Of the many sudden deaths and fatal accidents we have been called upon to narrate in a number of years past, that which resulted in the death of young Charlie Jackson, near Wheeler's Indian run mill, Tuesday afternoon, ranks among the most sudden, terrible and sickening of them all. Immediately after the noonday meal, and before he had lifted an implement to do a stroke of work, young Jackson walked out on a pile of logs as they lay on skids, banned up ready to be rolled into the stream, where he and the other men had been busy all the forenoon "breaking in" the piles. As he stepped on a large poplar logit rolled, throwing the un fortunate young man on his buck the log passing over him. Raising in u eittiug posture, as a second log fol lowed In the wake of the first, his head was crushed to a jelly between the two, while yet another passed over the first two. Instantly unconscious, he suffered no pain, although the eyes protruded from their sockets, and the brains oozed out on the merciless tim ber, yet the vital spark flickered faintly for a half hour, when the darkness of death stilled forever the but a few moments ago bounding pulse, and joyous heart beat. Another man followed young Jackson but a step or two behind, and was saved from a similar fate, but by a hair's breadth, as it were. But a moment elapsed until the men at the mill, but a few rods away, were informed of the fact, and hastily nailing together a few boards to act as a temporary stretcher, they carried the body into the mill. Andrew Jackson, the father of the young man, was on the ground before the dying boy was removed from the fatal pile, and his feelings of anguish can never be realized by those who have never been similarly bereaved. Charlie Jackson was about twenty -one years of age, an industrious, peaceable, and well-behaved young man, well liked by his associates, and his sudden taking off will long be sorrowfully remembered by all those who were ac quainted with him, while the sympa thy of the community is with his bereaved parents, brothers and sisters. After a sermon by Rev. H. V. Talbot at the M. E. Church, which was largely attended, the remains were taken to the new cemetery, and laid to rot . Personal Notes. E. Dill was In town on B Tues- day.'

Mr. James Patrick, with a number j of others, was engaged in pulling a raft off the gravel bed at the Burnside bridge on Tuesdoy, the 1st Inst , when, from some unknown cause, he fell upon the stones of the abutment speechless.. Ho was at once carried to the residence of his son, C. R. Patrick, where he expired In less than ten minutes after his fall. Medical aid was. at once summoned, but he was dead before the doctor arrived. Mr. Patrick was borne in Lancaster Co, Pa., December 14th, 1807 and died April 1st, 1870, aged 71 years 8 months and 17 days. He came to Clearfield county in 1841, and since that time has by his labors largely contributed to the improvement of our county. He was an active member of the Evangel ical Association, and lived the life of an exemplary christian. He leaves a wife, three sous, five daughters, and thirty grand children, who mourn his death. His remains were Interred in the Cemetery at Cherry Tree. Those in bereavement have the sympathy of the entire community. Clearfield Re publican. Last Monday, on information made by Win. Servey of South Brook ville, thirteen persons, male and fe male, were brought before 'Squire Craig for a hearing having been ar lirrestod for disturbing religious meet ings at the Memorial Evangelical church. For the past six months, as was stated by one of the witnesses, their conduct while in attendance ut church and prayer meeting was unbe coming and indecent, and not until they were compelled to do so did the members resort to law in order to maintain good behavior. They were put under $100 bail for their appear ance at court, Two or three of the same parties were arrested for the same offense about three or four months since, but were fortunate enough to have the matter settled before the 'Squire. His Honor, Judge Jcuks, in justice to the people and having due regard for the law, generally handles this kind of offenders without gloves, and if persons cannot behave them selves while attending Divine worship, he has the power to send them where their ill-manners and indecent actions harm no one. Urookvitle Democrat. Many business men may have for gotten the penalty affixed by law to the selling of any barrel or package containing or having contained petro leum oil without first removing tlie brand of the inspector. The line in such case is three hundred dollars for each violation of the law. One-half the fine goes to the informer. In order to call the attention more directly to the subject, it is stated that men in other comities have made it a business to purchase of merchants and dealers the empty barrels that had contained refined oil and each case where the brand had not been removed they en ter suit foi the recovery of the penalty. It is possible that some of our business men in this county may be subjected to much annoyance and have also to pay the penalty unless they exercise due care in removing the brand of the inspector from each oil barrel they have used. The penalty is large enough to attract the attention of men who will spare no effort, to make it, and there may be such in this county We take from the Pamphlet Laws of 1874, the section of the act then passed, relating to the subject : "Suction 11. Any person or persons w no snail sou or cause to ho sold any barrel or package or who shall refill tlie same without nrst removing the brand of the inspector shall be li able to a fine of three hundred dollars for every barrel sold, or deliv ered or refilled; said tines shall be re covcrable as other fines of like char acter are recoverable by law; and one half shall go to the informer, and one half to the school district in which the offence was committed." The bureau of the Quartermaster General s department having charge of tlie national cemeteries, under Captain A. r. JCockwcll, lias jusl issued an important notice in wh the Grand Army of the Republic and the private menus ot our dead soldiers are interested. It will he generally remembered that iu 1S73 Congress passed a law providing for the erection of durable head stones over tlie graves of soldiers of the regular and volunteer forces ot the United Hates whose re mains are interred in tlie national mili tary cemeteries. This law bus been curried out, and the graves of the na tion's dead in these cemeteries are now permanently marked. At tlie instance of the war department, Congress liui recently authorized tlie erection of similar headstones over the graves of the Union soldiers who are buried in private anil village cemeteries. This will be done as soon as the necessary arrangements can be made. In the meantime tlie Quartermaster General, at Washington, Is endeavoring to cot lect the necessary information as to where these headstones are required. All persons having any knowledge of the burial place of soldiers iu private cemeteries, whoso graves are not marked, are requested to communicate the fact to the Quartermaster General, and give tlie regiment, company and dateof deatli of the deceased, if known, and similarinformation Is desired from parties having charge or such ceme teries. Of course it is not intended to furnish head stones lor graves over which monuments have already been erected bv retutives or frieuds of the doeen-sed. but as there are doubtless inanv unmarked craves of the men who fell in the defence of their coun try's flag, it is to be hoped that there will Iih it vigorous effort made to se cure for them the advantage of this provision of the last Congress.

Mr. Rogerson, the son of a gentle man of large fortuue In England, after receiving an excellent education, was sent abroad to make the grand tour. In this journey, young Rogerson at tended to nothing but the various modes of cookery, and tlie methods of eating and drinking luxuriously. Be fore his return his father died, when he intered into the possession of a very large fortune. He was now able to look over his notes of epicurism, and to discover where the most exquisite dishes aud best cooks were to be pro cured. Ho had no servants but men cooks. Footman, butler, housekeeper, coachman, uud grooms were all cooks. Among those more professionally bo were one from Florence, another from Siennu, and another from Vlterbo, who was employed for the special pur pose of dressing one particular dish only, the " doccapicaute " of Florence. He had also a German cook for dress ing the livers of turkeys, and the rest were ail French. Mr. Rogersou had a messenger constantly traveling be tween Brittany and London, to bring him the eggs of a certain sort of plo ver near St. Malo; and a single dinner, consisting of two dishes only, some times cost him upward of fiftygulneas. Ho counted the minutes between his meals, and was wholly absorbed in de vising means to indulge his appetite. In the course of nine years he found his table dreadfully abridged by the ruin of his fortuue, and be was verg ing fast to poverty. When he had spent a fortune of one hundred and fifty thousand pounds, and was totally ruiued, a friend gave him a guinea to keep him from starving; but a short time after he was found dressing an ortolan for himself. A few days later he died by his own hands. Fine quality syrup 60 cents, per gallon at Morgester's. Peanuts 10 cents per quart at Mor , jester's.
