The Oil. Trade-. The Price and Sup*
ply to be Restated*
A few days cinoe we mentiouad that stren
uous efforts were being made by tho leading
oil dealers on Oil Creek, for the formation of
an association by means of which the price
. and supply of crudo oil could be so regulated
•s to ensure remunerating rates to the well ,
owners, and at the same time prerent the
raeme waste from flowing wells. The great
bnlk of the profits now resulting from the oil
trade, go into the coffers of the refiner*, who •
manage to keep up the price of the refined
artiele, while crude oil is now soiling on Oil
Creek at leutkan one half cent per gallon! The
flowing wells which spout forth fire, six, sev
en aud eight hundroi barrels daily, without
the expense of engines, fuel, etc., hare had
the effect of closing up entirely pumping wells,
■■ which, under more favorable-circumstances,
..would pay a handsome profit on invest
ment. At the presentniinous rates, however,
* v' it does not pay to operate pumping wells.'
The ownors of the flowing wells have been
-- striving to undersoil one another, until the
• •, merely nominal fraction above mentioned has
s been reached; and, if nothing is done to pre
vent it, the price will go down still farther.
t&at vreok an adjourned meeting was held
at Rouseville, on Oil Creek, at. which an ex
. tended plan.was presented for controllingt he
• supply and price of oil. “ Articles of agree-
jnent.of.the .Oil Creek. Association/', were also
presented, which. propose, to inclado within
'.. ‘ their jurisdiction'all operators in oil in.the
‘valley of Oil Creck ana its tributaries, from
the.mouth of 6aid crook to Titusvillej and the
,y bottom lands of the Allegheny .river, from
■ Tidionte to five miles below Franklin* The
. plan proposed is ns follows': That the organ
ization snail continuo for ten years, with offi
cers chosen annually by ballot; that the di
rectors shall appoint an Inspector, who shall
' give proper bonds for tho faithful performance
of hu autiee, and who shall havo power to
enter upon the lot of each flowing wellor wells,
... : .or. each pumping well, now or. heretofore pro*
,‘■. ducingoil, orwhichxoay,withinthesaidterm
. of ten years, be. suttk within the boundaries
... ofsaid district, forthe purpose of ascertaining
.'the natural drily production of each, and shall
.' havo the' power, and shall so' regulate such
production, under the instruction of said-Di
rectorsfrom time to time, as that the supply
of the whole shall not exceed the demand.
Said Inspec tor xhall so secure tho control of
. such'wells as that no other person can inter
- meddle therewith. -He shall have Uke control,
over all pumping wells now in uso or hero
; - after'to be sunk in said district during said
t term* - '
. ' Itia aUo proposed that all oil produced,
, , shall bo paid for into a common treasury by
. the purchaser, an office for which purpose
i v shallbe,eligibly located, and the treasurer.
\ - ' shall hold the proceeds subject to the order of
/tho party telling, and to such per centage &s
: ; :mky be assessed.' AH sales must be-mode
through this channel, whether for cash or
-* . credit. V
It is farther provided that - no member of
; the association shall sell or disposo of their
* ' oil at less than tea ctuttjxr gallon, which rate
> •.... may be increased by the directors from: time
_ to.rime, as the interestsof the trade may roi.
•j. . qdire, and in cate any party shall desire c to
* -ship oil from said territory by river or other
>: wise, in large or small quantities, for purpose
of storage or future market, he may hare such
.privilege by paying into tbc treasury ten. per
centage.duo thereon, and giving notice to the
y __ Treasurer of time and place of such shipment;
;j 'bat no such oil shall thereafter bo sold by
"such party for less than ten eents and'its
. transportation added.
-Xheplan f QfwhiehtheaboveUamenout-
Une, was-duly considered, and laid over until
■ . tho next regular meeting.
Whattucoess may attend the efforts to form
an association so' gigantic as this, time alone,
' ; most develops The movement is one of great
v - importaneei and must be necessarily eompli
y - caied ih its details; eituans are largeli
*•; cogaged in the oil business; and they will ne
v ;. .ccssarily feel some interest in this matter. ;
» 'ln the meantime, active efforts are being
made forthe construction ofaplankcr.tiajjber
road io eohnect-with some feasible point, on
\ ■ —the" Philadelphiasind Erie Railroad. Somo
tacts have also been laid before the Assoeiar
(ibn in regard to the prospect , of-a railroad
from the mouth of Oil creek ;to. the Philadel
> * ' . phia and Erie Railroad. A survey of a por*
. (ion of the route has already been made, and
. ettps have been taken for securing a charter.

k once addressed-Bean Swift, whose
polyonomoua condltioalh authorship had other
good reasons, in those days, besides the whims
of his own eccentric genius, in the following
conplet: .
"0 thou, whatever title please thi&e ear,
-Beau, Drapfer, Blckentaff, or OalllTer!"
But why we-should have to address Br. Hol
land,of Springfield, Massachusetts, by such
an alias as “Timothy Titeomb" may hereafter
puttie some, bookworm, who will meet with
the name oh the title-pages of certain pleas
ant, genial hooks—ana no less wise and in
structive for being pleasantand genial—books
of which any man mightlfepleased to} own
himselfjthe author, by giving every letter in
his name on the several title-pages thereof.
But concerning tastes, as they say, there is no
use. in disputingperhaps to some ears
“Timothy Titeomb" may sound more eupho
nious than <r J. C. Holland," and if soj by all
means let them please themselves. At any
rate, we have all.to welcome a new book from
our Author, call him as we. will.
It is described corra9tly on the titie-pago
as “a Beries .of fhmiliar assays." The sub
jects are various, as the titles of the first do ten
of them will show,to wit: Moods and Frames
of Mind; Bodily Imperfeotions and Impedi
ments; Animal Content; Reproduction in
Kind; Truth and Truthfulness; Mistakes of
.Penance; The Rights.of Woman; American
Public Education; Perverseness; Undevel-,
oped Resources ; Greatness in Littleness;
Rural Life. There are a doien more essays, of
which we will only say that they exhibit quite
as miscellaneous a range of subjects as those
we have enumerated. Beyond the mere an
nouncement of a new book by an author so
well known us Br. Holland; and such an in
dication of the nature of the work as we have
given, it is not necessary moro formally to
commend volume before us to the
attention of our readers. It will form a most
desirable and appropriate holiday present
one that mayc bo prized for its own aake as
well as for the sake of the giver. , ;

present instance they have certainly given.us
another evidence that they are in earnest in

in the opinion of the most competent judges,
a work of remarkablo interest, evidencing a
power and fullness of resource in the author,
such as is but seldom met with in the general
current of fiction-writing, now daily disported
in by so innumerable a multitude. The Lon

[We commend.,the following touching ap- u
peal to the consideration of every humane i
man and woman in this community, and hope
that it may meet with a speedy response.]
We, the ladies of the Allegheny Relief
Society, did .hope that, as the public would
learn from our annual report, (which, was j
published a few weeks since,) how the funds j
had been appropriated which were committed j
to our disposal, and the necessity there was
for a continuation, of donations from a gen- '
erous public, to enable us to carry on our j
work-of lore, that voluntary subscriptions •
would be made, without the necessity of our !
again soliciting your charity. TFie have been !
disappointed. It is with great reluoUnce we
again come before you. Nothing but a sense
of duty ceuld induce us to do It. But we
cannot resist the cries-of this suffering poor,
with whom we are in daily contact. It would
be mnch easier to put our hand In our own
pockets, to relieve their necessities, if we had
it, than to.ask othen for the means to enable
us to carry on our work, by love. But God has
given you the means; and to us, the duty of
asking you for aid... We have met weekly in
our usual place-for several weeks post, hop
ing each week some one of us would havo
the cheeriug news to communicate, that
we had. received donations which would
enable us to givo food to the hungry and
clothes to the naked. Very little has come
in. Our frith has been sorely : tried. ;But
remembering that He who fed the hungry
multitude with the five loaves and two fishes,
can.so touch your hearts as to incline you te
open wide your hand, and by* giving of your
abundance, enable ns to carry joy and comfort
to many a ohecrless hearth.- We concluded
■ that we would give out coal and shoeal ' We
have been so doing; but as we always have
our bills scut to us the last Thursday of every
month, pay-day is here, but we hare dot
enough to meet our liabilities.
Dear reader, we now appeal to you for as
sistance, and we trust our appeal will not be
in vain, for we X*«oro from past experience
there are kind hearts in Pittsburgh and Alle
gheny, who, with ready hands, will aid us in
our work of love. Oh, eould you witness the
scenes that daily meetour view of heart-rend
ing destitution, you could find no pleasure,
surrounded by your loved ones, by your own
warm Preside, until, you first , sent of your
means to procure like comforts to the suffering
poor.
The diy after we decided to give out coal, I
sallied forth, for I knew bow many in my
own district were in need; and now, dear
reader, let me tell.you of a very few of the'
many heartrending seenes that met my .view.
The first I visited 4ras a widow, her own
hands crippled .by rheumatism, her eldest
girl unable to do anything. Far gone in con
sumption, her. ion: could get no work. They,
had no fuel,except a few ohips they had gath
ered. on the street.
The next I visited- the father (an excellent
man) on his death bed with consumption, and
before his eyos the wife and four little chil
dren of his love, suffering for the necessaries
of life.
I bad beentoicLof a'woman who was in
distress, for her I found
another—one who hadbiever solicited charity;
one who, judging from her conversation and
manners, bad been accustomed to very differ
ent circumstances. Her husband had been
absent for some time with the army across the
Potomac. The house she was in was not as
comfortable as many a stable, and for it
she had to pay- S 3 60 per month. She;
has six children—-the oldest twelve years,
the youngest bat six months. They were
destitute of every thing. A few weeks since
; her husband sent her ton dollars—the most of
which has heed paid for rent.; She had not
made known her wants, hut had parted with
one article of clothing after another, to get
bread for her little oue* % They were without
shoes and stocking), end barely clothing to
cover their nakedness. They .were the wife
and children of one who has gone to lay down,
if necessary, bis Lite In behalf of his bleeding
country. Will you not, my dear reader, with
these facts beforo you, contribute to the ut
most of your ability, to enable ue as a society
to continue throughout the winter to carry on
our work of lore T If joa~h»ve much, give
liberally j if you have butUttle, do not refute,
but give of that little.

Not Very Decent.
Mr. Prentice,, of the Louisville Journal, bad
a private party given tohhn in! Waahington a ■
few days ago. Mi 1 . Secretary; Cameron, at .
the party, is reported to have said that “as a •
last resort to put downrebelUon, vre ought to <
arm every man who desires to.strike for hu
man liberty/' This is not what Mr. Cam
eron said. He was speaking of the power and
resources of the Government to overcome the '
rebellion, declaring that it would be put down
beyond all peradventure—that the great white ■
race of the North would re-establish this
Government in every State of the .Union, and
in the effort were, bound to. avail.themselves
of every means in their power. The end was
not yet, and when the last card in this game
was played, 1C might be shown that the South’s :
boasted source of .strength was its great ele
ment of woaknesa. He.waa not for massacre,
and a war upon women and children; but the
slaves would be duly organized and armed,
ond/governed by the rales of modern warfare,
.allowed to aid in tfioi spread of human liberty-,
and in crushing out this unholy rebellion/
Mr..Cameroh'a purpose seemed more to show
the South’s utter inability to stand, against
the North, than to present any policy of the
Government, orihdeed of-any fixed purpose of
his own.. Hia allusion to any slave partici
pation in the war, as we ere informed by one
who waa present, was only as a remote contin
gency unlikely to happen, and which happen-,
ing, removed all hope of ultimate success by
the . rebels. Mr. Smith, another member of
the cabinet, dissented from this sentiment.
The Louisville Journal, Prentice's-paper of
Friday last, came out in a very fierce phillip
pic against the Secretary of War, and de
nounced him as being Intellectually and mor
ally disqualified for his position, and said the.
“ time has unquestionably arrived when Mr-
Cameron should be compelled to retire from
the cabinet. His remaining in it longer will
be a disgrace to the administration and a sore
evil to the.country/' This is' certainly very
, low abuso, considering that Mr. Prentice ref
ceived.the remarks of Mr. Cameron, praises
and all, without a murmur of dissatisfaction;
If he was offended at the sentiment, no time
was so appropriate to object to it as at this
'social ana prirate'&seembl&ge, where the sen
timents uttered wero.of a/reerand less guard
ed character than they would be in a public eet
speech, and where the autbor'of them would
bo at liberty to give the qualifications, which
his -words undoubtedly admitted. "To make
these convivial uttorances at a private party
the subject for public comment’and - abuse in
the newspaper, and to vulgarly assail the of
ficial charscler of the Secretary of War there
for, seems a most unwarrantablyabuse of hos-'-
pltality and of social good breeding.—PAifa

It is reported that Parson Browclow had:

a sympathizer in the Union movement in
that .quarter. The town of Knoxville ie
under martial law.- On the night of the
insurrection—last Friday—it is a&uTthaf
signal rockets were fired all over the moun

was made to burn all the ) bridges. Six of
the men engaged in -the: ,attempt to burn
the Strawberry Plains bridge, atad who
afterwards attempted to mnrderthewatch

der mill 9 for Augusts, Ga., and Manches

considerable excitementabout Chattanooga,
and on 1 Tuesday ' three companies were
made np to guard the town every night
An old man named Cleft, ’ at, Harrison,
Hamilton county, about fifteen miles from
Chattanooga, was reported to have a com
pany of five hundred Lincolnites around
him, but it 'is thought that the report is
exaggerated. A strict watch ia;kept upon
his movements, and he will be prevented
from doing; harm; "

yesterday, reveals an alarming state of af
fairs in the condition of the - public- health,
showing not only an increase or 1,019, deaths
within the past foarmonths over those of last -
year, but a . frightful increase of mortality
from scarlet ’ fever, croup, bronchitis and
Sneumoriia— the increase or deaths from these
iseasoa forms one-fourth of the,total. .This,
fact warns ua'.of the necessity existing for
somo means of protection against unskilled
and half-educated physicians. The pablio
are thus constantly exposed to malpractice at
-the hands of ignorant men, who follow the
profession merely ,as a. meant -of .making
money,'without the ambition or . the Qualifica
tions which pertain-to the educated practi
tioner.” ' How widely difiereut have been the
results in the above disorders from those who
have used Holloway's Pills and Ointment is
manifest by the fact that not a single cafe of
death occurred wherever the Pills and Olnt-
I ment had been taken in time; - Thousands of
mothers owe adebt of gratitude, to'Dr. Hol
loway for being: the meanaof saving the lives
of their.darlings. There la no idle theory or
speculation in the use of these medicines. The
effect is invariablv the same—sure. and.cer
tain—where all tub instructions given are
strictly, fulfilled. The'Pills. coo Vend purify
the blood, while tho Ointment locally applied
in scarlet ina, croup or bronchitas, allays the
inflammation and speedily restores the little
sufferer theenjoyraeoit ofhealth.\ .In Eu
rope, we learns that hundreds of lives have
been sated in cases.of diptheria, for which the
Ointment Is a certain cure,- andforall diseaeos
affecting : the throat, penetrating as( it; does,
the affected-glands, which no internal medi
cine alone can reach—soeffectaallvas to k act
with sufficient celerity,'to save tho’ patient.
This extraordinay Ointment wQI give perinar
nerit relief to all asmathio patients/ and may
thorofore bocbriiideredas a sovereign remedy.
