OIL NEWS.

A big oil strike is reported tohave taken
place in a new well on the Patrick Farm
three miles west of Clarion.
At last accounts the pumps were still
WORKING at the United States well, and
much oil was being brought up with the
water.
Well Nc. 81, Stevenson Farm, Petrole-
UNI Center, is yielding at the rate OF $40
barrels per day, and exceedsth celebrated
Ocean well.
1t is stated that the oil excitement runs
high in Hancock county, West Virginia.
Several strikes have been made recently,
and new wells are going down almost
daily.
On Friday, the Virginia Petroleum
Company sold their valuable oil property,
situated in Richie county, West Virginia,
on Oil Spring run, Laurel run, and-Alum
Cave run, to a Buffalo and Michigan par
ty, for the sum of 100000 1O
P. R. Robert, a heavy oil Spectator last
month purchased ei~ght-sixteenths IN the
Pool well, for the sum of SI20,0 GOO, from
Messrs. Pool Brothers. Not satisfied with
the amount of this investment, Mr.. Roberts
has within the last fortnight bought from
the same gentlemen in six wells on the
Holmden farm, ffty-fte and a half six
teenths for the sum of St73,GO0.
Oil matters at Smiths Ferry continue
to improve. A new company entitled the
Rocky Gulch Oil Company" was organ
lied in Beaver on the 10th inst. p
The property on which this company
proposes to operate is located in the rocky
gulch, a few yards above the famous Viii
liams well that is producing double the
amount of oil of any other well in the Is
land run region. The company intend to
commence the boring Of a well imme-

Geo.. l.. stenrns and Negro Suffrage.


Geo. L. StearDs and Negro Suffrage.
The most ardent, and certainly the most
practical, friend of negro suffrage, in the
land, is George L. Stearns, of Boston,
whose conference with the President has
recently been widely circulated by the
press. This gentleman is a successful
merchant of Boston, who devotes his leis-
ure, his money, his fine talents and his
remarkable executive and organizing
powers to the furtheranee of thesingle po-
litical idea embodied in the words equal
| suffrage His plan is a simple one, but,
as the result has proved a most thorough
one. He got astride of his philanthropic
hobby Just a year ago, before any but the
most far-sighted statesmen had thought or
spoken of this branch of the suf-
frage question. Reprinting what
little had been we'll said on
the then unpopular theme by such
as W. d. Kelley, Sumner, Phillips, ct "a
omne genus, he Forwarded the documents
to all men of intelligence, whose names
he could procure, in the various States,
with a circular requesting each to read
and circulate the same, and asking each
to furnish him the names of other persons
to whom such reading matter could pro-
ftably be sent. The names rolled in upon.
Major Stearns, in response to these circu-
lars, to an extent that soon compelled him
to organize a bureau of clerks to carry on
the business. He then made an arrange
ment by which a Thursdays issue of the
Boston Daily Advertiser, filled with arti-
Giles and contributions on tho subject of
equal suffrage, was mailed, prepaid, to
every individual on his list, in addition to
such speeches as, by this time we're making
through the country on this topic. The list
swelled daily, until it contained 10000
names, and was, practically, a network
covering most of the towns and villages of
the several States. Some of the recipients
of these documents RENTED funds toward
further distribution, although the proper
ton of these liberal souls was not large
enough to prevent Major StearS being
--siaA1s-SeYeral thousand dollars. Then
Tich radicals N bosLOn, New York and
plan of circulating their theories, fcahteh'to
the rescue, and subscribed Literally to fur
Their it, until now, Major Stearns has estab-
lished a weekly paper, called "a Right
WGH,'' of which 80, 600 copies are regular
ly sent by mail into every State and Ter
ritory in the Union, without any cost to
the receiver, either in subscription or in
postage. Under such circumstances, it
may well be doubted if equal suffrage has
a more ardent devotee, or a more active
promoter, in the country, than this same
George l.. Stearns, of Boston.

THE RIVER PATH.
~ JoHS c. wHIrIIER.


No bird song hoated down the hill,
The tangled bank below was still
No rustic from the birchen stem,
No rlpple from the waters hem.
The dust of twilight round us grew,
Ne felt the falling Of the dew ;
For. from ms. ere the dav was done,
The wooded bills shut out the sun.
But on the rivers farther side
We saw the hill tops gIorihed-
A tender glow exceeding fair,
A dream Of day without its glare.
With us the damp, the chill, the gloom;
With them the sunsets rosy bloom;

Judicial Recognition OF Universal
Emancipation.


The Grand Jury of Jefferson county,
Kentucky, having found true bills against
Major General Palmer in at least three
cases for assisting slaves to leave Kentucky,
his case came up before Judge johnson, of
the Circuit Court, on Wednesday of last
week. The following is the material por-
ton of Judge Johnson's opinion:
San Indictment was returned on this
day, by the Grand Jury of jefferson coun-
ty, against Palmer, which charges him
with aiding and assisting Ellen, u slave of
S. X. Womack, to make "ar escape from
her owner, in violation the statutes of
Kentucky, which declares such aid
assisting a felony and punishable by con-
finement in the p~enitentiary. The defend
ant, by mis- counsel, appeared in court, and
moved the court to quash the indictment
on several grounds, which were urged in
argument. One point raised by the coun-
sci is considered decisive in the case, and
will only be noticed:
"The act of the Kentucky Legislature
under which the indictment is framed pre-
supposes the existence of slavery in Ken
lucky, and the act was intended to protect
the right of the master in his property in
the slave. When slavery ceased to exist
all acts of the Legislatures of slave-hold-
ing States, making it felony to aid them
to escape from tho service of the owner,
became a dead letter, and ceased to have
any obligations or effect.
1.-THE Court judicially takes notice of
the facts that the requisite number of
States had adopted the amendment pro-
posed to the Federal Constitution before
the return of the Indictment in this case,
and at that time slavery did not exist in
Kentucky, and consequently all penal
criminal acts of the kentucky Legislature
are merely nlaIu1t prohibition, predicated
on the rights of the master to the services
of the slave, and must fall with slavery,
and consequently we're not in force at the
time the indictment in this case was found.
at is a principal of the criminal law,
that after the repeal or expiration of a
criminal or penal statute merely NAHUM
Drohtbittsn-no judgment can be rendered
for a violation Of that statute even while
in force, because to authorize a Judgment
against the violation of such a law, it
must be in force at the date Of the judg-
ment.

The LihrarX oI Tnn,erlrnc.

lie NOrd, of Brussels, alluding to the
occupation of Samarcand by a European
power, says that Tamerlarc left a large
collection of the books and manuscripts of
all the nations he subjugated-Armeni-
ans, G~oorgians, Syrians, &c.-in that CITY,
forbidding their removal under a penalty
of severe punishment. This prohibition
has been regarded, and il all probability
tho manuscripts are still in Samareand.
We quote from LIE Nord:
Some twenty years ago, an Armenian,
NJ. Khatcadour, q learned Orientalist, sue
ceeded with great difficulty in obtaining
admission, for a single honr only, to the
vault of the tower at Sauarcand, contain
ing tina books collected by Tamerlane, and
ventured in, Notwithstanding tho fearful
perils which, he was told, were to be en-
countered in that mysterious place, said to
be haunted by demons, who, as protectors
of the evil books, were in ~unceasing con-
fict with the angels, the guardians of the
good. In this vault, dimly lighted by two
airholes only NJ. Khatcadour saw thous-

He picked up one volume, the WOODEN
binding of which came off in dust when
handled. 1t was a work written in the
Armenian dialect with Greek characters,
and entitled, History of the Ancient
Heroes of ali Nations, by the Pontifls of
the Temple of Diana and Mars" An
other volume was a history in Armenian
without a title. Next he saw a Georgian
manuscript and an Armenian Bible, then
a volume of Arabic poetry several works
by unknown Greek writers; the works of
Origen; a manuscript entitled, "The Ma
tional Rising of Christian Armenia in the
fifth century against the law of Zoroaster,
under the command Of Prince Yanlan, the
Maraigonian, by Elisha Yertabed, a CO.
temporary Eut his hour had expired,
and he was obliged to leave. NJ. Khat-
eadour, however, succeeded in bringing
away the volume of which we have just
given the title, and a translation of it was
published in Paris, IN 1874, by the Able
Gregory Kaharasy gsrabed, of the Ar
menian Academy of Venice. The notes
of this translation pages 5fs ct seq con-
tain the account of NJ. Khatcadour's eX-
=pedition, of which We have here given a
brief abstract.

few DAYS ago. We refer to Madame
Huate de Iturbide, widow of the former
Emperor of Mexico, whose deeease took
place at her residence in Broad street,
This estimable lady, who had resided in
Philadelphia since the execution of her
husband by the Mexican Government, in
1924, belonged to a distinguished Spanish
family, long resident in Mexico. Her
misfortunes, as well as her good qualities,
had secured her the regard of the society
in which she moved, A pension from
the Mexican Government enabled her to
educate her family literally, and she per
formed the duties ofa mother and a mem
Der of society in a faithful and exemplary
manner.

c-neIcr an rnntnres-

Horace Greedy publishes a letter in the
NafiOnqt I~ntelIigsneer stating that he is
at Washington for the purpose of trying
to prevent a rupture of the Republican
party. We were not aware that the
party exhibited any symptoms of rup-
ture, and if it did Mr.. Greeley is not
the physician we would employ. His
support of a boiling ticket at the recent
election in New York, upon which occa-
sion he h~ob-nobbed with Ben Wood of the
Neios, aided in perpetuating the Demo
cratic reign in that city. His intimate re-
lations with the rebel emissaries in Cana
da during the war, and his advocacy Of
peace at almost any price, did not tend to
harmonic the party with which be
claimed to act. There is, however, no
danger of a rupture of the party.
