CLEARFIELD, PA., JULY 13, 1859.
The weather for a week or ten days has been
very warm here. Yesterday the mercury ran
tip to 96 in the shade.
Onr farmers, during tho past week, have
been busy hay-making, and some grain has
also been cut in the county.
We observe that Mr. Benj. Spackman is ma
king a -start towards erecting a dwelling-house
for himself on Water street.
Wm. Porter, Esq., is building an addition to
his house, and otherwise improving his prop
erty at the upper end of town.
jn onr advertising columns will be found the
tard ot that well-kept and convenient public
house, the U. S. Hotel, Harrisburg, Pa.
On Sunday morning next, 17th inst., in the
Episcopal church, will be preached a dis
course, being a tribute to the memory of the
late Judge Bumside.
On last Wednesday night a-week ago, the
store-room of Ellis Irwin & Sons, in Goshen
township, was entered and about $60 worth of
goods stolen therefrom.
We direct attention to the advertisement or
Mr. G. G. Evans, of Philadelphia, in this pa
per. In our business transactions with Mr. E
vans we have found him prompt, and have no
doubt that he will treat his customers right.
J. II. Galcr, formerly of this county, now of
Tyrone, gives notice that he is prepared to
furnish his old Clearfield friends -with any
quantity of flour at the lowest prices, having
made arrangements with a manufacturing es
tablishment to supply him with the article.
We learn that week before last, Benjamin
Myers, Esq., a citizen of Lock Haven, whilst
lumbering on the Moshannon creek, was so
severely shocked by lightning that he was en
tiiely senseless for about four hours, a.fter
which he revived, and is now as well as ever.
Mr. Editor : In looking over the several
counties of our Senatorial District, I think
Clearfield county entitled to the next Senator,
and would recommend M. A. Frank, Esq., as
a very suitable person for the same, and would
urge his nomination by all fair means.
Yours, GlRARD.
Accident. We learn that yesterday, a son
rf George Logan, of Lawrence township, was
thrown from a load of hay, and had "both bones
of one of his arms broken, 3 or 4 inches above
the wrist. The fractured limb was dressed by
Dr. Woods, and it is thought that in a short
time the lad will be able to use it again.
A solution of whale oil soap will destroy tho
numerous insects that infest trees and shrub
bery at this season of I he year. Dissolve the
soap in warm water, making "suds" of medi
um strength, and sprinkle the leaves with a
syringe. This specific is sure death to the
caterpillar, miller, and the army of ravagers
that destroy the foliage. 2iow is the time for
its application.
Simmer Dnixt. To make Sherbet, take
eight ounces of carbonate of soda ; six ounces
rf tartaric acid ; two pounds of loaf sugar,
finely powdered ; three drachms of essence of
lemon. Let the powders be very dry. Mix
them intimately, and keep them for use in a
wide-mouthed bottle, closely corked. Put
two good-sized tea-spoonfuls into a tumbler ;
lonr in half a pint of cold water, stir briskly
and drink off.
On Monday, July 4th, the election of officers
and organization of the "Anderson's Creek
Fublic Koad and Navigation Company," took
place. John Patton was elected President ;
Wm. Irvin, John DuBois, John Brubaker,
Charles Blanchard and John Irvin, Managers ;
sind Win. McBride, Treasurer and Secretary.
The capital stock of the company is S 5,000,
all subscribed, and near $1,200 paid in at the
organization. At a meeting of the-Managers,
it was resolved to proceed at once to make the
road. A proposition was made by Messrs
THar.ehard & C and DuBois & Co.. to clear
out the creek and keep it in order, for the
tolls, leaving all the money subscribed to be
expended on the road. If this proposition is
accepted, and it probably will be, it will ena
ble the company to make a good road to
Moore's Mill in Union township, thus giving
t he people in that section a convenient out- let,
over a road that can be travelled both sum
tner and winter.
SrxDAT School Celebration. The 83d
Anniversary of American Independence, was
celebrated by the citizens and Sunday School
Scholars of the Bradford and Tleasart Hill

JOHN irvin:
Curwensville. Pa., May 13. 1859.
SCROFULA, OR KING'S EVIL, is a con
stitutional disease, a taint, or corruption of the
blood, by which this fluid becomes vitiated, weak,
and poor. Being in the circulation, it pervades
the whole body, and may burst out in disease en
any part of it.. No organ is free from its attack,
nor is there one which it may not destroy. The
scrofulous taint is variously caused by mercurial
disease, low living, or disordered or unhealthy
food, impure air, filth and filthy habits, the depres-'
sing vices, and, above all, by the venereal infec
tion. Whatever be its origin, it is hereditary in the
constitution, descending from parents "to children
unto the third and fourth generation;" indeed,' it
seems to be the rod of Him who says, "I will visit
the iniquities of the fathers upon their children."
It effects commence by deposition from the blood
of corrupt and ulcerous matter, whioh, in the lungs,
liver, and internal organs, is termed tubercles: in
the glands, swellings; and on the surface, erup
tions or sores. This foul corruption, which gen
ders in the blood, depresses the energies of life, s
that scrofulous constitutions not only suffer from
scrofulous complaints, but they have far less power
to withstand tbe attacks of other diseases ; conse
quently, vast numbers perish by disorders which,
although not scrofulous in their nature, are still
rendered fatal by this taint in the system. Most
of the consumption which deccininates the human
family has its origin directly in this scrofulous con
tamination ; and many destructive diseases of the
liver, kidneys, brain, and indeed, of all the organs,
arise from or are aggravated by the same cause;
One quarter of all our people are scrofulous ; their
persons are invaded by this lurking contamination,
and their health is undermined by it. To cleanse
it from the system we must renovate the blood by
an alterative medicine. and invigorate it by healthy
food and exercise. Such a medicine we supply in
Ayers Compound Extract of Sarsaparilla,
tho most effectual remedy which the medical skill
of our times can devise for this every where' pre
vailing and fatal malady. It is combined from tho
most active retucdials that have been discovered
for the expurgation of this foul disorder from tho
blood, and the rescue of the system from its des
tructive consequences. Hence it should be employ
ed for the cure of not only scrofula, but also those
other affections which arise from it, such a Erup
tive and Skin Diseases, St. Anthony's Fire, Rose,
or Erysipelas, Pimples, Pustules, Blotches, Blains
and Boils, Tumors, Tetter and Salt Rheum, Scald
Head, Ringworm, Rheumatism, Syphilitic . and
Mercurial Diseases, Dropsy, Dyspepsia, Vcbility,
and, indeed, all Complaints arising from Vitiated
or Impure Blood. The popular belief in "impuri
ty of the blood" is founded in truth, for scrofula is
a degeneration of the blood. The practical purpose
and virtue of tho Sarsaparilla is to purify and re-,
gencrato this vital fluid, without which sound'
health is impossible iu contaminated constitutions.
AVER'S CATHARTIC PILLS. or all the purpo
ses of a family physic, arc so composed that dis
ease within the range of their action can rarelv
withstand or evado them. Their penetrating pro
perties search, and cleanse, and invigorate every
portion of the human erganism, correcting its di
eased action, and restoring its healthy vitalities.
As a eonscquenco of these properties, the inalid
who is bowed down with pain or physical debil
ity is astonished to find his health or energy re
stored by a remedy at once so simple and' inviting.
Not only do they cure the every-day complaints
of every body, but also many formidable and dan
gerous diseases. The agent below named is pleas
ed to furnish gratis my American Almanac, con
taining certificates of their cures and directions
for their use in, the following complaints: Co.
tiveness, Heartburn, Headache, arising fnnd dis
ordered Stomach, Nausea, Indigestion. Pain in.
and Morbid Inaction of the Bowels, Flatidtn'ry,
Ios of Appetite, Jaundice, and other kindred
complaints, arising from a low state of tho body
or obstruction of its functions.
AYER'S CHERRY PECTORAL, for the rapid
cure of Coughs, Colds, Influenza, Hoarsurss.
Croup, Bronchiti, Incipient Consumption, and for
the relief of Consumptive Patients in advanced
stages of die disease. So wide is the field of ite
usefulness and so numerous are the cases of iU
cures, that almost every section of country abounds
in persons publicly known, who have been restor
ed from alarming and even desperate diseases of
the lungs by its use. When once tried, its superi
ority over every other medicine of its kind is too
apparent to escape observation, and where its vir
tues are known, the public no longer hesitato what
antidotes to employ for tho dictrcsiing and danger
ous affections of the pulmonary organs that are in
cident to our climate. AVbite many infer.' reme
dies thrust upon the community have failed ami
beer, discarded, this has gained friends bv evorv
trial, conferred benefits on the afflicted they car,
never forget, and produced eurca too nuiuerou"
and too remarkable ever to be forgotten '
