Or PRosPEcrs AT GoDERIcH.--A COM
pany, as we have before stated, has
been formed for the purpose of boring
for oil in the vicinity Of Goderich, G.
w. In order to ascertain at the out
set the prospects for a realization on
the investment and that an intelligent
idea might be obtained as to the prop
or point for the commencement of OPP
erations, the company secured the SER
vices of HueH p. SAvIens, Esq, @. f.,
and p. L. S., who having made care
full examination, has presented to the
Directors well written, clear and in
telligible report which after setting
forth the extent of rock known as cor
niferous formation, the group general
ly acknowledged to be the oil produc-
ing group, having an extent from 6 to
1000 miles, concludes as follows:
"That oil exists in the formation at
and near Goderich is placed beyond a
doubt, from the residum discovered in
the shape of a highly inAamable BIZ
luminous clay found in thin layers in
the crevises Of the rock, as also from
the highly bituminous nature of much
of tho formation as discovered in the
vicinity. l would sum up my opinion
upon the prospect of oil being obtain
ed in your locality, thus; That as
Goderich rests upon one of the most
prominent outcroppings of the cornif-
erous formation and as this formation
is universally acknowledged to be the
source of all the oil found in this Sec
ton of Canada, and as thus far the
experiment has been made by sinking
wells directly into the formation, l
see no reason to doubt but that oil
may be found in all probability in
abundantly paying quantity, particu-
larly as I stated before, if sufficient
depth is attained to overcome the eff
fects of the central depression"
He recommends sinking the test well
on the fats just below the present rail
way station.

ALMOST A FRE-R Reeves Single
Mill, just across the river from the
foot of Genesee Street, took fire on
Monday last, causing considerable
alarm, and for no trifing reason, as
but for the prompt and efficient efforts
of those near at hand it would, ineu-
tably, have been consumed. Luckily
the flames were subdued before serious
damage had been done.

President Lincoln i'm the Hospitals.

To the Editor Of the Independent:
On the Monday before his death,
when our late beloved President was on
his return from Richmond, he stopped
at City Point. Calling upon the head
surgeon at that place, Mr.. Lincoln told
him that he wished to visit all the hospi.
tails under bis charge. and shake hands
with every soldier. The surgeon asked
the President if he knew what task be
vss undertaking, and told him that there
then we're between five and six thousand
soldiers at that place, and il would be
quite tax upon his strength to visit all
,he Yards and shake hands with every
soldier Mr.. Lincoln answered with
smile, that he "guessed be was equal to
tho task; at any rate he would try, aud
90 as far as he could, ho should never
nrobably see them again, and he wanted
them to know toat he appreciated what
thew had done for their country flnd.
inc It useless to try to dissuado him, the
surgeon began his rounds with the Pres.

tending his hand to all, saying few
