Acting Ensign 'Bone, about whom there
has been so much gossip of late, we learn!
from a seaman attached 'to the United
States steamer Michigan, is still confined
en board that vessel, thceigh he is not
kept in irons as is generally reported. He
is not restricted to any part of the ship,
and is on deck every day. No persons
outside of theboat's crew are permitted to
converse with him, and several applica
tions of psrties living in the city have
been denied. We have been unable to
ascertain the official charges against 11 , m.
His arrest is the mutt of the naval court
of inquiry held here suave weeks ago, but

its system of arhttrary arrests, No person
in the city has rejliatid more over the im
prisonment of Democrats without legal
°barge or tr al than he, and he has often
been heard to si - xpreas a regret ,that the
Federal officials had not been more harsh

political enernielt "Curses, like chick :
'ens, come home to roost,'! and we cam:,
mend this case to our Republican friends
as one that is worth pondering over and

We do not want to be misunderstood,
however. It is a tarthrigickt or every Amex

Democrats, and we shall insist upon it for
all, high and h", rich and peor,cionserve

guihy of permitting a partisan difference
to cause us to lose eight of great princi

the severest punishment; if innocent, he
should not be held under arrest a mo

There are now two peace missionaries
from the North in Richmond—lir r. P.
31air, of Maryland, - and Gen. J. W. Sin-'
gletob, of Illinois. Neither of these, ao
cording to the New York . Tribune, which
We take • to be reliable authority on the
question, is in any respect 'a representative
.of the administration, but, both have gone
on their personal account, to see for‘them
'elves what the revolutionary leaders will
accept,' having first obtained the consent
of our government. We are free to ex
press our belief that DO important results
will attend their efforts. The Northern
people, by re-electinghir. Lincoln, cut off
the only hope that was left of .obtaining
an honorable peace by negotiation, and
now.the only termination of the conflict
that is to be hid lies through the terrible
ordeal of the battle field. So long as either
Abraham Lis xiltt remains at the head of
the United States Government, or Jdrar
son Davis at the head of the Confederates,.
there is no chance of obtaining a cessa
tion of the war,_ for neither 7 111 make

denouncing the Confederacy. All these
stories originated'with the Savannah Re

suddenly converted to Administration
principles, is noted for but one thing—a
remarkable facility for falsehood. As the

A suit in equity has biien entered in
the -Supreme Court of Pennicylvania by
William M. Meredith, Attorney General,
against the Atlantic & Great Western
railroad company,: to teat the question
whether the eompany has not violated and
in ,consequence Jost its charter. - The'
grofinds of the proceeding are as folleirs :
That by the sot of incorporation the com
pany, then called the "Meadville railroad
company." have the right to construct w
railroad from Meadville to tkie city of Erie,
by the best route or by connection with
any other railroad in the county of Erie,.
and, also,to one or more coal fields in the
county of Mercer. The company were
required to make equal cPuhections and
afford equal facilities to the Philadelphia
& Erie railroad as it makes with and af
fords to any other railroad. ? The compsi.;
tly were further empowered to connect
with any railroad running to or, from
Warren or Mercer counties. The Atter
hey General claims that:before theine.or
poration of the Atlantic & Great Western
company, in 1857, the guage of the Phila
delphia h Erie railroad had been fixed at
four feet eight and one-half inches, and ,
that the Philadelphia road had been part
ly constructed, and that the A. 8-. G. W.
railroad company is constructing its road
of a wider guage has violated its charter
by thus discriminating against
_Pennsyl
vania roads, and in favor ot the roads of
New York and Ohio ; that tile & G,.
W. company has not built its ;road trout
Meadville to the city of Erie, hut has con
structed and now operates 0,310 ad from
New York through Warren, Erie, Craw
ford and Aterer counties to the Ohio lake,
and'at the State line has connected and
is operating with roads of- the States of
New York. That the same company with
out authority or franchise is eonstrueting
roads to Franklin and Oil City,
.and from
the State line of. Ohio to and down the
Shenango river and. French Creak.. It
-has long been manifest that the object of
the A. ti G. W. railroad was simply an
extension of the New York A Erie rail
road through Pennsylvania; and it ap
pears that without 'any chartered rigiits
for this purpose they have carried oat
their intenta regardless of the main fel
• tures of their charter,which was the mak
, ingot tue roast from ales auto w t,< ,
of Erie. This is very properly resisted' by •
the Attorney General of the State, backed
by the recommendation of the Governor
in his Message. ! This high•hautled disi.e
gard of the 'rights and interests •of
thel city of Erie, es guarded by the
charier of the A. & G. W. road, will, it is
hoped, be properly. ielouked by a decree
of the Suprene Court; and„it is also
hoped, in the mean time, no supine indif
ference of the citizens.ol - Erie or their
representatives will•give color to any sup
position that we are uninterested. in the
issue. We have already sueered quite
enough for the benefit of neighboring
States and cities to make it worth while
to preserve the remains °f l ail& advanta
ges as our locality naturally- should afford
us. Szi.r-;'suraOrioa.

A correspondent of the Philadelphia
Aga has been on a visit to the oil regions,
and gives the following acoount of what
he saw
- Corry is a; town which three years ago
wad not in existence ; it now has a popu
lation of over four thousand inhabitants,
and the new frame houses add stumps of •
trowel affecd aufficiaat -evidence. to the ob
server of tu
its recent rtn. Three rat ways
center here—the Philadelphia and Erie,
the Atlantic and Great Western, and the
Oil Creek. Land sold here three years
ago for $2 to $2 50 per acre is now worth
$l,OOO. The principal attraction here is
the refinery, the rro,perty of a Boston
gentleman, worth $500,000 ; cost $175,000.
It employs 175 men, paying $1 75 to $ 3
per day. It refines about 1.00 barrels per
day, consuming 250 barrels of crude oil.
* • . 0 The railroads which connect
here make Corry a lively place—about 30
trains a day, pass and leave here. Here
we first- begin to see that we are in the
land of oil. Machinery of all kinds for
boring, pumping, tubing, engines, tubing
connecting rods, oil barrels and barrels of
oil at every step. The crowded station
house, the.oil talk, the talk of thousands
of dollars es if they were cents, the ex
cited individuals, all convince us that we
' - are on the outer edge of the maelstrom of
oil and treasure. * * Haring spent
some three hours here, we took the Oil
Creek railroad. This railroad is a six feet
guage at present, an trues through Titus
ville to Shaffer's farm, on the creek; the
guage, is the same as ;the Great Western,
and they stock the road, but it.: has been
lately purchased, we were informed, as far
down as Oil City., by the Pennsylvania
railroad, tis..y giving its former owner,
Dr. Streeter, $5 for every $3 it cost him.
1 1 It iS said it is to be altered to the guage
of the Philadelphia and Erie, which latter
the Pennsylvania Company have leased
for 09 years. Having at last started, we
arrived at Titusville, which is at the dis
tance of twenty-eight miles. and endeav,
ored to get a room at the Moore House,
but it, was impossible, and were obliged,
after an unsuccessful search for a better
place, to put up at a horrible place, a
sample of the Majority of hotels there. It
wag within a mile and a half of this place
that the_ first well was sunk. - We were
not lough] discovering here that we were
in the midst of the oil region. The hotels
are full of men, who talk only oil ; men
with boots above the knees, and India
rubber coats ; mud-spattered, travnl
stained men,' excited with the hope of
.gain, talking of thousands of dollars with
as much indifference as if they were cents,
and who are willing to give up and forego
everything for pelf.; one never hears of
war or politics amongst them. PiPa Me,
talk, week days and Sundays. A barrel
'factory here turns out 400 barrels per day,
at Ea 25 per barrel. The town has over
&WO inhabitants, and one ne*spaper.
Having determined to go to Oil City, we
found the best method to go was to.walk
—walk in the mud, which sticks and slips
1 - as no other mud ever did. So we started
jibe next morning for Shaffer's farm by
rail, it being seven miles down, and the
present terminus of the Oil Creek rail
road. Having reached there and fortified
ourselves with something to eat, and for
tified by letters of introduction to the
superintendents of several large wells, we
determined to start ; here was mud—mud
up to the knees—up to the neck—the
worst kind of mild ; one cannot coinpre
bend it till he sees it, is in the midst of
tt, and wishes himself out of it, but can
not get out. After passing the Gregg and
Foster farms- 7 -epon she latter of which a
new forty-barrel well !adjust conimrenced
working—we passed on till we reached
the Espy ferm, upon which at the very
base of a hill, with ground to work on
about five feetwide,are six to seven wells',
amongst which is the lamotts Buckeye
well, which once flowed - 1,300 barrels per
day, but which now throws nothing but
gas, except about six barrels, intermit
tent. Upon this propel, ty wo saw sr.
rangements made to try the new boring
machine, which it is said will bore wen

solid. We were here shOwn the action of
.rte air pump. which teems air down into
the well and also forces up the oil ; (the
pump usually used•is a lifting pump :) the
compression. of the air passing through it
makes the pipe so hot lat it cannot be
touched. The method O boring at pres
ent is with an instrument. like a chisel,
attached to an iron rod weighing eight
hundred pounds, fastened to a cable ;
after boring %boat fonr feet the chisel is
drawn up by machinery, and an appa
ratus attached calle-I a sand pump, four
feet long; made out of tinned iron, with .
a valve at the bottom which allows the
pump to fill with; the sand, is Jet down
graltislly, and when it is raised, which is
by machinery, closes. amd draws up the
sand and dirt. '
We progressed to the Empire well. This
well, which burns its own ,gas—a very int.

the Upper Molthenny farm ; produces 150

Inmost Funk well. At last we reached Pe
troleum Center, a flourishing little town
supported by oil, and sifter a comfortable
nap in our clothes, elaree in a room, started
for the Ebert farm, on the other side of
the creek; upon this farm are some of the
richest flowing wells—the Jersey we 11,350
barrels, and the Coquette, struck a few
weeks ago by the Maple Shade Company.
which produced at first 1,500,n0w 000 bate
rels per day. Continuing our journey
through the midst of snow which bad
fallen during the night. we passed the
Story farm, Blood and, Rynd farms, and
the Phillip's well, prpitucing barrels
tier day, and cesne 'o the lii:Clintock or
Johnnie Steele farm; upon which a well
wee beinit measured which was, 400 feet
deep with a first r31.(3 show. There is s
well upon this farm rod:icing 250 barrels
a day. Mr. Steele is about 20 years old.-
and has an income of $2,000 to $3,000 per
day. At last we arrived at Rouseviile, the
mouth of Cherrrrun. - We here saw an
other well burning its own gas, the appa
ratus is all very primitive. At this place
a great deal of business is done. ; Cherry
Run binds at present run high: After
passing over this miserable road we at last
arrived at Oil City, at the conflueuce of
Oil Creek and the Allegheny river.' Oil
City is about seven miles from Franklin.
the county town of Venango. It is built
at the base of a bluff 200 feet high, and
has one street upon weech the town is
stretched. it has over Isix thousand in
heleitents. and two newelkepers. The heel
ees on one ride of the street are built into
the bluff, and on the other they are eup
ported by piles. The residents are busy,
otiy people, all disposed tb Make money
and attend to their own business. The
creek' is full of ' oil boats, oil scow'', oil
scowlers, oil berrels, and oil men. The
town has a temporary appearance, but
will wcr doubt he , torn down and other
houses put in their place. The best hotel,
and it is a vet* good one, is the Jones
Rouse, the landlord is obliging, and un
derstands his business, and be is a perfect

A Vet Words to Skaters.
The word "skate" Was imported from Hol
land, where the schaat, as the Dutch call it.,
is
, almost a necessity in winter. In many
ple‘ces there they have canals instead of roads,
and when those are frozen, market men add
women, with ‘.heir loads of. vegetables, mer
chants 41111'000g their business, boys end
girls goidg tolsohool i and, almost all foot pas
sengers glide wilily along on skates. It is
probsble.that the Dutch first learned ,the art
from their, more northern neighbors of Nor
way and Sweden, where the first skates were
made of tNe shlu hones of the deer or sheep,
bound upon the fitot t with strips of skin. This
must have been duddreds of years ago,. as
mention is made of skates in one of the oldest
Scandinavian poems. In Northern Europe
there is - less snow than in this country,)and,
skating is-a universally popular amusement.
In this country it has recently become fash

and ponds for this purpose have been pre

the army acknowledged, it was owing to the

were ordered oat of the river by Admiral
Davis, who had succeeded Admiral Foote in
the command of the Mississippi Squadron.—
Captain Shirk then went to Meinphis, and to
his great disappointment, found he was one
hour toe Late to r participate in the fight. Ope
rations then ceased for a while, when tho
Lexington with other boats was ordered up
the White river, where they performed some
service in taking St.. Charles and destroying
rebel boats. When the water became too low
for them to stay longer, they came out again
into the Mississippi; and not much more was
done until Admiral Porter took command,
when they made en attack upon Vicksbuig.
