Bad practice assembling in an oyster cellar on

Head them the new advertisements. If you

going on. .
Bound to do it. Mossop says he will sell the
cheapest goods in the County, in spite ot all oppo
sition, and we have no doubt be II do it. Give

Prodigtous.' The Knickerbocker says that in
the licighborhood of Albany the potatoes are so
large that the dealers paint them green, and sell
ihtm for water mellons.
A faei Young ladies who are accustomed to
fki.d newspapers always possess wiui.iug wavi
amiable dispositions ia variably make good wives
nd select good husbands.
Soft the roads, land men who pause ia the
'even tenor of their way" to reply to tho barking
of a puppy, or the ravings of a "C.itholic bully."
Uoth are equally beneath contempt.
fitrange that our Borough Fathers, do not tike
erne action ia regard to the very bad condition of
many of the side-walks. Winter is fist approach
ing, and the pavements ought to be fixed.
Thanksgiving Day. We have been asked sev
ere? times what day Gov Pollock has fixed for
Thanksgiving Day. It is Thursd y the 2-lnd inst..
or one week from to-morrow. We hope it will be
observed
Suanng accounts. A worthy Doacon in Massa
chusetts, having lot a cow by a strokeof lightning,
worked on Sunday until he had earned enough to
.cover his loss ! That was 'squaring accounts' with
a vengaceo.
One of the Turnpilis. The Pittsburg Dispatch
says, the Steuben ville Turnpike, is a disgrace to
.clvilizatian. If it can beat, the 4 turnpike," be
tween this and Curwensville we think it would be
a disgrace to barbarism.
Zinc pens. We are writing with a Zinc pen,
which we have received from our friond Tommy
Robins, and can most heartily commend it as an
excellent invention. It will not corrode, and con
sequently does not spoil the ink.
Bad manners to stand about the door of a
church gating upon the congregation coming out,
and obstructing the way. No one pretending to
be a gentleman would be guilty, of such conduit.
It U the height of !l breeding.
Cant le beat the stable we built last week, with
tho assistance of ourSr. Devil. It 'takesdown' all
the earpenters. Architects and builders in this vi
cinity. It's bound to take tfa premium at the
first Clearfield Agricultural fair.
Fixed at last the pavement of our friend up
street, and if he has kept us waiting a long time
for it, we are well repaid in the excellent board
walk he has laid one of the best in town. We
hope some others will 'follow suit.
Important arrival at Tommy Bobbins' Depot
for the head and 'atom-jack. lie has a splendid
Assortmentof beautiful books, an unsurpassed stock
of elegant eonfeetionaries, and a lot of superb to
bacce and cigars Give him a call.
" llesult of Gambling. A case has just come to
light at Hartford, Conn., showing that a young m er
chant has lost not only everything be was worth
ty gambling, but has forged notes to the amount
of thousands, with the names of his father and father-in-law
as endorsers.
Blanks. We have on hand a supply of blank
judgement notes with waiver of exemption from
levy and sale under the Act of April 1819. Also a
apply of blank Declarations apd Confessions, for
'Attornies; Justices Blanks, Constables Sales 4c.
Net arrangements Tersona attending the
Methodist Church in this placo will observe that
the arrcngement that existsd heretofore, under
which the ladies entered at the left hand door,
and the gentleman at the right, has been altered.
Ladies and gentlemen now enter at both doors the
ladies take the left side of the aisle, and the gen
tlemen the right. The arrangement is a good one.
A lesson. We sincerely hope that the accident,
which occurred last week will be a sufficient warn
ing to induce those of our citizens who are in the
habit of cutting wood in the street, to remove
their wood-yards to a safe distance. The borough
officers should take cognizance of the matter, and
compel them to remove the nuisance. It is not
only dangerous, but a disgrace to the borough to
lave the street Tittered ap wit wo4-pile
No 4-prK!? From the Pope. IV r.sons who
doubt, il llnTc indeed lie anv who do doubt,
that the Romish Church claims temporal, as
well as spiritual, allegiance from its disciples
in the United States, would do well to read
the pastoral letter of the ArehLUhops and
Bishops of tho "Province of-13t. Louis," in
council assembled, just issued. That docu
ment explicitly s:iys:
" We maintain the superiority of tin spirt. ual
over the temporal power,. We maintain that the
temporal ruler,is bound to ,oXorm ins enact
ments to tbu Divine law.- -We1 maintain that
the Chuick is the svvreme Judge of all questions
concerning faith and morals, and that, in the
determination of such questions, the Roman
Pontiff, as Vicar ot Jesus Christ, constitutes a
tribunal from vhich there is no appeal; and to
whose award all the children ot tne cnuren
must yield obedi-.-uce."
After this authoritative and olhcial an
nouncement, let us have no more finedrawn
distinctions between spiritual allegiance and
temporal allegiance. e see here that both
are binding alike. Xew York Express.
Clayton axd Bllwer Treaty. Letter wri
ters from Washington State that important
despatches from London have been received.
Mr. Buchanan transmits the final answer of
the British Government on the Central Amer
ican negotiation. Our ultimatum is rejected
and correspondence is closed. Both govern
ments are released Irom the LIayton and lui
wer treaty, Great Britain retaining her colo
nies and protectorate, and we withdrawing
from our anti-annexation clause. Assurances,
however of peaceful views are unchanged.

which a patent has been obtained, commends it
self to the attention of Housekeepers and others,
on account of its great simplicity, and the effectu
al manner in which it accomplished a very desi
rable and ueeful object
The cans andjars are constructed with a chan
nel around the mouth, nerr the top. into which
the cover fits loosely. This channel is filled with
a very adhesive cement, prepared for the purpose
and nltnweii to harden. In order to eal the ves
sel hermetically, it is oily ternary ink' it the
cover s'txhtltf. au l press it into p' ree. It may be
opened with as much ease as it is closed, by slight
ly worming the top. The ordinary tin cans, used
for the same purpose for which this is intended,
cannot be closed, as is well known without th nid
of atinnsr; are difficult to open, aud are generally
so much injured m opening as to toe useless ior
future service.
By this simple contrivance, the processor her
mctical sealing is placed conveniently within the
reach of every individual; and fruit, vegetables
and butter (if properly prepared) maybe kept,
with their natural flavor unimpaired, tor an in

These Paints will stand any climate, without

making in time an enamel of Stone, protecting
Wood from decay, and Iron and other metals from
rust and corronion. They differ essentially from
the so-called Mineral Paints of the day. which are
principally Ochres, and Clays, and are entirely
worthless.
SILVER'S Plastic Paints are purely METAL

They are Iciigated finely, mix readily with Lin

Deafness and Ear Diseases Radically Curod.
Dr. Le DM; offers to those suffering; frem
Deafness his INFALLIBLE AURAL REMEDIES,
which haicbeen successful in nearly 3,000 case
of confirmed deafness These remedies comprise
different courses for diseases of the internal, mid
dle and external ear, and have been pronounced ;
by those celebrated auriets. Drs. Cramer, of Ber
lin, Itard, and Delan, of Paris. Curtis. Pilcher and
Yearsly of London, as being the MOST WINDER-
FUL and EFFECTUAL ever applied for disease :
of the internal and middle car. . Dr. LeB., WAR
RANTS A CUKE in every case where the ear il
perfect in formation. He has eighteen certificates
of cures from those who had been DEAF AND"
DUMli, aiid whose hearing is now completely res
tored and are now enabled to learn the language.
The names of 2.700 person who have been cared
by Dr. LelJ., may be seen on application. Pa
tients, by sending a description of the ease, can
have remedies sent to any part of the United
States.
In case of mucus accumulations in the Eusta
chain Tnl c and Tympanum, inflammation of the
mucus membrane, nervous affections, diseases of
the membrane tympani, called -'the drum," or .
when the disease can be traced to the effects of fe
vers or colds, the use of quinine or mercurial
medicines, gatherings in the ears in children. Ac,
this treatment STANDS PREEMINENT. When
the auditory is dry and scaly, with little or no
secretion ; w'hen the deafness is accompanied witn
noise iu ihe ear, like faEing water, chirping of
insects, ringing of bells, rustling of leaves, contin
ual pulsations, and discbarge of matter, or when
in stooping, a sensation is felt as if a rush of blood
to the head had taken place ; when the hearing
is less accute in dull, cloudy weather, or when a
cold has been taken, this method of treating the
disease is in fall Me..
Dr. Dufton is the only Oceulist in the United
States who practices the new painless, and sue
cessful method in treating all the diseases to which
the eye is subject Where every other mean
have failed to afford relief, he asks from such
fair and impartial trial.
TESTIMONY. The undersigned practition
ers in meuiciiie in the city of New York, bavins:
had frequent occasion to witness the practice of
Drs. LeBrunn and Dufton, in diseases of the Ear
and Eye, laying aside all professional jealousy.
Ireely a-Jmrt, that the course pursued by them in
treating diseases of these delicate organs, from the
unpjr j.'ir'fd success attending it, is well worth the
attention of our professional brethren throughout
the United Statrs. feeling assured as we do. that
Aural Surgery has not met with that attention
which its importance demands. Their system of
treating diseases of the middle and internal Ear,
by M'dic d Vapors.'' particularly in cbronio or
complicate J esses, forms a new era in the practio
of Aural Surgery; such cases yielding in almost
rvry instance M this nenr a i powerful arent.
This practice fills up a void which has long bee
felt by the general practitioner, enabling bim U
rope surcestfnlly unih every eie where perfect
formation exists.
In diseases of the Eye, they seldom reqnir W
resort ty the operation.
As skillful Aurisis and Oculists, enthusiastically
devoted to their profession, we cordially recom
