the opposite bank of the Usage River was
lined with Rebel horsemen, who were diSpers-
ed by few rounds of canister.
Gen. Fremont had begun preparations to
Law pontoon bridge across the Usage when
the messenger left, and it was supposed his
army would be over the river by "Wednesday
night. He was determined to push on with
the utmost vigor, and would probably soon
come up with the enemy and force him to fight
or retreat.

The Flowing Oil Wells.

We have visited most of the flowing wells
on oil creek, and have published statements Of
their yield which many Of our readers, we have
no doubt, though bordered on the Incredible.
Well, be this as 1t may, We have statement
TO make in this particular direction more mar
vellOus than any previously given, and those
who are creduIous in such matters may just
pass it over without peruSal. To all others,
he it known that the moSt astonishing vein
of oil yet out was tapped on Tuesday week, On
the NJ EIlany farm, about twenty rods below
the celebrated well OF Capt. Funk, at a depth
of 400 feet When we saw it, on Thursday
evening, it was pouring forth a continuous
stream of oil, wonderful to behold, which it
had done without interruption from the hOur

cannot be exactly aScertained, as the owners
were not prepared To secure it at first, an
even when we were there it could not be mas
tered To give the reader some idea how
ever, of its yield, we would say, that a watch
was held while it run into tank holding by
measure OS oblS., aud it filed the same IN

hundred barrels of OIL ! Aud when we left
on Friday morning there appeared to be but
little diminutIOn. What is also remarkable is
the fact, that as above stated, this well is 10
Gated no: more than twenty rods from the
Funk well, which has been flowing some four
mouths, and has yielded an almost incredible
quantity of the greasy fluid 1t would have
been supposed that the latter had drained ali the
the oil for a considerable distance around, but
there is one still more prolific within twenty
rods These oil wells are certainly among the
wonders of the world.
1t may well be supposed that at such a well
they have pretty lively time of it, in their ef,
forts to save the oil and while they can sue.
ceed but partially when they have daylight for
it, it is rendered still more difficult such nights
as we had last week-dark aS Egypt, and rain
