QUARTERMAsrER GENERALS OFFICE.
Columbus, Oct. q, 1861. .
AS multitude of letters are received
daily, making enquiries in regard to
Clothing and Blankets contributed for the
benefit Of the Ohio troops in The service
Of the United States, it is deemed proper
TO state, through the public press, that
all contributions will be received at the
State Warehouse, in Columbus. and as
soon as any considerable number is re
ceived, will be sent in charge of trus,y
messenger 10 the troops most in need.
The contributions may be sent to my ad-
dress, at the expense Of the State, aud the
freight, Yeharged by transportation com.
panes. will be paid here. ss F..-."
For these contributions no charge will
be made to the soldiers who receive
them. -.'rH
So far as possible, and the necessities
may indicate. the wishes OF the donors
will be carried out in the distribution,
but the State cannot furnish transportation
to the numerou, agents Of benevolent as.
'sociations all over the State who are de-
sirous of entrusting the goods and dis
tribulion to some one selected by them.
selves. The great expense, as well rs
the liability OF duplicating contributions
and giving them to soldiers who are
already amply supplied, will at once sug.
gest itself to the public. and trust all will
at once see the necessity OF forwarding
their contributions here. ... ..'..
l beg to add that. from all the in
formation we can obtain. it is hoped and
believed :ha! the statements Of destitution
and suffering among our soldiers is. or
has been exaggerated. Every exer,ion
is being made by the officers Of the Gov.
ernmert to forward supplies to. the troops
and but very few instances Of actua
suffering are now known. 'a.
l have already received liberal contribu.
lions. and shall make an issue Of them thi,
week, and in due time will make public
the donations which have been received
through this Department. aH7, ..f.#

The Burning Well.

Some Rochester gentlemen furnish the

While 10 the oil region, our townsmen
had an opportunity TO witness the terrible,
yet magnificent effects produced by the
ignition OF the crude gases which escape
from newly opened shaft. The men
who were boring suddenly struck oil at a
depth OF about Jour hundred feet. and be.
fore they could withdraw the drill, or ex.
tngnish the fires under the boiler of a

violence took place. A perfect sheet oI

for some distance around, and then the
ascending column OF oil took 6 re. The
spectacle was inconceiyably grand aud
imposing, particularly after nighliall. The
force OF the jet was such as 70 send the
