8. B. ltOW, ED1TOII AND PROPRIETOR.
CLEARFIELD, PA., JAN. 13, 1858.
Thanks. Our thanks are clue Gov. Pollock
for an early copy of liis message. Also, to
Mr. Souther, of the Senate, and Messrs. Wilcox
and Struthers, of the House, for favors.
Ee-brokex. The little daughter of John F.
Weaver, Esq., of this place, who had broken
her arm some time ago,on yesterday, 12th inst,
fell and broke it again at the same place.
Bcrxkd. We regret to learn that a house,
belonging to Mr. John llyen, about 4 miles be
yond New Washington, on the road leading to
the Cherry Tree, was destroyed by fire, some
two weeks since, together with the contents.
The house was occupied by Mr. Kycn and Mr.
Jas. T. Scott, and was worth $G0O to 800.
The Are is supposed to have originated by
mice carrying matches behind the lining and
there ismtinjr them. The loss is a serious
one, more particularly in these hard times.
GovEitxoa's Message. We give in this pa
per the last annual message of Gov. Pollock
It is a well written and creditable document.
It presents the financial affairs of the Common'
wealth in a clear and comprehensive manner,
and contains a number of suggestions for the
consideration of the Legislature. Gov. Pol
lock is deserving of commendation for the
faithful and able discharge of his duties while
Executive of the State, and he will retire with
high credit to himself.
A Good O.ne. A person who is in the col-
lectiug business in this county, says a man can
travel very cheap now-a-days, lor il he t ikes a
$10 note nobody can change it when lie offers
to pav liU bill. Wishing to come to our town
a few days since, and finding he hadn't money
enouzh to jiav his toll and "feed," he went to
a collector of poor tax, borrowed his dupli
cate, made a "raise" of a couple dollars on it,
and went through swimmingly. That chap,
we should think, will certainly get along.
Scddex Death. On last Thursday evening,
the 7th inst.. Miss Elizabeth Macumber, of
. Lawrence township, died very suddenly. She
Jiad eaten supper seemingly as well as usual,
but when about retiring lor the night, and af
ter filling the stove with wood, she complained
of feeling sick and that she would have to
vomit. Before medical aid could be procured,
and within half an hour of the time she com
plained, she was a corpse. Tho causa of her
sudden death is not positively known. She
has always, we believe, been rather delicate.
She was in the 31lh year of her age.
IIcx-OFF. On last Saturday forenoon, a
horse, hitched in a buggy, in which Mr. Wm.
Ten Eyck, of Curwensville. had come, to our
town, frightened whilst standing at the Man
sion House corner, and ran away. The buggy
came first in contact with the corner of a buil
ding nearly opposite our oftice, and one of the
jVont wheels was knocked to , pieces. The
horse then ran across the street on the side
walk at Irwin's store, where the axle of tho
Imggy came in contact with a post and brought
the runaway quadruped to such a sudden halt
that it literally "rolled over." The buggy
came out of these various performances con
eiderably damaged.
Cool Performances. Aseverybody knows,
our county jail is a great institution, and oc
casionally the 'boarders' indulge in some rich
performances. On Saturday evening, Jas.Cur
Jy and Wm. Miller, who are serving out sen
tences of imprisonment, having been allowed
the privilege of going into the j.iil-yard, scaled
the wall and vamosed. Miller left a note, in
forming the Sheriff that he had gone home to
attend to some affairs, and that he would be
back the next evening. Curly coolly moved
around "to see what was going on in town,"
vntil about nine o'clock, when he returned to
the jail, and, all the doors being locked, had
to rouse the Sheriff to get in. On Monday
evening, Miller also came back.
A Case of Destitution. A iiiend told us a
few days since of a case of destitution, in a
neighboring township, such as we were not
prepared to hear of in our county. Our infor
mant was called upon to make a coffin for a
girlofabout llorlC years of age, who had
died. When ho went to the house, he found
ro furniture of any description in the same;
the mother had no shoes or stockings, nothing
but a thin calico dress, and the children were
co better clad than she was. There was not a
Lite of food in the house, and starvation was
staring them iu the (ace, and it is feared that
this was tire real affliction which caused the
poor girl's death. Oar informant immediately
went to work among the neighbors, and col
lected provisions to supply their present ur
gent wants. The case is a distressing one,
and we trust will receive prompt attention.
Bargains ! We direct attention to the ad
rcrtisenient of Charles Sloan. Esq., who has
opened out bis stock of Goods at the store
room recently occupied by Richard Mossop.
Good bargains can doubtless be procured by
calling at his establishment.
The Report about a fight lictween Lane and
some Government troops in Kansas, is without
foundation in truth. No collision occurred.
The Inauguration of Gov. Packer will take
ltce on Tuesday the l?th day of January.

THE NEW-YORK STEAM SAW-MILL
AND MACHINE COMPANY. CAPITAL
S2.';0."0il This company has been organized with
the above capital for the purpose of supplying th
demand for the Combin itioii POU PAbLIu
STEAM SAW-MILL, nud other I motored- Ma
chinery. They have purchased the entire machine
ry business heretofore cameU on by J. -l, r mer-
son A C., also the Montgomery works at Youkers,
on the !!ui-:.jn, near this city, and with' the expe
rience and facilities couvbincd in its organization
are prepared to furnish macbimry of 11 kinds at
more liberal rates, tlian has cvtr been jucirea at
an v other establishment'. .
THE COMBINATION SAW-MILL, waspatentcd
October. 1355, and is now generally acknowledged
to be the cheapest, most practical, and efficient ;
lumber manufacturing machine in the world. A
large number of them are in successful operation '
in different sections of this country, Canada, Cuba,
and South America, and whercVer theiT merit
have been tested they arc being adopted by lumber
manufacturers in preference to all other mills.
The following letter expresses the general opin
ion of those w ho arc using the Combination Mill :
Messrs. Emkuson A Co Gentlemen : I have tried
the saw-mill purchased of yotl. and will say that
it performs well, and more than meets my sspec
t.iiiou?. 1 am well pleased with its performance.
I set it up on a small stream that afforded constant
w ater about as thick as my little finder, which was
much more than sutiicient to supply the boiler.
We are able to cut Zl.liOl) feet of beautiful lumber in
12 hours, with something less than one cord of
wood. It is the very thing we have needed in our
county for a long time. With a little trouble and
expense, we are able to move it from five to ten
miles per day, and set it up in the heart of tha
timber, which saves the great burden of hauling
the logs a long distance to the mill.
Yours, respectfully, Jesse Kr.itit. Jr..
Louisville. Tennessee.
The Company have purchased wW Ptitrnt
V.ed Arrangement, which is illustrated and des
cribed in the -Scientific American' for October 24.
This adds greatly to the efficiency of the mill.
