The big petroleum find in Warren
County, Penn, of q few weeks ago, the
wells that produce 1000 bbls. of oil
daily, has been supplemented by
another which yields its 2,4OO bbls. OF
magnificent oil daily. If such discov-
cries as these are not sufficient to de-
moralize the oil markets, it is difficult
to say what would be. There ought to
be an instantaneous reduction in kero-
sene. The latest prices range between
5419c and soc per barrel, and there is
no reason why people should continue
to pay Is, 20 and 25 cents per gallon
for their oil. Your grocer would not
hesitate to shove up the price on oil
were there a rise in the market, al
though he bought it when oil was
cheap. You should demand the same
privilege when it goes down, even
though he sells it alta loss.

The season of metamorphoses is
again here. Not only are tadpoles
turning into lusty frogs, grubs into
droning beetles, eggs into spring
chickens or young birds Of whatever
sort, and caterpillars into golden but
terflies; but host of young humanity
is being metamorphosed from school
misses and masters, college students,
etc., into young graduates. The season
is a lively one there promises to be a
bountiful supply, and it is a good thing.
1t is far better to swallow our wrath
when told that there are thousands of
young know-nothings being turned out
as graduates from colleges and schools
all over the country, and that some
particular friend Of ours who has grad
uated really knows little or nothing
worth the acquiring, than buster and
get excited over it. For we know that
time spent in diligent attempt at self
Improvement, that the stability given
to the aim of young person who
stands up in the community in which
e.dwells, and is viewed as the finished
product of an institution to which so
much honor is accorded, cannot be
otherwise than beneficial to him.
Half the discredit that attaches to
the name of young graduates is the
fact that after graduation they quietly
succumb; they consider graduation the
ultimatum, and they are not to blame.
1t takes a year or two to get them over
such notions, and then when they en-
ter upon the detailed duties of life their
school drill becomes valuable; but they
are not remembered then as graduates.
The fact that they have completed an
honorable course at school is lost sight
of. 1t cannot be expected that young
6edglings right from school are going
to turn the world topsy-turvy in a mo-
ment. A few years will see them
showing of what advantage their edu-
cation is to them.

The committee on Foreign Affairs
have completed their investigation of
the Chili-Peru controversy. Their re-
port will probably not be acted upon
before the next session. The investi-
CATION has been a long one. There is
one point which may be considered as
having been satisfactorily settled-the
man Shirherd is the biggest liar and
fraud in America. Mr.. Blaine comes
out of the controversy as good as he
went in, and the investigation has
utterly failed to find anything damag-
ing to the character of the ex-Secretary.

The correspondence on the battle OF
Chickamagua, in which an attempt has
been made to vindicate Rosecrans and
sully the name of Garfield, does not
bring fruit. The position in which
Rosecrans left the Army of the Tennes-
see and the safety to which it was
brought by Thomas are too well
known, and the part Garfield played in
that great battle too well understood
for any calumny to hurt their honOred
names.

The new Secretary Of the Navy has
recently expressed himself upon the
condition of the American Navy before
a Boston Club. His views are quite
in accord with what seems to be the
prevailing sentiment everywhere,
namely, that our navy needs strength
enlng. Compared with the second
rate powers of Europe and South
America, the navy of the United States
is notably unworthy. Italy, with hel
two unmatched iron-clads, could
steam into New York Bay or Boston
IIarbor and in a few hours annihilate
the shipping there, and this country
could offer no resistance. The Secre
tary thinks that our navy ought to be
put in better trim promptly. Ht
favors the construction of many new
vessels, especially iron clads for harbo1
defenses, and few fast frigates thai
shall be unmatched upon the sea fol
heetness and fighting qualities. -Four
such frigates, steel-cIld, equipped
without regard to expense, with guns
of the longest possible range, ant
manned as becomes a great naval pow
er, would place the United States in {
more enViable DOSitiOn. The Secretary
thinks vessels can be constructed il
the United States that will outspeed
out-man@uver, and Outright anything
that now plows the sea. Instead Of
such a condition now there are numer
GUS half-constructed war vessels rot
ting at their wharves, waiting appro
priations to complete them.

Eaeaped from tbe Conytet Camp.

On Monday, the 18th inst, an account
was given in the MORNING News Of the
arrest of Orange Holloman, colored, on the
charge Of stealing goods from the ware
house of the steamer Katie. He was tried
10 the City Court and was sentenced to SIX
months on the chain gang. On the 18th he
WAS carried out to the convict camp at Guy
Ter swamp, bus it seems he did not fancy
that resort, or was rather not pleased with
the employment offered him, as on Saturday
night. the 22i, after only four days sojOurn,
he skipped away lightly without bidding
the guard goodbye. His disappearance
vas not known until Sunday morning, and
It is supposed became to the city, got some
friendly negro to give him a suit of clothes
for MS striped uniform, snd then waltzed
across the river TO the paradise Of fugitive
criminals from Chatham.

Malicious Prosecution.

Yesterday morning case was heard be-
fore Magistrate Molina In which Mr.. Ernest
Mickler was charged by one Chalmers NJ.
Benson with carrying concealed weapons,
and also with misdemeanor (pointing pistol
at another). After hearing the testimony
for the State the Magistrate decided not to
hear the defense and hOnorably discharged
Mr.. Mickler, as the evidence for the prose-
cutiOn not only failed to make out case,
but in the opinion Of the Magistrate the
entire proceeding was a malicious prosecu-
ton on the part Of the prosecutor, as it
was not shown that the defendant had s
concealed weapon or that there had been
any difficulty between the parties. We are
informed that there will probably be other
proceedings instituted.

The particulars of the sad death OF young
Edward P. Henderson, and the narrowing
circumstances preceding It, are familiar 20
our readers, and # is unnecessary to reea-
pitulate them. W. G.. Fairchild, who Is
indicted for the murder, has been In jail
since the night of the tragedy, the 26th OF
December last.
Yesterday morning the case was brought
up for trial in the Superior Court, and the
State and defense being ready, the empan-
ueling of the Jury was proceeded with.
About an hour and a half was consumed In
selecting jury, forty-four going on for va
riOus causes, such as opposition 10 capital
punishment, prejudice, etc. The following
is list of the jurors chosen:
Robert Hunt. James r Raines,
Thomas j. Powers, George B. Pritchard,
Bernard Goode, Thos. w. Henderson,
II. II. FriersOn, VIM. T. Silva,
Alexander Reagan, Moses L. Jackson, C
VIM. p. NcKeuna, John Z. Walsh.
The hearing Of the testimony was com
menced at - m.
The defendant, looking pale and haggard,
sat Just in the rear of his counsel, his wife
occupying the seat beside him throughout
the entire day.
The court room was thronged from the
commencement OF the TRIAL, ana uuilnR INC
afternoon was literally packed, there being
deep interest generally felt in the case.
The testimony for the State was not mate
rally different from that adduced at the
Coroner's inquest.
The defense introduced several witnesses,
and efforts were directed to impeaching the
testimony OF one of the principal State wit
nesses, several of the defendants witnesses
stating they would not believe him under
oath, and that he bore very bad character
for truth and honesty. With one exception,
however, these opinions were based on hear
say.
Mr. Fairchild made a brief statement, de-
claring that he had no intention of doing
this wrong, and that the recollection of 1t
was like some horrid dream. He did not
know what he was doing at the time; had
no luminosity toward the unfortunate lad,
and would not have committed such a
wrong had be been conscious OF his acts.
he spoke feelingly, but very briefly.
At eight o'clock the testimony was closed,
and court took a recess until half-past nine
O'Clock this morning, when argument will
be heard and the case submitted TO the
jury.
The. State IS represented bv Solicitor Gen
eral Charlton and Lester & Ravenel. and
the defense by Chisholm & Erwin, A. 2.
Adams and Robert Falligant.
MessTs. Henderson, of Aiken and Wal
terboro, s. c., cousins of the father of the
deceased, and prominent lawyers in South
Carolina, were present In the court room
during the day.
