The Editor Of the Galveston
News. writing To hin paper, has the
following in relation 10 Petroleum
on our coast:
\ gentleman from the West gives
me the information that Prot. Shep-
herd from Yale College has been
making scientific examination Of
Padre Island, and has discovered
that il contains valuable oil, which
is believed TO be in large quantities.
Upon the strength Of this discovery
Mr.. Singer, who owns several
leagues OF land there, has sold half
of his interest for Sl0.00O. aud has
leased the other half for term Of
years. The purchasers are gentle.
men well acquainted with working
the petroleum regions Of the North,
and their intention is to commence
operations on Padre Island without
delay. For years past some oil
springs have been known on that
island, and the oil has been used
for leather and some few other pur.
poses. without however, any idea Of
its great value. 1t is believed there
must be large abundance Of this
oil along our Western coast, rs in
number Of places in the Gulf near
the coast, the oil is seen to come up
from springs below, and float upon
the surface of the water. The
black gummy substance, called by
the Mcxicans "chickety," and which
is seen in Jumps and cakes of vari-
Gus sizes all along the western
shores. is believed to be nothing but
this oil solidifed by long exposure
to the air and sun. This "chickety"
is used by the boatmen in the west
in the place of tar, for smearing the
bottom of the boats to make them
watcr.tight. They melt it by boil.
ing and mixing with tallow or lard.
Its smell is 20 precisely like that of
Kerosene oil that no difference can
be discovered.
