BURTIS; nov3 Lecture Committee THE In reference to tho delivery of oil, it is alleged that ull cars are loaded as rapidly a they are brought in, and as tho circumstances of the case will allow, and as could reasonably be expected, and that all cara between Boyd Farm and Titasville were loaded last night, and that the Boyd farm switch could have loaded more had they been in readiness. -It is to bo' hoped that all matters of business and contracts will bo settled in a fair and amicable spirit and conducted in the liberal manner that has always characterized transaction! in the oil market on Oil Creek.

SKtnMisn NEAR TARU FAIIM. Yesterday afternoon as the np passenger tram, due here at 4:20, arrived at Rouseville an American citizen of African descent entered the last, or "oil-mens" car, and walked leisurely down the for a seat. Not finding any that suited, he waited until the train reached Tjrr Farm, when approaching a double, or turned scat, occupied by two young Americans, he attempted to turn one of tbe seats and appropriate it to his own use. This, tbe occupants resented, when becoming angry at tbe impudence of the white trash, the colored man threatened to throw the stubborn passenger out of the window, accompanying the threat with an odious epithet that usually means "fight." Here the white man allowed bis "dander" to rise and alter laying off his overcoat and hat proceed to poluh off the male brunette, getting in from fifteen to bugle- smashera on his nob," closing up one eye and spilling the claret, which flowed down tbe car-floor. Having satisfied himself, the pugilist took his seat and resumed conversation, while "the colored troops who fought nobly" (in a horn) retreated at the next station.

CORONEK'S INQUEST ON THE KILLING OP K.IOHTLINOER The inquest on the body of Rowland Kightlinger, who was shot in Hydetown last Saturday, waa resumed on Monday morning by Coroner Curtis of this city, at the residence of Mr. Abraham Kightlinger, the father of deceased. After viewing the body, a permit was granted for its interment On repairing to the shool-home at Hydetown, tho testimony of a large number of witnesses was taken, developing substantially the same facts -which have already been narrated in, our published account of the catastrophe on Monday last. The following is an abstract of the extended verdict which was rendered last night at seven o'clock. That the death of Rowland Kightlinger resulted from an accidental gun shot wound that one Qeo.

Turner is supposed to have used said weapon or gun in aeif defence while being attacked without just cause or provocation, and while traveling in his wagon in the public highway that the firing of the gnn by tho said George Turner, and the accidental killing of Rowland Kightlingor was a justifiable homicide in self defence. This is an extraordinary conclusion to arrive at, and seems to involve tome confusion of ideas as to the language, and the rignifioation of legal terms. If the killing was accidental, it could not have been in self defence, and if it was'iu self defence it would have been excusable homicide not justifiable homicide, according to tho accepted definitions of criminal law. THE GBKAT WRESTLING MATCH--MCLAUGHLIN TUB several weeks the principal topic of conversation in sporting circles, and even among those who are supposed to remain entirely "neutral," on all subjects relating to the "manly or sports of the arena, has been the com- ng match between Major James H. McLaughlin of Oncida, New York, and J.

3. Benjamin, who is from Washington City. Sinee the two contests daring the summer at this point, between McLanghlin and Homer Lane, and later with DeWitt, both of which resulted in favor of the former, tho Major" has been a resident of this city and has won many friends by his gentlemanly deportment and the avoidance of tho many small vices that serve to degrade all manly sports, and oast a shade upon what would otherwise become favorite and healthful exercises. About the 18th of November the articles of agreement wore concluded between Major McLanghlin and J. J.Benjamin, by which a wrestling match was decided to bo hold at Corinthian Hall, in this city, Bee.

Ctb, for $500 a side, and the champion belt of America, best two in three, fair back falls to decide the contest, etc. About 8 o'clock last evening the hall was filled with a largo "and respectable audience, comprising representatives from nearly every town in the oil region, tho usual members of the sporting fraternity, heavy oil men, etc. OBTTIKO TO WORK. At precisely seven minutes to nine o'clock the assemblage was called to the articles of agreement read and tho champion belt placed in the hands ot the referee, Samuel Fertig, for disposal to the winning party. The belt which has been previously described is a handsome one of the best rnorricco leather, exhibiting the national colors, red, white and blue, with a heavy silver clasp, upon which is set a largo diamond and bearing tho inscription: "Won by J.

H. McLaughlin, at the International Tournr ment, held at Detroit, March 10, 1870." ROUXD FIRST Both contestants promptly on time get to work. Several feints in pa sses ind ulgcd in by to sound tho strength of the enemy. After some lively "tip-toeing" and maneuvering, McLanghlin fetches Benjamin down after some lively work the latter again "kneels" gracefully. Here somo very lively foot sparring occurred, and the wrestlers wore evidently sounding their muscles After a lively set to, both are brought to the ground, but without breaking their hold or gaining any decisive victory.

A rest then ensued. Time oi first round, nine minutes. SECOSD round was called at 13 minutes past 9 o'clock and both of the "boys" went to work with the idea of "doing their level best" A desperate struggle, which proved the strength of each contestant ensued, during which Mc- Laughhn was partly thrown, followed by Benjamin's nearly getting "upset" though recovering his position by a dextrous movement. More lively work--pigeon- wings cut by bjth and Benjamin again feeling the carpet with his knee-pans. Round ended in fne minutes by Benjamin gett.Dg "laid in his little bed" by the Major.

THIRD at half past 9 o'clock, the wrestlers square on time and to work without any fooling. After a steady siege of three minnjes duration, during which each -seemed chary of the other's movements, MoLaugliHn was final' ly tlirown by Benjamin. Fooivrn was the decisive round and at eighteen minutes to 10 o'clock the principals, buckled in with some lively stepping during which no grass was allowed to grow beneath their feet. It was an oven match the strength and skill of each- was thrown into tbe After two minutes of severe exercise, Mr. McLaughlin placed his man in a horizontal position and was then declared the winner of the contest.

Loud cheers were given for tho winner, and Cills for a speech made when tbe Msjor stepped forward, and said GENTLEMEN--I am not hero to make a speech, nor am I able, nor prepared to do so, but I came here to work and I suppose you all know I have had to do so. I am a "poor boy," but I have never yet seen tho man who is able to take this belt from me. Here tho crowd called for Benjamin, who made his appearance amid deafening cheers and said: GENTLEMEN I thank yon for your attention and courtesy to mo a stranger in jour town. I have but lately met Mr. McLanghlin and I find him a good inan, Perhaps I might meet him again.

Capt. Billy Gray then indulged in some choice" flowers" of rhetoric and tbe assemblage dispersed with cheers for the champion wrestler of Here and There. --Union Mills has started a barrel factory, and turns oufrlOO barrels per "day. --The oil city limes has given np the tbe Herdio House.

THB BOBBKTS NlTBO- GLYCEIIINE STORE HOUSE AND FACTORT is THE VICINITY OF TrrosviLLE By reference to tho Venango court Record, which our reporter at Fraqklin ssndg and which appears in, another column, i will be seen that the grand jury of that county have found a bill of indictment against the Roberts' ot tnii city. This bill is founded upon the fact of their locating their nitro-glycerico storehouse and manufactory in Cherrytree township, within said county. They are charged with, on the 23th day of November, 1870, and on other nnlaw- and impravidently receiving and keeping, and still keeping, a large quantity, to wit, two tons ol -very dangerous and extremely explosive substances, commonly called' "compound powder," and "nitro-glycerine," to the common nuisanop, and great danger of the good cltizent of the commonwealth.

The last explosion of the Roberts worlds, which sent the poor, fortnnate Bropby to his last account, in the twinkling of an eye, and which shook the city to its) centre, causing a great deal of damage and destruction to property is freshly remembered, and bu naturally excited a wholesome fear and anxiety of another similar catastrophe in the minds of the people, and our Council have by unanimous vote, wisely, prohibited the storage or transportation of "the perilous staff" in our city. The pretent location of the works is scarcely less threatening to tho city than before, and a decent regard for the lives and property of their fellow citizens demand their removal to a place of more perfect isolation and security. Wo may have occasion to refer to thirt onriieot attain at the proper time. --The Erie Obsercec- remarks-: It is enough to make an Brie publisher sick to compare tho advertising columns of the Titusville papers with those of this city.

Plead guilty, and sentenced to 'pay a fine Coal-Mines of tbe Oil Region --Excursion to the-Cranberry -Coal" Company's nines. OIL Crrr, Nov. 30, 1870. EDITORS HERALD large excursion party, composed oi the principal business men of this locality visited to-day, by special invitation, tho mines of the Cranberry Coal Company, located on Sago Ran, four and a half miles from Venango City. Promptly at half past one o'clock, p.

the assembled guests in a passenger car provided especially, and to which was attached" the company's staunch, locomotive Lehigh started from A. V. Depot, After a pleasant interval of twenty minutes, they disembarked at, the mines, and the car was sent back for ano'Jier load of tho folks who are always late on such After a brief inspection of the admirable arrangements for screening, weighing and loading the coal on the care, several trains of coal bnggies, in charge of of the miners, and laden with the excursionists, wont on an exploring expedition into the and after ajtime the parties returned highly pleased at the novel sensations experienced by a trip on the underground railroad," and the sights witnessed. After spending an exceedingly pleusant afternoon tho excursionists returned to Venango City. Upon arriving at the depot, an impromtu meeting was improvised in tho car, and a vote of thanks returned to tho Cranboi ry Coal Company, ably represented by their President, C.

TV. Ranch, for the very pleasant excursion projected and so agreeably earned out by them. Mr. Ranch, on behalf of the company responded in. fitting terms, and tho excursionists returned to their homes.

The property ot tho Cranberry Coal Company comprises and is located on Sago Run in Cranberry and a half miles from Venango City. The elevation at tho mouth of the rained abovo the level of the Allcghenj river is 540 feet. This furnishes a gravity road from the mines to tho terminus at Venango City unequalled. Until within the last two years, but little effort was mado to mine any considerable amount of coal, or to provide proper facilities for transportation. During the present year arrangements having been perfected for making direct connection witli linos of railroad centering here, a new road, laid with heavy rail, has been built by the company, nnd every facility provided to enable them to supply their present, and even a ucli larger demand.

Tho present capacity of the mines is two hundred tons per day. Ready sulo is found for this and more could bo sold To meet this nnd their increasing demand, tho company are providing all the neoes requisites. Lack of i i i is the drawback just now. But this soon bo remedied The coal deposit of the company's Ian is immense, consisting of nine feet of workable coal, in three separate vuns Sufficient, -fto should think, to supply the entire oil country for years to come. The coal is of good quality, and for all steam purposes is pronounced by competent, judtrea to answer the purpose as well as any other coal brought to this market mines arc iu a working con- dition'oxcolled by none other in tho joun- try, and the facilities for transportation ample in'all respects.

As the people 111 our State havo ever" been noted for their tenacity in their advocacy ol "protection" for protection in their mining products hers is a fair opportunity afforded for making a practical application of the ished doctrine by the people of tho oil region. Tho daily con 3 umTtiou of coal by producers of oil is taxing to their full capacity ull the lines of railroads centering or running into the oil region The freight per ton paiifor foreign coal would almost or quite put down tho cranberry coal nt LOCAL NOTICES. (lifferent points on the railroads, if the supply we havo nbovo indicated were takcu instead of coal from a distance The greater amount of the money thus saved will bo expended hero instead of other places, and all would reap the benefit of such a practical adoption of home protection."
