THE JOUENAL,
CLEARFIELD, PA., DEC. 7, 1S50.
The Susquehanna this morning is very high,
with a prospect ot rising during the day.
Dox't tail to see 'Sixth Annual Announce
ment and brilliant offers, in another column.
The Sheriff's Sales, Register's Notice, and
lercral other new advertisements appear in

Ccl. Jons L. Cuttle, the new Prothonotary
for this county, entered npon the duties of his
olBce on last Thursday the 1st inst.
Revival. We understand that the Luther
ans and Methodists have lor some days past
been holding union meetings in the town of
Luthersburg, this county; that much feeling
on the subject of religion is being manifested,
nud that a quite a nuni'oer of persons have
ieen converted since the meetings began.
"With Divine permission, the Lord's Supper
vill be observed in the Presbyterian Church
in this place on next Sabbath. Public worship
will commence this evening (Wednesday) at
Ci o'clock, and be continued on each succeed
ing day, commencing at 11 A. M. and G P.
X. The Kev. G. W. Thompson, D. D., is ex
pected to be present and assist the Pastor in
these services.- A cordial invitation to attend
is extended to all.
Winter. On last Saturday, snow to the
depth of several inches fell in this region, ma
king things out-doors look and feel quite win
ttry. Though the atmosphere moderated a
little, and caused the snow to thaw during
Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, It has not all
disappeared yet. The melting of the snow on
the slightly frozen ground, has put the roads
in such a Lad condition that they are almost
irupasaable with wheeled vehicles.
Look to your Stove-pipes. Nearly every
paper we have received for some weeks past
contained an account of the burning of some
building, and in a majority ofjnstances it was
stated that the fire originated at the stove
pipe !" Teople should take this as a warning,
and see to it that their stove-pipes are not en
dangering the safety of their houses. No
stove-pipe should pass through a ceiling or
roof; th only secure mode is to build flues
from the basement up, and run the pipes di
rectly into the flues.
Lost on Wednesday, Nov. GOih, on the
nw pike, between the Black Moshannon and
Kyler's, a carpet bag belonging to Miss Ellen
Jamison. Among the contents was a scrap
Look, which, though highly prized by the own
er, can be of no use to any one else. The
Look and carpet bag may, if found, be left at
either this office, at A. Jackson's hotel, Phil
i:burg, or at Antis's hotel, or Col. W. W.
Brown, of Bellelonte, addressed, telling him
where to procure it. The finder will be suit
ably rewarded. For the return of the scrap
book alone a reward will be given.
IIorsE Ecrsed. Last Friday, Dec. 2d, the
-duelling house of Mr. Robert Hunter, about
L ilf a mile above the village of Ansonville, in
this county, was destroyed by fire. No one
but Mrs. Hunter was at home when the fire
broke out, and by the time she gave the alarm
to some neighbors, it bad made such progress
that it was utterly impossible to save the build
ing. Some corn, a cook stove, and a few oth
er articles were also burned ; most of the fur
niture was saved. The fire originated at the
stove pipe. Though the house was not a very
valuable one, its destruction at this season of
the year is a serious loss.
Tue Lru3EE Bcsixess. The lumbermen of
onr county are busy at present making tim
ber, hauling, &c. From all we can learn, we
judge that the quantity next spring will bo as
large as uuul. but cannot say what the prices
are likely to be. The log men are also active
ly at work, and will most probably get a large
stock of logs into the streams during the win
ter. This system of lumbering Las had the
effect of materially diminishing the manufac
ture of boards and scantling in this county,
and consequently the bulk of the lumlier ta
ken from here now is in the form of square
limber. Should the snow of the last week
melt rapidly enough to produce a "flood" in
the river, a few rafts will doubtless be started
this week for the lower markets.
As Item for Merciiaxts. A reportorial co
temporary says, very truly, that there is a dif
ference in men business men. especially.
When ia want of a given article, it is a pleas
ure to call upon certain men and purchase it.
You are received kindly, waited upon gen
teely, aud courteously thanked for your pat
ronage. But entering another place of busi
ness, you are obliged to wait some time before
you can seenre attention then are slowly and
sullenly waited upon no word of thanks pass
ed or dreamed of uninvited to call again
and the manner of the dealer, more plainly
than words, telling you that you have been ac
commodated, and that you are the 6ole one un
der obligations. It is not difficult to guess
w hich of these mon secures the largest amount
of. business, nor which deserves it.
Fashions Changing. The following para
graph, taken from the Paris correspondence
of the Philadelphia Bulletin, may prove inter
esting to some of our lady readers:
"Bonnets at Paris arc increasing daily in
size. They are very high in front, come over
the forehead, and entirely conceal the hair ;
frightful things. I think. Belts of gold and
silver braid, with old shaped buckles, like lit
tle shields, are the rage; they are mostly en
amelled with Byzantine, Chinese or arabesquo
designs, and are very handsome. Then there
are the most extraordinary trimmings for
dresses, perfectly military, called Garniture
ir, Guides, Garniture de I' Elat Major ; they
are made up of epaulettes, algnilletee, cords,
, cc., in gold and ribbon lace, and jet beads.

of unalloyed plea.rc. It removes all morbid

ing it that tone and energy so indispensable for
the restoration of health. The numerous acknowl

impart vitality to the thorough system. See ad

the Pitst degree. The above named -insurrection'
caused a great deal of gas to be let off by leading

if it had. been an Italian strike for Freedom a

one exception, would call meetings and pass reso

HOSTETTER'S STOMACH BITTERS.
It is a fact that, nt 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 be able so to regulate the sys
tem as to secure permanent health. In order to ac
complish this desired object, the true tourse to pur
sue is certainly that which w ill produce a natural
state of things at the least hazard of vital strength
and life. For this purpose, Dr. Hostettcr has in
troduced to th is country a preparation bearing his
name, which is not a new medicine, but one that
has been tried for j-cars. 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, of 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 is probably more prevalent,
iu 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 HOSTETTER'S STOMACH
BITTERS, as per directions on tho bottle. For
this disease every physician will recommend Bit
ters of some kind ; then why not uso an article
known to be infallible ? All nations have their
Bitters, as a preventive of disease and strengthen
er of tho system in general; and among them all
there is not to be found a more healthy people
than the Germans, from whom this preparation em
anated, based upon scientific experiments which
have tended to prove tho value of this great pre
paration in the scale of medical science.
Fever and Acre. This trying and provoking
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 be driven from the bodv by the
use of HOSTETTER'S RENOWNED BITTER'S.
Further, none of tho above-stated diseases can be
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 of ordinary pursuits, but promote sound sleep

Por Persons in. Advanced Years, who are suffer

these Bitters are invaluable as a restorative of
strength and vigor, and need "only be tried to be

Bitters are indispensable, especially where the mo

of the child, consequently her strength must yield,
and here it is where a good touie, such as Ilostet

their physician, who, if hois acquainted with the
virtue of the Stomach Bitters, will recommend
their use in all cases of weakness.
