Mrs. Murrray's Paintings.

A Boston correspondent of the Springfield
Reprblican thus describes some of the works
Of Mrs. Murray, formerly of this city, but now
resident of Boston: '' Nni". aaa, -.--
In my last letter spoke of two sitting char
acteristics of Mrs. Elizabeth Murray as an ar
tist in water colors, her coloring and power
ofexpression. 1t Is impossible to give any ad-
eouate idea, of the richness and warmth of
the former. but the latter is more easily de-
scribed. tits not only the face Of her subjecs
that are expressive, but the grouping. Mrs.
Mnrray has much dramatic power; every one
of her pictures tells story, and each figure Is
suggestive One other most significant draw
ines, which Is however, merely study, is q
group around card table. Four men are
seated at a table, two are cheating by means
of priest standing behind one Of the PLAYERS,
overlooking his cards and telegraphing to his
partner. Another player is bending down to
light his cigarette, by another between the lips
Of girl sitting at his feet, who raises her dark,
languishing eyes to his most bewitchly;
another woman behind the group has just dis
covered the cheat and is calling the attention
of one of the defrauded players to the priest.
The expression of her face is very fine and
her mingled scorn and indignation admirably
rendered. Another sketch, quite little idyl
In its way, represents one OF those roadside
scenes so common in Spain.
An itinerant vender of milk, an ugly old
woman with a protruding under lip, ard
whose face is expressive OF both shrewdress
and degradation, is counting her money in her
hand, while man standing by, quaffs glass
of water. Near them is family OF peasants
forming very pretty group. The mother,
who is sitting down, holds glass Of milk 70

Wells of Water yielding Oil.

There seems no end to natures marvellous
phenomena Oil springs and oil wells have
ceased to be novelty, though their discoye y
is comparatively of recent date. But here is
a new development calculated to excite new
interest and to put investigation upon new
scent. The Pit Hole Record of Feb. 9th, con-
tains the following: ,ssoJ.e is .-tN
GAS those who were engaged in putting out
the fire yesterday were throwing water on, 1t
was discovered that by so doing they were on
ly adding fresh fuel to the flames, and on clos
er examination quantity of our liquid green
backs was seen floating upon the water. A
rush was made to the nearest pump from
which water was taken, and there we found
that negro had pumped the well until all the
water had been exhausted, and then oil and
water flowed in liberal quantities. =. E. Ia,
The pump was then handled very lively, the
oil continued to come, and the fire lost all in
terest except to losers. Many disbelieved the
account, and would hardly credit their eye
sight, some thinking that the oil was put
there for "a SELL But it was found that two
other water wells and some springs had also
commenced spouting oil, and incredulity gave
way to belief .la,t. 4it s,..t ts ~
The news then spread through the town
like wild6re, and every one left his or her work
and went to the spot. We are all accustomed
to visit the flats to see oil come from deep,
drilled wells; but it was something decidedly
novel for the oil to return the compliment and
bring its liquid treasures to our back doors
from water wells only some sixteen feet deep,
to say nothing OF the springs which were fow
B ing fast o1... ...,.e-. ...
The wells so far are three In number, and
there are some three or four flowing springs
The oil is accompanied by some gas, although
not SO much as the wells on the flats sLow.,
The water of all these wells and springs had
been considered Of very good quality until
about last Sunday, when disagreeabie taste
was noticed, which has been increasing ever
since. 0iii,3 ilp.t a...a.Es te.s.I.
Not the least strange thing is that these
new oil wells are all at least one hundred and
fifty feet above the fats.
Perhaps the first discoverer of oil In guam
tity in Pit Hole city, was MIR. John Harris of
the Bath House, who discovered several inches
of oil on the tank of the spring at six o'clock
yesterday morning. 7.-ah H9u al,
The first well struck belongs to Mrs. Rick
etts, a widow woman, who has heretofore
earned her living by washing. 1t is at the
depth of sixteen feet, and was only pumped
at intervals, but the oil came freely in answer
to pumping, and would fill barrel in ten min
utes. 1t was not worked more on account Of
difficulty in getting barrels to put the oil in.
Mrs. Ricketts, was offered at FIRST one thousand
dollars for it, and then two thousand dollars,
until at last gentleman secured the refusal at
hive thousand dollars until this morning"

1t is something novel in o,,r ia
tnough II ought not to be so that a tlenntat;oI 3
representing the most despised ANA aI,.so-i
portion of our people should stand face 10 Taoa
with the Chief Magistrate of the RennbIic
demanding, with all courtesy, yet without ser,
WITTY, that to their race, as to others, the
rights of manhood shall be accorded. This
conference will figure in history as not the
least memorable of the many striking events
which have Illustrated the recent annals of our

1t is right that they should so stand, and
should be respectfully heard and needed. For
these men truly and faithfully represent four
millions of our fellow countrYmen-f mil
lions hitherto wronged and degraded Gas the
President freely admits y yet who in heart and
soul are human and rational as we are-chil-
dren of the same God, redeemed by the same
Savior, and heirs of the same Immortality
Why should they not present their case TO the
President? and why should he not intently
hear and heed?
I Yet there is very much to be urged In favor
OF the Presidents position. There Is apreju-
dice against the blacks on the part Of many
whites. True, these whether at the South or n
North)ar neither the wisest nor the best of
their race-on the contrary, the baser and
viler the white, the intenser and bitterer his
