rHEcoAL OIL REGIONS.
Tho Present Condition of the Petroleum
Interest. - 5,

Colonel Forney writes to the Philadelphia
Press from the oil regions of Pennsylvania q
long account of the present condition of the
petroleum field. He says:
There are now forty.seven oil districts. In
the last month of May these forty-seVen dis
tricts produced 40s, ,797 barrels, equal to Is, l87
barrels per day, which, at 81 80 or IS per oar-
rel, will give you some Idea OF the revenue de-
rived from this new branch Of Industry. Many
changes have taken place under the new
Teot,ae. but no revolution has been 30 effective
az the substitution OF Wrought-iron pipes, some
two and half inches In diameter, for the
original plan Of conveying oil IN barrels from
the wells to the tanks Oh the railroad cars.
These pipes are frequently carried over 9
distance ol three or four miles. They are
manufactured In Philadelphia, and are COM
posed OF sections, which screw Into eacn
lar ground, up and down hills, and when
fastened into the tanks at both endsthe steam
engine is applied, and the oil is forced down
at a very rapid rate until the railroad tank Is
full. There are said to be over 1000 miles OF
this pipe now laid In the district.
The question may be asked why, II sucn Tor
tunes were realized when oil commandedonly
81 25 barrel, 1t cannot be obtained at the
same price now The answer is that the ar
ticle Itself has appreciated owing to the In
sreasing demand for it; and as the trade Is In
the hands Of certain united organizations,
they slacken operations the moment the de-
maild moderates, or store their oil IN vast
tanks on their estates, some Of which hold
10, 600 and even as high as 20 600 barrels. You
win perceive therefore, that while there are
many failures, while many poor fellow boree
yaInIy for the precious liquid, the average proft
Is enormous, and that one or two good produc'
ing wells Is q sure fortune.

TGEGROWING COTTON CROP.
THE LATEST OFFICIAL BULLETIN
FROM THE EAGRICUITURAL BUREAU.
Certainty OF a Short Crop-Two and q
half Million Bales the Minimum and
Three and q half Million Bales tho
Maximum Estimate-A Good Prospect
for High Prices.
WASHINGTON. july u

WASHINGTON, July IL.
The information received at the Agricultu.
raj Bureau since the last report concerning
the prospect of the cotton crop tends to con.
firm that report in all respects. In several
important cotton-growlng sections there is nc
Improvement, In others there Is slight fall.
Ing off In the condition of the stand, and In
others there is slight Improvement. In
many counties, In the best cotton-growing
States, the crop is good deal in the grass,
and will give but an Indifferent yield. Alto
gether, the prospect is no better than at the
last report. In a day ortwo the official report
will be given to the public.
Later-The OnlciaI Report.
WASHINGTON, July IL.
The July returns do not materially change
the cotton crop prospect reported in June.
Severe rain storms have continued to OBJ
struct cultivation, and check the growth in
the States on the Gulf coast. The States of
Louisiana, Mississippi. Alabama and Florida
average lower in condition than at the date of
the last report; the Georgia and Texas aver.
age remains unchanged, and an improvement
is sindIcated in the Carolinas, Tennessee and
Arkansas. The percentage of each, as com
pared with the July statement Of last year, is
as follows. North Carolina, July, 1870, "a per
cent; July, 1871, SO per cent. South Carolina,
July, 1870, s6 per cent; July, 1871, 100 per
cent. Georgia, July, 1870, 1ol per cent;
July, 1871, 80 per cent. Florida, July,
1870, SO per cent; July, 1871, ss per ceHt.
Alabama, July, 1870, lo2 per cent; July, 1871,
81 per cent. Mississippi, July, 1870, s6 per
cent; July, 1871, 80 per cent. Louisiana, July,
1870, lO1 per cent; July, 1871, 75 per cent.
Texas, July, 1870 81 per cent; July, 1871, 90
per cent Arkansas, July, 1870, 1ol per cent. ;
July, 1871, go per cent. Tennessee, July, 1870,
IS per cent; July, 1871, ss per cent. While no
estimate can at this early period be authorita-
lively made, this Information leads to the fol-
lowing conclusions: With reduction of ls per
cent, relatively low condition, and d season
as long as that of 1870, there should be gather
ed crop Of 3,2oo,ooo bales, or about as large
as that of 1859; with season of average
length, 1900, 900 bales; with an early frost and
very unfavorable season for picking, 2,700, 900
bales. The prevalence of insects, with other
unpropitious circumstances, would probably re-
duce the crop to 2,5oO,oOO bales; and steady
Improvement of the plan. for sirty days, with
Ne longest and most favorable picking season,
might carry the aggregate up to $500, 600 bales.
This Is represented as fair statement Of
the range of probabilities, based on the most
extensive and reliable data and uninfuenced by
the clamors Of the spectators of the Cotton

Anderson.
The Intelligencer says: "For the last ten
days, we shave had season Of warm, dry
weather. Partial rains have fallen, but none
of very wide scope. The corn and cotton
crops are not suffering. Both are looking fine,
but the cotton Is nearly all weed, as the
growth has been very rapid and unusual"
Darlington.
We regret to learn that In some portions OF
the county the crops are suffering consider
ably from want OF rain. Planters from the
nelghborhood of Doves Depot say that they
have not had q good rain In four weeks. From
ether places the reports continue to be favor
able, showing that rains have been plentiful,
and that the yield viii be as great as ',s was an
for three or four weeks. Yesterday, however,
we had o refreshing little shower, which, al.
though not sufficiently heavy to do the crops
much good, had good effect on. the tempera-
ture. We hope that it Is the first Of a number
CT equally refreshing showers.

The Beaufort Republican, of the 18th. says:
"From all portions Of our county comes to
us encouraging reports OF every crop tnat mas mas

copious rains have finally put 1t In fine con-

article. While the neighboring States have
been deluged by rain, we have had NO more
