Tim ber rafts have been dropped down the stream bu: can't say how far, whether they reached Lock Haven or not. We are told that good timber Is bringing a fair price. Mr. Sditor, can't you furnish us with some newa about the Clearfield and Cresson Rail road ? We have something iu that road and we are afraid it is in eo far that we will nev er get it out. Our schools down this way are closing gradually. Most ef them are closing with an exhibition of how many dialogues, dec lamations and essays they learned during the term, and not how much geography, grammar and algehra, to say nothing of tne other studies. I fear If I was to go around to the schools of this locality whether more than half of them could tell me bow many feet there Is in a board 16 feet lung and 14 inches broad, or not. They didn't have time to study such things. Farmkr. Ooaerably Aeejsiltted.
