have reason to believe that the &C.
crct treaty which is known to exist be-
tween France and the. Confederacy was
not intended to run so soon the risk of
exposure, and it is probably that the
French Legation at Washington is really
kept in ignorance of it, so that the dis
avowal may be made with all the -ap-
pcarancc of conviction and truth. Louis
Napoleon fears no other element of
French public opinion except the an
tipathy to slavery, which is stronger and
more universal here than in England,
and whish is, moreover, represented by
Prince Napoleon.

Lands Located in Ohio, West Virginia and
Pennsylvania,

THE PROPERTIES OF THIS COMPA.
i ny consist of 423 acres Of the most desirable
OIL Lands in these States, selected with care and
judgment by practical men, after prospecting and
examining the most productive regions and locali-
ties. A large part of it is situated on Dunkard
creek, Green county, Pennsylvania, where, in pro-
rortivn 10 d.valopr"Nnts. the quantity and quality
Of the Oil found, is superior to VII cr-vh, -
manding higher price in the Pittsburg market.
The lands in West Virginia are located in Mon
ongeia and Wetzell counties, and are considered
among the best in the State.
In Ohio, the Company property is located in Knox
county, where the indications are most favorable,
Oil of superior character as lubricatOr being
found at depth of $50 feet, adjacent lands, and
within few feet Of the Corpanv's property.
The Company are already sinking one well, and
have arranged to two more, as soon as the
necessary machinery can be put on the greund.-
THREE WELLS have recently been struck only a
short distance from the property of this Company.
EITHER ONE of which would in one year, nearly re-
paytte entire CAPITAL Of the Company.
The officers of this Company, in placing its stock
before the public, are confident that the induce
meuts offered are not surpassed by any Company
in the country. The Capital Stock is small for the
amount of valuable Oil territory the Company pos
sess, and tho assurance of speedy and large re-
turn to the stockholder is almost certain.
Full and detailed information given on applca-
tion to the Sec ctary and Treasurer.
81 limited amount of the Stock is now offered
for sale. Apply to

A Remarkable Observation by the
President. Es,

About four years ago Abraham Lincoln
raised with his own hand the National flag
over Independence Hall, Philadelphia. On
that occasion he said:
1 have oftenihquiredo of myselfwhat great
principle or idea twas that kept this Con-
federacy so long together. 1t was something
in the Declaration of independence, giving
liberty, not only to the people of this counl
try, but hope to the world for all future
time. 1t was that which gave promise that
in due time the weights should be lifted
from the shoulders of all men, and that al
should have an equal chance. q =
Now, my friends, can the country be saved
upon that basis /? If it can, / will consider
myself one of the happiest men In the world
if can help to save It. But If this country
cannot be saved without giving up that
principle--Ij was about to say oIwouldt
rather be assassinated upon this spot than
to surrender it. M ~,
