Making yearly income of a1,935 900
This is thought by those who are acquaint-
ed with this locality, to be moderate esti-
mate, and yet it is easy to see that even this
amount of success would make the property
of the Company in value, almost surpass be-
lief.
The durability of this immediate oil section
is illustrated by the fact that wells above and
below this property have been pumping over
four years, with a steady yield, and without
any diminution.
A Few PLAIN WORDS TO SUBscR1BEEs.
Subscribers to the stock of this Company
cannot expect to receive Immediately large
monthly dividends; if they were able to do
so they could not purchase it for ten times
the amount at which it is offered. But the
basis on which the Company rests, will, it is
believed, make the investment entirely safe,
and, prospectively, of enormous Ualue.
The President, Col. E. w. Davis, formerly
of Franklin, Venango County, is well known
as one of the most successful and energetic
business men who have engaged in the Pc
troleum interest, and the respectabilty nd
integrity of the other officers and Directors
of the Company, furnish sufficient guaran-
ty that their conduct Of the business
of the Company will be entitled to the
confidence and approval of all who may
invest in the enterprise.
The Directors have determined to sell on
ly limited amount of the Capital Stock at
the subscription price of 50 per share, par
value s., the same being full paid up stock,
not liable to any further assessment, in which
respects the original subscribers, and those
who may now subscribe, stand on precisely
the same footing.
Subscriptions will be received at the Office
of the Company, 224 South Fourth St, Phil
adelphia, or at the Office of the undersigned

This Company owns in fee simple seven
ty-seven and three-tenths acres on the East
side OF the Allegheny River, in Rockland
township, Venango County, Pennsylvania.
II is situated five miles below the town OF
franklin, opposite the mouth of the West
Sandy Creek, and has frontage of 11O rods
on the river. 1t is but short distance be-
low the celebrated Hoover well which is
yielding 200 BARRELS of oil daily. Other
yielding wells surround it in every direction,
and within the past few weeks two new
wells have been struck in the immediate
neighborhood, one of which is producing dai-
ly 30 barrels of heavy lubricating oil worth
at the well $50 per barrel.
A fine vien of Bituminous coal, easily ac-
cessible, is on part of the land, and in view
of the enormously high price of coal in that
region, is an important Consideration, and
will enable the company not only to supply
its own wants in that respect, but to derive
an income from its sale to others.
The adjoining properties are in the hands
OF good and prosperous companies, all in sue
ccssful operation, and it is believed that no
oil company has started out with better
prospects for paying large and regular month
ly dividends.
This Company intend developing their land
without the least delay, and for this purpose
have arranged for the necessary engines,
tools, tubing, &C., all of which will be put
upon the ground and in operation as soon as
the season will permit.
In addition to their own wells, the Com
pany also propose to lease to responsible par
ties portions of their land divided into lots of
10 square rods each, at rent of one half
the oil, the Company to be at no erpense
l0hateuer. They will have at least fifty
such lots to lease, all of which can be leased
at once if deemed expedient, with covenants
binding lessees to sink wells with all possi-
BILE despatch to the depth of FIVE hundred or
more feet. Estimating, only one well to
each lot, fifty wells, at the very moderate
average of ten barrels each, would make a
laily product of 500 barrels. Of this the
share would be $50 barrels.
Value of daily yield to the Company at
$50 per Barrel, $500.
Allowing $50 working days to the year, the
Company's annual net receipts from leases
llone would be 81, ,S75, 900.
The Company also intend sinking on their
,wn account, at least five wells. Should
hey be successful with only one, it would
produce, estimating as above, yearly in
come OF 8 10000
From which deduct for expenses

TIE GREAT CAVALRY MOVEMENT FROM THE
WEST
From the St. Louis Republican. ]


Or rc a5ers have had very imperfect and limited
intelligence regarding a great forward movement
.whch6as Just been commenced in Gen. Thomas
department, and which must do as much toward
closing up the rebellion in the Southwest as the
operations Of Grant, Sherman and Sheridan toward
giving il a cuietrs in the East. We allude to the
great cavalry force which has been concentrating
and Quitting at Eastport, town on the Tennessee
river, and situated in Northern Mississippi. For
several months past the utmost efforts of the Quar-
termaster's Departmen. throughout the West have
been directed 10 supplying horses, forage and gen
eral cavalry equipments so as oinsure IN advance
as soon as :he roads become practicable for opera
tiOns in the present spring.
The grand corps left Gravely Springs, N the
vicinity Of EastpoIt on the 2lst instant. Major
General Wilson. an officer who had acquired re-
nown or the Potomac is in chief command. He
has 10 900 men, divided into three fall divisions,
and commanded respectively by Brigadier Generals
Hammond, Croxton and Long. The Fourth ana
Fifth Divisions tile latter under Brigadier3 General
Hatch, remain in reserve at or about the EaStport
depot.
The moving ree is superbly equipped in al re-
spects, well mounted, well armed, with emclent
ana abunc ant artillery and immense wagon ana
pontoon trains. The men of which il is composed
are mostly veterans, have experienced war upon
many field Of strife, and were in the saddle Tor
TWO months last Fall and Winter, during HOOD
advance upon and retreat from Nashville. us
destination is known only to those in authority
but il may be assumed to be Selma, Montgomery
and Mobile. Wilson can easily brush Forrest S

which It was stated that the Rebel General Forrest
had sent a challenge TO Gcasral Wilson, proposing
fair open feld-fght, and expressing his conviction
of success in such an engagement. 1t appears that
General Wilson has grdtiied Forrest in his desire
to meet him. and the result is entirely contrary to
the expectations of the Rebel General, II he had
any sansuinary convictions. rs he asserted IN his
braggaioc;a challenge. We informed that Gen.
Wilson met Forrest and L OK Taylor on the 2sth
ult and the fight took place on that day az point
between Selma and Montgomery, Ala. II was
desperate engagement, and called into requisition
all the military skill and br very OF both commands.
The forces under these two Rebel Generals were
totally defeated, and a larc. number OF prisoners
were captured BY General V lson. He also destroy
