Notice. The Vsioit District IssTrrrTE,
comprised of the districts of Clearfield, Cur
wensville, Lawrence, Pike and Penn. in concert
with yocr Co. Superintendent, deem it expedi
ent to call the teachers and friends of educa
tion, in the county, together this winter, in a'
County Institute, having for its object, the mu
tual improvement of teachers, the advancement
of the cause of popular education throughout
the county, and effecting of a permanent Coun
ty Institute organization. The undersigned
were appointed a committee to fix upon the
time and place, and issue the call. After con
sultation, we have agreed upon the twenty
first and twenty-second of January, (Court
week,) to meet in the Town Hall in Clearfield
Borough, at 10 o'clock A. M. Teachers of the
County are all earnestly solicited to be pres
ent, to aid in furthering the interests of that
great work in which they are engaged.
Fellow Teachers arguments need not be
presented to induce you to come. You are
engaged in a work sufficient to tax your ener
gies, demand your highest abilities, and call
lor all the facilities with which you can avail
yourselves. The importance of Institutes,
wherever the public mind is properly aroused
to the interest of education, is universally felt
and acknowledged. Institutes and Associa
tions are formed and attended with enthusi
asm, generally, throughout the State. In
comparison with their value, the time and ex
pense are minor considerations. Come up,
therefore, fellow teachers. Come, and give
each other the friendly grasp and social greet
ing. Come, and feel that yon are brothers,
having one great aim and common sympathies.
Come, and gain new energies and aspirations
for your work, by your intercourse and united
deliberations; and let your minds be fired to
pledge perpetual allegiance upon the altar of
popular education. L. L. Still, 1

ScnooL Directors op Clearfield Cocxtt :
A call has been issued to the Teachers of the
bounty to assemble in ClearGeld Borough, on
January the 21st and 22d, in the Town Hall, at
10 A. M., for the purpose of holding a County
Institute. cordially invite you to attend.
Come and see what we are doing to improve
the system of teaching, to benefit you and your
children. In some parts of the county the
Directors value the Institutes so highly that
they gire the teachers their time to attend them.
I hope this will be made a uniform rule
throughout the County.

relied on, while the well known house of E
W. Clark & Co., Commission Stock and Ex
change Brokers, will correct tbo Stock List

Opejted Aoaijj. Our fellow townsman, n
Hays Morrow, has taken the old Hemphill
Hotel, and, as will be seen by an advertise
ment in another column, will be prepared to
accommodate guests during the ensuing court

good house, and render satisfaction to all who
may favor him with their custom.
Amputated. We understand that a Mr.
Sulsbach, near Woodland, in Bradford town
chip, this county, had one of his legs amputa
ted above the knee, yesterday. Some weeks
since he cut his knee, and mortification cn
encd, which rendered amputation necessary to
cave his life, if possible.

FOR THECIT.E OF
Bronchial affectionsXoughs, Colds, Pleurisy, Broa
chitis, Asthma, and all other diseases of the thro.i
and lungs, except Consumption. This invaluable
remedy is no quack nostrum, but is prepared from
the recipe of a regular physician, who during a
practice of twenty-five years, used it with unpar
alleled success. It is a combination of expecto
rant remedies, simple in their character and used
by every educated physician. It is easily taken,
produces no nausea or other disagreeable effects,
and gives almost immediate relief. In this ever
changing climate, where coughs and colds so fre
quently end in consumption and death, no family
should be without this certain cure.
It would be easy to follow in the wake of the ven
ders of patent medicine, and multiply certificates
got up for the occasion, of miraculous cures, but no
such adventitious aid is necessary in introducing
this preparation to tho public. Its real value, and
never failing success, in accomplishing all promis

recommend it to nil those afflicted with diseases for
which it is a remedy. Price 371 Cents per Bottle

DAILY TELEGRAPH FOR THE SES
SION. PROPOSED ENLARGEMENT.
The JLxrrishurg Daily Telegraph is now in tho
second year of its existence. It started last fall
rather as an experiment, and has succeeded be
yond the most sanguine expectations of its publish
ers. It has gradually won its way to public favor,
until it has placed itself upon a firm and sure ba
sis, and is now one of the permanent -institutions'
of the Capitol. It shall be the effort of the pub
lishers to continue it in the spirit in which it has
been conducted, to add to its general and local in
terest, and to merit its steadily increasing patron
age i and should its increased patronage in sub
scription and advertising be commensurate with
their hopes and expectations, it is their intention
to enlarge it about tho first of January next, by
the addition of four more columns. This will give
us additional room for our advertising patrons,
without intrenching upon the space allotted to tho
reading matter. During tho Legislative session
it is the most desirable paper in the State. Tho
paper will be strictly neutral tn potitirs.
During the approaching session of the Legisla
ture, it is our intention to make tho '-Daily Tel
egraph" a correct and reliable exponent of the
doings of the Legislature of Pennsylvania. With
this view, a corps of competent Reporters will be
employed in each House. Tho session will be one
of more than ordinary importance. The derange
ment of the currency, and the peculiar position of
tho Banks, will require, or, at least, will excite
much legislation. Incorporated companies for
manufacturing, mining and other purposes, will
also require much legislation. It shall be our
province to present to the readers of the Telesrraph
full and impartial legislation upon these and all
Other subjects, wherein they may be interested.
Business men throughout the State, who desire
a correct knowledge of the doings of their repre
sentatives during the sessions of the Legislature,
and there are inauy such, do not properly appre
ciate the Telegraph Through its coliuius they
can obtain this knowledge, and also receive tho
very latest news of the day, domestic and foreign,
by telegraph and mails ; and will be a perfect
mirror of tho news throughout the world. Per
sons who desire correct informatioa, and who once
take the Telegraph, would not do without i t again.
The Local department will be attended to as u
sual, and will give a faithful record of everything
of intorest occurring in our immediate midst.
The Ttlegrapk will be published every evening,
(Sundays excepted.) on the loi lowing terms:
