Feeling in Pennsylvania.
--A large public meeting, presided over by the Hon. Frederick Watts, was held at Carlisle, Pennsylvania, on the 22d ultimo, and strong conservative sentiments enunciated.
Resolutions were unanimously adopted recognizing as building upon all the Constitution as interpreted by the Supreme Court; recognizing as a constitutional right the existence of slavery in the South; declaring the surrender of fugitive slaves to be a duty under an inviolable contract, and denying that secession is either a natural right or a constitutional remedy.
The oil coming with a rush.
--A letter from Tideonto, the headquarters of the oil bubble in Pennsylvania, says that a monster well had just been discovered.
It is now forty-eight hours since it was struck, and 200 barrels are barreled up, and two large tanks and one flat-boat full, besides a great deal lost on the river and banks, and still continues to boil, roar and surge, and throw up a stream through a four-inch hole from forty to fifty feet high.
Oil sells 23 to 25 cents at the wells, cash.
