Clearfield, Feb. 5th, 1858.
Ma. Row: Dear Sir: Leaving-the discord
ant elements of the County Town in the mid
dle of Court-week, for the purer atmosphere of
the country, and passing through a tolerably
well cultivated farm settlement, we arrived at
Millport, which is a thriving little rillage at
the head of the Little Clcarfleld Creek naviga
tion, and will doubtless be a point of no little
Importance when that navigation is completed
and the vast quantity of stately. oak and pine
growing in the valley of that stream, is being
put upon its bosom to float to a market. From
here I passed through vast forests of pine tim
ber, interspersed with fine farms, to Glen
Hope and Janesville. The latter is injured by
the plank road' to Tipton passing at some dis
tance by it. The former is dull, because de
pendent on the lumber trade. From here, I
returned to Ansonville, which is a beautifully
located village, on the turnpike from Lumber
villa to Gien.IIope, surrounded by an exten
sive settlement of well cultivated farms to sup
port it, many of the occupants of which are
emigrants from noble and fair old Scotia. In
passing through the various places which we
visited, I could not help being struck with the
contrast between those who have turned their
attention exclusively to the cultivation of the
oil, and those who, despising so slow a way
of making money, have embarked in the un
certain and vexatious business of lumbering.
The one has been for years enjoying what the
other has been expecting, and now when the
pressure of the times has thrown the lumber
men upon their backs, the farmer stands up
right, and firm as his own freehold, compara
tively regardless of the suspension of banks
and the money gambling movements of the
world. The energy and perseverance with
which the ignis fatxtis of the lumbering busi
ness has been pursued, is certainly admirable
and speaks well for the industry of those em
ployed in it. If, however, they had exerted
themselves to the samo degree in clearing and
cultivating the soil, they would doubtless have
found themselves in better health, with more
comfortable homes and fewer debts. But what
is past, is past recalling, l would suggest to
those lumbermen who are now lying on their
cars, waiting for better times, to make a com
parison between themselves and those engaged
la other business, and see whether they had
not better seek a more certain employment.
Yours, Sec,
To Correspondents and others. Commu
nications, to secure attention, must be accom
panied by a responsible name.
Proceedings of meetings should be handed
in ear!y. It is very uninteresting to fill a col
umn with proceedings of a meeting held three
or four weeks previous.
Brevity must also be obserred. It is not
expected that the minutest details should be
given in a report for publication.
We aro willing, and desire at all times to
insert anything that is news, or will edify our
readers. At the same time we expect persons
to bo courteous, and not ask us to do too
much for mere accommodation.
Testerday from 6 to 8 inches of snow fell
bere. In the erening it rained a little ; but
daring the night it froze. As soon as the snow
gets broken down, we will bare good sleigh
Ing. Some timber was hauled during the last
week, and more will be got in this.
Bibles. We direct attention to tho adver
tisement of the Clearfield County Bible Soci
ety, in another column. It may be a matter
of interest to many to know that bibles, testa
ments, &c, can bo procured at much lower
prices from the Society tban elsewhere.
" Oca County Commissioners have recoived a
statement of the cost of keeping prisoners in
the Western Penitentiary, from which it ap
pears that, alter deducting the amount of their
earnings, there is a deficiency of $143 31 due
the Penitentiary from this county.
Revival. A revival has been in progress
in the Methodist church in this place, during
the last two weeks, and quite a number of per
sons hare professed religion and connected
themselves with the church.
The tradesman who does not advertise liber
ally, has been very appropriated compared
to a man who has a lantern, but is too stingy
to buy a candle. .
- Expensive Wars. Fighting Indians ap
pears to be a very expensive luxury for the
general government. Nobody can tell how
many millions it cost to drive a few red-skins
'out of the swamps of Florida, and catch "Bill v
Bowlegs." And now it appears, from official
documents, that the ' necessary ; expenses in
curred lor tiie suppression of the Indian hos
tilities in Washington Territory, were nearly a
million ana a nan oi aotiars, ana the total ex
penses unpaid in Oregon, for similar purposes,
are fonr millions five hundred thousand dollars!
For the maintenance of tho volunteer force in
the former, not including the nay of the vol
onteers, the. expense was nine hundred and
sixty-one thousand dollars, and in the latter
over three millions. At the lowest estimate,
the Indian troubles in tbe Pacific territories
jor.uregon and Washington, Lave cost the na
tipaal tWMury mora than ten millions of. dol

ROBINS EXPECTORANT,
An
COMPOUND SYRUP OF WILD CHERRY.
FOR THE CURB OP
Bronchial affections. Coughs, Colds, Pleurisy, Broa
chitis, Asthma, and all other diseases of the throa
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 immediute relief. In this ever
changing climate, where coughs and colds so fre
quently end in consumption and death, no family
should be without this certaix cure.
It would be easy to follow in tbe wake of the ven
ders of natent medicine, and multiply certificates
got np for tbe occasion, of miraculous cures, but no
such adventitious aid is necessary in introducing
this preparation to the public. Its real value, and
never failing success, in accomplishing all promis
ed for it, cannot but give it a wide circulation, and
recommend it to all those afflicted witn diseases ior
which it is a remedy. Price 37 i Cents per Bottle.

THE NEW-YORK STEAM SAW-MILL
AND MACHINE COMPANY. CAPITAL:
S250.000 This company has been organized with,
the above capital for the purpose of supplying tha
demand for the Combination PORTABLE
STEAM SAW-MILL, and other Improved Ma
chinery. They have purchased the entire machine
ry business heretofore carried on by J. M. Emer
son A Ci., also the Montgomery works at Yonkers,
on tbe Hudson, near this city, and with the expe
rience and facilities combined in its organization
are prepared to furnish machinery of all kinds at
more liberal rates, than has ever been offered at
any other establishment.
THE COMBINATION SAW-MILL, was patented
October, 1356, 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 wherever tbeir merits)
have been tested they are being adopted by lumber
manufacturers in preference to all other mills.
The following letter expresses tbe general opin
ion of those who are using the Combination Mill :
Messrs. Emerson A Co Gentlemen : I have tried
the saw-mill purchased of you, and will saj that
it performs well, and more than meets my expec
tations. I am well pleased with its performance.
I set it np on a email stream that afforded constant
water about as thick as my little finger, which was
much more than sufficient to supply the boiler.
We are able to cut 3.000 feet of beautiful lumber la
12 hours, with something less than one eord ot
wood. It is the very thing we have needed inonr
county for a long time. With a little trouble and.
expense, we aro able to move it from five to ten
miles per day, and set it up in the heart of tha
timber, which save the great burden of hauling
the logs a long distance to. tbe mill.
Yours, respectfully, Jesse Kerr, Jr.,
Louisville. Tennessee.
The Company have purchased. Lund's Patent
Feed Arrangement,, which is illustrated and des
cribed in the 'Scientific American' for October 24.
This adds greatly to the efficiency of the mill.
