THE JOUENAL.
CLEARFIELD, PA., APRIL 13, 1859.
John Guelich advertises for a Journeyman
Cabinet-maker." .
The growing grain in our ce-unty, so far as
we can learn, presents a fine appearance.
II you want to purchase cheap and good ar
tides of any description whatever, consult the
advertising columns of a newspaper and you
can there ascertain who keeps them.
The County Register gives notice that a
number of accounts are on file in his office
and will be presented to the next Orphans'
Court for confirmation and allowance.
Our townsman, Daniel Benner, in order to
keep np with the spirit of the age, has pro
cured a snug little engine to drive his lathe,
and will soon bo turning out w ork as fast as
steam can make it. - . .
On Monday night, a storm of rain and hail
passed over a part of this county, blowing
down . trees and scattering fences. We have
not heard of any serious damage having been
done to buildings.
Persons wanting to purchase Cabinet Ware,
are directed to the advertisement of Mr. John
Guelich, who keeps on band, or will make to
order, any articles in his line of business, at
the most reasonable prices.
The River, in consequence of the heavy
rains of Sunday and Monday nights, rose yes
terday to a good rafting stage, thus giving our
lumbermen an opportunity of running what
few rafts did not get down on the last rise, to
market. Several tatts passed down yesterday
and to-day.
A Banki.vo House is Clearfield. By re
ferring to our advertising columns, it will be
seen that a Banking and Collection Office has
been opened in our town by Messrs. Leonard,
Finney Sc Co. This w ill doubtless be a great
convenience to the community at large, as
well as to the business men of this region.
Such as wish to have notes and drafts dis
counted will not be compelled, as heretofore,
to go elsewhere, at considerable expense, and
merchants and others dealing in the cities, can
deposit their money here, procure bills of ex
change, and make their pnper payable at home.
A couple members of the firm are well known
in our county as reliable and responsible men,
and the others have the reputation of being
men of large capital and good credit. They
will no doubt secure the confidence of the en
tire community, and soon have a large amount
of business to transact.

Clearfield, April 12, 1859.
Petersons' Cueap Edition or Waterly
Xovlls. We have this day received Rob
Roy, by Sir Walter Scott, being the third vol
ume of T. B. Peterson & Brothels' new and
c2:er.p weekly issue of the Wavcrley .Novels,
by Sir Walter Seott. Giving truthful deline
ations of people, character and manners ever
upholding the cause of religion, morality and
virtue, they should be welcome at every fire
side where these precepts are taught. The
great barrier, heretofore, to the introduction
of these works, has been the high price at
which they have been held, but this objection
is being now overcome, by the publication of
these works of Scott in such a form and at
such a low price as to bring them within the
means of all persons whatever. To Messrs.
T. B. Peterson & Brothers, of Philadelphia,
more than all other publishers are we indebt
ed for this new feature in American literature.
The works of Charles Dickens, Charles Lever,
Mrs. Southworth, and many other popular
writers, havobeen Issued from their press in a
cheap form, and their last enterprise is giving
to the public, the works of Sir Walter Scott,
aoraplete and unabridged, at the very low
price of 25 cents for each work, or the whole
series for Five Dollars. The edition embraces
the whole of the author's works, and will be
contained ia 25 volumes, one of which will
be issued on each succeeding Saturday, until
complete. A full set will be forwarded, ree
of Postage, by Mail, to any part of the United
States, to any one, by the publishers, on send
ing a remittance of fiive dollars to them, for
the twenty-six volumes. At this low price,
all persons should possess themselves of a
sett, and we would take this occacion to ad
rise all of our readers to make a remittance
of Five Dollars at once, per first mail, to T. B.
Peferson & Brothers, Philadelphia, for the
entire sett, who will send them complete to
any one, frit of postage, on receipt of that
euni.
A few days since, Mrs. Brickley, of Read
ing, was terribly, and it is feared fatally, burn
ed by tho explosion of a fluid lamp.

TTIE "GREAT REPUBLIC" MONTH
LY. To the Public, the Bool and PrrinJ.
ical Trade, and the Pre.os. Wc have the honor t
announce that we shall issue on or about the 1st of
December, 1353. so as to be in season to command
the early attention of the public and periodical
trade, the first num'tr of a new Illustrated Jfj-f
azine. to be called The 'Great Repuitie' Monthly.
It is intended to make this magazine superior
in every respect to anything ever before issued in
this country. The general scope of its character
can best be understood by its name. It will be thor
oughly national in no wise sectarian, and wholly
impersonal. It will offer tc the writers and think
ers of this Union a common field, where they can
meet on the highest ground of cotemporary liter
ature. It will aim to gather about it every varie
ty of intellect. The range of articles will be a.
wide one, covering, among other grounds, Essays
Sketches. Humerons Tales. Stories, iruini-w.o'i -!
cidents. Reviews, Critiques! Biographies, ScrentiSa
nrucics, .iraveis. xaoie Jam, Dramas, Fo!itis
Poems, Ballads. Stanzas. Sonnets. Musi.. CcrLZ.
pondence. Gossip, etc.. etc. The Magatine will be
profusely illustrated in tho highest style of wool
engraving. The Literary department will present
greater variety.combined with more thorough ex
cellence, it is believed, than ever before offered ia
the American public in a single periodical. Each
number will contain an original niece of mn.;
composed expressly for this wor't. Of the superior
exeei.ence of the Magazine in every respect, and
of the certainty of its permanent success, very
little more need be eaid. The Terms and 1
conditions of the magazine will be as follows:
or urn Ihere will be two volumes a vear, of
about 700 royal octavo pages each, commencing in
January and July, and endfnr in Jnnn snrl
