BEDS PROJECT.

THE SEARCH OF PETRoLEUM-THE RIVER
BEDS PROJECT.
In the Harrisburg correspondence OF
the Philadelphia Inquirer occurs the fol
owing:
"A party of spectators have originated
the idea of boring oil wells i'll the bottom
of the Allegheny river. With character
istic lack Of modesty they not only ask
the State to give up her right 10 that
navigable stream, but ask her to do Sc
without receiving Que cent OF compensa'
ton. A more infamous project to benefit
few citizens at the expense OF the
many has never been made public"
In another issue occurs tho following
upon the same subject:
Desperate exertions are being made
to secure oil territory at the bottom OF
rivers. in the oil regions. The columns OF
the Inquire. have already chronicled a
project TO give the entire bed of the Al
feghenv. in Warren and Venango coun-
ties, TO a company Of spectators. Still
another scheme has appeared, being no
less than to allow patents 10 be taken
out for land nj the bottom Of any river
in the state. This it is proposed to ac-
complish indirectly, by repeating the act
of Isi9, which prohibits any such patents
from being granted. In order TO prevent
rush to Harrisburg, it may be stated
distinctly that no such patents are now
granted, aud that there is very little
prospect of the act of lS49 being re-
pealed, although presented by an indie
! fatipable member Of the House from
Dauphin county, a locality which IL Ia

But the effort 10 donate the bed OF

stupendOus to pass dy without more
extended notice than IL has yet received.

GPress Dispatch.

NEW YORK, Jan. l9-The Tribune s
Washington special says the President
has been closeted all day, denying him
self TO all comers 1t is whispered that
two Alabama peace envOys had audience,
and that the President was giving his
mind to the endeavOrs from both sides
of the line of war to bring about settle
nent.
The same special also says the Govern
ment expects news Of more and most i'm
portant successes hourly.
The Richmond Examiner OF the 10th
says: The rumors concerning the nature
of the peace negotiations old Blair car
lies back with him, are very numerous,
and we are confidently assured that the
mission has brought the peace question
to point that provides for the appoint
ment of commissioners from either side,
with authority to laya peace foundation.
That is all.
The Whig of the 10th says it is under
stood that Blair had private and conf
Dental interview with the President
He came ia no official capacity or inter
course with any member of the govern
ment The belief in well informed cir
cles is that this interview may lead to u
conference between authorized agents or
commissioners of the two governments.
1t is known that President Davis will per
nit no obstacle of form to stand i'll the
way of sending or receiving commission
ers. Blair was handsomely entertained
during his sojourn in Richmond. We
are assured that the report is true that
President Davis has sent an autograph
letter to Mr.. Blair, expressing his will
lingness to send or receive commissioners
authorized to negotiate peace. 1t is un-
derstood that Blair told the President
that he came in no official character, but
simply with the knowledge and consent
of Mr. Lincoln. He expressed the opin-
ion that Mr.. Lincoln would certainly APP
point commissioners to meet commission
ers appointed by our President.

"A New Paper i'm Richmond.
PROSPECTUS.

FNHB undersigned propose to publish q
Il Daily Paper, under the title of saThe
Richmond Herald" on or about the 10Th.
of January ult.
1t will be enticly independent in politics,
but will nevertheless accord to the Admin
istration just support in all measures
which, in the opinion of its conductors,
may be e'deemed promotive of tho good Of
the cause in which we are engaged. A
proper criticism of such acts as will be
deemed adverse to this object, will be, of
course, copsistant with the independent
character under which the paper is to be
inauguratcd.
In the matter of General News it will bo
! found to keep pace with the leading Jour
nails OF the day, while it will have added to
il, in the matter of financial intelligence O
feature such as, we venture to say, no pa-
per in the Confederacy can boast of. Edi-
torials from the pen of one Of the ablest
financial writers in this or any other coun
try will be presented in each number
For reasons not now proper to be men,
4ioned, we forbear to give the names Of
those who shall compose the regular edito-
rial staff but We flatter ourselves that
when they shall appear, they will be found .
to constitute such an array of talent as can
tot be excelled on this continent
The well known character of the indivi-
dual whose name appears below, as ste
nographc reporter, furnishes, We presume,
o guarantee that, in all that relates to i'm
portant political speeches and debates.
whether in legislative assemblies or out Of
them, the "Herald" will present advanta-
ges certainly not to be excelled by any pa
per in the Confederacy.
The farming interests will be faithfully
yindioated, and care taken to disseminate
sthe earliest intelligence which proper re-
gard for the welfare of that great element
of national wealth and power shall demand.
], In the matter of correct commercial in
telligenco, equal zeal shall be manifested,
our object being to assign to each of these
departments an editor of known experience
and ability.
Arrangements are on foot by which to
secure the earliest foreign news, and the
paper will contain such editorial talent as
will fully clucdate the bearing of foreign
diplomacy upon Southern interests.
B In short, .The Richmond Herald" will
be found to combine every feature of inter
est which the requirements of tho present
crisis demand
The enterprise is respectfully commend
cd to- the e(favor and patronage of the citi-
gems Of the Southern Confcderacy.
