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.

Military Preparations.
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

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.

whether or not the company should go to

pointed to ascertain how many were willing
to go. the Committee to report at a meeting
