The communication from Boggs town

THE NEW CABINET
The following Cabinet appointments
j Afore sent into the Senate on Monday last,
and immediately confirmed by that body.
It is pecisely as published by us last week,
i Wm. L. Marcv, of New York, Sccreta
. ry of State.
James Guthrie, of Kentucky, Secretary
of tho Treasury.
R. M’Clelland, of Michigan, Secretary
of the Interior.
Jefferson Davis, of Mississippi, Secreta-

THE INAUGURATION AND THE ADDRESS.
Our readers will perusc'uith pleasure
the Inaugural Address of President Pierce,
which will be found at length in our col
umns to-day. It is a splendid production, i
and clearly foreshadows every thing that]
the great democratic party hoped for and
ipromised from the new administration.—
In the language of a correspondent, “it is
flat-footed upon every question.” The
same correspondent says :—“The address
was delivered extemporaneously, and in a
manner that excited the admiration of all
who heard it. Gen. Pierce is very young
looking, but in his appearance gives cer
tain evidence ofintellect and firmness.
THE STATE TICKET
We publish to-day such portion of the
proceedings or tho lato Democratic State
Convention as our limits will admit of—
and from which our readers will learn that
most admirable selections have boen made
able men —worthy men—and men who
haye done honor to the stations they have
heretofore filled, and who will continue to
do so.
Thomas H, Forsyth, the candidate for
Canal Commissioner, is an industrious,
hardworking, intelligent mechanic a car
penter, we believe —and has represented
the county of Philadelphia in the State
Senate for several years. He has many
qualifications that highly fit him for the
station to which it is proposed to elevate
him.
Ephraim Banks, the nominee for Aud
itor General, is well known to many of our
citizens, and his unanimous nomination for
re-election hundsomely attests the manner
in which his services in that capacity, and
his standing as a man and a Democrat,
are appreciated by the people.
J. Porter Brawley, the present Sur
veyor General, was nominated for re-elec
tion on the scond ballot. Mr. B. has dis
charged his duties faithfully, and the oppo
sition to him did not arise from any com
plaints on this score. His election, togeth
er with the whole State ticket, may be con
sidered as among the certainties of the fu
ture.
OirSomo of the Post Masters betwee n
this and the railroad are in the habit of
treating us very badly, and whether by
design or accident, we are unable to say.
Subscribers can get their Philadelphia and
New York papers with reasonable regu
larity ; but for the last two weeks the la
test paper we have received has been four
days after date. The extent of this griev
ance may be judged when it is known that
thirty hours is.all the tjme necossarily re
quired-
If the P. M. at Spruce Creek would put
all matter for this placo in ttys way mail,
he would particularly accommodate the
business of this office, ns the P , M. at this
place is not allowed time enough to over
haul the through mail.
To be Decided. — The log-floating
question on Clearfield creek, as soon as the
wator gets high enough.
lumbermen have been very ac
tively engaged for the last two weeks in
rafting-in their timber and hoards, ready
to be. sent to market on the flood, which
was expected about this time, but dja not
come. May it come soon, and may they
have a prosperous and profitable time.

once, by having a proper paid fire depart- 1
ment, with men to fulfil the duties compe- || “S-glgi!||||||k|
tent for tho work required. The having “
a well-regulated paid Fire Department, es- j
tablished by authority of law, has boenj
tried in other countries, and the result otj
I those tho best regulated, has been to lower,
| the rato of insurance on losses by fires to j
ja very small premium, compared to what j
is now paid in Philadelphia. |
But suppose, that, in consequence of one;
of or quarrels of the fire com- j
navies, or from any olher cause, they re
fuse to act when a fire occurs, how great
would bo the disaster! This should not
be left in a way that it could occur.
Again : —Are not.many of the hose nnd
engine houses only so many places for
young men, and boys, to meot, drink, and
gamble—if not to do worse. Are not the
fights and riots among the fire companies
so frequent, and of such a character, as to
render the ixtatter one of serious consider
ation to every citizen of the commonwealth
who has the credit of that great city at
heart? Is it not notorious, that many of
our young men, by the excitement oftho
fire engines and hose, are led away from
their employments ani duties, when in
reality they are frequently of little or no
service at the fires.
We should think flint tho citizens of
Philadelphia ought to tako effective meas
ures to put down this crying evil. Their
representatives in the State Legislature
should take the lead. But if they don’t, we
hope the country members will take the mat
ter in hand and pass the necessary laws on
tho subject. There should bo no half-way
work about it. The volunteer fire system
should bo abolished ontirely. A Paid Fire
Department—the chief officers of which
should be made police officers, with full
power to act both as a Fire Department
and a Police, so that they could arrest all
persons at fires who do not disperse when
required to do so.
If some such system was adopted, our
word for it, we would hear of fewer fires
in our great commercial capital; and when
we should hear of one it would bo unac
companied with a fight and a riot a thing
’.hat rarely happens now.
CLEABFIELD Jr. INSTITUTE.
This Institute met on Tuesday evening
last, which was duly organized by J. P.
Kratzer taking the chair, when the ques
tion, “Should /tm.Legislature of Pennsyl
vania pass a law similar to the Maine Li
quor law,” came up for discussion, which
was ably and eloquently arged and de
cided in tho negative. The meeting then
adjourned to meet on Tuesday evening
next, when the question, “would the ac
quisition of Canada bo beneficial to tho
United States,” will be discussed, at which
time it is hoped there will be a full turn
out of the’ members.
D. G. NIVLING, Sec’y.
Sake of Lands in Illinois.— A bill is
now before the Legislature of Illinois, to
provide for tho sale of State lands and li
quidation of State indebtedness, and to
grant the right of pre-emption to settlers on
State land. Among its provisions are the
following:—Thnt all lands owned by the
State shall bo offered for sale withfn
twelve months; none to be sold for less than
$3,50 per acre—the lands to be sold at Jhe
county seats of the counties in which they
lay; that said lands shall be subject to pri
vate entry if not sold at auction; the lands
to be sold for gold and silver, to be used in
the purchase of State indebtedness. The
hill has passed the Senate, but remains to
be acted on in the House.
