The Copperheads Of Peoria county, with
view of showing their intense sympathy for
the Union soldiers, hare passed resolution
in their County Convention in tayor o6&tanch
donation Of lands By the Government to each
soldier as mar constitute for him permanent
home" The Peoria Copperheads have been
80 intent upon giving aid and comfort to the
Confederates during the past four years that
they haya overlooked the legislation Of the
United Suites Congress, which provides for
"spch donation Of lands TO eneh soldier as
may constitute for him permanent home" :"
The Homestead Act, q Republican measure,
passed in 1856, gives 100 acrcs Of land not only
to cach soldier, but to each citizen, who de-
ssirea permanent home in the public domain.
~ There Is no Republican Union party
among the whites at the South They arc
divided into rebels and Copperheads; or as
Gov. Pe11y Of South Carolina says In his mes
sage, they arc all Of one party. Their vote
will be cast solid In Congress for every Cop.
pcrhcad measure, and solid at the next cleo
tion for copperhead President. The Re-
publican Union party Of the south would
number Coo 600 votes II ifcnfranchiscd But 1t
Is wholly disfranchised. This Is not all:
Every one Of them Is counted full man In
the representation, md consequently every
Corpcrhead vote ut the South represents, not
only the Copperhead who cnsts It, but the
Republican, who, If permitted to cast It,
would yote directly in the opposite manner. ,

The Erie Dispatch tells funny story Of oil.
A citizen who lived near refinery found his
cellar knee-deep with undoubted petroleum.
No MAN In an oil country has any right to be
astonsshed by such Indications. He fell at
work, collected thiFty-six barrels Of the fluid
and sold 1t ut six dollars to bis neighbors OF
the refinery, promising to bring them all he
had. They poured 1t into thets immense uu-
Lle1ground tank. The veuder went his way.
So did tho oil, and It came to pass they met
again In the cellar. After the process Of sale
had been twice repeated, the rehners smelt
something stronger than petroleum, and
mcnded treacherous ercvice in their tank.
Thea, by singular coincidence, tho flowing
well In The cellar dried up.

Great sensation prevails here among parties
In the oil interest, and with some reason, con-
sidcring recent developments In this region.
The best paying well IN the United States has
just turned up on branch Of Walker creek,
about eighteen miles from this city. am
not advised as to Its precise locality, but be-
lieye II Is to be known Is Howell's Well on
: White Oak Creek, a branch of Walker Creek.
The assertion given above Is from one Of It's
principal owners, who bases 1t on the
, TACT that the oil Is Of the very
best qualify. They have been pumping
as high IS thirty barrels In four hours, and e1-
. pectcd when they got the new engine to work
10 pump zoo barrels per flay. For this oil
: they are offered 10 per barrcl at the well
Their new engine Ia at work and the we'll Ia
ali they clnimcd for 1t.
Blackford well, on the MCCLURE Farm, has
had several promising shows in the way OF
oil, aud expect to pump In few days.
The Albany Company, on the 1cit hand Of
Walker Greek, are going to pump both their
wells in a few dnys.
Over on Petroleum run, which runs next to
Walker Greek, there have been several new
strikes Of good paying wells. Ou- 1sau1ct
Peak, on the Mount FnTm, they have struck Q
forty barre1 we'll been pumping four weeks.
Enough has been done to show that oil is
NIL through this county of Wood, and all that
is required IL time, money and proper appll-
aCces TO get oil. The Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad runs through this county and across
Walker Creek, which Is only about clshtecn
uliles east from Palker's Bridge.

TrovbIe in MARYLAND.

NEW YORK, Nov. 4.-The Baltimore
American of yesterday says: We were
last evening informed by gentleman
from Princess Anne, Sumerset county,
that very bad state of affairs exists in
that town and vicinity in relation to the
registration law and the coming election
on Tuesday next, and trouble is appre-
hended in consequence. Our informant
states that the commissioners of the
county are men who have been noted for
their disloyalty, and two of the three
being unqualified and unregistered vo-
ters. They have appointed men for
judges at the coming election who are all
voters except in Que district
alone with view of violating tile reg
istry law and allowing all persons to
vote, disqualified as well as qualified.
Our informant also says that it is impos-
sible to display the national flag in that
locality. halliards have been repeatedly
cut. 1t is thought by Union men gen.
orally that there will he rotiug at the
polls. rs those opposed to the registry
law have threatened tn seize the ballot
box if they are not allowed to vote.

| EDITORS OF THE REGISTER:
MINERAL WELLS, Oct. 81, 1865
Permit me to sayTthrough the REGIS
TERI few things to the members and
friends of our church, (the NJ. E. Church
South) in the bounds of the Western
Virginia annual conference, for their en-
couragement and information Our con-
ference has been organized by our veneer
able Bishop Kavanaugh, he having ap-
pointed Presiding Elders for all the Dis
tricts in it's bounds, and those Presiding
Elders are supplying the Circuirs and
Stations with preachers as fast as they
can find suitable men for the work. We
have charge of the Parkersburg and
Clarksburg districts, have travelled
through and visited the brethren and
friends of our church in the principal
circuits OF the Parkersburg district and
are happy to say that we met with kind
greetings aud a cordial reception by our
people everywhere and found our church
in much better condition than we anti
cipated Although many of our circuits
had (uuavOdably) been left without Pas
tors for three OF four years past. yet the
Great Shepherd had taken care of HIS sheep
and they are standing almost unit for
the cause Of God and the church of their
choice. The people flock to hear us and
many omens. of good have already atten
ded our ministry since our late appoint
ment to the district The gospel atone
is our theme Hence Onr mission is
peace on earth and good will to men"
Our only aspiration is the glory OF God
aud the salvation of sinners. The Cos
pel as a system of salvation addresses it.
self alike to all As such we mean to
carry it to the palace of the rich and the
cabin of the poor. To this great work
we have been signally called OF God and
cannot draw back without incurring His
sore displeasure Hence, whatever SEEM
inc difficulties there may be thrown in
out way. they must and will be sur
mounted. tor Jesus says "Lo, am with
Non always, even to the end OF the
world" Our houses of worship III some
places. (as well rs those of other church
es, have been much injured during the
late war. But the people of West Vir-
uinia have been abundantl blessed with
the good things of this world, hence their
liberality will abound, and our churches
will soon be repaired, we trust, and those
walls again resound with the sound Of
the gospel and the songs and shouts of
Israels hosts. Dear brethern, let us 90
to work in the spirit of our Divine Mas
ter, every man standing in his lot. Then
the wilderness and the solitary places
will be glad (again) and the desert will
rejoice and blossom as the rose. Our An
nEal Conference will meet at Greenups-
burg, Ky, the first "Wednesday in March
next, called together by Bishop Kava-
naugh particularly for the purpose of
elccting delegates to the General Confer
ence which meets in New Orleans the
first of April, 1866. We hope all the
members of the Western Virginia Con
ference will meet promptly at Greenups
burg at the time appointed.
Yours Respectfully and truly,
