Oil in Ohio. Marietta, December 14. --Considerable excitement has been created at Macksburg, on Duck creek, a few miles from this city, owing to a flowing well of petroleum having been struck by the workmen of the Equitable Company of New York. Marietta is less than thirty miles from the famous oil wells in West Virginia--on the opposite side of the Ohio river, of course. Petroleum will probably be found in every part of the country. Southside Virginia has surface indications of its presence; and, accordingly, we notice that a company has been organized (or projected, at least,) in Lynchburg, for the purpose of boring for oil in that vicinity. It costs but little to experiment-- comparatively little, we mean — and a successful experiment would prove a source of untold wealth to the lucky company or individual.
