AND 1 111100111100 D lIITHLLIGKNOIi Exports of Petroleum. The transportation of petroleum has become an important item in the trade, and adds largely to the cost of the article on the seaboard and in Europe. There is a company in England which is building ships with tanks expressly for this article of freight, by which the cost of sea-tarry . lag will be reduced and safety insured - It now becomes important to invent a railway car which-till carry petroleum in .bulk, whence it, can be pumped into the skips, and thus save the expense as well as the freight both ways of the bar rels. A Mr. Myers, of New York, has devised a model . of a new car, or rather a new invention for this purpose. He proposes to make two strong cylinders or barrels of Iron, the outer edges being fittsd with rims like the rime of railway wheels. The two barrels thus prepared and connected with each other, form a car, and can be rolled with their contents of oil along the rail track from the springs in the interior to the side of the vessel in New York, pumped out and returned empty to the springs for a new freight. A photograph likeness of the car can be seen at the Oil Exchange, and a view of it will be found interesting to all interested in the purchase'or shipment of oil. CANT. ROBINSON, of Cincinnati, has done himself credit by naming his new boat C. t - P. Miller, in honor of our old friend the river editor of the Daily Cormnercial. Air. Miller thus alludes to it : Capt. Newt. Robinson's new steamer, C. D. Miller, arrived from Gallipolis and Portsmouth, yesterday, ladened principally with iron and.ialt. She discharget the bulk of her iron over at Covington, and reships 300 barrels of salt on the ladonia, for the Wabash river. The Miller was built at ' , Portfimonth, and is a neat craft. with ca pacity for 300 tuns. She is propelled by four screws, and draws very little water. We tip our beaver to Capt. Robinson. in return for the compliment paid us in the name of his new steamer. Military Executions. The first military executions took place on Johnson Island, last Friday, William Corbin and T.. P. McGraw being the vie. time, having been found guilty of carrying - , mails and giving information to the rebels. The Mansfield Herald, whose editor was present at the execution, says: The prisoners were then blindfolded, -the Provost Marshal gave the necessary command to the execution party, and at - precisely twenty five minutes of 2 o'clock, McGraw and Corbin paid the penalty of their acts. The firing was instantaneous, ,ao that the sixteen muskets seemed to make but one report. Thu men both fell back upon their coffins, and died without 6 Struggle. :Corbin did not move a muscle McGraw gasped twice. * -Nothing occurred to derange the order or mar the solemnity or impressiveness of the occasion. The firing was worthy of note.- The execution party consisted of 82 men, divided into four quads, two of the squads being reserve. The sixteen -Aaots fired, eight at each man, seemed as the dot of one man. In the 15 muskets there were fourteen balls and forty-two hockshot, being seven balls and twenty one buckshat for each of the condemned. Upon examination of the bodies, it was 'found that 28 balls and shot had taken 'effect in the breast of each, within the cir cle of a few inches. - Distressing Accident A. melancholy accident, resulting in the death of a young lad aged 13 years. named Thos. Patterson occurred at the blacking mill of Mr. Lowry in the Fifth Ward. The mill is on Liberty street between Walnut and O'Hara streeta, and is a place where coal is ground to make black dust for moulders to use in their flasks in order that they may make a smooth Casting, and to prevent the sections of the moulds from sticking together. The boy was working in the mill, and was caught hetween the stones as they were in mo tiolN and before he could be rescued his legs - -ere torn off, a large piece taken •. out of _ h. 's side, and a piece out of his a k u mN otu -itatanding his terrible inju ries,' to utu . v i v :kd half an hour, during which time he was completely sensible of his coniition. and toi.: l his weeping moth erikat he would die.

A meeting of wool growers was held in Cadiz, Ohio, last Saturday, and the fol lowing resolutions were passed : RESOLVED, That it is for the interest of wool-growers to establish a uniform price thoughont the country, and for this pur pose a price should be established by this meeting, and a corresponding committee appointed to confer with other sections of the country. RESOLVED, That in the opinion of this meeting, the medium wool of this county should bring one dollar per pound this season, and that we will use our exertions to obtain that price. The question of the propriety of clip ping sheep without washing was taken up by the meeting, and after thorough die mission, it was generally agreed that it would be to the advaLtege of wool-grow ers, not only in a monetary point of view. but would save the grower the very disa greeable task of washing sheep; and also save the sheep the injuries incurred by washing; and as an expression of their feelings on this subject, the following reso• lotion was adopted ; RESOLVED, That we agitate this ques tion continually until we abolish the wash ing of sheep. It was resolved by the meeting that five cents should be the highest price paid for clipping stock sheep. The Zanesville Times, in a sensible arti • cle in regard to the demand for wool and the profits made by eastern speculators. says; _ As the wool buying season approaches we have a word or two of advice to give those who have this precious article for sale. Wool is going to bring good prices this season, as the scarcity of cotton and the amount required for the manufacture of soldiers' blankets and clothing will make a large demand. It is but fair that the producers should receive a share pf the profits annually Wade on the wool by eastern buyers, and this season we think that farmers will lose nothing by holding their wool until they receive a compensa tion for it equal to its present value. In sel ling their wool farmers should demand U. S. "greenbacks": in payment, and take nothing else. ;Eastern manufacturers send their agents oat here in the west to buy np the wool and pay for it notes on eastern banks, many of which are altogether worthless, or at least at a considerable discount. Mach of the eastern money in circulation in the west is counterfeit, and it is greatly inferior to the currency fur nished by the government. Let it be clearly understood that wool can be bought for no other but "greenbacks' or notes on our State bank, and dealers will pay that kind of money. We think these two suggestions are worthy of consideration. A Pittsburgher Abroad.

Ward, who was last summer de feated by James Hamill, of Pittsburgh, in two races, in a dialling match en the Schuylkill, again throws down the gaunt let and challenges Hamill for a race on the Hudson for $5OO a side, the race to come off early in July. We do not know what Mr. Hamill's views may be, but as Ward seems desirous for a "fair field and no favor, amiss Hamill is now champion, would it have been any thing more than just for him to have said something about "defraying expenses," or at least have come half way to meet him ? Five hen • dred dollars, even if Hamill were to win it, would scarcely pay the expenses of the trip. John Lutz Pardoned A dispatch was received from the Gov ernor stating that John Lutz, who was convicted of the murder of R. O'Leary in Jane, 1857, was pardoned.

In all of these the following have been captured; Granite City, St. John, N'icholas, Ist Gertrude, Thistle, Duoro and Dolphin. The Ocean Queen, Stonewall Jackson and Georgiana, have been driven on shore, and the Mica has been long absent and is supposed to have been lost at sea; thus , disposing of eleven, The names of these vessels are often changed, which conveys the impression that the number ergaged in the trade is larger than it really is.— Thus the Stonewall Jackson was the Leopard, the Victory was Wagner. and before that the Annie Childs; the Thistle was called the Cherokee, while the 'lase lock is now called the Beauregard. The same letter states that blockade running not so active as formerly. The price of freights have become greatly enhanced within the last two months. The United Slates Attorney for the Dis trict of Columbia denies the truth of the published statement that measures are in progress for the seizure under the confis cation act of the real and personal estate of Mr. Corcoran, the banker,.
