The Committee on Resolutions then report
- ed the following preamble and resolutions
.which were unanimously adoDted :
Whereas, a number of companies have been in
corporated by the Legislature who have erected
booms in the Susquehanna river; and whereas we
have just learned that a bill has been reported for
the incorporation of a similar company to erect a
boom at Jersey Shore, and that other boom compa
nies are projected,
" Be it resolved. That the erection of booms In the
Ecaauehanna river impedes the navigation there
of, causes detention and loss to our citizens, and if
the 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 of
their means of support.
Resolved. That the booms now constructed have
10 impeded the descending navigation, that our
citizens have been seriously injured, and that some
legislation is necessary to protect the interests of
those who os our great highway ia carrying our
principal product to market.
Resolved, That we are opposed to any further
obstructions beirg placed in the rivor, and there
fore to the incorporation of more boom companies
as no been cs.a be constructed without injuring
the descending navigation
Resolve'. That we will memorialise the Legis
lature upon the subject, and request our Senator,
Jlrnry Souther, Esq., and our Representative, Seth
to construe? TSbodfs Wcrii hoor.ble means to pre-
to have such a law passed in relation to booms now
in existence as may protect our interests.
Resolved, That the act of May 8th, 1855, entitled
"A supplement to an aot to regulate the taking np
or lumoer, &c., was uncalled lor, is oppressive
,1 ii . . , . i

Eastbe Day. It ia stated that the Council
of Nice, in the year 325, laid down the rule,
that Easter Sunday should be the first Sunday
after full moon, which happens upon, or next
after the 21st of March. "Then the Fast of
Lent Is continued for forty days before Easter
Sunday, and the first of those days is called
led Ash Wednesday, from a custom of sprink
.Hng ashes on that day. Ehrove or Shrive
Trtesday Is the day preceeding, on which the
folks shrive or. confess to the priest, and are
allowed to make merry afterwards,from whence
carne the custom of cock-fighting, ic, on that
day. Shrovo Tuesday is tho next Tuesday af
ter the first change of tho moon ia February,
The earliest day on which Easter can fall is
.tho 22d of March, and the latest the 25th of
April. Suppose the full moon to occur on the
24th of March, the first full moon after the
21st of March would cot occur until the 13th
.of April. In 1853, Easter jvill fall on the 21th
of April. In 1845, it fell on the 2.'ld of March,
the samo as this year. In 1818, ft fell on the
irllest possible day, the 22d of March."
- Exhibition. The semi-annual exhibition of
the Clearfield Institute ctme ofT at the Town
Hall in this borough, on last Friday evening.
At an early hour, tho house was crowded to
overflowing, and it was with much difficulty
that all the ladies, present could be seated.
. Tho Hall was well lighted, and beautifully dec
orated with evergreens. Wo were much pleas
ed with the performances. Good taste was
Aaplayed in the manner of their arrangement,
and the performers, male and female, acquitted
themselves in a manner highly creditable to
themselves, and flattering to the principal of
the institution. It was cause of gratification
to teo the interest that Is taken la educational
aflalrs, 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.
This Shoes are great promoters of consump
tion and like fashionable ailings in human be
ings. It is surprising that ladies, possessing
the good sense which all must accede to them,
should permit themselves to indulge in the nse
of thin-oled, cloth shoes, in weather such as
we have now. Uardly a day passes that we 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 so many of our American ladies are
such delicate creatures. A couple years since,
A very Umablt English lady, In a eonversa-
tlon on this subject, reniarKea to ns mat uCr
countrywomen paid the greatest attention to
keeping their feet well protected and in con
firmation exhibited a pair of shoes, wnicu to
us seemed welt calculated for that purpose,
being cork-soled and supplied with good-sized
heel-taps and yet they were rery neat. It
seems as if a false pride the vanity of dis
playing little, contracted feet (a wag sug
gests understanding, as being a better term,
but we object to its use on this occasion,) pre
vents many of our ladie3 from wearing an ar
ticle ot shos that would in a great degree
protect them from colds and coughs, and that
almost inseparable concomitant, consumption.
Firk im Beccaria. On Monday the 10th
instant, at about 12 o'clock M.,tbe large dwel
ling and store house of Mr. John Swan, on
Muddy run, in Beccaria township, was con
sumed by fire, together with bis entire stock
of goods, furniture and whatsoever the build
ing contained. The family, we understand,
were taking their dinner in an apartment at
one end of the house, when the fire broke out
at the other, and before it was discovered had
got under such headway that nothing could be
rescued from the devouring element. It is
supposed that tho fire originated at the place
where the stove-pipe passed thiough the sec
ond story floor, which was laid with loose
boards. The loss of Mr. Swan will doubtless
ly be from $3,000 to $5,000.
The Algeeixe Law. On the 13th Inst, Mr
Souther presented a petition to the Senate for
the rerjeal of the following section of the Act
known here as the "Algerine Law :"
"Sec. 1. That if the parties are unable to
flp-ree unon tho 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
grant hrivinsr charge of the same, shall be lia
ble to arrest on a capiat ad respondedum, from
which he bhall not be discharged until he or
thev shall eive bail absolute before the justice
who shall uue such capias, to pay to the per
son or uersons takiu ud such lumber, logs,
hinrles. bolts or timber, the judgment that
may be recovered, with costs of suit :"
Fire. On Tuesday of last week the Saw
mill.of Howard Merreil, in Bradford township,
was destroyed by fire. The fire, it is supposed,
originated In tho carpenter shop attached to
the mill. The loss of Mr. Merreil will be most
seriously felt in his inability to saw up the
large number of logs which he has on band,
though by the destruction of the mill he will
lose not lass than $500.
New Post Ojfices. A new post office has
been established at Moore's Mill, in L'uion
township, styled "Rockton" W. F. Johnson,
postmaster. Another new office has also been
tAUwJiod-atJegQnte's Mill, in Girard town-
Left. Win. II. Eloom, who was committed
to jail on a capias for breach of promise of
manage, loott raiuer unceremonious . leave
last night. The jail wall was scaled by means
of a ladder, the lock of the outer door taken
off, and the prisoner thus made his escape.
Me. Vacguas, of Sandy mil, who, with his
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 bad been stopped by a temporary
obstruction. Mr. Yauglian, with other pas
sengers, got out to see what occasioned the
delay, walked a few rods ahead of the train,
and after learning the causa of the detention,
fell dead upon the track.
"Union for the Sake of the Union."
A meeting of those opposed to the present
National Administration will be held on Sat
urday the 22d inst., for the purpose of select
ing delegates for the Union Convention to be
held at Ilarrisburg on the 2Gth. Attendance
