THE JOUBML.
CLEARFIELD, PA., APRIL 27, 1S59.
PUBLIC MEETING.
Id accordance with tbe call of the People's
State Committee, the opponents of the Na
tional Administration, in Clearfield county,
re requested to hold a meeting at the Court
II ouso in Clearfield, on Monday evening of
Court week, May the lGth, 1839, to elect dele
gates to represent them in the IJarrisburg con
vention, which is to meet on the 8th June'.
Several additional writs will be f onnd in the
Sheriff's Sales (his week.
The attention of Dealers in Feed and Flonr
is invited to the advertisement of Mr.J. B. Si
mons, of Spruce Creek.
TVe last week mentioned the receipt of a
fine stock of Seasonable Goods by Wm. F. Ir
win. His advertisement appears in another
teolumn of to-day's paper.
If you want to know where to buy flour,' ba
ton, groceries, dry goods of every descrip
tion, hardware, &c., consult the advertisement
of Richard Mossop, in another column.
We direct attention to the advertisement of
M essrs. Radebuugh & Flanigan, who have re
ceived a fresh supply of articles at their Eat
ing Houo in the basement cf Merrell & Car
ter's building, Second St., Clearfield.
On Monday afternoon. Rice, the "old seven
day," was put to prison for haranguing about
the streets in a boisterous and abusive man
ner, but was set at liberty again on Tuesday
morning. The individuals who had been in
dulging in strychnine, and were howling in
the streets on Monday night, should have 'been
treated in a similar manner.
Sxow Stohm. On last Saturday, 23d April,
we hud a regular old-fashioned snow-storm in
this county. At some places the snow attain
ed a depth of 10 to lCJnches at others, from
4 to C inches and drifted so much in several
localities as to obstruct the passage of wheeled
vehicles. More snow fell on that day than on
any one during the past winter.
Divine Services. By divine permission the
Rev. T. R. Focht, of York connty, will preach
in the Lutheran church in Clearfield Town, on
the first day of May next at half past 10 o'
clock in the morning, and at 3 o'clock in the
afternoon in the Baptist Church in Curvns
ville ; on Monday evening, M ay 2d, at early
candle lightj in Luthersburg, and on Tuesday
the Sd, in the evening, in New Millport.
We will nest week commence tho publica
tion of a Sketch of Clearfield County, in which
will Tie - introduced its early settlement, de
scriptions of some of the settlers, and an ac
count of some of their adventures. The
sketch will occupy several weeks in publish
ing, and as it may contain matters for future
reference, those who are thinking ot subscri
bing to our paper, had better do so at once.
Tho things related will be authentic.
An Improvement. We are pleased to see
that the school-room in the Academy building
lias been neatly papered, new seats procured,
and other improvements made, under the di
rection of Rev. Mr. Galloway, who has under
taken the general supervision of the school.
A substantial lence, to enclose the ground be
longing to tbe Academy, and keep cattle and
hogs off of the samo, lias also biren put up.
The school will bo opened next Tuesday.
I.ntBER. The rapid inviting of tho snow of
last Saturday li.is produced a fine rafting
freshet in the West Branch and its tributaries,
and during the past two days quite a number
of raits have passed down the River. The
price of lumber Leing good this spring, and
the supply falling short of the demand, has had
the cflect of infusing new lia'e into tho busi
ness, and it is estimated that about luO ratts
have been constructed and will be run to mar
ket on the present risj.
On Monday afternoon, John Johnston, an
eld "culled passon" of our town, drove the
horse and Luggy of Judge Barrett uito the
river, above the bridge, where a raft was ly
ing, for the purpose of washing the buggy.
As soon as they passed the end of the raft, the
horse and vehicle wero being carried away by
the current, but were fortunately stopped by
some men on the raft, the harness cut loose,
the horse led out of the water and the buggy
pulled up on the raft. John got off with a
good ducking and a bad fright.
Feom Utah. -The New York papers con
tain a mass of correspondence from Utah,
from which we learn that the Mormon system
Is breaking up. The approaching dispersion
of the saints is confidently predicted some
time next month, aud Brigham Young's dom
ination is said already to be at an end. J udge
Cradlebaugh had delivered a highly interest
ing charge concerning tbe enforcement of the
Jaw, and its vindication throughout the Ter
ritory. Sharp Practice. A New York broker,
undertaking to turn a dishonest penny, last
week, was "hoist by his own petard." A man
offered him $5,000 in gold dust which he said
had been stolen, lor half its value. Tho
Lroker seized the opportunity, weighed the
lust, found it all right, and paid over the
money. Almost immediately a professed
policeman came in, said he bad ascertained
that be was in possession of a certain parcel
of gold dust, and most arrest him and seize
the dust. The broker was much alarmed, and
finally ofiered tha officer eight hundred dol
lars in bills to release him and keep mum.
The ofler was accepted and the money paid.
The broker then concluded it was best to get
rid of tha gold as soon as possible, but on at
tempting to sell It, fonni it was only coppor
filings. The policemen was also bogus, and
lbs broker finds himself minus $3,200, which
should be aeration to him not to deal hereaf
ter In stolen goods.
