THURSDAY MORNING, MAY 14
CITY, MID !MG II: 0 0011 IItiTELLIGRNGE
Deetruetive :Fire at 'Oil City--
' 'Franklin Bridge Burned.
Yistaterday . morning our oil men were
with the report that Oil City had .
I .44 l Aittroyed-the night previons, togeth
er with all the oil in store at that place.
Dispatches continued to arrive for certain
patties `nearly all day, but as they were
ora private nature we could glean but lit
tle information respecting their contents.
We learned however that Oil City had not
been destroyed although a very large
quantity of oil had. Some estimated the
lots at 10,000 barrels, and as we could not
obtain, the right figures, it is probable
thatahat figure would be an approxima
ting. From all the information we could
glealithe fire originated at what is known
as the Michigan landing, and spreading,
consumed all the oil which was
in the eddy. The burning boats
floated down the stream setting fire to
the Franklin bridge, which was entirely
destroyed. We calld upon the telegraph
operator, but he could give us no informa
tion from the fact that all the dispatches
whiclthad passed through his hands were
of a private character,and he could not
make. them public. The fall particlars
will probably be received to.day. The
only parties whose loss we could ascertain
was Messrs Sehmertz & Bleakley, chose
loss: will amount to about $2OOO. The
effect of the news was to stiffen the market,
ancl,..inaka holders less anxious to sell.
We alto:learned that the rebels in their
den:mated of the Kanawha wells, had
destroyid all of the tanks, derricks, boats,
machinery, and every thing else connected
with-this-carrying on of the Oil business at
that plate.
Since writing the above we have been
handed the following dispatch to a gentle-
man of this city:
OIL Crry, May 12.—The great fire at
Oil City commenced at 12 last night. Fif
ty boats and ten- thousand barrels of oil
were burned. ' :Loss $75,000. The' boats
were cast loose and'floated down the river
setting fire to and destroying the bridge at
Franklin, seven miles distant.
For Plttliburgh.
Among other items of information to be
found nport the Bulletin board at the Oil
Exchinge, we find the manifest of the
steamer Eclipse, which boat left Cairo for
this plane tin the 10th inst.
The Oil Exchange will continue to re
ceive the manifests of steamers, and con
signees can find them as soon as they ar
hanging upon the board. This will
be found of great convenience to all per
sons expecting freight from below, and
we hope that.the ateamboatmen will take
sufficient interest in the matter to forward
their manifests, adding to them every
item of information that may come within
their knowledge. Make the Exchange a
central point, for news of all kinds, and
the 'merchants will be sure to congregate
there.
• Back Again.
Capt. Wright, Provost Marsha 1, arrived
yesterday from Harrisburg in the noon
train. He informs us that he visited he
boys of Col. Clark's regiment, the old
123 d and that they were all well and
hearty. -Be says that - companies E. H.
and G were mustered out of service night
before last, - and that the balance were to
have been mustered out yesterday. The
122 d, 123 d, 124th and 125th were all in
Camp Curtin. Six officers have been de
tailed to muster out the nine months' men.
Majors Lyon,Errett, Webb and Newell
were in Harrisburg prepared with an ample
amount of fends to pay off all the boys,
and the payment is to commence to-day.
The nine month regiments are expected at
the rate of two regiments a day at Camp
Curtin. The 122 d and 123 d have'returned
their arms, and all that remains now is
to be mustered out. An endeavor will be
made, to have the companies arrive in this
city in daylight on Friday, and telegraphic
communication will be constantly had so
as to noti4 , the people of their approach.
Avoldentally Killed.
Andrew KCBain, a member of Colonel
Clark's 123 d regiment, was accidentally
killed J_eaterday morning at Harrisburg,
by being run over by the train as it was
approaching the depot. He leaves a wife

"Officers Arrested.
A negro woman residing at the point

Ipsteceut Exposure.
We notice quite a number of boys and
young mini . who - are in the habit of going
into the Allegheny river bathing, at al
most eve!) , hotti.of the day, and indecent
ly exposing themselves to the passers by.
There is an ordinance prohibiting such
things, aid if, those engaged in doing it
have no shanie, they should be taught
that others will not tolerate such an out
rage upon decency.
Larceny.
Benjamin Check was yesterday arrested
and taken before the Mayor, charged with

Our entire community was agitated and
distressed by the announcement of the
death of Miss Lizzie L., daughter of the
late Dr. David Marchand who expired at
her mother's house in Greensburg, on
Sunday morning last.
The sacred privacy of domestic sorrow
may not be intruded on, and we therefore
refrain from such extended' notice of the
life and character of Miss Marchard as
could alone do justice to her eminent mer
its. Those who best knew her, will most
deeply feel, what is to them, an irreparable
loss. Her gentle manner and cheerful
piety, her charity, which abounded in all
good works, and the kind sympathy of a
loving heart, made a character rare and
beautiful. She has lived among those
whom she cheered, consoled and encour
ged; and dying, she has left to those who
survive, the rich legacy of an example
which all should emulate. Long and ten
derly her memory will be cherished—but
in the midst of poignant sorrow, she will
not be mourned as one without hope. She
will still point—
Whereon high—that purer sphere,
rest the souls of the departed,
In bliss celestial, ever blest.

Itlut•der In Butler County.
On Tuesday last, at 2 o'clock in the af
ternoon, a man by the name of Jno. Has
ler, residing in Harristown, Butler county,
was murdered by his son in-law, a man
by the name'of Northam. Thu murderer
was arrested, and is now confined in But
ler county jail.
Opera.
Norma, ever popular, was presented
rest night to a highly appreciative audi
ence, and one who frequently testified
their gratification by their applause.—
Madame Lorini as Norma was superb, and
by her passionate acting, showed that
she felt the part she was acting. She has
the moat perfect command of her voice,
and trill among the highest notes with se
much ease and correctness, as though no
effort was necessary to give utterance to
the different changes. Wile Morensi sung
beautifully, acted beautiful, looked beatiti
ful, and in fact was elegant thoughout the
piece. Her walk, actions and movements,
are grace itself. Her Costa Diva is linear
passed, and in the duets between her and
Norma it is seldom that their superiors
can be found. The sholusEs were very
effective, and certain passages in the opera
were rendered in such a style, as to keep
the audience breathless with attention.
To-night, Lucretia Borgia will be pre
sented, with Madame Lorina, Trl'lle Mo.
renzi, Signor Brignoli and Signor Susini.
This is the last opportunity that our
citizens will have of visiting the opera!
for some time to come, and we doubt no
but that the occasion will be eagerly aeiz
ed upon, and that a fine audience wil
grace Concert Hall
The Grand Concerts and Levee!?
at Masonic Hall.
These entertainments by the Little
Fairy Dollie Dutton only one third as
large as General Tom Thumb, and the
celebrated vocalist, MisFlMarsh of Boston,
have attracted fine audiences all the week.
and continue until Saturday during the af
ternoon and evening of each day at 3 and 8
o'clock. Miss Marsh has a rich sweet
voice and pleases the audience. The
Philadelphia Press says : "Little Dollie
Dutton gave her first Levees yesterday
afternoon and evening, and several hund
red poople paid their respects on each,
occasion. Now that we have seen her.
our wonder is no longer excited that this
charming child has created such a furor
throughout the country. She is certainly
the most remarkable specimen of humani
ty in minaibre that was ever exhibited in
this part of the country, beating Torn
Thumb beyond comparison. Dollie is not
a dwarf, She is a well formed, graceful
child of nearly ten years old, perfectly pro
portioned in every particular; well devel•
oped, mentally and physically, but so
small that she seems more like a doll than
a breathing human being. Her features'
are regular, and anywhere by any body'
she would be considered beautiful. Every
action is graceful and natural, and it is
very evident that she is gifted with a de•
gree of intelligence fully equal to that
bestowed upon other children. and per.
haps even superior to many. She is a
little lady, and one can scarcely fail to
love her at first sight. Comical enough it
is to witness her sober womanly deport.
ment in the presence of an audience, and
it would be surprising indeed if people
should fail to be attracted to her."

Mosaic Painting.
We find in the course of a very interest
ing letter from Venice, in the Boston Dai
ly Advertiser, mention made of a current
of Art, which many centuries ago ebbed
away from the Lagoon City, having of late
crept back so steadily, that the writer, who
has lived eight.ecn months in Venice, has
never noted the return tide till just now.
This is the antique art of mosaic painting.
The description given by the Advertiser s
correspondent is minute and diffuse. We
will endeavor to abridge it understanding
"Inside the workshop are some two
hundred artizans at work—cutting the
smelts and glass into the minute frag
merits of which the mosaic paintings are
made, grinding and smoothing these frag
ments, polishing the completed works,
and copying with incredible pstience and
skill,, the lights and:sradows of the pictures
to be made. An outline of the painting
to be copied is traced upon soft cement,
which receives the artist's material, and
grows beneath his hand, grain by grain.
into form, colcr and life. Slender stems
of smalts lie near, ready to be brok -et for
his use. His skill, HI-ills that of Ilyz.an
tium, his colors infinitely surpass those cf
the old artists. A score cf flesh tint.,
alone enable him to reproduce the most
delicate harmonies of the painter. The
background is easily blocked in with
squares and oblongs of glass, faced with
a leaf of' gold, which is rendered invul
nerable to time and weather by the thin
vitreous coating, which a recent invention
throws over it. Framed in iron, made of
vitreous paste and glass, the mosaic thus
defies decay. It is the vener ,
able Lorenzi Itsdi, who has found again
the lost secret of the I 3 jzsntines, of coun
terfeiting in vitreous paste, ndventurine
(gold stone), onyx, chalcedony, male
chits, &c. The writer confesses that there I
amid the abundance of material, and the
palpable nature of the material, he rather I
lost the sense cf mosaic painting as a tine
art, but he says he recovered it again on,
looking at some exquisite figures of saints
in mosaic, and witnessing the endless va
riety
of the forms of elegance and beauty
to which it had been adapted. Cunning
ly inlaid tables and caskets, rich vases of
chalcedony mounted in silver, delicately
wrought jewelry, :gave this last room a
splendor truly Byzantine, and the pave
ment, on which was fitted part of a mo
saic floor now making for the Viceroy of
Egypt, bestowed the last grace of Eastern
mapificence, 1 saw here, he says, the
designs furnished by the Princess of Prue
sia for the mosaics of the Queen's chapel
at Windsor, and learned from the Cavalier
Salviati, that the mosaics for St. Paul's
in London (which he is to furnish) will
soon be begun. They will all be made in
Venice, and placed as wholes in tie cathe
dral. Signor Salviati has furnished the
materials for the repair of the mosaics of
thd Basilica San Marco, (Venice) and a
commission of the I. R. Academy of
Fine Arts in Venice has applauded the
discoveries of Radi as calculated to pro
duce'mosaica more durable in tint and
workmanship than those of the Byzantine
artists."
Death of Comptroller Cutts.
We deeply regret to announce that J.
Madison Cutts, EN-, Second Comptroller
of the Treasury, died yesterday morning
after a brief illness. Mr. Cutts was the
father-in-law of the late Judge Douglas,
and-his death will tall with peculiar sever
ity upon Ms now doably bereaved daught

ed by all who know her. The oldest son
of Mr, Cutts is in the army, serving at
present upon Gen. Burnside's staff, and
he, as well as other relatives of the de•
ceased, will share the sympathy of all oar
fellow-citizens who knew him, but none
more than Mrs. Cutts, the estimable wid
ow of the deceased.
Mr. Cutts was a nephew of the late
Mrs. Madison, widow of ex-President

Gen. Grant Claimed as a Scotch
The Edinburg Scotsman lays claim to
Afajar General Ulyees S. Grant, who was
really born in the state of Ohio, and
says :
We are happy to add another to the roll
of illostrons Grants from the banks of the
Spey—namely, General Grant of the
Federal army. He is the son of the late
Charles Grant, of Anchnahyle, and was
born at Frantown. He served, we believe,
in the Crimean campaign. On the break
ing out of the American war, the gallant
officer tendered his servicas to the North
ern government, which were willingly ac
cepted.

of Wisconbin, who recently perpetrated
matrimony appended to the' announce.
ment the following: "Cards issued on

Headache, whether originating in the nervous
system or from a deranged state of the stomach.
They may be taken at all times with perfect
afety, without making any change f triet, and
the absence of any clssagreealtle taste, :renders it
cagy to adm inister them to children.
By the use of these Pills the periodic at
tacks of Nervous er Sick Headache talky' be pre
' vented; and if taken in th. cowmen, lament of
an attack immediate relief of pain rug I sickness
w.ll be obtained.
They seldom fail in removing - Jfintsect and
