Alihcuj'.ll this place is but a few weeks
old, yet it is termed a city, and to all in
tents and purpo.-e.'i is a city. Think of
a town having a Post OiTice established
but four weeks, sending off in one day
1008 letters. The l'c.t ifliec :;lepr; arc
crowded on the arrival of the mails as
but few of the. largo cities are. It was
our fortune to bo in l'itholc last week.
It is well enough to 1fr about Pitholo ;
to learn that the roads between Pitholo,
and Titusville, Sliafeiv Milkr Farm and,
I'lumcr, are filled with loaded teams from
morning till night ; but yet no conception
of what it really is can 1 c had except by
actual occular

Every -erson is talking about making
a fortune in a year or two when they
will soil out their leases an I retire. They
all expect the bubble tobuivt bouutime,
but think it will not within a couple ol
years, perhaps. They will continue in
business until within a few :u)tiths of
the collapse, and then sell out. There
are those, undoubtedly, who expect the
city and its business to le permanent, as
some largo hotels arc being built at a
great expense. .Many of the newly com.
pictcd stores have "For Sale" in the
windows.
We arc not certain, but .should judge
that there was one universal want in l it.
hole, that is women. There arc no la
dies to be seen on the fctrcets, in car
riages, or at windows. A few girls

thing beside the-.o horid n.ca can be

The ainouni of oil loini produced i
ituinense. Ne y wells arc being devel
oped every week, and the number in nn
embryo condition is very many. O.in of
toe Sisur well", which is near the great
1 '. S. well, is flowing now ai the r.ito of
ElO-'i barrels per day, thus ont. s'.rippiu r
'he E. S. well some hundreds of barrels
It has the effect to inspire in one a kind
of ewe, aim o-t fear, to witness the. throb,
bing and sealbing of eiiherof these Webs
The Tv. lu well is more steady in i" How
and the great stream co;n?s through the
tube incessantly, sometitnes moderate,
but momentarily with a desperate heave
it comes crowding or.f, and strikes heavily
against the f ide of the great vet, which
makes one's head Ji:;;'.y to look into from
the top of its covering. The gas comes
out in such quantities as to be scon eurb
ing for a Kiouent r.ftor a heavy throb
resembling the ci.-llf g cinoka from a
pipe or cigar, though it loo.-os itself much
sooner. And well may one bu fcr.rfttl
as he stands around these wonders ; for
the careless lighting of a match., cr a
flame of lire from any source, would cause
the iirneimeut to burn as a scroll in an
ios'.aLt, and every living and consumable
thing in tiie vicinity would be as though
it hnd never been.
The product of oil from the wells al
ready f truck, must be several thousand
barrels per day. This yield, at present,
is carried away by horse teams of Pluin
cr, Shaler, Miller FaTin, Titusville and
to the liver. Each team catries from
three to five barrels for a load. Some
teams consist of three horses, and such
are loaded with six bavrel.-;. Pome two
hor e tennis carry ibbs nun.bcr, but th.'y
make too heavy a load for the ic.ids of
that Cimnlry. If such roads were allow,
cd between Warren r.ud Tidioute, the
Commi.-'.loiiers would be arrested for
keeping them in a dangerous condition.
But down iherc we heard no complaints.
AVcut one thousand loads of oil is be
ing taken from the wells each day. The
caravans that pass over the roads tiro a
marvel to beh j'd. The price paid for
hauling to Shafer is per barrel,
distance t.f sis or seven miles. To Ti
tusville, a distance ol about eleven miles,
Z 'j.'-o per barrel. The oil is worth tit iho

c. well, which wtil ttilie the oil irotn
'hat place. From the oulct the road 1
wiil run to Oil City. The outlet is in j
the river. Some four or five miles from'
the wells. A tube or pipe lo take the
oil to the liver, is also talked of, and we
believe, in proee-ss of b
eine;
.lid. Til,:
en'ei'i rises
teams that
1 relieve the thousands ti
: l.ow trugeing at their
heavy burdens. It is pitiful so see some
of the peer animals, with galled and
bloody shoulders, tugging (.long the un
even road.
There are other points of interest in
that region, but wo are reminded that
this article is drea-ly too prolix. At one
place, not many miles from Pitlmle, are
to be .'.a n (we know neit how many) per"
h;ts a hundred or more wells within a
short di '.aitce ef each other, none of
which are yielding any oil. The well;
arc not much talked ef. Failures arc
covered up, while the sueee-scs are apt
lo bo magnified. But it L hardly possi
ble to magnify the interests, growth and
enterpiuc ol I'itholo City.
When it is remembered, however, that
the money which put up all these build
ings was not the product of the place'
but t iken there by forigu adventurers'
a pan of the charm is lost. Many of
the people will always wish to be rich,
but never will be. A few have madr
hundreds of thousands, perhaps millions
of dollars, and the rest are experiment.'
ing; but like the alchemist, who tries to
transmute the metals info gold, they will
fail. As for us, a plaeo where quiet and
