THE ARMY or PoroxAC.-The vGn OF H.
Army of the Potomac Lieat: Gen. Grant, reached
Manchester, last evening, from City Point, en- route
for Washington. The four years work of sup
pressing the Great Rebellion being virtually accom-
plished, the grand old army is on its way back to
the point from whence il set out in 1861. The diff
ferent corps will rest in Manchester for several
days, girding up their loins, then set out IN light
marching order through Richmond upon an easy
home ward march. "Home again" is the sorg upon
ten thousand lips, and ten thousand hearts respond
"fiiled with joy to meet their friends once'more."
The heavy equipments and paraphernala of the
army will go round by water.

Oil Discoveries In Illinois.

From the Joliet Republican. 18th.
Some davs since it was satisfactorily as
cerrained that a large supply Of oil flowed
out upon tie surface Of water issuing from
spring On a farm belonging to Mr.. Frank
Goi.t. OF the to<n o. Pilinicid. The oil
spring is about one-h.f mile east of the plank
road and four miles from TIN. city. Many
persons have visited the place this week, and
there j. rcasor 70 believe that there is no
hdmhG- about it. Gentlemen from Pennsyl-
van,a say that there exist, 4 striking reseIn-
blance between the appearances Of this oil
spring and much of the b b.st oil region of that
state. Il; consequence OF this discovery =
company Is being formed, with u large
capital, in order to test the matter. Great
excitement prevails in Plainiield. The same
thing has spread among our monied citizens.
We are Informed also that large coin pany
is also being formed in order to bore for coal
on the DuPagc.
From the Rockford Register, bruary -.
We are informed that unmistakable indi-
cations of oil haze been found near Peca-
tonca in this county. and the oil fever has
commenced at that point in earnest. \ com
pany has been organized here, who nave
leased the farm of Mr.. Nagle, about three
miles ncrth of Pecatonica, forty acres, pay
ing him 81 900 down with an agreement TO
paw 81 900 additional when they struck lie
and also one-hird ofthe profits. Who knows
but our county may be rich in petroleum de-
pOSirs and but wha: we shall vet have an
excitement equal 10 that in the Pennsy ylvanIa
OIL region?
Great excitement is said to exist in some
parts OF Stephens IN county by the discovery
ot petroleum there.

his rmbitiou gave vent when he first leit for
the field: "Here's for Coloners epsulets
or soldiers grave He knew lot how
prophetic was the utterance. He won the
first and more, and the latter is now his last
ing inheritance of fame. After the regiment
returned to Kansas, in the fall of 1861, Capt.
Dan was placed on staff duty, we believe,
with one of the Generals McCook, then in
Kentucky Soon after be was Frustrated
with sickness On recovery he raised and
commanded the SD Ohio. For long time
he was acting Brgadier, participating through
all Rosecrans' famous campaigns in Tenn
essee. He was wounded, and after promo
ton as Brigadler, returned to Ohio sick,
where he died.
As man may he fought his light
Proved his truth by his endeavor;
Let him sleep in solemn night,
Sleep forever and forever"
The remaining member Of the frm-Gen-
eral Thomas Ewing, Jr., is too well known
to need particularizing by US. The war
found him our Chief Justice. In the summer
of 1862 he resigned, raised the | lth regiment,
became its Colonel. and participated in all
the engagements Of the Army of the Frontier
during the following fall ard winter. He
was atterward promoted to Brigadiershp,
and has since been in command Of the West
ern Missouri and Kansas District, wherein
he was not popular. He has for over year
been in command of the District of South.
cas-, Missouri, with St. Louis a. headq iarters,
where he is popular. His undoubted admin
istrative ability comes into play there. The
defense OF, and retreat from. Pilot Knob. dur
ing the late campaign, reflect great credi.
upon his skill and courage as a soldier.
Taking it all in all, the legal military firm.

notes, is oTia Of the most remarkable proofs

TAKE WAkXING GlRLs.-Ihe statistics
culed from the British Registrar Generals re
port, give some curious details rs to the ages
at which men are most likely to marry and
women to be married. After oman pas
scs twenty. her prospect Of getting n hus-
band begins to fade. Taking the years
1850, 1860, 1851, we find that IS girls were
married at 20 years of age, but no males
At 10, seventeen Youths entered tn state Of
matrimony AMI 637 girls. For both sexes.
90 seems the most favored age for marriage.
In 1861, the number of each sex then mar
ried was 1876 men. and 5o,6iO women.
At 25 this proportion was reversed, the NUN
bers being 26,li3, men To 20,513 women !;
and at 80 the difference was still more mark
ed, for while l0,62l men married at that age
only 1910 women found husbands. The
males having once obtained the prepondcr-
ancc maintain i, to the last. At 10, we find
! l6 men marrying, and only 2l women; 80
men and 3 women at .5 and ; men at so to

An old Jewish writer divides men into four
CLASSES, as regards their pruciplc, and moral
worth.
The tir-t class is composed Of men who
say: al. that IS niue belongs To me, and Hll
that Is YOURS must belong 10 lnc also. In
th, category are = be placed all dishonest
men, all unscrupulpus tratcsmcn, all those
who 30 no, fear tC employ unfair means to
reach others proper;,
The second class includes those Who say
all that !, mine belongs To me, aid all tia, Is
YOURS belongs To YOU. These people harm
no body, bu, they help nobody, they are
strictly j, =. neither more or less. They are
selfish: VIXEN thcy have paid their debts they
think they owe noihrg more to anybody.
The third class say: AL that is mine Is y:
your service. provided everything YOU have is
at mine.
Tha: is the principle Of mutual assistance,
of kindly feeling between neighbours, insur-
ance associations. The man who carry ont
that principle think themselves highly social,
kind hearted, generous, bat III fact il /, all
a matter Of fgures-a mortgage Oh future
contingencies.
The fourth class are the men who say: all
that is mine is yours too. There are ncu
who ale truly benevolent, charitable disinter-
csted, who look upon their property rs loan
made TO them bv God in order that they may
relieve their fellow men less fortunate in If.
then themselves.
Now i. a comparative es innate ofmen was
drawn up, according TO the above classified
tion, what would be the result? The first
class would contain mIiiI"uS OF fnGn, the
second form n large company, the third IS
less numerous, and the fourth ah the fourth

ALL.GAToR's NESTS They resemble hay
cock $, four feet high, and five in diameter at
their bases, being constructed with grass and
herbage. First, they deposit one layer Of
eggs on door of mortar, and having covered
this n second stratum of Md and hcrbage
eight inches thick, lay another set of eggs
upon that, and so on to the top, there being
commonly from one to two hundred eggs in
a nest. With their tails they then beat down
round the nest the dense grass and reeds FIVE
feet high, TO prevent the approach of unseen
enemies. The female watches her eggs, until
they are all hatched by the heat of the sun, i,
end then she takes her brood under her own
care, defending them, and providing for their
subsistence. Dr. Lutzenherg of New Orleans,
once packed up one Ct these nests with the
eggs, i'll box. for the museum of St. Peters
burg. but was recommended before he closed
it to see that there was no danger of the eggs
being hatched on the voyage On opening
one, young alligator walked out aud was
soon followed by the rest, about hundred of
which he fed in his house, where they went
mp and down stairs, whining and barking
like young puppies.
