PETROLEUM. notwithstanding the
large number of new companies constant
ly starting into existence for the devel-
opment Of petroleum properties, the bust
ness in the article shows steady de-
cline. Though stocks are everywhere
very low, there is no difficulty insupply-
ing the home and foreign demand, both
of which have, of late, greatly decreased:
According to the export tables published
in the Philadelphia Petroleum Journal, OF
this week, the exports up to latest dates
from various ports since January, 1865,
have been only 2,334,lS6 gallons against
SAT- ,975 gallons i'll the corresponding pc
Rod of 1864, and s,s22,625 gallons in
1863. Prices have, of course, sympathiz-
ed with the downward movement in
gold, and at the wells are as low as $4 80
"A IS per barrel. There seems, however,
to be no abatement in the speculation In
oil lands, and the number OF companies
organized in Philadelphia alone has
reached 499, representing an aggregate
capital of hundreds of millions OF dollars.
