, and intermediate. No man not a
candidate. for a training school for the feeble
minded, will maintain that giving a man the
ballot gives him any other than politieal equal
ity. We give the most illiterate, stopid, besot
ted white the ballot; but do. .we thereby .give
him an invitation to make free in every man’s
private parlor, or to pat himself upon a foot
ing of familiarity with all the well-bred women
in tbe land 7 Absurd I
Does any voter neqd to be told that the be
stowal of political rights carries with it only
political equality ?
Test it: You, sir, covered with briokdust
and mortar, who walk up to and de
posit your vote for your neighbor worth a hun
dred thousand ; —consider yourself entitled to
frequent his parlors as an equal; and take
your wife and daughters along to entertain bis
more polished family. Try the experiment and
you will understand us.
-One would-suppose that human nature .bad
no antagonisms, to bear these fellows . talk .of
Equality. The thief does not choose honest
men for hie associates, commonly. You can
not establish an equality there. Vile minded
men do not seek companionship with the pore
end high-minded. You cannot establish equal-,
ity there. Coarse and brutal men do not find
themselves at home with the .refined. Yon
cannot establish, equality there., Yet all these
classes may be endowed with equal political
rights and privileges under the Constitution.
Political equality, therefore, does 'pot make
men moral, social, or mental equals. None
arrant, demagogues teach to the contrary.
Demagogues appeal to the passions and preju
dices of the people. They exist and flourish
only by and through the ignorance of the peo
ple. When the masses of mankind become
enlightened demagogues will starve.
OCT. 11,, 1865.
Connecticut has refused to give the ballot
to the few colored men within her borders by
a majority of 6000. This refusal, in view of
the fact that none may vote in that State who
cannot read and write, has no excuse save pre
judice. We can understand bow men are op
posed to universal suffrage, since the stability
of the Government depends upon the virtue and
intelligence of the voters; that is an opposi
tion based upon common sense, in our judg
ment. But Connecticut is not yet ready to
yoke taxation and representation. We join in
an appeal to all Legislatures where tbaaaegroes
are not permitted to vote; to exempt them from
a . n i,. poor taxeB>aDd
The trial of Werz, the Andcraonvilie jailer,
still lingers. Enough evidence of hi* unparal
leled brutality in the treatment of our unfor
tunate boys has been adduced to stamp him a
monster,- for whom hanging is too goodj- Out
of sight with the monster. Then trot out bis
master, Jeff Davis.
The New York Tribunt, in speaking of Ma
son & Hamlin's Cabinet Oboans, says
“ These instruments have been blown by the
wind of genuine success from Boston to San
Francisco. That Messrs. Mason & Hamalin
have succeeded in making a superior small in
strument—from little bandbox like things, to
those which, though portable, and not larger
than a piano, can make themselves felt in a
church—is the universal opinion of the mus
ical professsion. - They agree . that no such
mechanical works of the kind can be found in
equal perfection in Europe. The tone is pure
and full, and with an immense body for so
small a provocative mechanical force. They
stand rough travelling, bad usage, and -will
live in climates which will kill American mis
sionaries.”

[From the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin, Macrh Id.]
We are gratified to bear of the' continued success,
In New York, of our townsman, Mr. H. T. Helm
bold, Druggist. His store, next 1 to the Metropolitan
Hotel, is 28 feet front, 230 feet deep, and fire stories
in height. It la certainly a grand establishment, and
speaks favorably of the merit of bis articles. He re
tains hla Office and Labratory in this city, which are
also model establishments of their class.
The proprietor has been induced to make this
statement from the fact that his remedies, although
advertised, are J
GENUINE PREPARATIONS,
And, knowing that the intelligent refrain from using
any thing pertaining to Quackery, or the Patent
Medicine order—most of which are prepared by self
styled Doctors, who are too ignorant to read a phy
sician's simplest prescription, much less competent to
prepare pharmaceutical preparations.
THESE PARTIES RESORT
to various means of effecting sales, such as copying
parts of advertisements of popular remedies, and
finishing with certificates.
The Science of Medicine stands SIMPLE, PURE,
and MAJESTIC, —having Fact for its Basts, Infec
tion for its Pillar, Truth alone for its Capitol.
A WORD OF CAUTION.,
Health is most Important; and the afflicted should
not use an advertised medicine, or any remedy, unless
its contents or ingredients are known to others be
sides the manufacturer, or until they are satisfied of
the qualifications of the party so offering.
