Tho Cost Of an OIL wen.

A correspondent of the Philadelphia
Press gives the following estimate, which
we submit for the consideration of oil men.
We have always been taught to believe
the cost much less, having been told that
the cost of q well of 1000 feet would fall
short of the total here indicated. Perhaps
practical oil men can give a nearer ap-
prozimstion toward correct results, which
would be great favor at this time, as the
question is ore of much public interest.
The following is the estimate:
The cost of drilling an oil well 500 feet
is not less than $1,000 The price of the
labor aud material viii, perhaps, increase
this. Wells ara generally drilled by par
ties who make contract TO do the Job, in
cTessing the price according to-tbe greater
depth desired. These contractors merely
do the mechanical work of drilling. tie
machinery being always furnished by the
parties owning land. I COPY an estimate.

The special correspondent of the New
York Herald, in London, states that within
a couple of years the Prince Imperisl of
France is to make royal visit TO the
United States and take tour in the coun-
try. He is to be attended by splendid
fleet and two or three Ministers of State
and viii movesbout with brillIancy which
will completely, it is said, eclipse our recol-

z The New York Tribune says that, as far
as received, the vote on the amendment to
the Constitution of New York State, pro-
viding for the election OF Commissioners
of the Court of Appeals, stands as follows:
For amendment, 2l,62s; against amend
ment, 26,9ll; majority against, 5,I83. The
amendment is probably lost.

From facts lately Developed, the athorlties
