from which we extract:-
The "Rutland Well" on the
"Nobles farm" in Rutland
township, Meigs county, upon
which much time and money
has been spent, is beginning
to prove remunerative to its
present owners-M essrs. N. N.
Holt & Brothers. Heretofore
it produced about one barrel
of oil per week, and, at length,
for some cause it ceased flow
Ing. Then a torpedo was in
serted, but produced no i'm
mediate effects. However, on
the vening of the 18th of De.
cember, there commenced a
spontaneous flow of salt water
and oil. Since then the yield
of oil alone is three barrels per
day. Salt could also be man
ufactured to good advantage,
as there is sufficient gas emit
ted from the we'll to run a fur
mace free of expense.

WE are pleased TO notice the
introduction, in the State SEN
ate, of a bill by Mr.. Boesel sup
Elementary to the criminal
code, making it the duty Of
the jury, in case of a plea ol
insanity, to return in their YER
dict, first, whether such insan-
ity existed at the time of the
commission of the offense; and,
second, whether it was emo,
tional or temporary, or other
wise. In the first case, the de-
iendant is to be confined in
one OF the lunatic asylums Of
the State for the same length
OF time that he would have
been imprisoned under a YER
dict Of guilty. This is a very
important matter, and it is
due the community of law
abiding citizens that they be
protected while enjoying their
inalienatle rights. Emotional
insanity may be a pleasant af-
Fiction with murderers, but
like the epizootic, when it be-
comes epidemic it's dreadfully
annoying.-OhiO State Jour-
