THE JOURNAL.
CLEARFIELD, FA., NOV. 24, 1858.
Winter. Considerable quantities of snow
have (alien in this region within tbc past two
or three days. Yesterday, notwithstanding it
was somewhat slushy, we noticed several sleds
and cutters passing along the streets. The jin
gle of the sleigh-bells sounded quite merry.
The Itch. it is reported that this exceed
ingly troublesome disease is prevailing to
soma extent among the school children in this
place. The matter should be investigated by
the Directors, and if there are any who are af
Cicted in this way they should not be permit
ted to attend until thoroughly cured of the
disease
jfrV Cocr.T HorsE.The Grand Jury, at a
former Court, reported favorably to the erec
tion of a new Court IIouso in this place.
Last week, upon the recommendation of the
"Court, the Grand Jury concurred in that re
port. Tho old Court House is entirely too
small, and is not at all adapted to the wants
of the County, and we trust, if we are to have
new one, that the work will be immediately
contracted for and pushed forward vigorously.
Thanelsgiyixq Day was pretty generally ob
served in our place. Tho Court adjourned
over till 2 o'clock, in order that all who felt
disposed could attend public worship. A
greater part of the stores, offices, shops, Jfcc,
were closed, and services were held in St.
Andrews church by Rev. Dr. McLeod and in
the Presbyterian by Rev. J. M. Galloway. It
is always gratifying to see the request of the
Chief Executive of the Commonwealth treat
ed with respect by the people, who thus evince
their appreciation of the manifold blessings
civil and religious which they enjoy at the
Lands cl a kind and beneficent Providence.
Singular Incident. On Wednesday eve
ning of this week, Mr. Terence Bolian, of
Lawrence township, was standing in the Court
JIouso during the evening session, when he
suddenly fell to the floor, apparently lifeless,
lie was immediately taken to the "Mansion
House" and a physician called, but it was
Bonio time before animation was restored.
We saw Mr. B. the same evening, shortly af
ter his recovery, and he informed us that ho
felt as well as usual both before and after his
audden illness and knew nothing of the inci-
dents of it, except as they had been related to
hini l y others. Republican Xoc. IS.
School Exhibition. Last Friday evening,
19th insf., the public school in Curwensville
. gave an exhibition, which, we learn, was cred
itable to all concerned. After the delivery ef
- number of declamations, Mr. Still, our wor
thy County Superintendant made some ap
propriate remarks ; these were followed by
i ho reading of a paper, composed of the con
tributions of scholars, which proved not only
highly interesting, but elicited loud applause
from the large and appreciative audience.
The proceedings were enlivened ly the per
formances of the Curwensville Saxe-Horn
Band, which is composed of as fine and clever
a set of musicians as can be found anywhere.
The entire proceedings rendered gcccral sat-
-iifuction.
