THE JOTJMAL.
CLEARFIELD, PA., JAN. 19, 1859.
Revival. We understand that the Metho
disti are having quite a revival of religion in
ioshen township at the present time, and that
many persons are being converted. -
Am Improvkmkjct. We are pleased to learc
that onr triend Cel. A. B. Shaw has been mak
ing quite an improvement at ShawsviHe. by
erecting a fine store-house, where he is pre
pared to supply his old customers, and as
many new ones as possible, with goods at the
lowest rates. The Col. being a clever fellow,
cannot fail to do a large and profitable business.
We have. been informed that a malignant
disease is at the present time prevailing in
and abont Luthcrsburg in this county, which
baffles the skill of physicians. Three children
have recently died, and some ten others are
still sick, and it is feared that the attack may
prove fatal to a portion of them, at least. The
disease, with few exceptions, is confined to
children.
Re iDi.se bt Ca.nplelight. Place the can
dle behind you, that the rays may pass over
,3'onr shoulder on to the book. This will re
lieve the eyes. Looking into a fire (particu
larly a coal one) is very injurious to the eyes.
Tho stimulus of light and heat united, soon
destroys the eyes. Thoso who wish to pre
serve their sight, should preserve their gener
al health by correct habits, and give their eyes
just work enough, with a due degree of light.
Fixgeh err orr and healed os AOAix.-Sornc
three or four weeks ago, Mr. G. W. McCully,
of Bcccaria township, cut one of his fingers
.ff with an axe, and after going to the house
lie returned to tho woodyard, where the accident
happened, picked np the part of the finger
which had been cut off, and alter cleaning oft"
the dirt which adhered to it, replaced it on
che finger and bound it on. It is now healing
rapidly, the cut off portion having united Orm
Jy, and will be almost as useful as if nothing
had occurred to it. This fact might be worth
remembering, by persons who may have the
misfortune to meet with a similar accident.
CLIPPINGS AN" f CBIBBLINGS.
e PROTEST.
The following protest, against the letting of
the contract for a new Court House on the 29th
January, 1S39, lias been presented to the Com
missioners of Clearfield County. All the sig
natures, most of which we are obliged to omit,
were procured on Saturday and Monday. We
understand that other naraes are being added
to the list.
To John Irwin, George Karhard and William
MeCracken, Esq's, Commissioners of Clear
Jield CokuIi.
Gextlemex: Understanding that you pro
pose letting a contract, on January 29th, tor
the erection of a new Court House, we res
jM CtfulIy, but earnestly, protest against such
action.
You are aware that two projects are now be
fore the people. Firt, the erection of a new
rounty out of parts of this and adjoining coun
ties, to be called Pine, which, if effected, will
cut ofl a large scope of territory and largely
decrease our legal business. And Second,
the removal of tho seat of Justice from its
present site. Large meeting in favor ot re
moval have beta held, and petitions circnlat
. and numerously signed ; but the friends of
which are awaiting legislative action as to
Pine county.
We, therefore, protest against a letting at
this time, fr the following reasons :
1st. If "the erection of Tine county has be
come a fixed f ct," as many believe, then the
present buildings will be sufficient to accom
modate the county with its decreased limits,
and there is no necessity for putting the coun
ty to the cost of erecting buildings.
" 2nd. That if the removal is ofR-ctcd after
felting, he county will bo liable for damages
o the contractors for breach of contract,
3rd. That the hairiness of the times and
Ligh price of provisions at present, must in
crease the nmonnt at which the buildings will
Ik: let; and the same facts should cause you
to pause before adding further burthens upon
ns. and rather seek some mode of lessening
our rate of taxation, instead of fastening, in
great haste, a debt upon us which, with the
nccrneing interest, will not be liquidated dur
iug the uext 20 years.

the most effectual alterative that ean be made. It
is a concentrated extract of Para Sarsaparilla. so
combined with other substances of still greater al
terative power as to anord an effective antidote Tor
the diseases araaparilla is repnted to cure. It is
believed that such a remedy is wanted by those
who suffer from Strumous complaints, and that one
wbich will accomplir-n their cure most prove ot
immense service to this large class of our afflicted
fellow citizen. How completely thiscomponnd will
do it has been proTen by experiment on many of the
worst eases to be tound ot tne tollowingeomplaints:
Scrofula and Scrofulous complaints. Eruptions
and Eruptive Diseases, Ulcers, Pimples, Blotches.
Tumors, Salt Kbeum, Scald Head, Syphilis and
yphilitic 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 htallh, when token in tho 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 ttie bud
Multitudes can. bv tho aid of this remedy, spare
themselves from the endurance of foul eruptions
and ulcerous 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
bv an altcrativo medicine. Cleanse out the vitia
ted blood whenever you find its impurities burst
ing through the skin in pimples, eruptions, or sores;
cleanse it when you find it is obstructed and slug
gish in the veins; cleanse it whenever it is foul,
and yonr feelings will tell you when. Even where
no particular disorder is felt, people enjoy -better
health, and live longer, for cleansing the blood.
Keep the body healthy, and all is well; but with
this pabulum or Iito disordcrea, mere can ue
no lasting health. Sooner or later something
must go wrong, and tne great macumcry oi
life is disordered or altogether overthrown.
Sarsaparilla has. and deserves much, the repu
tation, of accomplishing these ends, nut me
world has been egrcgiously deceived by prepara
tions of it, partly because tho 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 but littlo of
tho 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. Jience, outer and pain
ful disappointment has followed the use 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 rescuo
the name from the load of obloquy which rests
upon it. And we think we have good ground for
believing it na virtues wnicn are irresisuioic oy
the ordinary run of the diseases, it is intended to
cure. In order to secure tneir complete eraaica
tion from the system, the remedy should be judi
ciously taken according to directions on the oottlc
