The attraction lust evening was JArula, and, for an amateur performance, it was an unqualified pneeess. and reflected the highest credit on all engaged in its rendition. Miss 1, who achieved so signal a success in Maria JJi Rohan, having surpassed herself last evening, and her brilliant efforts durinar the performance received a largre stiare of w-ll merited applause.

From her opening aira, luce ui qvrxt anirnri, which was greeted with a rapturous lo the close of the performanre, she was all that the most exacting could performing, indeed, throughout her arduous roie more like a finished nrtiste than a more amateur.

This Svrup will search through every blood vessel, equalizing the circulation, preventing hernorrbfure, separating the iiUe trom the blood, making it healthy aud the circulation natural.

With the aid of he Seaweed Tonic and Mandre.ke Pills, the system resumes iui healthy condition, the purulent matter, and, all ulcerations of the lungs, must yield to their power. In almost every square of Philadelphia there urs persons who have been cured of Consumption in its several stages bv the use of Dr. Sehenck' medicines. Manv persons have been restored to health by these remedies, after being contined to their beds, reduced to mereskeletons.and troubled with coughs, night sweats, hectic fever, and all the other indications of ui advanced stage of the disease; but by an examination with the iu-spirumexer, one lung has been louul to in a tolerably healthy condition. It cannot be doubled that many lives have been savtid by a timely resort to these remedies.

It is true, that in ail cases wlu ro cures are effected, the patient mufct have some lungs remaining, but thousands of VICTIMS OF CONSUMPTION Have descended to their graves who might have been cured if they had come "to Dr. Kchenck in time, and placed themselves under his directions. It is inn denied that some who take Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup die also. They commence loo late. All that Dr.

Sehenck claims" for his medicines is their ability to regulate and invigorate the whole system, to r.pen tha abscesses, and lacilitate the discharge of the morbid matter; to rela the mucous membrane of the bronchial tubes, and to dislodge from these tutn-s the tougta phlegm or purulent matter which obstructs them, and produces serious diseases of the organs of respiration. Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup will prolong hie, sometimes several by keeping the bronchial tubes free from the putrid matter which impedes their functions when the lungs are too tar gone to cure. There is no medicine that can cure Consumption when both, lunirs are much diseased, and Dr. Sehenck would rat hef every one would know their true condition bef.u tak-imr liis medicine, and for this purpose he can tie coa suited at his Principal Office, CORNER OF SIXTH AND COMMERCE STREETS, Philadelphia, every Saturday, from A.

The Committee on Pinance of the City Councils have agreed to report a bill t. Vioir tipxt meeting providing for a loan of one million of dollars for the extension of the Water a I i ji a I I I The property of this Oompanv embraces one hundred and seventy (170) acres ot land, in fee simple, mi the Little Kanawha River, in Wirt county. West Virginia, with a frontage on said river of fully three-fourths (f of a mile, and is three and a half (3'i) miles above Edzabeth, "the county seat," and about the same distance below tiie celebrated Burning Springs. In this tract we have about one hundred and thirtv (130) acre of bottom land, or boring territory, affording sullicieiu room to put down one hundred 0h wells or more, which is a larger amount of boring surface than owned by any other company in this section of the Oil region. A bout the centre of this propertv, and near the bank of the river, is a spring continually discharging oil and gas.

and it is the opinion of oncof the most experienced geologists in Pennsylvania, who has made a careful examination of the tract, it is equal, if not. superior, to any in the Kanawha Valley, for the production of oil. It ha.s been purchased solely with a view to it immediate development, and the Company intend using every known satisfactory appliance to attain that object. The engine and all the necessary tools are now performing their part, and no expense necessary for the rapid development of th property will be spared, the Company being determined to make it productive. Being fully aware of the existence of bogus companies, we invite the most rigid investigation as tothe character of our property, and will be liappv to furnish all the information that may be desired.

PER MONTH ON FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND In calling the attention of capitalists to this enterprise, the Directors have no hesitation in expressing their belief that their return from it will he more certain and more liberal than from any new company now before the community. The property of the Company consists of the following: No. 1. Three-eighths of the working interest in the celebrated Jersey Well, on the Hyde ami Egbert Farm, on Oil Creek, with the acre of land on whi -h the well is located. This well ha-s been flowing since early in May, 1SS4, at the rate of ab iut three hundred and fifty barrels daily, and is now flowing at that rate, thus yielding to the Company between fifty aud sixty barrels daily, worth, at present prices, twenty thousand dollars per month, which will pay to the Stockholders in this Company, MORE THAN THREE PER CENT.

FER MONTH from the start. There Is room on the land for several more wells, two of which will be immediately commenced by the Company, and In which we shall have the same interest as In the Jersey. The character of this property, as oB land, is well known it is only necessary to say that no well on it has ever failed In getting oil, while it has already produced the Maple the Coquette and the Jersey. No. 2.

Twenty-five acres in fee on tiie east side of the Allegheny River, opposite the mouth of Big Sandy. This tract has about forty rods' front on the river, and contains a large amount of boring surface. Oil wells yielding largely are found near this property, among them the Mubbs, the Hoover, c. The Company intend to proceed at once to develope this fine property, and feel sanguine of success. No.

3. A lease of fifteen years on the William B. Wilson Farm, on Slippery Rock Run, in Lawrence Pa. Nos. 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8, are also leases on Slippery Rock Run, containing four hundred acres in all.

They were obtained in April, 1864, by Dr. Egbert, and continue for fifteen years from their date. They secure to the Lessees all the oil and other minerals contained in the several tracts, with the right to divide and sub-let, with all other rights and privileges connected with the business of mining for oil, coal, and other minerals, and reserve a royalty of only one-eighth of said oil or minerals. The. Slippery Rock Territory is a new and only par tially developed oil region: but the success already obtained there and on the Mahoning River, a few miles wst, together with the large quantities oil found north, south, east and west of it, lead us to hope that it will prove a very successful oil region.

The Company have already an excellent engine, tools, and all necessary fixtures, on the grounds, with a well partly down, and will proceed to develope the pro perty as fast as possible. These lands and leases were all selected for oil purposes by the President of this Company, whose great success in the oil business, sterling integrity, and force of character are too well known to require coinment here.
