; By Divine permission, the Rev. Mr. Thorop
nna will preach in the Presbyterian Church in
Curwensville, on next Sabbath, at 11 J o'clock.
The North Western Conference of the Lu
theran ChurchjWill meet inClearfield,onThurs
day evening next. Business transacted with

brated on Sabbath next. All persons are in
vited to be in attendance.
Dedication The new M. E. Church at Ty
rone City, Blair county, will be dedicated on
the second Sabbath in Decemberbeing the
11th day. One of the Bishops is expected to
preach the Dedicatory sermon. Rev'ds J. A.

;.How to keep Warm ! Go to Mcrrell & Car
ters' and procure one of their excellent stoves
and then make a good fire in it, of course.
. IIow to Tell ! If you arc desirous of as
certaining the best place to buy good articles
t low prices, consult the columns of the Jour
nal and see who advertises. Business men
who are liberal, always give notice of what
they have, and when they have it for sale.
Buyers should remember this.
Im:ortaxt to Evertbodt! When cash is
scarce, as it now is, it is a matter of impor
tance to everybody to buy as much and as good
and serviceable articles as possible for their
money. By referring to our advertising col
umns it will be seen that Wm. F. Irwin has re
ceived his stock of Fall and Winter goods,
which he will dispose of at the most reasona
ble prices.
Up-Set. On last Thursday, as the stage
from Tyrone to this place was within about a
mile of Philipsburg, a bolt sprung loose, which
caused the top to swing over and upset the
coach. A gentleman named Carney, from O
hio, had his leg broken above the knee ; the
driver received some severe injuries, and ano
ther passenger was somewhat bruised no oth
ers injured, we believe. We understand that
Mr. Carney is doing as well as might bo ex
pected.
Repairing the Court IIofse. The Grand
Jury last week recommended, we believe, that
some 'repairs be made to our Court House,
suggesting that the rear of the building be torn
out and an extension be built tip. We don't
know with what favor such a proposition will
be received by the citizens of Clearfield coun
ty, but it seems to us, if anything is to be
done, that an entire new Court House should
be erected; for but an indifferent job could at
best bamade by patching besides the expense
incurred in repairing would make a nice item
in putting up a new building.
Lumbermen's Meeting. An adjourned mee-
miu ik. counties, was neia at trie Uonrt liouso,
in this place, on Tuesday evening, 18th inst.,
for the purpose of considering the subject of
log-floating. Judge Leonard, President, in
the chair, and D. W. Moore, Secretary. The
proceedings ot the former meeting, and the
memorial to the Legislature, prepared by the
Executive Committee appointed at the previ
ous meeting, were read. After which addres
ses were delivered by J. Cuttle, Esq., and John
M. Chase ; and after tho transaction of some
further business tho meeting adjourned to
meet at the call of the President.
2ood News ! Tvrone axdClearfield Rail
Road. Last Friday was the day fixed upon by
the officers for tho letting of a portion of the
above road. A largo number of persons were
in Philipsburg at the time indicated. We
have the cheering announcement to make that
Messrs. Brady, Maurcr and Lingel contracted
to grade and make rcsdy for the ballast that
part of the road from the town of Philipsburg
to within three miles of Tyrone city, lor the
snm of $90,000. It seems to U3 that the com
pany are getting the grading done at a very
reasonable rate. At tho same time we trust
that the contractors have such a bargain as will
induce them to push the work with vigor to
an early completion. The making of the Ty
roe and Clearfield Railroad is thus reduced to
a certainty, and too much praise cannot be
bestowed upon the officers and others who
took an active part in having a portion of it
thus early put under contract.

The Democratic party now consists of tho
slave power of the South, allied with the Cath
olics of the North, with just enough of dough
faces thrown in to give a triangular variety to
the mixture.
In Greenup county, Kentucky, Fremont's
vote equals the whole Fillmore majority, the
Republican party having very nearly the "bal
ance of power." The vote stood : Fillmore
8G6, Buchanan 865, Fremont one.
New York. Full returns from the several
counties of New York foot tip as follows :
Fremont 275,353, Buchanan 194,908, Fillmore
124,656. Fremont's majority over Buchanan,
80,445. That will do very well lor one State.
Samuel SwARiwon died at New York on
Friday in the 73d year of his age. ne wasCol
lector at that port under Gen. Jackton,and his
immense defalcation while in office was tho re
sult of his being victimized by designing men.
The three Brothers Wasiibtrxe. Every
one of the three Washburnes is re-elected to
the next Congress. Israel, in Maine, by 5,000 ;
Cadwallader C, in Wisconsin, by 5,000; and
Elilin B-, in Illinois, by 11,551 majority. All
Republicans.
Hon. Stephen A. Douglass was married in
Washington last week to Miss Ada Cctts.
She is 24 3-ears of age. She is a daughter of
JamesMadison Cutts, who is a nephew of the
celebrated Mrs. Madison. Douglas was a wid
ower. One of the Townships. In Benzinger,Elk
Co., Buchanan had 245 vote?, Fremont 1, Fill

one. We should like to see the man that had
the courage to vote against the Locofocos iu

John II. Eaton, formerly of Tennessee, died
at Washington city .on Monday last a week.
He was a member of Gen. Jackson's Cabinet
when tho disruption took place in 1831, on ac
count of some difficult v which occurred anions
the ladies of the other Cabinet officers, they
refusing to associate with Mr. Eaton's wife,
who, before her marriage, was a gay young
widow.
Losses on the Lakes. The disasters on the
Lakes -this season far exceM those of former
years in number and fatality. Tho Chicago
Tribune gives an imperfect list of the totally
lost vessels, making an aggregate of six stea
mers, nine propellers, two tugs, five brigs and
twenty-eight schooners. At a low calculation
two hundred lives have been lost. Several of
the vessels have disappeared and never been
heard from.
Swift Retribution. When they do nab a
scoundrel in England whose crime can be 1c
gaily punished, they make short work of him
About the same time that Huntington, the
great forger, was arrested in New York, a man
named Robson, who had defrauded the Crystal
Palace at Sydenham of jC10,000, was arrested
in England. The City of Washington brought
the intelligence that Robson has been indict
ed, tried, found guilty and sentenced to 20
years' imprisonment. Huntington, on the
contrary, has not yet been indicted.
A Will Case. The Columbia South Caroli
nian states that the celebrated case of Mr. Wil
lis, who took a colored woman to Ohio, freed
her, and bequeathed -to her and her children
(who were also his own) all his property in
South Carolina, has just been decided by
Judge O'Neall, at the late term of the Court
at Barnwell. The jury gave a yerdict against
the validity of the xcill, partly on the ground
that it was procured by fraud and insanity, and
partly because it was opposed tr the policy of
the State, as declared by the act of 1811. It
has been appealed.
Sold Her Niggers. Miss McDuffie, of S.
Carolina, John Van Buren's bride elect, has
sold her niggers at an average price of $700,
preparing herself lor companionship with a
Buchanan Free-Soiler! She need not have
done that, for John is so debauched in politi
cal and moral sentiment, that, despite his old-
time horror of slavery, we believe he would
just as soon raise niggers for the market as
p'gs, and doubtless, in view of the trade he
might drive in this lice,we question if he does
not feel that the lady has compromised his ex
pectant fortune by disposing of her human
stock at so low an average.
IloUoway's Ointment and Pills, an astonish
ing Remedy for Erysipelas. Mr. Henry Turn
er, of Dover, Maine, was afilicted with Erysip
elas, large purple blotches came on his face
and neck, and all parts of bis body, and des
pite of the many remedies he tried, he was not
benefitted. At length ho had recourse tollol-
loway's OiDtment and Pills, and made up his
mind to persevere with these remedies, which
he did. The result was, that in a few weeks
he was perfectly cured, and his general health
wonderfully improved. This case has created
quite a sensation In Maine. J
bond. Verdict for Plff., $727.
i . The Fighting Editor. Mrs. Prewett, adi-
trcss of the Yazoo City (Mississippi) nanner,
writes concerning the fighting editor of that
paper, as follows : "Some misapprehension
seems to exist about our editor, Mr. Smith.
We are constantly receiving business letters
addressed to him. He is only the fighting ed
itor, and has nothing to do whatever with the
money matters of this concern. Challenges
may be addressed to him as heretofore, and
other warlike missiles, insults, denunciations,
&c, &c. Wo have no objections to having
duns included in the category, as we regard
duns as personal, and particularly offensive.
Persons having business of this sort with this
office will please address Mr. Smith, the fight
ing editor."
