CLEARFIELD, PA., OCT. 2G, 1859.
Jlonx G. Cai.v, Esq., Smith's Mills, is au
thorized to receive subscriptions and adver
tisements for the Journal, and receipt for all
ninnies paid him on accounts due this otlicc.
We direct attention to the card of Mr. Rus
sell JIcMurray in our advertising columns.
Sealed proposals for erecting a church in
Pennsvillcwill be received until the 10th Nor.
by the building committee. See notice.
St. Asdrew's Church. We are requested
to state that on and after Sabbath the SOth
Inst., evening services will be held in the E
piscopal church in this place the morning
services as heretofore.
Sxow. Last Friday and Saturday a sufii
cient quantity of snow to whiten the ground,
fell in this region. Though the atmosphere
lias been cool ever since, the judications arc
now in favor of fine weather.
Win. F. Irwin has received his stock of Fall
& Winter Goods, at his store on Market St,
His goods have been selected with a view of
supplying the wants of the community, and
will be disposed of at moderate prices. Ilis
advertisement will appear in our next issue.
The attention of persons wishing to purchase
Flour, Bacon, Groceries, Cheese, etc., is di
rected to the advertisement of Wni. M.Gorm
ty, Xo. 271 Liberty street, Pittsburgh, Pa.
.Mr. G. docs a large business, and sells articles
in his line on the most advantageous terms.
Isjcrek. Last Saturday forenoon, as a boy
of about 11 years of nge, son of Mr. Jonas
1'ownall of Bradford township, was approach
ing town from the cast, the wagon on which
Jio was seated ran into a rut, jolted him off",
and severely bruised him about the body in
consequence of coming in contact with one of
the wheels. He was brought to town, and, af
ter dressing his wounds, was takca home.
Oa Friday night, the 21st inst., Geo. Wea
ver, aa aged and esteemed citizen of Brady
township, died from injuries received some
six weeks ago. Ac that time, he and his wile
.v.arted for church in a buggy. Soon alter,
li.e horse took fright and ran off, throwing
Mr. and Mrs. Weaver out of the vehicle, the
head and side of the former striking the cor
icr of a rail fence, breaking several cf his
r.bs, and otherwise injuring him much. He
'.irigerci on in this condition until death re
..eved him of his sufferings at the time stated
a'jove. Mrs. Weaver also sustained some in
juries, but has recovered from the same.
OiR BoHorr.u seems to participate in the
.-nil it of tl.e age in which we live. Where the
of the traveler formerly was greeted by a
itrw log cabins, now stands a neat and flourish
ing town. Year alter year improvements Lave
5 ten added until It has reached its present
and this is but the commencement of
v.-i;ut it is going to be. The accumulation of
.vealth affords its citizens better means to add
:o its improvements, and the time is net very
i;stant when Clearfield may be considered one
A the most thriving places in the interior of
; Vunsylvania. The resources of the surround
' country are immense, and when it gets
.e facilities of exportation which other pla--..-i
of importance now enjoy, it will be en
S.Iied largely by them. It is, however, to be
fretted that so little care has been taken in
-t-card to the laying out of the lots and streets.
As bug as property is of little value and the
: i. sidings riot costly, people do not dispute a
L; tit a few feet of grouud ; but whenever the
v-iuo increases, as it lias done already, dis
; utes may arise which will cost more than a
re-survey of the whole place. It would, per
haps, net be amiss to suggest to our citizens
that something should be done in regard to it.
The expense will be nothing compared with
the difficulties which may arise ii it remains
in its present condition. We trust, therelore,
that the Borough authorities will take the mat
ter in hand and employ a competent surveyor
to make a correct return of the different lots
and streets, so that hereafter no mistakes will
be made in the location of buildings.
H. D. M'George's Suixgle Machine. This
t.uly great invei tion is now exhibiting at
.Spencer's Mills, Bridgeport, a mile west of
Cuj-wensville, where every person at all inter
ested in lumbering, should go and see for
himself. With 4 horse power, fifteen to twen
ty thousand beautiful shingles can be made in
12 hours, more perfect than can possibly be
ione by haud. Any kind of wood will an
swer, so it is sound, and presented to the saw
as to cut lengthwise, or with the grain of
tlie wood. The shingle is sawed, planed and
"hiished at one operation. There is no hum
i ug about this machine. All that is required
a visit to it to convince every intelligent
man of its utility as a great labor-saving ma
chine, and one that must eventually take the
place of all and every other keowu methods
it making shingles. Parties who have Umber
can with one of these .machines make more
niouey than by any other way of preparing it
for market. Men -iu other locations, less fa
vored for the business, have in the short space
A three coniha paid all expense fora mill
ad right to use. $20 per day can be cleared
with all cavj. Shingles from 14 to 28 or 30
inches long, of any desired breadth or thick
ness, as well as barrel heading, staves, &c,
can be made on the mill by any person, at
Crst trial. For further information respecting
ti:e terms for machines and rights, please call

sufferers from debility, among Americans, than can
be found among any other civilized nation. Tbc
reason is obvious. We take too little exercise. and

can do no good. Whatis required is just such a
wu.o auu mvigoraior as ur. J. Hostetter has given
to the world, in bis crlebrated ''Bitters" The weak
and nervous denizen of the counting-house, the ex-
uausix-u toner upon ine stiop-board, and the pros
trated student of the midnisrht limn, have found a
wonderful regenerator in the 'Bittera," and prefer
ii w more pretentious, cut less emcacious medi
cines. But it should not be forgotten that the a

frame which is merely debilitated, is equally pow

HOSTETTER'S STOMACH BITTERS.
It is a fact that, at some period, every mem
ber of the human family is subject to disease or
disturbance of the bodily functions; but, with the
aid of a good tonic and the exercise of plain com
mon sense, they may bo able so to regulate the sys
tem as to secure permanent health. In order to ac
complish this desired object, the true eourso to pur
sue is certainly that which will produce a natural
state of things at the leasthazard of vital strength
and life. For this purpose, Dr. Hostetter has in
troduced lo this country a preparation bearing his
name, which is not a ucw medicine, but one that
has been tried for years, giving satisfaction to all
who have used it. The Bitters operate powerfully
upon the stomach, bowels, and liver, restoring them
to a healthy and vigorous action, and thus, by
the simple process of strengthening nature, ena
ble the system to triumph over disease.
For the cure of Dyspepsia, Indigestion, Nausea,
Flatulency, Loss of Appetite, or Bilious complaints,
arising from a morbid inaction of the Stomach or
Bowels, producingCramps,Dysentary.Cholic,Chol
era Morbus, Ac, these Bitters have no equal.
Diarrhoea, dysentery or flux, so generally con
tracted by new settlers, and caused principally by
the change of water and diet, will be speedily reg
ulated by a brief use of this preparation. Dyspep
sia, a disease which ls-probably more prevalent,
in all its various forms, than any other, and the
cause of which may always be attributed to de
rangements of the digestive organs, can be cured
without fail by using HOSTETIER'S STOMACH
BITTERS, as per directions on tho bottle. For
this disease every physician will recommend Bit
ters of some kind; then why not use an article
known to be infallible ? AH nations have their
Bitters, as a preventive of disease and strengthen
er of the system in general; and among them all
there is not to be found a more healthy people
thau the Germans, from whom this preparation em
anated, based upon scientific experiments which
have tended to prove the value of this great pre
paration iu the scale of medical science
Fever and AorE. This try ins and provokins
disease, which fixes its relentless grasp on the bo
dy of man, reducing him to a mere shadow in a
short time, and rendering him physically and men
tally useless, can bo driven troui the bodv by the
uso of HOSTETTER'S RENOWNED BITTER'S.
Further, none of the above-stated diseases can bo
contracted, even in exposed situations, if the Bit
ters are used as per directions. And as they nei
ther create nausea nor offend the palate, and ren
der unnecessary any change of diet or interrup
tion ot ordinary pursuits, but promote sound sleep
and healty digestion, and the complaint is remo
ved as speedily as is consistent with the produc
tion of a thorough and permanent cure.
for Persons in Advanced Years, who are suffer
ing from an enfeebled consitution and infirm body,
these Bitters are invaluable as a restorative of
strength and vigor, and need only be tried to be
appreciated. And to a mother while nursing these
Bitters are indispensable, especially where the mo
ther's nourishment is inadequate to the demands
of the child, consequently her strength must yield,
and here it is where a good tonic, such as Hostet
ter's Stomach Bitters, is needed to impart tempo
rary strength and vigor to the system. Ladies
should by all means try this remedy for all ca
ses of debility, and, beforo to doing, should ask
their physician. wiio,'if he is acquainted with the
virtue of the Stomach Bitters, will recommend
their use in all cases of weakness.
Caution. We caution the public against using
any of the many imitations or counterfeits, but ask
for Hostetter 's Celebrated Stomach Bitters, and see
that each bottle has the words "Dr. J. Ilostetter's
Stomach Bitters" blown on the side of the bottle,
and stamped on the metallic cap covering the cork,
and observe that our autograph signature is on the
label. t3r"Prepared and sold hy Hostetter If Smith,

SPECIAL NOTICE TO BOOK BUYERS
My attention has been called to statements made
through the publie journals, by a New York Gift
Sto. e, which are calculated to deceive ; who even
presume to advertise th. tnselvcs as the originators
of the Gift Book Enterprise, which was first suc
cessfully established, and I may say honarably
conducted by myself. This concern, who are pro
claiming themselves, "TheOldest in the business,"
are indebted to me, not only for their first ideas of
conducting the business, but for stock to commence
with, and a place to commence in. Their state
ment, that this is '-The fifth year of their location
in New York," is also faise.
It has been thought, on account of the name
connected with this New York Gift Store, that it
was a orancu ot my Original Enterprise; but it is
not so, and I wish it distinctly understood, that I
am not in any way responsible for their deceptive
advertisements, nor for the manner in which New
York Gift concerns are conducted. And holding
the position I do, as the Originator of the Gift
Book Enternrioe in tbe United States having es
tablished it and brought it to its present high po
sition, by constant labor, unwearied application,
and large expenditure of money, I deem it my du
ty to the publie and myself to expose these pre
tended originators,", who are attempting to im
pose upon thepeoplc. I would here publicly state
that these parties have been referring, without
authority or permission, to the largest and most
widely known publishing house in the U nited
States. I am in ormed by this firm, which is lo
cated in this city, that, not only have they never
given permission to this New York Gift Store to
rerertothem, but they utterly disclaim any knowl
edge of their business or standing. The fore
going can be substantiated to tbe satisfaction of
any person or persons, by th most incontroverti
ble proofs. Ju'y 1 1 , 1852-PiB.
