|kal §(prtmcnt. THURSDAY, JAN., 10 1861 A Reasonable Reason. The other day we re ceived a letter from a man who lives not a thousand miles from Bellefonte, in which he expressed the desire that we would discon tinue his paper, and gave as his reason that We only published fifty pumb3:s in a volume, while there are fifty-two weeks in a year.— This is certainly a good reason for stopping a paper, when we take into consideration the fast that a great majority of county weeklies in the Union pursue the same course, thus allowing editors and publishers the first we k in July and the last week in December, for rest, recreation and repairs. County news papers do not employ more than the requi site number of hands to perform the usual amount of labor, and then when extra work comes in we must work early and late to perform it. Thus, day after day and week after week, we are compelled to remain at home and toil, in order that the paper may appear ; while those engaged in almost any Other department of business can come and when they see proper. We do not wish to be understood as complaining because we are obliged to labor, for we delight in rt, it is bonurable and to us pleasant ; we ex pect to labor so long as we live. But we merely wish to show that we do work and because we work we nejd iest occasionally. This is one reason why we only publish fif numbers in a year. Another reason is that we need time to repair the office, for a printing office like everything eUe will gel out of repairs. Again, we think that fifty numbers of a newspaper is a fair equivolent for the price of subscription. There are other reasons for pursuing this course fut these are sufficient to satisfy any reasonable pan. Away, then, with a man who would stop a paper for suah a reason as this we would bo sorry to keep his namo upon our bonks, for if there is any thing upon ear'h which wu despise it ig a penurious, miserly man ; and certainly no other than such vro'd deny himself the benefits of a newspaper for an entire year foi the price of two numbers which amounts" to a sixpence. From the earliest period of our b >yhood we entertain ed the idea of becoming a printer. At the proper time we come to this town to learn the trade. We have worked at the business far several years and like it above eyety oth >er trade, and would dislike very much to -quit it ; but if we thought we would be •impelled to labor for men who are guilty f such small acta as the above, we would abandon it and never stick auother type. Notwithstanding this man's withdrawal the Ctntre Dctnocrat will continue to be publish •d weekly, with the exception of the two weeks above mentioned. Ths Protracted Meeting. The Methodist pro traded meeting in this place, ha? been pro greening tor five weeks, and the eff.rts have been crowned with good results. The meet ing is growing in interest every eight and the altar is crowded on all occasions with anxious penitents. On last Sunday evening Rev. John Tinner preached one cf the most ablo and e oquet t sermons ever delivered in this town. The house was literally crowdi d and the immense cngregati< n listened with breathless silence and depp interest to the •srninti for almust an hour. After the set* ■ton Rev. Sherlock ddivetsd a most stirring exhortation, which had uauch effect upon the congregation. Mr. Sherlock has, since ♦he opening of this meeting, labored with un'iiing energy and manifested a zoal which we never saw equalled. Not only at night doss he labor for the cause of Christ, but ftom the rising of the sun until the stting of the same be is.engaged in all quarters of our town, in influencing sinners to repent, and exhorting his 'church to dilligence and duty. T# Lovers of the Beautiful, take No tico, That Hhos. J. Taylor, the great pic ture man, has located in Mileeburg. lie has lately got up a New Car, both large and beautiful, where he is alwavs ready anda6fe to take the most beautiful pictures of all kinds. We have seen many of his pictures, and pronounce tuem very good' The other day he efcawed us a photogtaph of a young lady, in Milesburg, which was so life-like and perfect, that we imagined it was a lady in stead of a picture, and made a convulsive ef fort to her red, rosy, pouting, pretty lips. We suspect had it bean a live lady •be would have presented the heart of her hand to our mouth with a hearty good will, •aying, " take that you inky brat." If you don't believe just every thing we say, just be lieve a part and go see for yourselves.— Knowing that the times are hard, Mr. Tay lor has made his prices to suit tbem. Agaiu we eay, call and see for yourselves. Cheap and beautiful pictures cannot fail to please you. An Oily Storv. ike biggest oil story yet out is told of a well near l'idioute. On Friday of last week, " while workmen were steadily boriDg at the depth of about one hundred feet, with scarcely a show of oil, the drill of sudden opened the jugular roin, and the oil began to rise. It struck an Irishman in iha lace and knocked him over, passed up Ahrough the top .of the derrick, and squirted a four inch stream clean over the tops of the trees. Several ,large pits around the well were speedily filed, then a flat boat was got, which sraaalso filled, and then it pouted in to thp river raising up to bigh water mark, •0 that the boats and lumbar rafts unexpec tedly started for market. On Sunday it was •till spouting." Tidioute is a great country. Ain't Wa Lucky. On last Saturday wo re oeived from our neighbor and friend, Saia'l.

List Tuesday beitig the anniversary of the battle of New Or leans, the Bellefonte Fencibles made it the occasion of a special parade. Though the turn out was small, the company presented a r eepectable appearance. The Brass Band paraded, for the first time, with their new Instruments. After parade the company took up somo items of business, the most important of which, was the subject of offer ing their services to Gov. Curtin to aid in defending Washington City against the threatened attack of Southern rebels, and to aid in enforcing the laws of the land. Lieut, Beaver opened the subject by stating that he bad personally conferred with Gov. Curtin, who expressed his desire that the Fencibles should do so. A motion was made that a Committie should be appointed to draft a preamble -to that effect. The motion carried unanimously, anu the following gentlemen were appointed. Lieut. Jas. A. Beaver, En sign J. 11. Stover, and Alaj. A. B. Snyder. The Committee retired for a short time, and returneu with the following preamble, which having been read, was adopted without a dissenting voiae. ''ln view of the present distracted condi tion of national aff iirs, and under a firm con viction of the necessity uf enforcing all laws enacted in conformity to the Constitution, of protecting the Constitution, and maintaining the union of the States which now exists, we, whose names are hereunto annexed, do hereby solemnly bind ourselves, each to the other, by the duty which we owe to our com mon country, and by our individual honor, to hold ourselves in readiness to march at any lime in ol edience to the requisition of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, made for that purpose. After the adoption of tho preamble, the Band struck up " Ilail Columbia." Tho soul stirring notes of this glorious old air, awa kened the patriotism in every heart, and twenty-two of Centre County's sons plaeed their signatures to the document, thus signi fying their willingness to go at a moments warning to fight for the maintenance of the Constitution and the Union. The book is in the hands of Ensign Stover, at whose ofsce an opportunity will 'be given to any one who may wish to sign. The fol lowing are the names uf those who signed at the first meeting. C. Strickland, J. 11. Stover, Jno. A. Badg ers, Monroe Armor. W. L. Raphiie, Geo. A. Bayard, Sum. Nichanls, David Barlot, A. B. Snyder, VV. P. Wilson. J. B. Mitchell. Jas. A. Beaver, Henry 11. Montgomery, Harvey S. Lingle, Chftrlrs R. Bullock, Jeremiah O'Leary, Henry H. S'oue, W. W. Montgom ery, David K. l'ate, Charles 11. Hale. R. A. Cassidy, Jas. F. Riddle. The next item of business was to determine whether or not the company should go to Ilarrisburg, on the occasion of the Inaugura ion of Gov. Gurtin. A Committee was ap pointed to ascertain how many were willing to go. the Committee to report at a meeting on the following evening. Gen. Jona. Wolf. We bavi been patiently waiting for Gen. Wolf to take some definite action with this Brig-.de, in reference to the difficulties that now disturb <u- pcc\ We would like to see Centre County plaut herself firmly on the side of the Union. bhe is deadly opposed to treason ar.d rebellion ; let her then be placed fairly on the record Come General, order the Companies under your command to be in readiness to march at a moments warning.

We are told that a fight oc curred in our County jail the other day, be tween two prisoners, Beuner and McA'.hat tan. JlcA'hnttan being the weaker of the two, received tho worst of the bnrguin. Be ing highly iacerised'at his defeat, he imn diately left the premises, b,t scaling the wall.
