Professor A. D. Fleury writes an interest
ing letter TO the Pittsburg Commercial
stating the following as his deductions from
a recent trip through the Pennsylvania oil
regions:
l. Between the horizontal layers of shsls
we perceive here and there smaller strata
of ssnd-rock, and wherever the slightest
elevation or depression is visible the sand
stone strata exhibit fractures and cavities,
while the Glsy-slste is simply bent without
showing any fracture or crevice.
2. Careful examination of the nearly
horizontal strata along the river shows that
at certain points, for instance a. Petroleum
Centre, as well as PithOle, and all along
the line from PIthole to Petroleum Centre,
q slight rise and consecutive fall of the
horizontal strata of clay slate can be ascer-
tanned; the same is seen st Tarr Farm and
Oil City-it is also visible at Franklin.
3. The parallel direction of these slight
elevations and depressions is running i n a
northeast southeAsterly direction, while the

Tine Case of r. a. howe, ESQ.

A few days since we copied from a New
York paper the affidavit made by Nathan
iel 4. Sheldon, of New York, charging
Fred. A. Howe, Esq, 8 well-known BUSH
ness man of Mesdville, with fraudulent
representations in regard to certain oil
lands. Since that time we perceive by our
MesdvilIe exchanges that much feeling
exists in that city at the arrest of Mr..
Howe, and that he has the confidence and
sympathy of his fellow-citizsns. 1t is
stated that MI. Howe was induced by
forged kilograms to come to Rochester, and
was there arrested and hurried with indie
cent haste to New York, where, by his
W desire, the charges will receive
thorough investigation. The following,
from the Rochester Express, gives some
additional facts in regard to the matter.
We have heretofore noticed the arrest of
this gentleman, st the Clinton Hotel in
this city, on the Doth inst, on the complaint
of Nathaniel Sheldon of Brooklyn, for al.
legged fraud in an oil transaction. Mr..
Howe was taken to New York, where he
gave bail TO appear at the examination of
the charges against him, on the LIST of Au-
gust The court also required Sheldon TO
give bail for his appearance as q witness.
Mr.. Howe has returned from New York,
and claims that the sole object of the arrest
is to extort money from him. Nj. Howe
s~ustsins an unimpeschsble reputation for
honesty and integrity, both here, where he
formerly resided, and st Mesdville, where
he now resides and is doing q large bust
ness.
This charges against Mi. Howe, as hesnd
his friends claim, and as wes,hsve no doubt,
sre utterly false and without foundation.
On getting Mr.. Howe to New York,
Sheldon was more anxious for q compro.
mise than for s legal investigation. Mr..
Howe refused to compromise the matter.
AS to the merits of the charge, Mr.. Howe
states that he has no fear that the investi-
cation will not only entirely exonerate him
from any faint of fraud, but will also con-
vict his ssssilsnt Of q base attempt to levy
black mail upon him. Nj. Howe is 8 man
Of means. He was brought here from
Meadville by forged kilograms, was arrest
ed at his rooms g. the Clinton Hotel, fore
ed into a carriage, and not permitted to re-
port at the office of the hotel, or to see 3
friend or counsel, or even to get his hat or
turn out the gas in his room. Gentlemen
in New York, who know Mr.. Howe, came
and offered bail for him 10 the
amount of 100000, Unnecessary.

The Population OF New York.

The census of the State Of New York
has just been taken in accordance with q
constitutional provision providing that it
shall be taken every ten years, beginning
with the year 1865, snd that the Senate
and General Assembly districts of the
State shall be apportioned upon the basis
Of this census. The census is not yet COM
pleted, but the Few Yoik WOrLf estimates
that it will show, excluding aliens and col
ored persons not taxed, q total of l,023, $50
as the population of New York City. This
would give the city t~wenty-nine Assembly
men and seven Senators. The total popu-
~lAtion, including aliens, is over eleven
hundred thousand, against sI3,6 69 in 1860,
515, 1874 in 1850, 6O,489 in 1900, 1881 in
1856, and 1000 in 1856. When the popu-
lstiOn of Brooklyn, Jersey City, Hoboken
and Williamsburg are added to the city, as
they properly should be, its population can
not be less than one million eight hundred
thousand souls.

THURSDAY, AUGUST 8, 1866.


Our dispatches from North Caroline
show 8 state of things in some portions of
the State worse even than that in Rich
mond. One candidate for popular favor,
William A. Graham, in defining his posi-
ton, is careful TO inform The Government
that under no possible circumstances could
he consent 10 q restoration Of the State to
the Union if negro suffrage Is to be one of
the conditions. This is rather cool, but the
declaration of another candidate for Con-
grsss, n j. P. H. Russ, that he would re-
enslsve every bondman if he had THE
power, is decidedly arctic. This last gen.
tlemAn would make a coed companion for
Emerson Etheridge, and would doubtless
do much to cheer that gentlemsn's lonely
lot.
Messrs. Graham and Russ will have q
nice time in getting admitted to seats in
Congress, to which both are known 70 as
pire admitting thst the North Csrolinians
are foolish enough 70 elect them.
The real truth is that many of the peo-
pie down South have forgotten that there
has been a gigantic rebellion, which has
been completely crushed, and that they are
not just now in the precise stste to Z C
terms and make conditions. Since tn
heavy arm of the Government smote re.
bellIon such final crushing blows in Vir.
ginis and North Carolina, 1t has dealt
with the deluded people with gloved hands
But if its generosity and paternal tender
ness is to meet with such requitsls IS these

ed gauntlet. Is the race of stolid, obsti-
nate m~alcontents never TO become extinct

Canada Politics.

The death of Sir. &. P. Tache, Prime
Minister Of CanAds, to which we alluded
in yesterdays LEADER as an expected
event, took place on Sunday. The de
ceased gentleman has twice been Premier
of the province, and has held Office in diff
ferent governments for the last twenty five
years. The death of Sir E. P. Tsche st
this i~uncture is of more than local interest,
as it necessitates the formation of q new
government for the province, and, besides,
may possibly disturb the existing party
coalition on whose influence the British
Government have mainly relied to carry
through the scheme of a confederation of
the provinces. Nearly all the Governors

Military ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

DEAR LEADER: The Third Division
of the Fourth Corps is encsmped ONE
miles up the country, having landed sever
al days since. The First Division is
either here or in transit from New Or
leans. The Second comes on as soon as
possible. As soon as the trains arrive the
Divisions march for their respective des-
tinatiOns viz The First goes to San An
tonic, the Second to q point midway be-
tween San Antonio and Austin, and the
Third to AusIin. Corps headquarters will
be at San Antonio.
The only means of transportation is
water and at this season there is none.
Hence the troops march over the sand
plains, taking the ceel of the day for it
if such a mixture of sridity and torridity
as this can SAVIOR augbt of cool. For the
present. supplies must be propelled
by mules over the entire route,
though the railroad running to Vic
toris, some forty miles away, will be
repaired as soon as possible, and continued
thence on to San Antonio. The rebels
have long since destroyed almost every YES
tige of it. Iudisnols is a small wooden
town, which contained five hundred souls
before the war, though ten days since there
were but six male Inhabitants in the town.
It is situated twelve miles from the gulf on
MstsgOrda Bay. A dangerous bar at the
mouth prevents large vessels from entering.
Small steamers run vi along side, the
troops and baggage are transferred, brought
up to within half a mile of the town, and
again reshipped on small lighters and
brought to the shore. Long wooden piers
formerly extended out TO deep water, but
tho rObels being in need of fire wood de-
stroyed them. They are being repaired,
however.
This town will be the depot for this de-
psrtment as long as the Fourth Corps re-.
mains in Texas, and that will probably be
until the regular army is recruited to the
maximum number.
The interior is much moro healthy than
the coast, as no water can be obtained
here save from cisterns. The country,

imported from Florida, general supplies

of which the town can boast is a commodi-
Gus hotel, kept by Casimir, with IN IN

standing upon the beach. The aceommo-
dstiOns here are limited. The furniture of
a room consists of a mattress, a chair with
a raw-hide seat, and q mosquito bar. The
latter is 50 much of q necessity that issues
have been made to all the troops of the
corps.
Col. Charles Wood, commanding the
Fifty-frst Ohio, is stopping temporarily at
