THE JOURNAL.
CLEARFIELD, PA., DECEMBER 21, 185G.
St. Andrew's Ciiircii. Subject on Sunday
night, 28th instant : Variety ot religious de
nominations in our country.
W tender the compliments of the season
to our patrons, wishing them all a Merry
Christmas and a Happy New Year.
Rev. Dk. McLeod, on Sunday evening,
w hilst returning from church, slipped on some
ice, and sprained one of his ancles so severely
as to prevent him from walking for sonio days.
, Our Carrier requests us to announce that
V.e will have an excellent Address for New
Years' Day, and that he should bo pleased if
all would be prepared to greet biro, on that oc
casion in a substantial manner.
The Weatheb, during the last few days, has
been very cold, and tho Susquehanna is frozen
over. On Mouday several inches of snow fell.
A little more of the article would make good
sledding and sleighing, for which all are look
ing anxiously.
TraosK & Clearfield Railroad. We have
been informed that the contractors are deter
mined to push the work between Tyrone and
Philipsburg with vigor, and for this purpose
liave already some 200 hands at work on the
line. This looki as if something was to bo
done, and ivc think the company should con
gratulate themselves upon having given the
contract to such spirited and encrgatic men as
Messrs. Brady, Mowrer and Lingo!, to whom
we trust it may prove' a profitable job.
Shooting ix tue Streets. During the last
week we heard on several occasions pistols or
other fire arms discharged in our streets. This
is wrong as well as dangerous. We see by the
Gazette that on the loth a man was killed in
Pittsburg, whilst engaged loading some furni
ture, by a ball from a pistol which had been
shot at a mark. The ball, striking a stone,
glanced and struck the unfortunate man on the
bead, causing death in a short time. We trust,
therefore, that persons will in luturo desist
from shooting within our borough limits.'
Remember the Pook. The . cold winter is
upon us with all its rigors, and as those who
are blessed with a fair share of this world's
goods gather around their cheerful firesides,
they should not only feel grateful to the great
Ruler of tho Universe for the blessings they
enjoy, but they should not be forgetful of the
poor who may be in our midst. Yc are all too
apt to think when wo are comfortable our
selves that all is right we but seldom reflect
that there may be those who are actually want
ing the necessaries of life, who lack the where
withal to keep soul and body together. Such
should be looked after, and the hand of Chari
ty extended to them. A trifle would send a
thrill of lwpc to the heart of a desponding
fellow, lighten his grief, and chec him on his
weary way. While wc can, we should extend
a helping hand ; for Fortune is a fickle jade,
and there is no telling how soon any of us may
be reduced to penury. It would scarcely be
Lelieved if wo should say that here, in Clear
field, there are persons who sometimes have
not a dozen mouthsful of wholesome food in
their bouse and yet it is the sad truth. - Such
things should draw the attention of an enlight
ened, christian community, and wc trust that
every one will occasionally glance into tho a
bodes of the lowly to see if pinching want is
lurking about, and drive it hence. "To feed
the hungry and clothe the naked," are virtues
lor the exercise of which yon have promise of
reward hereafter, for Christ says, "Inasmuch
as ye have done it unto the least of one of
these my brethren, ye have done it unto me."

CyBought the Messenger printing office at

man, Clark Wilson, Esq., late of the Clearfield
Republican. He takes possession this week.
We wish him pecuniary success.
27"Queer what strange fancies a little old
rye, taken in small doses, will produce in the
minds of some. The other night we met a
male biped, who bad been indulging in vari
ous potations, who imagined himself to be a
locomotive, and was prrEng and blowing at a
fine rate. lie didn't find out his mistake until
lie brought up against a j sign post, which ena
bled him to identify himself.

CT'Tomd Stones, &q. We direct attention
to the advertisement of I. Ulrey, of Tyrone
City, which will be found in another portion
of our paper. He uses the best of American
marble, and finishes his work in a neat and du
rable manner. Persons wishinir to nrocure
anything in bis line, might do well by giving
him a call.
I7"Cooi.. A mercantile firm in Boston, re
ceived last week a letter from the captain of
one of the brigs they had chartered, dated
Barbadocs, in which he informs them that as
he believes the United States ar! coins to e-
ternal smash, he has sold ship and cargo and
pocketed the money, which, he didn't think,
they, would ever see again, concluding with
some complimentary allusions to our country
men and wishing that he had never seen any
of them.
