On the land of a valuable lease the Company own on the renowned Cherry Run, I7i! Girard has a utell dou-n about 475 feet, with a fttie show of oil, near the celebrated Reed, Auburn, Grocery and Humboldt Wells. In addition to this the Company own in fee five hundred acres of valuable Oil Land in the Tideout oil region and leases on Pit Hole Creek and on the Magnire Farm, fcc. The advantage of having a well down almost ready for testing, dth engines on the ground for completing the work -without de.Uijy, is a very great one, for in companies that have yet to develope their lands subscribers to their stock will have to wait for from six to nine months for a return for their money, whereas in the Girard thirty or forty days from the present time will only be required to secure to them so desirable a consummation.

The shares have been put at the low price of twenty cents each, and as the stock is being rapidly subscribed for (over 100,009 shares were taken yesterday), those of our readers who wish to invest in a good (iompany. promising handsome and speedy returns, shonld enter their names at once on the books of the Girard.

This gallant officer is again heard from, reporting himself on Wednesday at the bridge of the Richmond and Fredericksburg Railroad across the South Anna River. After completing the destruction of the James River Canal, "the feeder of Richmond," as far eastward as Goochland Court House, twenty-eight miles from the Rebel Capital, he moved rapidly to the Virginia Central Railroad, striking it at Tolersville, a village in Louisa county, and forty-five miles northwest of Richmond. This road he effectually destroyed for a distance of fifteen miles.

Generals Custer and Iuvkn were then despatched to burn the bridges at Ashland and South Anna, which they successfully accomplished. An attempt was made by the enemy to save them, but a splendid charge by the Fifth United States Cavalry routed the Rebels, and resulted nt only in the destruction ol the bridges but the capture also of three twenty-pounder I'ar-rottguns. General Shfki dan says he has de-sl roved an enormous amount of Rebel property. He seems to have everything his own way. RLiY, Rossfr and the other Rebel leaders to be utterly powerless.

Sheridan finds no more opiosition than does Sherman. Thus, one by one, are the arteries which feed Richmond severed. The cutting of the James River Canal and the damage done to the Central Railroad, render Rue's situation still more precarious. His supplies are gradually and siucly being cut oft', and the condition of his my and that of the people of Richmond is dHlly becoming more desperate. In his strait Ltv.

As spring is at hand with its attendant removals which, in the cooniry especially, are usually more frequent about the first of Aprjl than at any other season of the year we have thought a few suggestions, more particularly to young housekeepers, would not be unseasonable. We know that every farmer's wife in the land will agreo that, of all the indispensable to a well-regulated the most injlortMnt is a gtrMl. reliable yxk-itig ff'ire. And, for several reasons, this is a doubly important want to every young eonple about embarking in the voyage of married lire. In the first place, without a good cooking arrangement, it is impossible to prepare food properly, the effect of wli.cli is loraime disappointment and irritation, and not unfreqner.tly to impair health, and consequently to mar the peace and happiness of the family.

All this, we have the best reasons for saying, can be avoided by making a moderate investment in one of the inimitable patent "'Anti-dust" Gas-burningCook Stoves of James spear, Nos. 1116 and Ills Market tsti eet. We have already, in more than one instance, taken occasion to speak of these celebrated stoves, because we believed their universal adoption would be a great public benefit. The following remarks concerning these celebrated stoves will not be uninteresting: In their construction Mr. Spear hag achieved a great and scientific triumph, which every Intelligent housekeeper will at once appreciate-Heretofore the great objection to flnt-ttrp cook Stoves have been that they would burn the bread at the top.

and not bake it at the bottom; also, their small size of even, and the constant burning out of the gratis, brick and centre pieces together with the accumulation ot dust and dirt in the flow, without any adequate menus of cleaning them tit; also, the collection of ashes under the grates. Causing them to smelt out frequently, and thus ren dering the stove worthless. In the Spear "Anti-dust" Crn-burning ooking Move li tirf nbjrrttimt are m-ti iy ovemtinr un-i, in our judgment, it approximates more nearly to perfection than any other stove extant. It not only possesses the admirable qualities a. ready described, but for baking, broiling, boiling-Ft 'wins and every other description of cooking, it is as much superior to any other cooking stove in use as is the passt-ugei railway car over the old omnibus.

hie important leaiure of these splendid stoves is the fact that they their own ashes, by which process all the coal, even to the sum! lest particles, is saved for consumption, which, at the present htyh rate of fuel is a valuaojc consideration. Indeed.it can be demonstrated that these celei. ruled toves more than pay lor their in the vhig of fuel in iess than three years' use. Jcsides this, the superior cleanliness to an ap irtment which their use insures is another great ad-vinta a not a particle of dust can escape from We make these statement- from observation, having seen one of the Stove-i in question in operational Mr. Spear's Warerooms yesteraaj where the public can examine it for themselves at all times.

The whole Stove is, indeed, a wonderful piece of mechanism, and is at once a credit to it- enterprising patentee, and a real convenience to the people, who. by the way. are alt -sting their appreciation of it in a practical manner, a- the following extracts from letters received by Mr. Spear will show no. 1 copy.

IKUVMXIITOWN, August. Mr, James Spear: Dear Sir: Your 'Anti-dust" is the most completely arranged Cooking Stove that I have ever used.

Iu conclusion' we would urge upon our readers everywhere, who may be in need of cooking stoves, the wisdom of visiting Mr, Spear ware rooms, at Nos. 1116 and ills Market street, the acknowledged head-quarters of the stove trade in Philadelphia. Persons wishing to do so can order these stoves in either of the sizes, by mail and have them forwarded at Mr. Spear's own risk as to their safe delivery; indeed, he is now daily receiving scores of orders in this way from all accessible parts of the Union.
