the first enterprises, which Mr.. Smiths
Joint-Stock Compapy's Act, passed last
Session, was intended to encourage, I'M
der which it was registered on the 10th
instant, in the Secretary's Office. It's
promoters are for the most part, gentle
men connected with the trade between
the Island and the United States. The
wonderful success of the Oil production
in Pennsylvania has led to the formation
of a. Barbados Company, where the
surface Oil has long been known, and
celebrated since the time Of Bishop
Berkeley, under the name of Barbados
Tar. The indications are such as to
warrant the belief of a large deposit Of
Oil under the surface in the ravines of
st. Joseph and st. Andrew. The Com
pany of which Mr.. Humbert is manager,
have commenced in St. Joseph, and have
set their boring apparatus 10 work
already under experienced Engineers.
We are indebted to these foreign gentle
men for the development of what may
prove a new source of wealth TO the
Island, and the creation of o new industry,
supplying employment to labor and a
new article of export. They introduce
capital as we'll as skill and enterprise
into the Island. They deserve the thanks
Of the community, and may justly claim
to be seconded and supported by those
who live on the spot, and are more nearly
interested in its prosperity. We hope
they will meet with that support and
encouragement in the taking up Of the
shares of the Company, reserved for
persons in this Island, without delay, and
q combined effort be made to search for
the Oil veins-which elsewhere appear
to lie irregularly distributed over. a
considerable tract of country. The
Company we understand have succeeded
in obtaining leases on favorable terms, in
the two Parishes, Of about 5000 acres,
considered the most likely to yield Oil,
and it only remains to s'strike" upon a
good vein, TO turn out a profitable
Investment. AS yet they have made but
small progress in boring, having driven
the shaft only some so feet below the
surface, but sufficient 10 show increasing
evidence to the smell and the touch of
the presence Of Oil. We have only to
add, that it is a local Company, with
limited liability, the management vested
in the Directors on the spot, and their
meetings for business held at the COmpany's
Office in Broad Street.
DANCING IN PA~RIs.-France is pre-emi-
nently a dancing country, and yet few of
the dances now popular here are OF French
origin. The Contre-D Gnse is a native of
England, and was first introduced into
France by the dancer Trenilz; the Waltz
came from beyond the Rhine during the
latter part of the eighteenth century ; the
Gakop was imported from Hungary in
1929, and was in a few years popularised
by Gavarni and Balnac. As to the Polka
il was brought into France by the Princess
de Ligne nee Wanda, Princess Lubomir-
ska. during the reign of louis Philippe.
There was a complete Grore for this dance
both here and 10 England, and scarcely
amonth had elapsed since its introduction
before Levassor and Grassot danced o
comic polka at the Palais Royal. The

THE ROAD TO WEALTH BY
ADVERTISING.

The science of Advertising for adver-
Using is a science, although not always
scientifically carried out-tor the reason
that it is not generally understood. Like
all Others it has its disciples, and its OPP
ponents. The world still contains a few
specimens of the pre-Adamic species,
who plod along in musty %obscurity; but
with the real, go-ahead, w~ide-awake bust
ness world. advertising occupies it's true
position, commands proper attention, andis
the road to fortune, if properly carried out.
The largest advertiser of the present
day is, we believe, Professor Holloway
who is mainly indebted for his great
wealth (for he is a millionaire) to the
scientific way he has advertised his Medi-
cines. Holloway expends annually over
$4,000 in advertising alone, and is in
weekly receipt of 5000 newspapers and
publications, in which his advertisements
are inserted. He has established the
largest and most complete gallery in the
world, in which newspapers from all parts
of the globe, and in almost every Ian
guage, are seen by statesmen, journalists,
and literary men. This estab-
lishment, togetAef-with The untold wealth
of its owner, is the result of liberal
and systematic advertising ; for although
Holloway's Medicines may be wonderful
remedies, and have brought health and
JOY to millions, yet. without advertising
they must have remained comparatively
unknown.-Britih Columbian, New West
minister, Sept. IS, 1866.

ANTIGUA.

The invention OF Mr.. Fryer for the
manufacture of Concrete, is we find
attracting attention in all directions. A
few weeks ago a communication was
received by his ExceIIency the Lieute-
nanl-Governor, from the Governor of
Guadeloupe, desiring to know whether a
commission from the Colonies of Mar
Unique to be appointed to examine into
the working of he Concrptor would be
afforded facilities for SO Going, and at
what time it would he best for the
Commissioners TO visit Antigua. OF
course q cordial welcome was readily
promised 10 the gentlemen, and this morn
ing the *Acherroasn a French steamer of
war arrived ia our harbour, having on
board several gentlemen interested in
agriculture and science, duly accredited
by the governments of Martinique and
Guadalupe. His Excellency the Lieut.
Governor is just now at st. Kits but
Mr.. Eldridge the Colonial Secretary at
once communicated with Mr.. Flyers
Attorney, Mr.. Burns who requested to be
informed as to the time most convenient
for him TO exhibit the Concretor at work
to the Commissioners. Mr.. Burns hav-
aug Will CHdtdCCOi AStiO pOWptltuuO
intimated his readiness at the moment,
the COMMISSIONERS at once proceeded to
Beluedere Estate, and we learn were
very much gratifed by their inspection
of the new process in operation there.
The gentlemen will pro'ong their stay
for a few days to enquire more thorough
ly into the merits Of the new invention,
and we learn that early in the next week,
a more formal reception will be given
them at Beluedere. The "Acherron'' left
for st. Martins after landing her passen-
gers this morning, and will return on
Tuesday next. bringing possibly from that
island ar addition to the number of the
commission.-Antigse Observer, April 81.
