THE JOTJENAL,
CLEARFIELD, PA., FEB. 0, 1859.
Sraisa Elections. Friday, the 18th day of
February, is the time fixed by law for the
holding of the Spring elections for Borough
and Township officers.
Retvrsed. II. L. Henderson, formerly
this county, who lost one of his logs by an ac
cident in California, reached Philadelphia last
week on bis way hither.
I'kozes Feet. A gentleman, residing near
this place, who suffered much from frozen
feet, informed hs that he removed the pain by
using a bottle of Dnvall'a Galvanic Oil. This
is worth remembering.
Tnnr-ERASCE Meeti.sc. A meeting of the
Washingtotiian Temperance Society will bu

Sxow, Timber. Haulixg, &c. Since we is-,
ened our last paper we have had a fine fall of
snow in this county, and our lumbermen havo
l.wcn taking advantage of it to haul square
timber, boards, shingles, &c, preparatory to
rafting, to the banks of the streams. If the
mew should reraain on the ground for several
weeks, most of tho lumber will be hauled ;
but fears are entertained that this will not be
the case, as the weather is unusually changea
ble this whiter. P. As we go to press this
morning it is raining.
Hibernian PnfotscE. An Irishman In W.
township, some timo since discovered his-hc-usc
to be on fire, but could not get at
it for want of a trap door in the roof; and
not having a ladder at hand his wife suggested
that a hole be cut in the root lor the purpose
of getting at the fire, which was yet confined
to a, small space around tho stove pipe, when
Eat replied, No, f aith : I'm no gin' to spile
the bonny roof!" So starting to another
house for a ladder, and sending his wife a
quarter of a mile for help, he lelt the "bonny
roof burn to ashes.
licensed liquor seller in the ward. Doubt
less, there are many p-isons in dilli-rei.t sec
tions of the country who are engaged in sel
ling liquors without license ; and yet, because
they are "good fellows," the officers of thu
law permit them to pursue their illegal iraflic
with impunity, and make themselves liable to
indictment for misdemeanor and perjury. It
might be well enough for constables to keep
this in mind.
Guand Jlhy Presentment. We had inten
ded to give last week the presentment of the
Grand Jury at the recent term of our County
Courts, but it was unavoidably crowded out.
After setting forth that action bad been taken
on ten bills, they remark t
And whilo on this part of the subject the
Grand Inquest cannot help expressing their
regret that quite a number of trifiing cases
are constantly returned to the Court by the
diilcrent Justices of the Peace; and they do
hereby present the same as an evil, and res
pectfully ask that the Court use all proper
means to abate the nuisance. This grand in
quest are well aware of the popular doctrine,
that the people in their local capacity have a
light to "regulate their own allairs iu their
owj way." This, as well as every other doc
trine or policy which attempts to approach a
standard of justice and equal rights, has boun
daries we dare not o'er leap, without becom
ing transgressors of that very stamlatd of prin
ciple wo would seem to appreciate. And
while in our present capacity we, in common
with the rest of our fellow citizens, regret ve
ry much that we have often been put to shame,
m witnessing in a number of instauces that
several of our conservators of the peace, were
so miserably intoxicated and profane that we
deem them a disgrace to our good old Com
monwealth if not to nearer associations, oth
ers of the same class prostitute their position
by using the name ot the Commonwealth in
bringing frivilous actions against persons
have them arrested and brought before them
upon - insignificant charges with a great arrav
of dignity aud authority ; but afterwards they
labor with great zeal to have them quashed
and settled contrary to all law upon the sub
ject. Others again, as above cited, often an
noy this Honorable Court with like petty char
ges, which are of no interest to tho court, nor
of any benefit to the morals of the communi
ties in which they originate. These as w:ell as
other apparently insignificant matters are
preying as a disease upon the commonwealth,
and if no check is offered by those who hold
the remedy, we will had that our virtue will
saon be gone.

Xoi worthy. Scdeni.iry and weak -chested
persons should breathe long and deep in the
cold bracing air of these winter mornings. A
few cubic foet taken with a relish, will be
worth any amount of opiates and astringents,
for quickening and healing the vital organs.
Inhale it vigorously and copiously. Throw
off your mufflers and conforters, and allow the
air to dance around the chest and threat. Do
not fer taking cold this you cannot do un
less you expose yourself while in a perspira
tion. Do not go naked by any means but)
keep oil so much rubbish for the protection oi
the chest step briskly, aud breathe as though
you relished the vital, life giving power.
Vor.rn a Trial. Everybody and his wife
nad particularly his little folks love the good
oM-lashionod dough-nuts, or !nut-cakes," or
cre'iers," or whatever name you call them.
Ikii many persons are troubled with "weak di
gestion," (dyspepsia,) and the large amount
of lard or grease absorbed by tho said dough
nuts doo not always "set well," but produces
a "rising in tho stomach." V ben this is the
ess try the following invention: The dough
nuts being prepared as usual, just before Im
mersing them into the hot fat, plump them
into a well beaten egg. This will give a thin
coating of albumen, which will keep out tho
grease effectually. Furthermore, this coating
retains the moisture, end keeps them in good
condition much lonror.
Boys. Somebody says, boys, when they are
Lovs, are queer enough ! How many ridicu
lous notions they have, and what singular de
wires, which, in after life, change and shape
themselves into characteristics Who re
vnembers when he would have sold his birth
tf ght for a rocking-horse, and his new suit of
clot lies for a monkey ? Who forgets the sweet
laced girl, older than himself, against whose
golden hair he leaned and wept his grief a-
way I Who recollects, when the thoughts of
iie;ng a circus rider appeared greater than to
be President ; and how jealously he watched
the little fellows that wore spangled jackets
and turned somersets, and prayed to become
Jike them. If memory preserve not these ca
pacities, or something similar, tho boy is lost
in the man.
Vai.enti.ve D a v. On Monday next is Valen
tine day. This day, it is generally conceded,
i to be devoted to tho interchange of bilUl
Joux, especially between lovers, and no doubt,
many nice and suggestive valentines are trans
jiiitted end received. Mostly, however, mere
comical carricatures are sent, intended to an
noy and offend, rather than to please and sug
gest friendship, and therefore amounts to
nothing. If, however, this day were devoted
to soino useful object, much good might re
suit from its observance. For instance ; sup
pose you owe a neighbor a small sum of money,
and you would enclose a dollar or two in
an envelope instead oi one of these comical
ion-8ensicals, would it not be much better ?
Triend, think of this suggestion, and we feel
assured that your Valentino will be accepted
with thanks ; and perhaps you may be the
means of preventing much suSering, by thus
devoting the day to a good pnrpose, instead
of nonsense. . .

various boroughs and townships are required

AVER'S SARSAPARILLA. a compound
remedy, in which wo have labored to produce
the most ciloetiial alterative that can be made. It
is a concentrated extract of Para Snrsaparill, ao
combined with other substances of still greater al
terative power a to afford an effective antidote for
the diseases Sanuparill.i is reputed to euro. I-is
believed that such a remeJy is wanted by those
w ho suffer from trnmouseoniplainu, and llta.1 one
which will accomplish their cure must prove of
immense service to this large class of our uQietml
fellow citizens. How completely this com pound will
do it has been proTen by experiment on many of tho
worst cases to be found of the following complaints :
Scrofula and Scrofulous eomplaiuts, Eruptions
and Eruptiva Diseases, Ulcer", Pimples. Blotches,
Tumors. Salt Rheum, Scald Head, Syphilis and
Syphilitic affections. Mercurial Disease, Dropsy,
Neuralgia cr 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 htalth, when tak?n 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 aro nipped in the bud
Multitudes can. b tho aid of this remedy, spare
themselves from tho endurance of foul eruptions
and ulccrons sres. 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 ubcnctcr you find its impuviuvs burst
ing through the skin in pimples, eruptions, or sores;
cleanse it when yon find it is obstructed and slug
gish in tho veins; cleanse it whenever it is foul,
and yourfeclings will tell yon when. Even where
r.o particular disorder is felt, people el.joy better
health, and live longer, for cleansing the blood.
Keep the body healthy, and all is well; but with
this pabulum of life disordered, tiiero can be
no lastirg health. Sooner or later something
must go wrong, and tho great machinery of
life is disordered or altogether overthrown.
Sarsaparilia has. and deserves much, tho repu
tation, of accomplishing these ends. But the
world "has been egrcgiously 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
concentrrted extracts of it, contain but little of
the virtue of Sarsaparilla, or any thin; else.
During late years tho puhlia 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 tho sick, for they not only
contain little, if any, Sarsapariila. but nfteu n cu
rative properties whatever, ilcnce.biittr and pain
ful disappointment has followed the use of the va
rious extracts of Sarsaparilla which Rood the mar
ket, until the name itself is justly despised, und
has become synonymous with imposition and cheat.
Still wo call this compound S.irsnparilla, and
intend to supply such a remedy as shall rescue
the name from the load of obloquy which rests
upon it. And wo think wo have good ground for
believing it has virtues which are irresistr.ble.by
the ordinary run of tho diseases it is intended to
cure. In order to secure their complete eradica
tion from the system, the remedy should bo judi
ciously taken according to directionson the bottle.
