The recent i. trial of Peter Rupright, on a charge of c l ounterfeiting, at Cleveland, resulting in a verdict of "not guilty," has developed some of the villiany of the no torious Dr. Webb, whose name has fre quently occurred in connection with simi lar cases here/ He is a dangerous man and it is to belhoped that he may be pun ished for rascality. From the testimony it would seete`Aat a stranger calling him self Paine, bdtwhose real name is George Hartman, canal to Oiltown, stayed there some days, got acquainted with Rupright, and, by offenrk him $25, induced him to give the use Olis room to make the coin. Hartman then' went to Salem, wrote a letter notifyingl the United States officers when to be en hand, and on his re turn stopped 1" at the house of Dr. Joshua Webb,: near New Albany, and got moulds and materials. On the even ing of Februaryll2th, Hartman had them at Rupright's ;house, and commenced making ixionejti :left the house on the pre tence that the material did not work rigkt, and that he would go to the tavern and get some other i ingredient; met the hack containing the -'officers near the house; whispered to them and disappeared.

Reserves and other regi ments now in theAmtof the Potomac : A visit to the Pefinsylvania Reserves, in Meade's Diviiiion, Reynolds' Army Corps, proves them sadly reduced in numbers since last year at this time, when, in the . numerical strength of recent recruitment, 'they ,were encamped near Washington, under Gen. McCall. The regiments now average but about four hundred men each, and ' the Ist Rifles, or &Atolls ? muster but two hundred men. This regiment is now commanded by Capt. Dennis McLee. The Ist Infantry of the Reserves is now ' under charge of Capt. Wm. Cooper Folly; 2d, Col. Wm. SilcCandless; 3d, Col. Hor atio F. Sickell 4th, Lieut. Col. R. H. Woolworth; sth, Col. J. W.

P. enemies, together with the batteries A, B, and G, of the Ist Pennsyl vania Artillery; commanded severally by Lieut. John Gi Simpson, Capt. T. EL Cooper, and Cdptain F. P. Amsden. To these may be added Battery C, sth United States, Capt. Di R. Ransom, who is chief of artillery for the division. In Reynolds' ;Army Corps may also be j found the 56th. Pennsylvania, Lieutenant I Colonel J. W. Hoffman, in Doubleday's I division; the 107th Pennsylvania, Colonel T. P. McCoy; the 90th Pennsylvania, Lieu tenant Colonel Wm. A. Leech ; the 136th Pennsylvania, Colonel Thomas M. Bayne; the 11th Pennsylvania, Colonel Richard Coulter, and 88th Pennsylvania, Colonel George P. McLean, in Gibbons' division. To these, among batteries from other States, in this division, we may add bat tery F, Ist Pennsylvania artillery, Lieut. R. Bruce Ricketts, and the Independent Pennsylvania Battery of Captain James Thompson. The 88th Pennsylvania, recruited in Philadelphia musters now but 278 men, 200 only of which would be used in battle, the remainder being detailed for other duties. There are 200 men from this regi ment now in the hospital, and 37 sick and convalescent in camp, This regiment, in common with others in Gibbons' division, badly want shirts, stockings and shoes, and, though requisitions have been repeat edly made on Washington, cannot yet getJ them. Overcoats and blankets they are supplied with. Colonel McLean has late ly been sick, but is now in command. His brother, the Lieutenant Colonel, having been killed, Major Gile replaces him, but ' l is at present absent, wounded.

The 11th Pennsylva• nia, Col. Coulter, encamped adjoining the 88th, musters but 340 men fit for duty. The Oil Market. The Oil City Register, in its weekly re view of the oil market for last week says: The last quotations we made. two weeks since, were S 2 50 to $34 per bbl. at the wells, $3 to $3,50 at this point, for oil. The prices,including packages, here, was from $5 to $5 50. Since then the prices have doubled. We quote at present s6®6 60 per bbl. at the wells, and at this point 500;12, including packages, with the river falling fast, a scarcity of oil and a prospect ofa still further advance.— During the late freshet the main portion of our oil fleet have of out. Some part _g of it has arrived at Pittsburgh, but there is still a large number on the ,way. The streams below are running out very fast, and it is doubtful whether they will all get through. fhe amount of oil shipped du ring the present rise is estimated at from 75,000 to 100,000 bbls. From the best knowledge had on the subject, we should think the amount rather under than over the former figure. Fully 20,000 bbls. of this will be shipped direct to the East, upon its arrival at Pittsburgh. Latest Pittsburgh advices quote Crude firm at 33a55c, in bbl. bulk oil a shade lower.— Refined is held at 75a80c for free, with the prices of crude tending upward. The general range of quotations in the Eastern markets to the 24th instant, are 50a55, for Crude, and 75a80c for Refined." Capture of Pittsburgh Soldiers. It is annouced that Companies C and G of the Third Pennsylvania Cavalry, com manded by Capts. Johnston and Hess, were surprised by a body of the enemy, eight hundred strong, with four pieces of artillery. They were at breakfast, six miles beyond Falmouth, when the rebels dashed upon them and soon disarmed and Captured them, Company G was from this city, and was formerly under com mand of Capt. Robinson. Four were wounded, one of [them, a bugler, after he had surrendered, .and twenty-five eseaped. The companies numbered one hundred men in all. Both commanders were taken, together wifh Lieutenants Warren, Hyle and Inglehart, the only other commis sioned officers. Col. Mclntosh, com mander of the regiment, started in pursuit.

Though her physician thinks she will recover, she is not yet believed to be out of danger. She is unable to help herself and has little control'of her limbs. Her recovery, should she survive, will be very slow and tedious. Sentences.
