HENRY D. POSTER
We want no better evidence of the alarm
pervading the Republican ranks in this
State at the prospect that the Union of the
Democratic party will secure the election
of Henry D. Foster, than the attacks made
upon that gentlemen since the meeting of
the Democratic Committee at Cresson. All
at once the Republican press has opened
its batteries of denunciation and de
traction against our candidate for Gov
ernor, and Mr. Curtin has been spurred in
to unwonted activity by the alarming pro
gress that Gen. Foster is making in the af
fections of the people. It is too late, gen
tlemen Republicans! You cannot stem
the tide which is carrying lien. Foster into
the.Uubernatortal chair—and least of all
can you stay its progress by the disreputa
ble means you have adopted. It there isa
man in the State whose character should
shield him from the reckless assaults of
politicians, that man is Henry D. Foster.
His life is unstained by a single act dis
creditable to epublic man. Where he is
best known he is regarded with unexam
pled esteem and affection. We doubt
whether there ever was a man in Pennsyl
vania who attached to him more devoted
friends than Mr. Foster.' Theiihole west
ern country is ringing with his praise.—
Without once having done an act to court
public applause, without using any, of the
arts of the politiCian or the demagogue. he
has won substantial regard by his many
high and enduring qualities. No man ever
dared to accuse him of an ungenerous or a
dishonest action. it is well known that
hi, scrupulous honesty and the generosity
of his nature has absorbed the earnings of
a profession in which he has no superior;
and yet, strange to say, the leanness of his
purse is the principle accusation which his
enenfies bring against him. Certain charg
es have been truniped up, through the in
strumentality of John Covode, who, insti
gated by the enimily which little men feel
for great minds, attempted to torture cer
tain testimony taken before the Covode
Committee to Gen. Fosters discredit. This
testimony amounts to nothing, except so
far twit disproves the insinuations that Mr.
Foster received aid from Mr. Witte to en
able him to carry on the congressional
campaign in lisss against I 'ovode s , If he
ha- been assisted by his political friends
we do no see that it would tend to his dis
credit, considering that he was running
against a man who could spend his thou
sands without depleting a well filled purse.
If the enemies of Mr. Foster expect to
insure him before the public they must use
heavier artillery than this. His character
is too well established toisuffer from such
assaults. You must use some other wea l ,-
on than a popgun to kill an eagle. 'flit'
people have already taken the measure of
Gen. Foster, and pronounced it up to the
liubernational standard. They are also
tolerably familiar with the career of Col.
Curtin. They have not forgotten his con
nection with the Pollock administration,
and not a few persons have a vivid recol
lection of some of his operations as Secre
tary of the Commonwealth. He was noin
inatedby a legislative cabal composes! of
men who tkierstood their own interests,
and who nervNwere known to come out
losers at the end of a session. An atmos
phere of distrust surrounds him, which all
his oratory cannot dispel. His political
position is confusing and confounding.—
Having abandoned the American party, of
which he wag a prominent leader, lie is
obliged to swallow Lincoln and the four
teenth plank of the Chicago platform with
the best grace that he can. In so doing he
has disgusted and repelled many .of his
former friends, who are now his active ene
mies. These circumstances have all con
spired to weaken him before the people tp
such a degree that we hazard nothing in
saying that thousassis of the Opposition in
this State will cast their votes in tkAober
next for Henry 1). Foster, whose assailants
may as well resign themselves to the fact
—which every day is making more appar
ent—that he will be elected Governor of
Pennsylvania.—Har. Union.
,a• Still they come! The Luzerne Union,
published at the home of Col. H. B. Wright,
the President of the 26th of July Conven
tion, accedes to the Cresson compromise.
The papers that hold out against it at* few
indeed. The straight-out movement has
been whittled down to almost nothing.—
Democrats are not so easily transferred to
the Republicans as certain persons imag_

jib all the subdlty ft* which
if is no ed, e union of the entire Dem
ocratic party of the State on the Electoral
ticket formed by the Reading Conventian.
It is in a degree presumptions on the part
of Mr. Forney to step back into the Demo
cratic party, uninvited, and attempt to con
trol its action. ft - is becoming more and
more apparent every day that the Press is
secretly working for the overthrow of the
Democratic party iu this State. The signs
of the times clearly indicate that the pe
riod is not very remote when Forney will
tollow in tie footsteps of his illustrious
leader. Hickman, and land openly and
above-board in the Black Republican ranks.
It will be a lucky day for the Democracy
when they get rid of him and his treason
able scheming. While he professes to sup
port Judge Douglas he is straining every
sinew to circumvent him, and hopes the
party will be "gratified" with a ''clean vic
tory or a clean defeat," he is not at all
particular which it may be. In order.
however, to make sure of a "clean defeat"
for the party, he publishes a call in the
Press for a fleeting, at Harrisburg, on the
15th last., to get up an electoral ticket in
opposition to the regular ticket formed by
the Reading i ',invention. If he secwes
the attendance of a baker's dozen of [Dem
ocrats, other than of his own kidney, at
the bogus meeting, called for the 15th, we
will have a poorer opinion of the Democrt
ic party of Pennsylvania than we ever ex
pected to entertain. •
StAyr Isscaaarriosi Vianixi.L.—The
Richmond Despatch states that a conspir
acy was foftned one day last week, by the
slaves of Mr. H. Hairston, a wealthy farm
er of lialifax county, Va., to murder his
overseer. After stating that six of theta
induced the overseer to accompany them
to the woods, where they alleged a party
of slaves were preparing for an insurrec
tion, the Despatch says:
The negroes led the way until getting
into theforest, when they suddenly stor
ped near a newly dug pit, when the spokes
man confronted him, and, pointing to the
hole, said to him : "There, you d—d son
of a b—h, is your grave. You have but
fifteen minutes to make your peace with
God, or land in hell." Quick as thought
the overseer drew his Colt's revolver, kill
ed four of the ruffians dead at hir feet, and
shot the fifth one in the abdomen, seeing
which, the sixth man took to his heels
through the woods, and the overseer hav
ing no other weapon, he escaped. The im
pression prevails that the six negroes had
determined to murder the overseer, because
of some deserved punishment one or more
of them had received, and laid the above
plaas to get hitn off in the woods to effect
their ends. Hisnee of mind in tak
ing his pistol, ancr his coolness in the hour
of danger, when no white person was nigh
to aid him, doubtless saved him from a
horrid death.
stir The Forney-Halderman State Ex
ecutive Committee, appointed by authority
of a mass meeting held at Harrisburg, met
in that borough on the 15th inst., and sat
with closed doors. The proceedings have
not been made public, further than that
t bey have determined on fortning a straight
out Forney disorganizing ticket. Forney
is determined the State shall be carried for
Lincoln, and is using Douglas' name to do
it with, that's evident.
Pr The editor of the Centre Democrat,
who warmly sustains the Republican nom.
ineea, and recently paid a visit to Atlantic
City, thus alludes to the Hon. Henry D.
Foster, whom he met at that place. We
commend it to the perusal of some of the
politicians of this section:
"We arewe are in a hostile
position tow ards l Gen. as ter, for we like
him very much, and come what may, no
word or abuse shall escape our lips when
Apeaking of him, nor will we stand by and
hear him traduced by any one. The man
who maligns,him in our presence, will be
told be is mitaken ; if he repeats his abuse,
he will be to d he is a liar ; and if he reit
erates a thi time what we know to be
lathe, %se will smash his teeth down his
t hroat ."

mittee at Cresson, on the 9th inst., and ac

single electoral ticket, as the one best fit
ted to secure the vote of Pennsylvania for
Stephen A. Douglas and Herschel V. John

at the head as candidates, in place of Doug

by the editor. The junior editor did it, it
seems, in the absence of the senior, and he
tells the story as follows :
"We, the junior editor of this paper, be

not be elected Presdident of these United
Stater. In regard to the voteof New York,
J. W. Sheehan, Esq., Editor of the Chica
go Than, the confidential friend of Judge
Douglas, ,clio speaks whew he knows, says :
"For the satisfaction of our readers and
the public generally, we can say that to
make assunnice dm/My sure, and to place the
result beyond ail nmtingency, there have
been and are now arrangements making
which will give the vote of New York
against Mr. Lincoln. That result will be
accomplished beyond all question ; the
vote of that State will never be cast for
Lincoln. New York will not only vote
against him, but will give a nutiOrityof ar
ty thousand against him. His election is, there
fore, an ascertained impossibility. The failure
to receive the thirty-five votes of the State,
will exclude the possibility of his election ;
he has no other State to fall back upon 'to
make good the deficiency. When we say
that the vote of New York will not be' giv
en to Lincoln, we do not speak unadvised

Letter From Land of Grease.
Fnim the Pittsburgh Poet.)
FRANKLIN, Auitnit 18th, 1,40/.
c
In an last notes of travel in modern
grease, prolised 'to ere some account of
the well el Titusville on Oi/Creek. I
visited these yesterday in co y with
Mr. Strati, ofMittehurgh, and iskj. Epley,
of Franklin, tom' Fain muds indebted
for valuable iaornintion.
As we drove from the town towards the
creek, we met Mr. E. L. Drake, the man
who gave the first impetus to this new gi
gaptic business by opeping the first well,
and soon afterwards came in sight of his
wait, the "Pioneer" and another bored
since. They are on the creek, a mile and
three-quarters below the town. The first,
which threw out thirty or forty barrels a
day when first opened, is now being pump
ed and yields eight or ten barrels a day.—
The other is just ready for pumping, and
promises to do as well, if not better. op
erations have been suspended for some
time, owing to misunderstandings between
the Rock Oil Company who purchased the
land on which the wells are situated, and
the Seneca Oil Company, who leased from
the former a portion of it, and in both Mr
Drake has an ifiterest. The difficulties
have, as I learn, been . adjusted,and opera
tions will he re-commenced with more ac•
tivity.
Passing down the creek about half a
mile, we crossed over to the Crossley Well,
1311 feet deep, owned by Crossley, NV it lierop
co. It was pumping a large stream of
water, with very little oil, not more i ban
four barrels per day. The yield now aver
ages eight barrels per day, though when
th e ein was struck, one hundred :111.1
eight barrels were pumped out daily for a
week.
Returning to the other side of the cret•k,
we found two men boring in the welt 01
Epley, Martin & Co. They had reached :t
depth of 1'25 feet, and had excellent Intl'
cations. The kx)le and cable, when drawn
up from the hole, were very grea-sy for set -
enty feet, and a quart. of oil could easily
have been scraped oft Near by, Eaton /t
l'o., at a depth I% feet, have a fair show
of oil. Guignon & Co., of Sugar tlrove,
Warren county, hate bored 60 feet, with
out any good indications.
Some twenty rods above, we found an
excellent well but recently opened, that of
M. A. Plumer & Co. It is 14t) leetldeep,
and yield, with a very inferior engine, that
works only about twelve hours in twenty
four, fifty to severity-five barrels
NVe next crossed to a small island in the
creek, with an area of something over two
acre.. On the main-land we observed sev
eral old oil pits, supposed to have been used
by the indutns or early French settlers for
gathering petroleum fifty or a hundred
years ago, and on stirring up the oil at tlo•
edge of the creek, large blotches of pure
oil and bubbles of gas came up to the sur
face. These `•rurface indications" are the
best I have seen in the oil region, and from
appearances on the island tt is probable
that every well now being bored will yield
a good supply of oil. The only well pump
ing is that of J. P. Fowler & Co., feet.
It. has been pumping only two'days,. and
yields some eighteen barrels. M. S. Adams•
Esq., formerly of Maple Furnace, has leased
the entire island, and is one of the firm
named above. The sub-leases are held by
Bliss, Wright A, Co., of Chautauqua county,
N. V., who are boring two wells, one at I-Fl
feet with a good show of oil, and one at (I)
feet with no show. Bridget. Ridgeway, A,
Co., of Franklin, 12;1 feet, good show, and
.lames Race, & t 0., of Iluason. N Y , with
a good show, at 116 feet.
On the mainland below, a good many
wells are going down, but none very deep,
and as each. well has its shanty of rough
boards attached, the vicinity presents the
appearance of a small colony, or a Califor
nia mining town.
1- I ,everal wells are being bored just above
Titusville, on Oil Creek. I)n‘., of these, the
property of Horner, Clossin & Co., has been
bored over 44.)0 feet deep, with a good show
of oil. J. T. WCombs, of Pittsburg, is one
of the firm.
Returning to Titusville, we met several
gentlemen from Tideoute; on the Alleg
heny river, thirty three miles above Frank
lin, where the oil fever is very high, one
evidence of which, is that on Thanklay at
least one hundred oil sites in that vicinity
were leased, the land owners receiving a
large bonus in cash, in addition-to half - the
oil pumped up. This excitement was oc
casimed by the striking of a most prolific
vein of oil on the 10th inst., and some five
others since. We could not visit the local
ity, and gfilhered all the reliable informa
tion possible, which I will give you.
The "Hackenburg" wtell excells any
thing yet discovered. On the 10th, while
one man was at work at the hole, then 115
feet deep, the oil was thrown up at least
twenty feet. The man, to save the oil.
placed a board on the top of the conduc
tor, but so great was the pressure of oil
and gas that his weight did not "avail to
keep the oil from running over. The hole
was plugged up, and whenever opened a
stream, four inches in diameter, of almost
pure oil, was thrown to a considerable
height. On Wednesday. the plug was re
moved and the well threw out thirty bar
rels in forty minutes. This would Is , 1,040
barrels a day, without a pump, but it is
scarcely possible for such an enormous
flow to continue. On the same day the
well discharged, through all inch pipe, in
serted in-the plug, fifteen barrels of oil,
mixed with water in twenty two minutes.
It is not much wonder that with such a
well the oil excitement should run high at
Tideoute.
On the island, at Tideoute. Rodgers
Hall have struck a vein at 1'25 feet, which.
promises an immense yield, but not as great
as the Heckenburg. At the Waters' well,
a short distance above the Monster Well,
oil has also been struck. The Vosburg Well,
on the opposite side of the river, 14Q feet
deep, is pumping, and; yields thirty to for
ty barrels of oil per day. This is on a tract
adjoining that owned by W. W.. Wallace of
Pittsburg. On his farm the King Well is
yielding, with a small pump, ten barrels
per day. i in Friday a large vein was open
ed on the next farm below, which promis
es to yield abundantly. From every indi
cation here, it is apparent that the yield of
oil iu the vicinity of. Tideoutewill be great
er than any other locality now being op
erated.
IfsTaisimi..—A brief and doubly sad
case of love, courtship, marriage and de
sertion took place, as We are informed, in
one of the wbortleherry swamps a few miles
distant from this place, a few days since.—
Two young ladies, of whose names we are
not informed, were tnet by three men,
equally as strange to us, When a spontane
ous feeling of admiration and love seemed
toSaianifest itself between the two and two
—the third representing himself a preach
er of the gospel. The courtship, though
brief, resulted:in an engagement with the
two young men each to take one under
his lifelong protection, and then or there
be joined in the holy bonds for "wea[ or
wo," to tread through the ups and -downs
of life's slippery path together, and share
with each other the happiness that seem
ed to brighten up before them in the dis
tance of years. But, "A: is ft/I rarity
of Christian charity;" their hont : loon was
asbriefas their courtship, and taker merg
ing into civilization, where some respect
to law and system is observed, the espoused
failed to be recognised longer as partners
of the joys, feelings and pride of their liege
lords, who had been married 'just in fun,"
not being aware of the validity of such a
contract. The bogus divine had left, for
parts unknown, and the other two are un
der arrest to' appear for trial tkmorrow.

One of the remarkable sights on the 4th

it was literally covered all over with bees,
busy at work, going in and out at the or

that had been made within twelve hours.
In his hand he held the queen bee, which
