PARKEnspuEG, W. Va, Dec. 1.-THE
oil excitement at and near Harrisyille,
Ritchic county, is again at fever heat.
Yesterday evening between four and
five O'Clock, the we'll on Dump Wilson'S
farm, half way between that place and
pennsboro, came in booming. Oil was
struck at the depth Of l,S00 feet, and
when first tapped, threw oil over the
top of the derrick.
The getting OF oil at this well proves
conclusively that Harrisvile is about in
the center OF the oil belt or anticline,
and will now be thoroughly developed
in a very short time.

LONDON, Dec. 1.-THE Times says: !:
The whole monetary system in the
United States is in a muddle. This con-
dition OF affairs s due 10 piecsmeal leg
islation by unprincipleI legislators. I'm.
fortunately instead OF there being signs
OF amendment, it looks likely that fur.
ther attempts will be made to legisats
in favor OF PARTICULAR classes. The most
oIUnous OF these attemps is the demand
OF the Farmers Alliance for more cur.
rency, and that the national banks shall
be compelled to lend money on the se-
curity OF real estate. II the latter de-
mand is ever granted America will be
launched on the dangerous path which
the Argentine Republic has trod since
the evil day the first cedula was issued.
The present crisis is OF IN ordinary char.
acter, but is made worse by foolish
monetary arrangements. The only safe
cure for it is liquidation.

AN APPEAL
TO DIR. OLIVER WENDELL HOLMES.

THE Hartford, the grand old ship which bore
Admiral Farragut to New Orleans and Mobile, is
now lying in "Rotten Row" at Mare Island Navy
Yard and is liable to be sold uEder the law which
forbids the repair of any vessel at an expense of
over 20 per cent of her original cost, unless Con-
Rress interposes by passing law to make an ex-
ception in her favor.
o bard who saved Old Ironsides,
Strike once again your Tyre;
Shake off the weight of four-score years
And sing with wonted fire.
Another grand old war ship
In danger stands to-day,
ship that's borne our banner
Through many storm and fray.
Her guns are still, her sacred decks
No more do heroes tread
And he who won her fame and his
Is with the silent dead.
But think the brave old admiral
Would look down from above
And weep, if souls may weep In heaven,
To see his pride, his love,
His ship-the grand old Hartford
Which neither foe nor gale
Could conquer, now grown old and worn,
Put up at last for sale.
Sold to the highest bidder
oh, shame! 1t must not be.
What make the war-worn charger
dray-horse of the sea!
And we who fain would save her,
Oh we are all so weak.
We have no bard to sing her praise,
No mighty tongue to speak.
But you who by one song grew great,
While yet your muse was young,
And still would fill a nations heart
Though naught beside you'd sung,
Add to the debt we cannot pay,
And strike your Tyre once more
To save the dear old Hartford
From the "harpies of the shore"
