CLEARFIELD, PA., JtJLT 7, 1858.
Tbe Fourth The 2d Anniversary of A
tocrican Independence, having come on Sun
day, the citizens of our borough had , their
celebration ou Saturday. The several Sabbath
Schools united, and after forming in proces
sion at the Presbyterian church, proceeded to
tho grove below town, where a stand and ta
ble had Wen constructed for 'the occasion.
Thos. J, McCullough, Esq., read the Declara
tion of Independence, and Robt. J. Wallace
and II. B. Swoope, Esquires, delivered appro
priate, patriotic and eloquent addresses. A
bonntifu.1 collation, prepared by the ladies,
who are deserving of high commendation for
the elegance with which it was got up, was
then spread and fully discussed by all present.
In the evening, a very fine display . of fire
works was witnessed by a large concourse of
foeple. About 7 o'clock p. rn. a very pretty
balloon ascension took place. On Monday
venfng two more were vent up, and floated
through tho clear air, presenting a beautiful
appearance, and raising quite a sensation a
jnong not only the juveniles, but with the old
Mr spectators.
The Sabbath Schools and citizens cf Cur
wensville held their celebration on Saturday
also. Appropriate addresses were delivered
.y Revds. Still, Stine and Barnhart, and L. J.
Crans, Esq. An elegent dinner was partaken
uf In the grove opposite town, and all the pro
ceedings passed ff pleasantly and satisfac
torily. An interesting celebration was also held at
Paradise, which w.ss addressed by I. Test, Esq.
.Celebrations were also held at several other
places in the county, of which, however, we
have no definite information.
Bcrglart. On last Sunday morning, be
tween 12 o'clock and daylight, the store of
C. Kratzer & Son, in this borough, was bur
glariously entered, and from S50 to $60, it is
npposed, of change stolen from the drawers.
Entrance was effected through the window, a
hole, large enough to admit a hand and permit
the loosening of the bolt, being bored wi:h an
acgur through the shutter. On Monday morn
it)2 a man named Llovd was arrested on sus
picion, bnt there was no evidence to justify a
committal and he was accordingly released.
A barber named Smith who seems to be a
bout half negro and half indian, and who has
been around town for a couple weeks is also
suspected of knowing something about the
burglary, lie appears to bo a worthless fel
low, and another darkey who came here about
the same time, who gave his name as Jacob R.
Robinson, and who was examined as a witness,
aid he had been in Ilarrisburg j.u'I for some
dTcuce ; that he has known Smith for about
20 years; that during the first 8 years of their
acquaintance Smith followed preaching ; that
he was rather fond of things spiritual, and
accordingly carried a fl.isk in his pocket when
he weut into the pulpit ; that afterwards an
other negro and Smith had a show, the former
ncting ventriloquist, and the latter attending

pleasures of the day.

GREAT DISCOVERY OF THE AGE.
IMPORTANT TO TOBACCO C HEWERS.
Dr. Gnstav Tt'iinard's Taste Restorative Troche,
the Great Substitute for Tobacco. It is a well
known and incontrovertable fact that the use of
Tobacco is tbe promoting cause nf many of the
most severe MENTAL AND PHYSICAL disorders
to which the race of man is subjeet, ascureful an
alasis and long and painful experience have clear
ly proven that it eontaiaseertain narcotic and poi
sonous properties most dangerous in their effocts,
which by entering into the blood derange the
functions and operations of the Heart, causing ma
ny to suppose that organ to be seriously diseased.
TOBACCO affects also she eutire nervous system,
manifesting itself as all who have ever used the
noxious weed will bear testimony in Lassitude,
Nervous Irritability, Water Brash. Dyspepsia, and
many other disorders of a similar character. The
"Taste Restorative Troches" are designed to coun
teract these baneful influences, and have proved
completely successful in a multitude of cases, and
wherever usod. Being harmless in themselves
they exert a beneficial effect upon the entire sys
tem, restoring the Taste which has become vitia
ted or destroyed by great indulgence, complete
ly removing the irritation and accompanying tick
ling sensation of the Throat which are always
consequent npon abstaining from the use of To
bacco, and by giving a healthy tono to the Stom
ach, invigorate the whole system.
Persons who are irretrievably undermining
their constitutions and shortening their lives,
should 'use these Troches immediately and throw
off the injurious and unpleasant habit of Tobacco
Chewing -
These Troches or Lozenges are put up in a con
venient and portable form at the low price of 50
cants per Box. A liberal discount. to the Trade.
