CLEARFIELD, PA., JAN. 7, 185".
Personal. One year lias elapsed since the
present proprietor took possession of tbe Jour
milt under, TKtrhaps, not the most promising
proipects. Those; from whom we purchased,
had found it a rather unprofitable corcern ; Lnt
hy judicious management and a strict atten
tioa to business, we have been enabled, if we
may be permitted to use a common expres
sion, to "make both ends meet." During the
year we have had the paper, we have increased
its circulation, having added over a hundred
subscribers to our list. These have, with very
few exceptions, paid in advance, and a large
cumber of the old subscribers have also puid
ns with commendable punctuality. To a!i
such we tenier our heartfelt thanks, and hope
that all may follow their worthy example. All
the accounts of the offics since the establish
ment of the p.i-?r? belong to us. The ap
proaching Court week will afford an opportu
nity for squaring up, to such as are in arrears
for the first or second years. We have no dt
hire to be strict or pressing with our patrons at
this time, but we have engagements to meet
in common with everybody else, and should
13 prepared for them. Besides, we believe
that ''short credits make long friends," and
wc think all will agree that punctual payment
would result to the mutual advantage of reader
and printer. We trust that what we have said
will be regarded as having been spoken, as it
was intended, with fraternal feeling.
PctjajTs MosrnLT. With the Jannary Xo.,
which we received some days ago, commenced
the tir.t'.i volume of this superior American
periodical, which enjoys a high a:id will de
served, reputation, both at home and abroad.
Its contributors arc among the best our coun
try ofionls, and the tenor of the whole journal
is pure American. The publishers will spare
do pains or expense to make it a useful and in
teresting "magazine. A person remitting SO
to the publishers, will receive the work one
year post paid. Two copies So, five copies
$10. Address Dix, Edwards &c Co., S21
Broadway, JCew York.
IIorsEnoLD Wokds, edited by Charles Dick
ens, is issued by the same publishers, at $3 a
year. The January 2o. contains many excel
lent articles, by eminent authors, and altogeth
er it is a very desirable publication. House
hold Words and Putnam's Monthly will be sent
one year to one address for $-5.
The ScuooLrELLow is a delightful little pub
lication, suitable for the capacities of the
young, fcr whom it is deigned, though cider
heads might derive profit from its moral teach
ings and useful information. It is none of the
wishy-washy trash we see too fre'i'ienily noiv--days;
but it is plain, manly common sense,
Loth entertaining and instructive. The price
of the book is one dollar a year. Address

Washington Affairs. The Circuit Court
of the Uaited States, for the District of Co
lumbia, on the 3d iiist., governed by the deci
;CU5 of the Sapreuie Court, refused the peti
tion of Kic'iard W. Thompson for a writ of
maniuii.us to to directed to the Secretary of
the Treasury commanding him to comply w ith
th3 r.ct cf Congress appropriating 10,500 dol
lars lor strric!.-3 renJered by Thompson to the
Menominee Indians. Mr. Thompson, in his
memorial, charges that Mr. Guthrie caused
the case to be leferred to the Attorney Gen
eral )-. certain questions which did not consti
tutionally and legitimately enter into it, nnd
Mr. Guthrie, by direction of the President, in
forms Mr. Thompson that the money cannot
be pail without thu consented the 'lenomi
necs freely given ; and thst the law of Con
gress was not in compliance with the memori
al of these Indians.
The reports that Gen. Cas will be Secretai'
of State under the new Administration are pro
nounced incorrect. It is understood from ex
cellent authority that he has been offered the
position and declined accepting it.
Kansas. A Washington correspondent of
the Tribune, writing under date of Dec. COth,
says that a party of South Carolinians from
Kansas had just pass-.d through that city, re
turning home and abandoning that Territory
as presenting no hopes to their political enter
prf?e or personal fortunes. They and others
from the South relinquish the experiment as
desperate, and complain of the limited mate
rial aid lurnished by their own section.
The Richmond Enquirer warns Mr. Buchan
an to beware of an attempt to form his Cabi
net with a view to satisfy the Free Kansas
Democracy, or to carry out any such policy as
that indicated by the late speech of Senator
Bigler. The South will permit ho tampering
with Free Kansas people ; this Mr. Buehanan
is given distinctly to understand by the En
quirer. The Wood worth patent lor lumber planing,
which has been o long a subject of litigation,
and which was ence extended by Congress,
expired on the 2Gtli Dec, and we have no
information that it has received any further
attention from the National Legislature. It
Is, therefore, public property.
: We direct attention to the nw advertise
ments in to-day'" Journal.
THE DEED SCOTI CASE
This case.which occupied the SapreraeConrt
at Washington for somedays.has excited much
interest. The following are- tbe facts in the
case ': "Dr. Emerson, of the C S. army, took
with him from Missouri a slave named Dred
Scott, as a body servant, to a military post at
Kock Island, in tbe State of Illinois. After
remaining there two years, he removed to Fort
Snelling, which post is north of the line of 36
deg- 30 ruin. At this last post, a slave woman,
brought there by M"jor Tallafero, and owned
by bim,was married toDred Scotland they had
two children, Be of whom was born at this
pot, and another after the parties had return
ed to Missouri. Neither of these slaves were
ever manumitted by their owners. But under
the Constitution of Illinois, Slavery is prohib
ited, and Dred Scott could have asserted bis
right of freedom in that State. The other post
where Scott and his wife resided was in a ter
ritory from which slavery is excluded by the
Missouri act of 1820. Scott and his w ife were
sold by their owners to Sanford, against whom
the suit was brought for their freedom. Scott
claimed that, having been voluntarily carried
Ly his owner into a free State,and having been
there domiciled, he w as, upon his 'voluntary
return w ith his master, to Missouri, a free man
there, in virtue of his temporary residence in
a free territory. The same claim was made in
behalf of his wife. The Missouri Court deci
ded adversely to the claim, on the ground that
the temporary residence in a Free State did
not make them free in the State of Missouri,
unless their owners had signified by some act
ami intention to manumit them by taking them
icto free territory, which did not appear to
be the fact ol this case. Dred Scott appeals
to the United States Supreme Court."
The decision involves the following ques
tions :
First Whether a free black man is a citi
zen of the United States, so as to be compe
tent to sue in the courts o( the United States.
Second Whether a slave carried voluntari
ly by his master Into a Free State, and retur
ning voluntarily with his master to his home,
is a free man by virtue of such temporary res
idence ; and,
Thirdly Whether the eighth section of the
Missouri act of 1820, prohibiting slavery north
f Z'i d. 30 min., is constitutional or not.
TEE TEEA1Y WITH GREAT B2ITAI5-.
T. e new treaty with Great Britain, sanc
tioned by Mr. Marcy and negotiated by Mr.
Dallas, has been surreptitiously pub!ished,and
its provisions are such as naturally to excite
! tbe interests of the Country. We hardly know
what its ultimate fate will be, lor it concedes
to Great Britain more real influence in Central
American aUjii s than has ever been popular in
thisCountry.and it is well known that a strong
demonstration will be made against its confir
mation. It destroys irrevocably the Monroe
doctrine, and acknowledges the necessity of
respecting not only the rights of the Central
American States, but also the right of Euro
pean Nations to ptoteet them in those rights.
The following are the main provisions of the
treaty :
The United States and Great Britain agree
to propose to the States of Nicaragua and Cos
ta Kica the plan contained in this Treaty for
the settlement ol all questions relating to the
Mosquito Territory, and to the jurisdiction
ver the port of San Juan, and the navigation
of the River of that name.
A district of country along the coast, from
San Juan northwardly, 13 assigned for the oc
cupancy of the Mosquito Indians. The sover
eignty of Nicaragua over this tract and all the
sea coast, Iroru the river Segovia, in latitude
15 di g. north, down to the disputed boundary
between the Republic of Nicaragua, Costa Ri
ca acd New Grenada, is admitted to belong to
Nicaragua.
These Indians are to be governed in all res
pects like the settled tribes within the United
States, and their territory is to Ikj a dependent
province of Nicaragua, but the United States
and Great Britain are to exercise a joint pro
tectorate or supervision over them, inasmuch
as their rights of property and of local gov
ernment arc to Lc defined in treaties to be con
cluded with both these powers by Nicaragua;
a::d further, the Indians are not to be allowed
to alienate their lands without the consent of
tho United States and Great Britain.
All of Central America on tho coast, com
monly called the Mosquito const, extending
from the mouth of the Segovia, in lat. 15 deg.
North, and Ion. 82 deg-. .40 min. West, and Es
cuda de Ocragaus in lat. 9 deg. North, and
Ion. fcl deg. CO min., (or whatever point may
be determined on as the true Southern boun
dary f the district,) is recognized and declar
ed to be w ithin the sovereignty of Nicaragua,
except the Mosquito reservation.
Greytown or San Juan is to be created a free
port by the act and grant of Nicaragua. This
free port and city are to remain under the sov
ereignty cf Nicaragua, though, as it will have
the right to make all its own laws and choose
all its executive officers, it may be regarded
as only nominally dependent upon Nicaragua,
and under the joint protectorate of the United
States and Great Britain.
The British province and colony of Belize,
between latitude 1G deg. and 18 deg. 40 min.,
distance by the coast 190 miles, is admitted
not to have been embraced by the Clayton and
Buhver Treaty, and the pcrpituity of the "set
tlement" as a British possession, is assured by
a provision that its boundaries shall be run
and fixed, and that they shall not afterwards
bo extended.
The Bay Islands are declared a free territo
ry unde the sovereignty of Honduras.
Ecr.oE.--By tbe steamship Fulton, which
arrived at New York last Wednesday, we learn
that hostilities are threatened between Spain
and Prussia 5 that Persia formally accepts the
declaration of war made against her by Eng
land. The market for breadstuff is dull, and
prices have declined.
An old dog cannot alter bis way of barbing.
KANSAS.
We hare some farther news from Kansas.
A man who had just arrived at Lawrence
from Ossawatoniic reports all quiet in the sou
thern part of the Territory. The great land
sale at Leavenworth continued to pass off qui
etly. The rivers Missouri and Kansas were
frozen over, and navigation closed. A spe
cial messenger had arrived at Lecorupton,
from Washington, with dispatches from the
President. They contained, among other
things, the official information to George W.
Clarkgthe notorious Indian agent for the Pot
tawatoinies, that he hail been removed, and
Isaac Winster, of Culpeper county, Va., ap
pointed in his stead. This blow was quite un
expected to Clark, who has got much excited
about it, and swears revenge on allwhoweie
instrumental in his removal. Col. Titas,
while at Kansas city on his way cast, was ser
ved by the sheriff with a capias, issued in a
suit against him for an unpaid board bill at
Westpott. The Colonel cursed the whole
town as composed of abolitionists, refused ta
obey the writ, and the sheriff did not arrest
him. lie and his men were ont of money.
The road from Kansas city to Jefferson, Mo.,
is now so much tiaveled by persons going
East and South, that it is lined with broken
down stages and other vehicles. At the land
sale up to theCdinst., 125 claims had been
purchased by squatters, covering 24,520 acres,
and 121 claims by speculators, embracing 10.
734 acres. Gov. Geary has refused to allow
the free State prisoners to bo disgraced by
the ball and chain. A formal demand on him
by Sheriff Jones was declined in writing.
Through all the trials suffered by the people
ot Ossawatomie, the two faithful clergymen ol
their only church have remained with them,
laboring amid perils and hardships, and though
their church and school buildings and library
were destroyed by the Missonriins at the
time the town was burned, religious services
are still held there regularly every SunJay.
Of the six free State prisoners captured in
that neighborhood lately by the U. S. officials,
three have escaped. Nine-tenths of all the
settlers within ten miles ol thit place arc said
to be free State people, r.unibering in all about
five hundred souls. There has been much
suffering there. One benevolent Quaker liv
ing near, g ive to th- sufferers liberally as long
as his own si ore lasted, tut at last he got sick
himself, and was then left destitute, and was
obliged to d.-pend npon relief from others.
An old man. 70 years of age, who had emigra
ted from Wisconsin with $4,000, has lost eve
rything in the course of the war, bad one son
killed in the attack on Ossawatomie, and is
now about to return, desponding to his old
home. The new railway project from Keo
kuk, Iowa, to Kansas city, Mo., has given a
great impulse to the latter and the towns in
Kansas near it. A project of another railway
to connect w ith this has been started in Kan
sas, to proceed from Kansas city along the
Kaw river to Lawrence. $ 30,000 have been
subscribed to it. Gov. Geary has, it is said,
sent a. letter to Gov. King, of New York, in
which he is understood to take gronnd satis
factory to the North. The trial of Patridgc,
one of the free State prisoners from Ossawato
mie, bad been postponed at Tecumseh, ow ing
to the absence of the free State witnesses.
They all refused to attend, believing it merely
a trap to arrest them. Partridse had found
means to convey to them accounts of the in
humanity with which he is treated. Very
fe-, except resi.lents, are now remaining in
the Territory. The laud sale has produced
an excellent effect in exciting a spirit cf enter,
prise and friendly feeling bstwoen the two
part i.-s before unknown. Judge Elmore and
some other conservative pro-Slavery men
have visited Lawrence, and made overtures
for peace and union upon the basis of true
popular sovereignty. They talked with Gor.
Robinson. It was conceded that tho bogus
laws ought to be repealed, and that the dis
pute between the two parties should be refer
red to a genuine election, when none but vo
ters of three months residence should vote,
and every possible protection against fraud
should be given. It is said that a plan was
agreed upon Ly which both parties of genuine
residents should unite in an appeal to Con
gress to pass a bill drawn up on this plan.
Persons recently from the Territory say tha,
pro-Slavery is worn out by the long contestt
and that the free soi lots preponderate in the
ratio often to one. A large northern emigra
tion to the territory is looked for in the spring.
The K ansas Committee at Chicago puts forth
a statement to this effect. Access to the Ter
ritory is now perfectly unimpeded.
Mr. Eiclek's Spklch. Senator Bigler's
speech of December Pth, is kicking up quite
a bobbery among the Southern supporters of
Mr. Buclnpan not because of any especial
value in the speech itself, but because it is
supposed to foreshadow the policy of the
President elect on the Slavery question.
The speech was essentially Pre? Soilish.
The Senator declared that if he was himself
a citizen of Kansas, lie would vote against
the introduction of Slavery there, and gave us
to understand that Mr. Buchanau would pur
sue the same course ; and that, under the in
fluence which w ill be paramount in the early
future, Kansas is certain to become a Free
State.
Southern Senators looked aghast when such
expressions as these fell from the lips of the
speaker; and the mere they think of it, the
more I hey don't like it, and the more they
suspect in electing Mr. Buchanan they have
caught a Tartar. So let it be. Mr. Bigler
was dumb last week when the present debate
commenced ; but the Electoral Colleges have
made up their record now, and the Senator's
tongue can wag fearlessly and free.

AS0TKEE EXPOSURE.
Wc clip the follow ing from one of our ex
changes: Pexxstlvaxia Politics Qceer Revela
tions. Hon. Kenneth R.iynor has been mak
ing a speech at Raleigh, N. C, in defence of
his political course during the late Presiden
tial canvass, especially in regard to the charge
brought against him of having sought to aid
in the election of Frcmort. He acknowledg
ed that he was desirous of adopting any mea
sure that would defeat Buchanan, but denied
that he had any sympathy for Fremont. Alter
explaining his own course of action, he paid
special attention to the Democrats and straight
Fillmore men of Philadelphia, and said that
"a gentleman ot his acquaintance was ap
proached by an emissary from Forney, who
told him if he would exert himself, not for the
Democratic party, but for the straight Fill
more ticket, $100,000 vculd be placed to his
credit in any bank he might select !" This Fill
more ticket, he ad led, was tho one supported
by Mr. Sanderson, "who," said Mr. R., "it
was well known, had not heard the jingle of a
dollar for many a month, yet since the elec
tion he had been able to purchase a house worth
S 20,000."
BrcHASAX ix Ireland. The Irish papers
are in ecstaeies over the election of Buchanan.
A Dundalk paper says :
'The greatest news ol the week is f'ie tri
umphant election of James Buchanan, the son
if an Irishman of the old stock as Presi
dent of tiie American Republic. Honor to
the men who supported his cause, and to those
who returned h;ni by their votes, amongst
whom the Irish residents of the States stand
out conspicuous. . . On behalf of the peo
ple in this part of Ireland, we beg to thank
the nobler supporters of Buchanan for the vic
tory they have won. . . The rascally press
of England did its utmost by lies and slander
to blacken the character of" Buchanan ln-fore
the American people, but it has utterly failed
in its vile object. The Democrats in America
are not going to be gnided by the vile English
press. Its censure ihey accept as praise, and
its praise they receive as censure. According
ly they have rallied round Buchanan, arid
borne him triumphantly to victory."
That's the way they talk of Buchanan and
his party in the "ould counthry." It is easy
to see which party foreigners like.
HcxrixcDON, the Forger. The trial of
this swindler, has developed the fact that his
forgeries amounted to $oo'),O0O. The attempt
was M a do to have him acquired on t!n; plea of
insanity. The trial also develops a sad state
of morals among brokers and men of business.
The Minor says it leaks out in the course ol
the investigations that the confidential, per
sonal and business frier -Is of the dashing for
ger knew of his criminal transactions, and yet
were "hand and glove1' with him in the street
and in his house. They associated with him
openly; drank his wine ; cat his dinners;
drove his fast horses; admired his pictures
and pretty women, knowing all the while that
he had committed forgeries enough to send a
hundred men .to Sing Sing ! On the principle
that the receiver of stolen goods is as bad as
the thief, there are certain parties who hold
their heads high on 'Change, that are cheat
ing the State out of convict labor every day
they are permitted outside cf the prison yard.
Huntingdon has been found guilty, and st-u-tenccd
to four years and six months imprison
ment at hard labor.
I.vscEEEcriox. The Southern papers are
filled at this time with accounts of plots, trea
sons, stratagems and blood. In Mississippi,
Alabama, Florida, Maryland, Virginia an 1
Kentucky, "plots have been discovered."
Some negro, whose testimony can not be ta
ken in any case concerning a whit .j man, is
brought up, questioned, whipped, frightened
and then di.-closes a terrible plot fur an out
break. Some f the accused are taken and
whipped to death. One received 750 lashes.
A dispatch from Louisville says an :;ff;rmative
vote passed in the crowd in relation to the ne
groes of the Joyce family, that they should le
burned, but the determination was not carried
out. The New Orleans Creirtnt, of the 21st
Dec, says that "at Jackson, Miss., 27 negroes
have been arrested. Excitement intense; the
particulars or it, hard to obtain ; and although
universal, its origin and foundation are verv
difficult to ascertain." Fear is not or.ly cruvl,
but suspicious.
Ater's American Alman ac is now rea ly for

with it by the puolisher for distribution gratis

richest collection of anecdotes we know of a
callender accurately calculated for this meri
dian and found reliable, besides an amount of
valuable medical information which thou 11 be
in the possession of every family. This little
annual has become a welcome visitor to the
fireside of the American people, and not to
them alone, for its numbers are freely circula
ted in almost every civilized country under
the sun. It is published in the English, Span
ish, French and German languages, w ith cal
enders adapted to every meridian of the Nor
thern Hemisphere. Over twenty-seven hun
dred thousand copies were issued last year,
which is doubtless the largest edition of .any
one book in the world. Our readers are res
pectfully invited to call and get a copy, and
when got, keep it.
