Robbery of the Adams Express Com pany.--On the night of the Ist of September last the office and safe of the Adams Express Company at Grafton were entered by means of false keys and the safe robbed of most of its money contents. As soon as this was known in Baltimore by telegraph, with the promptness and energy which is characteristic of the Com pany, their attorney was dispatched to this city, and on his arrival found that the money taken consisted of $260 and a package said to con tain $12,000, sent by the company for one Arthur Easley from Wheeling so Grafton, and addressed to himself at the latter place. The agent of the company soon came to the conclusion that this large package was bogus, and that the robbery was part of a plan to defraud the company. Resley, though in Wheeling, made no personal demand for his package, but put 'hie false claim Into the hands of one of the roost respectable Attorneys in our city, who called upon the at torney of the company at his hotel and demand ed payment. He was informed that in order to enable the company to pay the claim three points must be established to their satisfaction. vie: First, as to the kind and denomination of the money the package contained; second, as to where and from whom it was procured; and third, proof by some disinterested, reliable per son or persona that the sum of {12,000 in good money was actually put into the package and delivered to the company's agent. No attempt was made to furnish this Information until about the Ist of October, when the affidavits were made and sent to the company's attorney in Baltimore, the character of which only served to demonstrate the correctness of the conclu sion arrived at by the counsel that Healey's package was bogus and that the robbery was part of the plan to defraud, and that it was com mitted by him or his accomplices. On the night of the sth of October the office and safe at Oration were again entered and robbed of a package known to aoorain 315.000 in ir2o notes of the First National Bank of Pitts burgh, a De l i issue, and some $6OO in other packages and 13;. , ae money. The coon any, im• medtately atter the first robbery, had given or ,era nut to use the same safe again, wtich, in consequence of tho Baltimore and Ohio railroad being cut, they could not replace But through a pure misunderstanding or auel.tient, one of the employees put this largo package and other money into the sate on the night of the robbery, the agent at Grafton being at that time to Bal timore on business. ..as soon as the company was informed of the second robbery by telegraph, Allen Pinkerton, tne chief of the National Detective Agency (whose headquarters are at Chicago) the most tellable and skillful detector of mime in this country, who has for years past been employed by the Express Company with invariable suc cess in detecting the various heavy robberies committed upon them, took charge of the mat ter and, as usual, soon recovered the inoney,and apprehending every one connected in any way with the robbery, and on Tuesday hesley, Ab ner Vlarks and Charles Meredith were commit_ ted to the jail at Fairmont for the crime, they (the prisoners ) having made to the Baltimore attorney of the company, who, in connection with Mr. Deepard, of Clarksburg, represent. d the company, a full and truthful eouleanlon of the manner in which the robbery was planned and executed. It appears from their confessions that Bealey, who has hitherto been an honest Sholte weak man, and who belongs to a most highly respectable family, and whose brother is held in the highest esteem by all who know him . through his dissipated habits became acquaint ed with Marks and Meredith,who were partners in a drinking and gambling saloon at Grafton, and men of known bad character, and led on by the bad company and bad Whisky with which he was surrounded, he confederated with them in the planning and execution of the robbery, and atter meaty ingeniously conceived attempts dui lag the past summer they at last succeeded, as has been stated They, as well as other more astute and der_ perste robbers who are incarcerated In various penitentiaries throughout the country, know that the energy, influence and liberal expendi ture of money on the mut of the company, in connection with the skill, courage and indomi table perseverance which Mr. Pinkerton and his corps of trained detectives always act, are more than a match for criminals, no matter how wily and deep their plans may be or how success ful their accomplishment. The company, we understand, have never yet failed to detect and• punish persona who have robbed them. Whet:- ing Register. Weekly Review of the Oil Business —The Oil City Register says: The market has been active for the past week, with the demand rather in excess of the supply. Prices have been fully maintained. We give as the ruling rates 610 Wall per barrel at the wells and ;II 76 al2 at this point. Both river and creek have fallen considerably since our last report. There Is now only 26 inches in the steamboat - channel, and falling. The creek la still in good order for towing. The demand for oil lanes still continues briak,and every foot of ground that has &greasy surface look is eagerly sought after. The amount of property or this kind, as well as oil interests, that have changed hands in the past few weeks is unprecedentedly large. • Mining operations are active, and we shall ex pect to report the striking of some good wells before a great while. Many of the Eastern oil companies have excellent oil lands in this reg ion, which if developed would richly repay them. But the class we speak of seem to be more anxious to sell their stocks than to devel-. ope their lands. We don't want to particular. *se. Stockholders are the parties interested most, and should apply the remedy promptly. The standard oil companies have not puraueu this line of policy, but have *veloped lands and let their stock go into Into the market upon its merits. The market closes Quiet and prices are Arai. Freights to Pittsburgh 76 cents per barrel. FataJ Railroad Atchtent.—A. distressing accident, which afterwards proved fatal, occur red on Thursday altunoon about four o'clotit on the line of the Oonnellsville railroad. As the express train was proceeding east at its us ual rate of speed, a short distance above Mc- Keesport, the engineer observed a man walking on the track a ffliortdist mace ahead of the train After giving the usual signal he attempted to stop the train, brit the man did not clear the track, and before the engine could be stopped he was struck by the cow -catcher and pitched off the track. As soon as amitstance could be brought It was found that the man, who proved to be 001. George A. Bayard, was very badly in jured, having an arm broken and receiving in ternal injuries of a very serious nature. Mr. Bayard, was conveyed to his residence, on Ala .quippa farm on the Youghiogheny river, and there lingered until yesterday forenoon, when death ensued. The deceased was one of the old. eel and wealthiest citizens of the county, and had been for some time afflicted with partial deafness and loss of memory, which probably acoonnts for the sad accident. Oil Excitement to Vgaabitzugtozi.—We understand that since the electio.n.the greatest excitement prevails in Washingeon, Pa., on the snidest of 021.

It Is a matter of congratulation that a gentle man so thoroughly acquainted with this busi ness In all its details as Mr. MoOlelland has ta ken hold of this matter and will conduct it on liberal andiaccommodating principles. ost Internal Revenue DeCiliOlL—lt has been decided by the Commissioner of Internal Reven ue that persons selling Drake's Planation or Rostetter's Bitters must pty a monthly tax of one -sixth of one per cent upon their circula tion above their average for six months prior to July 1, 1861, notwithstanding the increase may arise from increased capital. The first sensation Is usually a feeling of dry tdness and heat innose, and a e icline.- on to sneezing. , There is an inafrbilityquent to br n eathe freely, as the nose becomes stopped u some times on one side and sometimes on the other. Soon a clear, watery, acrid discharge makes its appearance, excoriating the nostrils and edges of the lips, which become red and somewhat swollen. Alter a few days the discharge be comes thick, yellowish, extremely frequent, and continues to be a marked feature of the disease. and a source of much danger and the greatest annoyance. After more or less time it becomes purulent, highly offensive, and assumes an ex tremely fetid odor. It is usually so profuse as to require, when confined to the nose the fre quent application of the handkerchiel, or if it drops into the throat, which is more particularly the case, while the body Is in a horizontal posi• non, constant expectoration and sometimes both, Sleep is frequently disturbed by a sensation of choking, caused by the presence of the discharge in the throat. Owing to the heat in the beau, the watery portion of the secretion often ev Apo rates, and assuming a condition of solidity is deposited upon the membrane of the nose and upper part of the throat, in the shape 01 crusts or hardened lumps. The accumulation of these incrustations produces a feeling of diseointort, and narrows the nasal passages so as to em barrass respiration. Therefore, frequent efforts have to be made to remove them, eitherby forci bly blowing the nose, or by persistent hawking —a ractice ae disagieeable to the one affected as Itis to those around him. After ti.eremovai, that side of the incrustation which adhered to the mucous membrane will sometimes be found bloody, a fact which explains the force required for its dislodgement. !luring sleep thews in crustations accumulate more rapidly, and the feeling is therelore most uncomfortable In the morning; BOSS times ail efforts to clear the throat ate futile until atter break teat, or some thing warm is swallows t. Some patients state that they are not suc cessful until they hare swallowed some whisky or brandy. The discharge, which is at lust without smell, assumes in the progresa tit tt,e complaint go excessively fetid odor the tit, a; ti participates In this, and becomes occasionally revoltingly offenaive as to render the patient au object ol disgust to himself as well as to other, Urceration of the mucous membrane of the nose takes place frequently, sometimes even at tacking the bones, when small particles of that substance will occasionally be found mixed .

NEw YOB; December 2.—The Her ald's Natchez correspondence of the 21st ult., gives an account of rebel operations along the Red river, in Louisiana, and particularly at and around Alexandria. The rebel Gen. Buckner commands in that region, and has his headquarters at Alexandria, where additional forn,idable defensive works have been erected for the purpose of rendering it impossible for the Union gunboats to again ascend Red river. The dams which • General Bailey constructed to release the fleet accompanying General Banks' army have been used to form a part of these fortifications, and apparently with good effect for the rebel designs. In all the country as far around Alex andria as General Buckner's authority reaches an indiscriminate and merciless conscription of all the male inhabitants is enforced. Old men and young boys, foreigners and natives, the liables and the exempts, are alike gathered to swell the ranks of the rebel armies. The Herald's New Orleans correspon dent furnishes additional confirmation of the recent report that Allen, the rebel Governor of Louisiana, had organized ten regiments of negroes at Shreveport. At present they are employed in strengthening the defences of that place, but are instructed in the regular military drill, and Allen expects soon to receive authority from Richmond for putting them into the rebel armies. The Union General Lee, in his offi cial report of his late successful cavalry expedition into the interior of Louisiana, says that he had strong tight at Liberty, and captured two hundred prisoners, in cluding twenty-five officers, two pieces of artillery, between six and eight hun dred horses, and a number of negroes, and destroyed immense rebel army stores on the railroad• Southern News. NEW Volta, December 2.—Piles of Georgia papers up to the 25th, and Richmond papers to the 29th, are re ceived. While Sherman is no doubt steadily advancing across the State of Georgia in full accordance with the pro gramme which he prepared before leav• ing Atlanta, if the judgement was form ed of his movements by the records of these frightened newspaper men, we might consider his course very erratic. His army is omnipresent, and then again it is nowhere. It is here, there, and everywhere. Stretching its terrific lines across the State, and anon it has vanished entirely. Richmond papers of last Tuesday say that the rebels still occupy Macon, and that nu Saturday last Sherman hail not approached Augusta. It is claimed fm the fiftieth time that Kilpatrick's caval ry were repulsed at the Oconee river on the 21st, The Augusta Citron/1e says that on the same day, the Yankees left the line 01 the Georgia railroad, going south ward, which means that General Slo 14; Was moving his column to form a j D-et ion with that of Howard.

Execution of Franz Muller aNCo., dro., aro. Nesavium, Dec. 1--I have received full accounts of the late battle at Frank lin, which must be chronicled, as the most brilliant in its general results of the For three days sharp skirmishing was kept up during the retirement of our ar my from Duck river to Franklin, during which time a multiplicity of exploits and successes,k resulted to the natio nal arms. General Cox conducted the rear guard on the 29th ult., and acheiv ed a splended victory over the rebels at Springhill, while General Wilson's cav alry gained the series of important successes over Forrest's advance, under Roddy, on the pike between Waine and Springhill. During the evening of the 30th ult., the rebel army sorely pressed us under Hood who had Cheatham's and Stew- art's corps, and a portion of Dick Tay lor's command, numbering in all over 2,200 men. Owing to General Cox's gallant check at Shringhill, a p onion of the 40th and 23d corps were enabled to gain Frank lin early that day, where they threw up a line of breastworks extending from one end to the other of the curves in the river behind which our entire infantry command took position at precisely 4 o'clock P.
