THE JOUBML.
CLEARFIELD, PA., J AX. 12, 1859.
Fire. Me regret to learn that the barn of
Mr. James McCracken, of Jordan township,
Was burned to the ground ou last Thursday
morning, the Cth instant. A boy in the em
ploy of Mr. Henry Swan went into the horse
stable in the morning, just before daylight,
with a lantern, to feed and harness the horses
for the pnrpose of hauling timber ; and by
some means unknown to him, the hay and
straw caught Are, which he discovered too laic
to check, and the flames spread so rapidly that
the whole mow overhead was on fire in a few
moments. There were nine head of horses in
the stable at the time, but were fortunately
rescued1 without injury. A quantity of Hay,
Clovcr-seed, a Threshing Machine, Harness,
and other property in the barn was consumed.
"So blame is attached to the boy, as he has al
ways been careful. The loss is estimated at
Irom $300 to $500. Xo insurance.
The Li unt u Bcsixess. Our lumbermen are
at present "as busy as nailers' We have
'licen making inquiries in regard to the extent
-of the business this season, and although it is
ont of the question to procure accurate infor
mation, yet we are satisfied that about the tt
frual quantity of square timber will be made.
So far as sawed lumber is concerned, we do
wot know how it will compare with the pro
ducts of former years ; but one thing that we
Vlo know is, that a large number of our saw
ruills are standing idle. On the other hand,
the "log-men" have given out large contracts
n the two Clearfield creeks, Moshannon and
SSinnaniahoning, which will aggregate from
t"MJU0,09 to 80,000,000 feet . The scarcity or
snow this winter has bows er retarded their
operations considerably, and it is doubtful
whether their contracts will all Lc filled.

Meeting of the Clearfield County Bible Socie

day of January, 1S"9, at early candle lighting,
in the Methodist Church, in Clearfield. The
meeting will be addressed by the Rev. Thos.
J5.irnh.irt and others. Ladies and gentlemen
re kindly invited to attend.
January 12. A. M'Lf.od, Pres.
Si.i:iiing. The sledding in this region has
not been very good thus far this winter; but
we see that thos-; who are engaged in the lum
bering business are making good use of what
little snow there is, and are hauling their tim
ber to the riwr.
Coaches. As it may not be generally known
we will state for the benefit of the travelling
public, that there is a tri-weekly line or mail
-roaches running regularly between Tyrone and
-Vow Washington in this county.

I)r."W. A. Piatt, Win. Lang"don, Secretaries.

ted by the President, which was to show why
. and how Pine county should be erected.
On motion, E. B. Camp, John Eson and John

;iiii(tee to draft a preamble and resolutions ex
pressive of the sense of the meeting, lead the
following report which was unanimously a-
. dopted :
Wiiebeas, We have been praying our Legis
lature for quite n number of years, to be pleas
. cd to enact a law for the erection of a new
.county to bo called Pine, out of parts of Clear
field, Indiana, Cambria and Jefferson, and al
though the leading men of the above named
. counties agree that we ought to have a new
-county, yet we are denied year after year our
prayer: Therefore
Resolved, That we are snl ject to much in
. convenience and great expense from th great
distance at which wc reside from our respec
tive connty seats.
Resolved, That wc should be together, and
not separated into tour different counties as
we are at present, that wc cannot expect to be
prosperous until we can concentrate our in
terests and transact our public business in oue
-coinnion-ccntrc.
Resolved, That the entire new cennfy would
le covered with tho very best quality of white
pine and oak timber in the Suite ; that vast
beds of bituminous coal, iron ore, fire-brick
.clay, &c, arc numerous ; that two large
streams of water, running the entire length of
the county from south to north, and fed by in
numerable mountain streams, constitute water
power to which there is no superior in the U
nited States, that several hundred thousand
lollars worth of sawed lumber, timber and
apars are annually exported from the proposed
new county.
Resolved, That for these reasons we are in
,favv of a new county, and will use all honor
. able juesms to effect our purpose.

J. reined v. in which wc have labored to produce
the most effectual alterative that can be made. It
is a concentrated extract of Para Sarsaparilla, so
combined with other substances of still greater al
terative power as to afford an effective antidote for
the diseases Sarsaparilla is reputed to cure, it is
believed that such a remedy is wanted by those
who suffer from Strumouscomplaintg, and that one
which will accomplish their cure must prove of
immense service to this large class of our afflicted
fellow citizens. How completely thisconi pound will
do it has been pro7en by experiment on many of the
worst cases to be found of the followingcoiu plaints:
Scrofula and Scrofulous complaints, Eruptions
and Eruptive Diseases, Ulcers. Pimples, Blotches.
Tumors. Salt ltheum. Scald Head. Syphilis and
Syphilitic affections. Mercurial Disease. Dropsy,
Neuralgia or Tic Douloureux, Debility, Dyspepsia
and Indigestion. Erysipelas, Rose or St. Antho
ny's Fire, and indeed the whole class of com
plaints arising from Impurity of the Blood.
This compound will be found a great promoter
of health, when taken in the spring, to expel the
foul humors which foster in the blood at that sea
son of the year. By the timely expulsion of them
many rankling disorders are nipped in the bud
Multitudes can. bj tho aid of this remedy, spare
themselves from the endurance of foul eruptions
andulcerous sores, through which the system will
strive to rid itself of corruptions, if not assisted to
do this through the natural channels of the body
by an alterative medicine. Cleanse out the vitia
ted blood whenever you find its impurities burst
ing through theskin in pimples, eruptions, or sores;
clcncse it when you find it is obstructed and slug
gish in the veins; cleanse it whenever it is foul,
and yourfcelings will tell you when. Even where
no particular disorder is felt, people enjoy better
health, and live looser, for clcaosinr the blood.
f Keep the body healthy, and all is well ; but with
in is pabulum of lite disordered, there can be
no lasting health. Sooner or later something
must go wrong, and the great machinery of
life is disordered or altogether overthrown.
Sarsaparilla has. and deserves much, the repu
tation, of accomplishing these ends. But the
world has been cgregiously deceived by prepara
tions of it, partly because the drug alone has
not all the virtue that is claimed for it, but more
because many preparations, pretending to be
conccntrrted extracts of it, contain bat little of
the virtue of Sarsaparilla, or any thing else.
During late years the public have been misled
by large bottles, pretending to give a quart of Ex
tract of Sarsaparilla for one dollar. Most of these
have been frauds upon the sick, for they not only
contain little, if any, Sarsaparilla. but often no cu
rative properties whatever. Hence. bitter and pain
ful disappointment has followed thn nse of the va
rious extracts of Sarsaparilla which flood the mar
ket, until the name itself is justly despised, and
has become synonymous with imposition and cheat.
Still we call this compound Sarsaparilla, and
intend to supply such a remedy as shall rescue
tho name from tbc load of obloquy which rests
upon it. And we think we have good ground for
believing it has virtues which are irresistablo by
the ordinary run of the diseases it is intended to
cure. In order to secure their complete eradica
tion from the system, the remedy should be judi
ciously taken according to directions on the bottle.
