The same authority says of the Pithole
rao;on !. Leases onthe Rocker farm, adjoining
the Holmden farm below, were sold to-day,
bringing as high as ST., 400 for lease of half an
acre with half the oil. They were sold at
auction where more than one party desired the
same lease. The big wells are growing Dig

In Titusvile property, however, there IS
still much life, and the most exorbitant prices
are demanded for lots and buildings. For in
stance, one small piece of ground on by
street was offered by speculative genins at
the moderate sum of nine thousand dollars ];
while two-storv frame house, which only
cost one thousand dollars to erect. was gener-
ously offered at an annual rent of twenty four
hundred dollars. Notwithstanding these high
rates. however, stores and dwellings are easily
rented. Work for all kinds of mechanics Is
plenty. and wages range from three to tour
dollars per day. Boarding, seven and eight
dollars per week. Lumber from thirty five
to sixty dollars per thousand feet. Three
hundred new residences are in course OF erec-
| ton.
The Allentown pa Democrat says that
in consequence of the want of demand for
iron since the cessation of the war, every iron
establishment in the Lehigh Valley has blown
out one, two or more stacks, and pig IRON IS
piled up on the hanks of the canal and along
the railroad by the acre. At Catasauqua four
or FIVE stacks have been stopped; at the Alien
town Iron Works two out of four at Hook
endauqua two out Of four; one out of two at
the Lehigh Valley Iron Works: the Roberts
Company. at Allentown, is blowing out its
only stock and the Rolling Mills at Allen
town. Catasauqua. and other points are pre-
pairing to suspend for time Lewis Mills
has already stopped. These stoppages will
throw hundreds of laborers out of employ
ment. The coal operators in the Lehigh re-
gion, some time since. gave notice to the MI
ners that they must submit to reduction Of
/ one-third of their wages. The miners did moi
feel disposed to do it, and stopped work. As
the market is we'll stocked and there is NC
great demand, the public will not be likely to
suffer much in consequence of the stoppages
There was not over one-fourth the usual guam
tity of coal brought down the Lehigh Valley
road last week. In the Schuyikill region tbs
miners have agreed to reduction in some o
the colleries.

years to come, in the attention that is being

He would not consent to any measure which
might limit or suspend the exercise of the
right every sovereign had to employ the means
IN his power to put an end to a rebellion IN
his own dominions, and that the mediation of
the two Imperial Courts must be limited tn q

not to a peace nth his reuolted subjects" He
further declared ''that in all points to he

1t would appear that these sentiments har-
monized with the views of the Imperial Courts
of Russia and Germany, as no remonstrauceA
was made, nor any mediation insisted upon in
regard to the colonies. How. then. AFTER
these repeated and significant affirmations Of
the doctrine of non-intervention, could Eng
land have presumed to offer, or the ITnited
States have consented to accept, of any inter
ference in our domestic difficulty. The his.
tory and teachings of the past would have
had to be ignored and annulied. If ENGLAND
might have interviewed, it was because she
had a right to do so and if she possessed
sAch right then, if that right was accompanied
with tie poicer, she could have asserted Il nv
force. Such would have been the logical re-
Dult and was the consequence. But. as we
have shown, she claimed no such right. Upon
this principle she declined to act with the

From the San Francisco Alta, July 18th.
COMMERCIAL REVIEW.

There is at this moment q singular depres-
sion in general business, without doubt, and
this fact causes some degree Of dependency
in the minds Of a few persons, without any
sound reason. Indeed, when we take into
consideration the causes which should pro-
duce depression, we are surprised that it is
no greater. In the first place, the population
of the State has rapidly increased by immi-
grafton of persons Of great energy, inteli-
Sence and activity, but with little capital.
They come here to extract fortunes from the
natural advantages Of this State, unfortu-
natcly at 4 moment when, through an UMPIRE
cedented drought, those advantages were
nearly suspended, and when 4 very large
amount Of accumulated agricultural wealth
was swept away BY the same cause. The
Federal census Of 1860 gave the population at
7 1904. Since then there have arrived l54,-
39l, and there have departed 1857, leaving
a z ain of 74,754, TO which must be added
36,OOO-the natural increase Of the residents
and we have 4 result Of 400, 74S souls. Up
to 1868, as these persons arrived there was q
continuous increase in the production Of
wealth. The breadth Of land under pillow an
nually increased, the number Of animals was
yearly greater, and food and wool and gold
came forward in swelling abundance. Capt.
tai accumulated, and the rate Of interest de-
clined, inviting trade, rewarding labor, and
meeting the Just expectations Of the new
corners. From 1850 to 1860, the cash value
Of farms rose from S3,S74,04l to 1851, 994
that is to say, 81, 900 per head for every
soul in the State in 1860, from that item
alone. The value Of live stock rose in the
same 1913, 200, 900, or $500 per head the pro-
duction Of wheat increased per annum 10
bushels per head the production Of wool in.
creased 10 pounds per head; butter and
cheese increased II pounds per head.
All manufactures and wealth increased
in a similar proportion, until the State show
ed an aggregate wealth greater than any
other in the Union. Thus Massachusetts
was the richest Eastern State. 1t had a
population Of l,23l,0 66, and a valuation OF
SSl5,237, 433, or S662 per head. California
| returned from thirteen counties only, S2O7,-
S74,6l3, which is ssh per head. The valua-
ton Of all the counties would carry the ratio
per capita much higher than Massachusetts.
Such was the rapid progress Of the State up
to 1863, when the drought blighted the farms,
killed the cattle, destroyed the crops, SIAM
peded the miners, diminished the gold pro-
duction, and took value from millions OF Sc
c%urities. Thousands of newcomers without
capital, at such a moment, only added to the
difficulties caused BY dear food and the I'M
position of unwonted taxes for war purposes.
Some approximation to the losses may be ar
rived at. In the first place, half the cattle,
sheep and swine are known to have persisted.
The wool clip declined 100000 pounds, the
wheat crop 100000 sacks, other crops
1000, 900 sacks, as follows:

The loss of crops here expressed is the d.
rect loss of the farmers, and must be re-
placed by natural growth. The rise in food
is the loss Of the whole people, who were
compelled to contribute largely for the i'm;
porta,ion Of wheat the farmers lost by bad
crops. The diminished product Of gold Is
that of California-the northern and south
ern mines, less Nevada receipts-as COM
pared with 1868. The increased Customs
duties was a direct levy upon the people as
well as the Internal Revenue. Tins does not
include the State taxes. The cost Of food and
the Federal taxes were SlS,lSS,o91 more, at
a time when losses were frightful; The MN,
ing losses and assessments we rave placed
at SjO,OOO, 900.
