The Committco on Resolutions then report
d the following preamble and resolutions
which were unanimously adopted :
v Whekeas, a number of companies have been in
corporated by the Legislature who. have erected
booms in the Susquehanna river ; and whereas we
-hare just learned that a bill has been reported for
i the incorporation of a similar company to erect a
.boom at Jersey Shore, and that other Loom compa
nies are projected,
. Be it resolved, Thst tho erection of booms in the
Susquehanna river impedes the navigation there
of, cause detention mid los3 to our citizens, and if
ihe system is continued of incorporating boom
companies it must eventually destroy the timber
and board business of Clearfield, county, render
valueless our forests and deprive our citizens ef
their means of support. . - -
Resolved. That tie booms now constructed have
so impeded the descending navigation, that our
itizens have been seriously injured, and that soma
legislation is necessary to protect tie interests cf
those who use our great highway in carrying oar
principal product to market.
IZtsolved, That we are opposed to any further
obstructions being placed in the river, and there
fore to the Incorporation of more boom companies,
as no boom can be constructed without injurin"
tho descend ing navigation j
Resolved. That we will memorializa the Lb-5j- i
lature upon the subject, and request our Senator,
Henry Souther, Esq., and our Representative. Seth
A. Lackus. Esq., to use all honorable means to pre
vent the incorporation of companies empowered
to construct booms on the Susquehanna river, and
to have such adaw passed in relation to boom3 now
,ia existence as may protect our interests.

Easter Dat. It is stated that the Council
of Nice, in the year 325, laid down the rule,
that Easter Sunday should be the Crst Sunday
after full moon, which happens upon, or next
after the 21st of March. "Then the Fast of
Lent id continued for forty days before Easter
Sunday, and the first of thoso days is called
led Ash Wednesday, from a custom of sprink
ling ashes on that day. Ehrove or Shrive
Tuesday is the day preceeding, on which the
Xolks shrive or confess to the priest, and are
allowed to make rierry afterwsr JSjfrcm wher.es
came the custom of cock-fighting, La., on that
day. Shrovo Tuesday i3 the next Tuesday af
ter the first change of the moon in February.
The earliest day on which Easter can fall is
the 22d of March, and the latest tho 2-3th cf
April. Suppose the full moon to occur on the
24th of March, the first full moon after tho
21st of March would not Occur until the ISth
.of April. In 1859, Easter will fall on the 21lh
of April. In 181-3, it fell on the 23d of March,
Ihe same as this year. In 1813, it felt on the
arliest possible day, the 22d of March."
Exhibition. The semi-annual exhibition of
the Clearfield Institute carno olf at tho Town
Hall in this borough, on last Friday evening.
At an earlv hour, tho houso was crevded to
overflowing, and it was with much difficulty
that all the ladies present could be seated.
The Hall was well lighted, and beautifully dec
.orated with evergreens. We were much pleas
ed with the performances. Good taste was
aplaycd In the manner of their arrangement,
and the performers, male and female, acquitted
themselves ia a manner highly creditable to
themselves, and flattering to the principal of
the institution. It was cause of gratification
.to Bee the interest that is taken In educational
affairs, as was evinced in the large crowd of
spectators present ; and it must have been en
couraging to both teacher and pupils to wit
ness such a manifestation of interest. The
Clearfield Brass Band was in attendance and
enlivened the performances with a number of
spirited and well-played tunes. .',
r This Shoes are great promoters of consnmp
tion and like fashionable ailings in bunvan be
ings. , It Is surprising that ladies, possessing
the good flense which all must accede to them,
should permit themselves to indulge in tho use
of thin-soled, cloth shoes, in weather such as
we have now. TJardly a, day passes that wd do
not observe females walking along our streets
In shoes that cannot possibly protect their feet
from the moisture. It Is little wonder, there
fore, that o many of our American ladies are
ach delicate creatures. A couple years ilncc
ji ?ry tstisjabl English jady,' in a convem
tion on thi3 subject, remarked to us that her
countrywomen . paid the greatest attention to
Keeping their feet well protected and in con
urination exhibited a pair of shoes, which to
ns seemed well calculated for that purpose
being cork-soled and supplied with good-sized
heel-taps and yet they were very neat. It
seems as if a false pride the vanity oi dis
Frying iuiie, contracieu leet (a wag sug
gests U7iderslandiug, as being a better term
but we object to its use on this occasion,) pre
vents many of our ladies from wearing an ar
ticle of shoes that would in a great degree
protect them from colds and coughs, and that
almost inseparable concomitant, consumption.
Finn is Beccaeia. On Monday the 10th
instaut, at about 12 o'clock M.,the large dwel
ling and store house of Mr. John Swan, on
Muddy run, in Beccaria township, was con
sumed by fire, together with his entire stock
of goods, furniture and whatsoever tire build
ing contained. Tho family, wo understand,
were taking their dinner in an apartment at
one end of the house, when the fire b-oke out
at the other, and before it was discovered had
got under such headway that nothing could be
rescued from the devouring clement. It is
supposed that the Ore originated at the place
where the stove-pipe passed thiough the sec
ond story floor, which was laid with loose
boards. Tho loss of Mr. Swan will doubtless
ly be from $3,000 to $5,000.
The: AtcERixs Law. On the lSlh inst, Mr.
Souther presented a petition to the Senate for
the repeal of the following section of tho Act
known here 33 tho "Algerino Law
"Snc. 1. That if the parties are unable to
agree upon the amount to be paid, the lumber,
logs, shingles, bolts or timber, shall be deliv
ered to the owner, but in such case the owner
or owners of the said lumber, or his or their
agent having charge of the same," shall be lia
ble to arrest on a capias ad rcspondedum, from
which he bhall not be discharged until he or
they shall give bail absolute before the justice
wr.o shall is.ue such capias, to pay to the per
son or persons taking up such lumber, logs,
shingles, bolts or timber, the judgment that
may be recovered, with costs of suit
FtRE. On Tuesday of last week the Saw
mill of Howard Merrell, in Bradford township,
wa3 destroyed by fire. The lire, it is supposed,
originated- in tho carpenter shop attached to
the mill. Tho loss of Mr. Merrell will be most
seriously felt in his inability to saw up the
large number of legs which he has on hand.
though by the destruction cf the mill he will
lose not'loss than $500.
New Post Opices. A new post odce has
been established at Moore3 Mili. in Union
township, styled "Rockton" XV. F.Johnson,
postmaster.' Another new office has also been
established at Leeconto's Mill, in Girard town
ship, and A. Leeconte appointed postmaster.

Bloom, who was committed
rerj.trt-Ti. -
marriage, took rather unceremonious leave
last night. The jail wall was scaled by means
of a ladder, the lock of tho outer door taken
c3, and tho prisoner thus made his escape.
Ma. Vaiguan, of Sandy Hill, who, with bis
wife, went to attend the funeral of her father
near Utica, fell dead upon the track of the
Central Road near Amsterdam, on the 4th.
The train had been stopped by a temporary
obstruction. Mr. Vaughan, with other pas
sanser3 got out to see what occasioned the
delay, walked a lew rod3 ahead of the train,
and after learning the cause of the detention,
fell dead upon the track.
"Union for tho Sake of tho Union."
