When the first case was called, Mr. Haines, counsel for Hartman, asked that the trial be lamtponed for a week or two, in order that the prisoner might have a fair and impartial trial, which tie tnought would be impossible at the present time, owing to the manner which the city press had dealt with the a8air. No man, he paid, who read the papers could go into the jury box with hi mind unbiased.

Tne Court thought tiiat although same a DOHtponeuieut was in the hands of the DKrict Attorney, and if he insisted upon going to trial the Court would not interfere.

A View uf the Suhject net Heretofore Discussed iiggtt-tiuiis orthy of ou-stderatlou. KoiTOR.s ijAZiTiE Much has recently been said in our City Councils and through the press, concerning the pur- chase of property for the erection of new 1 water works, tuite a number of sites have been suggested, and I incline i i to the opinion that the place rteorn- mended by the Water Committee, which i passed Select Councils and is now under consideration in the Common branch, appears to have more advantages than named.

Stiii, there are some people who have failed to be convinced that there is really a nece.voty for new water works at that or any other point at this time, but believe that our present works, by the expenditure of a comparatively small sum of money, Toty be made to auswer abundantly all purposes for years 10 come. The Water Committee, and some other gentlemen iu Councils, apparently have water worKs on the ihe fact that there is now in existence an expensive institution of that character which might require some attention is almost entirely ignored. To re sure, 1 here have been complaints made concerning the quantity ami quality of the water; but when investigated by a Special Committee of Councils last Summer ths fault was found to be an insufficient supply in the baius and their filthy con- (they had not been cleaned for about a year, and vere not bail full of water,) the Committee reported the facta and recommended an ordinance providing for keeping the basins in better order, nut the report was referred to the Water Committee, and that was the end of it. Now I (submit, wouiii larger water works, in condition described, have remedied this matter So far as supply is concerned, there are some people who assert that if the present reservoirs are kept well filled with water there will be no scarcity of that article anywhere in the consolidated city. if there is riot enough motive power for I the purpose, by not procure another en- jine or two; ii can le done at decidpily jess che tiian tfie purchase of toe proposed Pito will eventually amount to, for that involve the expenditure of three or four milliona of dojlars.

The present position is certainly sulliciently elevated. A responsible of Councils, in prfrsenune a for on extension of wat'r fact lutes in the country districts, asserted that the pressure of the water was almost sufficient to burst the pinea; and surely such force would be enough to t-uppiy the entire city if the requisite quantity of watr was kept in the As to the quality of the water, going up the Allegheny river a few miles cannot possibly much better it. for there is oil ti sting on ihe surface ail the way to bi City. there has been no complaint on ihat score, while other matters were proper condition. These statements are respectfully SHb-milled to the consideration of Council-men, aud others interented.

F. PETU0LKFM EW-. PruUactive P-trtieum l-'itld near Ma-ro-tta, onto. From a correspondence in the Cincinnati Kti'jUircr we learn that on Cow Run, within miles of rittat there is a large tract of land destined BiwiD, it is claimed, to rival any oil territory in the t'niictt States. It haa been ouiy within the year or two that any progress has made toward ita development, but recently men of capital and energy hve turned their attention to the locality and iind that it offers su-perior inducements to 14 oil borera There are one hundred and fifty wells I roducinjr and Ifein and prospects bid fair tor as iuv tU'-re ilown tins winter and nxt spring.

Ttiey are yielding from live tosixtv bsrreis a day. The oil is found mostly in white sand at a depth varying fr-m two hundred and fifty to nire hundred feet. Very frequently oil lsoijtained in wbat is called the first sand, bnt in the majority of casts it is ntt found until tiie second Hnd is reached, which is about aeven bundled feet. Tnre have been, in the last tew weeks, reveral very fine wells struck in tbis territory. Among them is the Home Company's well, which is fl-twing about tw enty barrels per day.
