Abandoned Villages.

While roaming through the oil country
our interest was excited by having certain
localities pointed out to US as the place
where once stood a small city Perhaps
no part OF the Oil region shows this as
much as that situated between Oil CITY
and Titusville, and no place as much as
Petroleum Centre. We stand amazed
and almost doubt the truth of our inform
ant, when we are told that this is the
Petroleum Centre we saw ten years ago
At that time, as the name implies, it was
the centre of the land OF grease. Sur
rounded as it was the best oil-producing
country, it could not be otherwise.
Vast numbers of houses, stores, machine
shops, etc, were erected in short time,
ana in 1868 it was city of 5000 or 1000
inhabitants. Everybody in oil-dem knew
Petroleum Centre. The city had banks,
immense hotels, large business houses.
and could boast of three or four fine
churches. The whole country around the
place was city. At mig ht 1T was almost
impossible to get through the crowd of
people collected for all kinds of pleasure.
What change! Nothing can be com
pared to it except the destruction of war.
Instead of fine residences, the ground is
now used for potato patches; road
marks the place where the principal
street was; the churches yet stand, but
nobody remains to attend them. Perhaps
there are 100 inhabitants in the town now.
North of Petroleum Ceatre we were'shown
the place where in '66 and '67 was the
famous BenniDgof Run There remains
not sign Of any thing having been there
As many will remember, this was one OF

the best oil territories in the country at
that time. On the northern part of this
farm was small town of the name of
Dublin. 1t had 300 inhabitants, and was
the terminus of the Bennington Run
Railroad. Not single house remains.
In fact, one would think, not knowing any
better, that it had never been cleared.
Many towns like this have gone the same
way. But perhaps the next of import
ance is Pithole. Like Petroleum. Centre,
it is nearly gone.-Erchanqe.

Trip lightly over trouble,
Trip lightly over wrong;
We only make grief double
By dwelling on it long.
Why clasp Woes hand so tightlya
Why sigh over blossoms deadf
Why cling to forms unsightly!
Why not seek JOY insteadf
Trip lightly over sorrow,
Though all the days be dark,
The sun may shine tomorrow
And gayly sing the lark.
Fair Hope has not departed,
Though roses may have fled;
Then never be jown-hearted,
But look for JOY instead.
Trip lightly over sadness,
Stand not to rail at doom
We've pearls to string Of gladness
On this side of the tomb.
Whilst stars are nightly shining,
And heaven is overhead,
Encourage not repining,
But look for Joy instead.

CuURcm RELics USEAK1TED.-On
last Monday morning rs Mr.. Richard
Sayles was passing through Mr. ID.
Tbompson's woods about two miles
northwest Of MartiDsburg, he noticed
a bright piece Of metal sticking out Of
the ground, ard upon examination he
found it TO be a silver candlestick.
Making further search he uneartbed
five more. These caDdlesticks were
stolen from the old Catholic Church in
this city in the year 1845 or 1876,
when Rev Father O'Brien was pastor
OF the congregation. Although proba-
bly, covered up in the ground since
taken from the church they were not in
the least'corroded, being triple plated
with silver There are many strange
happenings in this world, and the find
ing Of these relics after the lapse Of 30
many years may be classed as remark
discriminating Sfaissmom.
