Henry, who lives near Seneca, with a peculiar tale. Ho says that on a swampy section of his farm, whore he has boen ditching, he has discovered traces of some kind of oil-th? water looks oily, the rocks look as though they had oil all ovor them, the ground ia oily, and roots of trees burn like pitch pine or oil-soaked wood. Of the latter be left several small pieces that look like dead poplar, vi th no ap earance of pitch pine, yet they bnrn rightly while they blaze, and dying looks like the pieces of spunk or punk that everybody about town has used at Christmas time to light tire crackers with. Just what is wrong with the wood we don't know-it is strange, to say the least. Mr. Henry thinks bis land is full of oil; that may be BO, and if so, it may prove valuable to him; some thiuk tho pieces of wood are rich pine roots that have beon changed in appear ance by the aotion of the soil, but with enough trace of the pitch to burn quickly; some think it is just ordinary wood that has been soaked with oil of ?onie kind for a hoax, but Mr. Henry says if it is he knows nothing about it; Borne say it looks like cypre-s; some say one thing and some another as to the wood, but all agree that "it's darned funny." Mr. Henry says the appear ances of oil go boyond his line for some distance on the swampy branch. He thinks strongly of having the soil analyzed to ascertain just what is pecul iar about it. -Don't fail to see me next Saturday. I've got bargains. Ruskin Arderson. -Diamond dyes-all colors.
