One of the most extraordinary salt wells on j
i record, perhaps, b that now being operated
ftt WelUville, Columbiana county, Ohio. This;
well was sunk in anticipation of finding oil,
but when at the depth of four hundred and'
eighty feet, the borers struck a vein of gas,
' which bunt forth with such violence as to
' «ject nil the tool* used In -bqring, together
' “ with two hundred feet of pipe which had been
previously introduced. . The boring had do-. I
veloped a very strong vein of salt water, and |
the ms continued to spout the whole column
of salt and fresh' water furnished by the well, J

for six month's. The ideadf msnafaetnring
ealt was then conceived, .and after the r hcees- j
~ *wy pans, tanks, Ac., were put up, the work
commenced. The. gas wn* brought in
pipes from the gasometer and introduced into

aired, perform the whole office of evaporation

CITY AFFAIRS. V/<
Ariert of JnTenile Thievea.
MeetiogofTAllegheny CouncUs-«The
Market House Project.
~'XhwBeleet-andCommon Councils of-Alle-
gheny held a special meeting last evening, for !
the purpose of hearing tire-report of the Spe.-.j
dial Committee on; Diamond Improvement!
There was a fall attendance of members in j
both branches, who went into Joint Session j
to facUitate the business-of the .meeting. , |
Mr. Riddle, Chairman of the Special Com-j
mitiee, then submitted the following report: ;
To the Honorable, the Select and Common Coun
cil* of the City of Allegheny ;
Gestlckex—Your “Special Commtttoo on
Diamond Improvement” beg leave to report
that they have fulfilled the duty assigned to
them. They present, accompanying this Re
port, ;the several bids roceived from persons
desirous, of- erecting your public improve
ments. As will be observed, the number of
bid* is somewhat unusual; the closeness of
the~bidding,' on the. part of several'of the
bidders, will also attract attention.
. Your Committee' incited two distinct pro
posals—one on an absolute cash basis, and
the'other on payments to .be. derived from
rents of market stands. It will no donbt be
as gratifying to Councils as it proved to your
CommUtes, when It is ascertained that several
of the lowest bids, were based bn the latter, prov?
ing the publio confidence in the estimate ot your
Committee. And as a still stronger evidence,
of the public confidence. in these estimates,
your Committee would call attention to the
fact that, the successful bidders demand but
legal interest on the deferred payments.
Your Committee would respectfully recom
mend to Councils the performance of what is
now a plain duty. It is universally admitted
that the proposed improvements are needed.
.Councils, by their late action, in the appoint
ment of this Committee!; and by their subse
quent approval of the plans reported from the
same, havo. indicated an honest intention of
prosecuting the work to a speedy completion,
always provided that it coufd be accomplished
withoht. increasing the city ; debt, or the al
ready onerous rate of. taxation. It affords
youx Committee great pleasure to report to
Council*, that the completion of the city im
provements involves not a. dollar of additional
debt upon, the city,' and not the remotest pro
bability.of an additional mill of taxation upon
the oituens. .'All that is asked is that the city
shidl forego .the vents sow received firom the'
E resent eln anddilapidated markets—amount
ig to somefour thousand three hundred dollars
per annum, dating from January Ist, 1861, and
agree to pay into this improvement fond, from
the date of tbocompleuon and occupancy by
the city officers of the sew City Ball, until
- the entire debt is discharged, the sum of eight
! hundred dollars per annum, at on equivalent
I for the rents now being paid for city offices,
j This the city can do—even in her present eon
| dition—without in theleost crippling her
finances or endangering the liquidation of any
j obligation.
In d'rder to carry out tho spirit of their in
[ structions, your committee have carefally ex-
aminedthe accompanying proposals, (which
were all unsealed and examined at a-meeting
held for that’purpose on the evening of
Thursday list, the 21et Inst., at which all the
member* were present, except Mr. Heath,
who was detained b'y illness,) and beg to, of
fer the accompanying resolution*, which, It is
believed, eovor the whole ground, and depend
solely oh.\fhe .contingency ( *of .procuring
from the "Legislature the,enactment of a law
guaranteeing to the special standing commit
tee the right to collect and pay OTer to the
contractors the -market revenue until the
whole cost Is paidMtwill .be obviously prop
er that Councils.shall give that security and
guarantee to thecontractora, which they, have
demanded from.them j and this all the. more
as Councils change every year, while the ob
ligations or this contract will continue during
a period of four,' or perhaps five yea?;,
hence the propriety of a standing committee
of citiiens, entrusted by city and dtate Legis
lative enactment with the duty of carrying
out the spirit of the contract to its completion.
In order that no possible complications shall
arise, it is also recommendedthat said stand
ing committee shall elect a Treasurer, who
shall receive from the city the land dedicated
to this improvement, giving security, in the
sum of, 'say, ten : thousand dollars, for the
faithful performance of the trust ;■ end that
payments be made to the contractors, under
agreoment, by warrants drawn by the com
mittee upon their Treasurer, as the
funds are collected, and as the monthly or
quarterly estimates are. made by the archi
tects and certified to the committee. -
The following; resolutions, believed,
comprise ell of the .recommendations of your ;
Committee, all: of which is respectfully sub
mitted: .
<; let. itoofeed, By the Select and Common
Couneile of the" City of Allegheny, That a
Select Committee, consisting of one citixen
from each' Word, together with the Mayor of
the eity forjhe time being, be appointed, with
authority to enter into articles of agreement
with Messrs. White A Alexander, for the
erection ofrMarket Houses, City Hall, Weigh

bidder" for the completion of any details of
the general plan adopted by Councils, and hot
included Lu their proposals, all to beta-ac
cordance with plant'and specifications ap
provedby the efty.- . Said improvements to be
completed at the earliest practicable moment,
and the time to be eperified in articles of, agree

Man Killed on the Railroad.
—An accident of a distressing and fatal char
acter occurred last evening, about dusk, on
tho line of the Pittsburgh, Tort 'Wayne and
Chicago Bailway, near Manchester. It ap
pears' that Wm. Eckort, a German butcher,
•residing in tfee. vicinity of Wood’s run, start
ed from Allegheny, for home, a little before
dark, taking the Bailroad track as the most
direct loute. When he was within a short
distance of home, a train approached from
the West, whieh he did not seem to observe,
and continued to walk along the track until
the engine was fairly upon him. It is said
that the engineer sounded the alarm,but it had
no effect, and Eckert was stricken down—the
engine passing over him, breaking both legs,
and otherwise mutilating the body. .
The edgine was reversed, and the man was
picked up -and conveyed to the Allegheny
depot, where Dr. Dickson was speedily sum
moned. The unfortunate man was past sur
gery, and although he was able to speak a
few words, be soon expired. Tho deceased
trot well'known as an In das trout and pros
perous buteher, and was a brother of Jacob
■ and Pater Eckert, of McClure township. He
was about forty years of age, and leaves a
family. Coroner Host wick was notified of the
affair, and trill hold an inquest to-day.

that the vessels wero damaged and had to

that on Friday Fort Pickens opened os the

WxShxbotow, Nov. 20.—Advices received
in this city, (not by the Government,) from
Mexico,' represent that the kindest feelings
exist between the British Minister and the
Juans Administration, while the opinion Is
expressed-in distinguished circles that the
friendship of France will be as satisfactorily
received. v But little, however, is hoped for
from Spain, whose designs on Mexico are so
well understood in Hie leltereoaatry as in tho
capitals of Europe. Those who profess to bo
well acquainted with the Spanish programme,
say that Gen. Marques is entrusted with the
duty of combining the strength of the Church
party, consisting of both Mexicans and Span
iards, who will pay hermoit Catholic Majesty
for a Ring for the throne of Mexico, now
sought to be constructed. Tor this office an
uncle of the Queen has been designated. As
be ds already an old man,.he wonld, lb the.
natural coarse of events, live bat a short time;
and as no provision would bo made for a suc
cessor, Mexico would thus revert to Spain, the
Siliry being the tame as thatpursuod towards
syti. Snob is the substance of letters re
ceived from both Europe and Mexico.
- There eeeme'to be somedoubtasto the Im
mediate return-to the United States of.the
Amorican Minister Corwin. The probability
is that he will not leave his post, Id view of
our important.-interests in Mexico, growing
out of the European intervention.
