ton, but OF fact.
The most abundan. surface indications are,
perhaps, found on Coopcr's Greek, Blue Creek,
Little Sandy Greek, and other tributaries OF
Elk River, and upon the Pocotalico River and
its tributaries; and as q large proportion Of
the territory for considerable distance
around Charleston has been secured by leases
and in fec, by companies in New York and
elsewhere, representing large capitals, for
immediate development, the coming spring
and summer will prove the wisdom Of the
selection Of this location for the purpose Of
mining for oil. Soon the country around will

and il oil should be struck in paying quaint.

of parties seeking oil territory will be extern

A Glimpse at the South.

sayS that \. b. Richardson, correspondent Of
the New York Tribune, who had been in the
rebel prisons over eighteen months, and who
escaped from Salisbury, n. c., recently, mr..
rived in that city on tho 18th. Juuius II.
Browne was expected to arrive the next day.
"Mr. Richardson speaks Of tho suGcrings OF
tho prisoners at Salisbury MS most distressing.
In few and plain words, tho rebels arc deib.
crntcly, s,udiously, and systematically Jret;.
ing and starving our men 10 deoth! There is no
doubt about it. Mr.. Richardson's information
is explicit, ample, and convincing on this
head. 1t is necessary that the authorities
should make q Wholesale exchange Ct prison
crs, or proceed 10 retuliae upon the rebels in
our power. This is forkcd proposition that
cannot be lodged. It is the opinion Of Mr..
Richardson, that the rebels cannot increase
largely the force Of white men in their army.
Western North Carolina is full OF faithful
Union people, and the negroes are everywhere
and all the time the friends and helpers Of our
soldiers. The Cnionis,s in North Carolina
arc, lattcrly, doing good work in the; way
Of bushwhacking The rebel home-guanls, de-
voting themselves especially to the shooting
Of officers. Tho Richmond paper that has
much the largest circulation, is the Examiner,
the sheet that so bitterly assails JEFF. Davis"
