THE JOUMAI,
AFFAIRS AT I10.ME.
Clearfield Boroioh. Strolling about town
a lew days since, we incidentally commenced
counting the number of stores, shops. &.c,
and found that there were eight dry goods
stores, one drug store, two book and stition-,
ery stores, five tailoring establishments, five
boot and shoe shops, three saddle and harness
shops, three cabinet and chair-making estab
lishments, one foundry, four wagon-makers'
shops, two printing offices, one crockery, one
tin-ware manufactory and stove depot, four
blacksmith's shops, one clock and watch-maker,
one Hvcry stable, and three hotels. There
may be some inoTe establishments which we
tailed to observe. We have residing in the
town two preachers, though there are five chur
ches here, four physicians, one dentist, and
nine lawyers in active practice. We know of
no way in which these several branches of
industry can be made to extend their business
operations more readily than by informing the
public at large of what is done, and manufac
tured, and where. And how can this be done
more easily than by a system of liberal adver
tising? A newspaper is the medium which
has conducted many a man to fortune, and
many a worthy fellow has failed by neglecting
to make use of this convenient and economi
cal vehicle of carrying himself into notoriety.
Have we as Excise among us ? This query
suggested itself to us by reading accounts of
a large number of fires which have occurred
recently in different places, and by which an
immense amount of property has been destroy
ed. We believe there is no engine, or any
other kind of apparatus in our town, by means
of which a fir could be extinguished. The
large number of wooden buildings here
would facilitate the destruction of a large por
tion of the town, bhould a fire break out on a
stormy day. The necessity of having a good
engine must, therefore, be apparent to every
iroperty holder and business man in the place.
What shall be done in the matter i Will we
da without an engine, and. by so doing leave
thotown as food for the devouring element
whenever it may happen to burst forth ? Or
thai we have an engine and other fire extin
guishing apparatus among us soon 1 We shall
see 1 '
AbaoTYPES. The attention of the citizens
of CuVvensville and vicinity is directed to the

of being supplied regularly with beef. For
this purpose, our townsmen, Messrs. Clark
Wilson and David Etzwciler, have purchased
a supply of beef cattle, and have erected a
temporary building on the Market lot, where
they will sell out their meat. This arrange
ment will certainly be a great accommodation.
DKNTurnr. We call the attention of the
citizens of Philipsburg and neighborhood to
the card of Dr. A. M. Hills, who contemplates
spending next week in that place, during
which time all who wish to have anv opera

Look Oct! Judge Sniyser, of the Mont
gomery county circuit, decided recently that,
unacr tne new license law, "by the 10th sec
tion, the Bond given by the license is totally
forfeited, upon a conviction had for any viola
tion of the provisions of this act, or of any
other act for the observance of which said
bond is conditioned. This forleiture extends
not only to the fine and costs, but to the full
and entire amount of the penalty of the bond
and this is a feature to which we desire es
pecially to dnw the attention of the parties,
and especially 0f the sureties."

the Italian question still continues. The Brit
ish Ministry has agatn triumphed over the op
position on a motion of censure for the aban-
ilnr.mpnt nf thi wriratim law touching neu
trals in the late treaty of peace. Nothing de
cisive has transpired in relation to the Sound
Dues. The Russian successes in Circassia are
confirmed. The Liverpool cotton market had
been easiex, with a slight decline iu lower
grades. Breadstuff were a shade lower than
previous quotations. Provisions were weak,
with moderate sales. The money market was
easier, and Consuls unchanged. .
The National "American" Council in New
York, after an animated debate on Wednesday,
as to the propriety of abolishing secresy in
their meeting, ultimately decided it in the af
firmative, by a large majority. Speeches were
made by Hon. John M. Botts, lion. Humphrey
Marshall, Hon. Thomas A. Jenks'of Rhode Is
land, Hon. Bayard Clark, of New York, Mr.
Saunders and others. There was a discussion
on a resolution by a Massachusetts delegate,
to the effect that no difference of opinion ou
the subject of the Presidential nomination al
ready made should exclude a delegate from a
scat in the Convention. No decision was had
on the resolution, further than referring it to
a Committee. The Committee on Resolutions
reported one using very strong terms in de
nunciation of the Brooks and Sumner outrage.
In the debate upon the above resolution, all of
the Southern members who spoke, including
John M. Botts, Mr. Alexander, of Baltimore,
and others, condemned the outrage upon Sum
ner", but opposed the passage of the original
resolution. Messrs. Goodwin, Leslie, Brittain
and Buckingham of New York condemned it
in strong terms, and favored the resolution.
The resolution being modified, on the sugges
tion of Mr. Botts, was finally adopted. New
officers for the ansning year were ballotted for.
Mr. E. C. Bartlett, of Ky.,was re-elected Pre
sident of the National Council ; Mr. L'rastus
Brooks, elected Vice President ; Mi. Deshler,
of Md., re-elected Corresponding Secretary;
Mr. Crane, of Ohio, Treasurer ; Mr. Stephens,
Recording Secretary, and Mr. Goodwin, of X.
York, Chaplain.

Remedies for Scrofula. Mr. Hcnrv Judd. of
Detroit, Michigan, was in a most alarming
state of health, he had been a great sufferer
from scrofula for a number of years, and final
ly all parts of his body broke out into sores.
rendering him an object of horror to every
one, he tried some of the most reputed reme
dies known, but they did not touch his com
plaint, and in the greatest alarm, he consulted
a friend as to what course he ought to adopt,
when Holloway's Ointment and Pills were re
commended, which he commenced using, and
by persevering with these remedies for a short
time, he was perfectly cured, after every other
remedy had failed.

J. A. RHODES, Esi : Dear Sir As I took your
medicine to sell on consignment. ,:no cure no pay."
I take pleasure in stating its effects as reported l
mo by three brothers who live in this place, and
their testimony is a fair tpcciuicn cf all I have re
ceived :
W. S. Conklin told rae -I had taken nino bot
ties of Christie's Apruo R.ilsa u, and continually run
down while u.hi it until -my lunjrs and liver wer
Congested to that degreo that blood discharged
from" mv mouth and bowels, so that all thought it
imnossible for me to live throush another chill.
The doctors too did all they oould for me, but thot
I must die. Nothing did mcany good until I got
Rhode's Fever mid Ague Cnrc, which at Qnce re
lieved me f the distress ana nausea at my stomach
and pain in my head and bowels, and produced a
permanent cure 111 a snort lime.
" H. M. Coiiklin Kavs : ' I had been taking medi
cine of as sood a doctor as wa hayain but county.
wi.hout any g.,oTresuU. from 2.ith August to I7t:,

S. M. Conklin was not here, but both the other
brothers say his case was the samo as II M ' I
