THE JOURNAL.
CLEARFIELD, PA., FEB. 15, 1800.
We call the attention of persons in want of
new and seasonable goods, to Graham & Boyn
tem'i advertuement, which will be found m
to-day'a Journal.
Jesse Beams, of Morris township, whilst re
cently engaged in cutting timber lor Mr. Jas.
P. Nelson, cnt his knee with a broad axe. He
is able to be about again.
LEST As Lent is at hand, and fish are
much sought after during that period, we
would direct the attention of the public to the
advertisement of R. Mossop.
" We direct the attention of persons in want
of Corn, Rye, Oats, Salt, Flour, Fish, &c, to
the advertisement of D. J. M'Cann, Philips
burg, who wants dry pine lumber and shingles.
Pkrkt Hocse, Marietta. We direct the
attention of our raftsmen who visit Marietta,
to the advertisement of Mr. Abner M'Michael,
who has taken the Perry Ilouse, formerly kept
by Mrs. Clements.
Still Coming We noticed yesterdy quite
a largo number of sleds passing along our
streets, loaded with grain. It is said that SO
were on the road between Philipsburg and
Clearfield in the forenoon.
Wm. Davidson, who has been confined in
our juil for some time, on a charge of larceny,
was yesterday taken by the Sheriff of Warren
county, on a bench warrant, and escorted back
to bis old quarters in tho Warren jail," from
which he had escaped several months ago.
Foot Mashed On the 9th inst., Mr. John
Snyder, of Bell township, whilst engaged in
snubbing a spar on a stump on the hill-side,
le set lils foot on the rope to keep it from
slipping up, when a kink in it caught the foot
and forcing it against tho stump, injured it
severely.
A protracted meeting is now being held in
the Lutheran church in this place, and a good
deal of interest is manifested by those in at
tendance. It is to bo hoped that the effort
will result in rec'a"ming many from their wick
ed wiys, and that the Church will be benefit
red thereby.
A IIixt to IIocstKEEFEUs. A few drops of
aqua ammonia in a little warm rain water, will
prove a safe anti-acid ; and will change, if
carefully applied, discolored spot3 upon car
pets, and indeed all spots, whether caused by
acids -or alkalies. It carpet is injured by
whitewash, thw wiH immediately restore it.
Record Yocr Deeds. All deeds executed
In Pennsylvania must be recorded within six
months, otherwise to be deemed fraudulent
and void agninst purchasers or mortgage for
value, nnless recorded before the deed under
which tho purchaser claims. At least, so says
Turdon's Digest, and that is regarded as the
Lest authority. Persons cannot ba too careful
In properly securing the titlo to their property.
Death of Wm. IIocsler. Our account of
the killing of William Housler, at Lock Ha
ven, a few weeks since, seems to have been
pretty nearly correct. Tho Watchman says it
firmly believes that he received a blow from a
slung shot, as there was nothing where ho fell
that wruld produce such a wound as he recei
ved. It thinks the officers did wrong in hush
ing up or covering such a crime. A full in
vestigation into the affair should be demanded.
Dastakdlt Act We learn that sonic nr.
known person or persons entered a school
house in Lawrence tow nship, a short distance
from this place, a few nights since, after the
flchool-r.'.isivchs and scholars had left, and de
filed it iu a most shameful manner. Such con
duct id disgraceful in the highest degree, and
the perpetrators of the deed should be punish
ed to the utmost extent of the law if they can
be discovered.
Wu at a Weather ! Variable as a pretty
woman's temper uncertain as a maiden's reso
lutions. One day pleasant, the next stormy
sunshiny and genial in the morning, tempest,
nous aud forbidding in the evening. After a
short season of mild and agreeable weather,
on last Wednesday we were visited with a snow
storm the atmosphere grew intensely x;old,
and for some days we were in the enjoycic-iii
of a regular old fashioned wictr. The haul
ing is good, and our lumbermen are making
iko beat of it in the way of getting the products
of the forest to the bank of the river. Most
Jikely, however, btfore this paragraph is read
by most of our readers, another change in that
Ul- absorbing topic "tho weather" will have
taken place.

and miles with ease. Dispatches were receiv
ed at Milwaukee and other points, and answer
ed in a few seconds, promptly and with accu
racy. This is working over a line nearly twice
the length of the Atlantic cable, and demon
strates the fact that, with good lines and skill
ful operators, a line of almost any length can
be worked as well as a short one. The opera
tors say that it would have worked, without

sand miles of additional wire.

1852, elected one of the representatives in
Congress in that State. Failing in a re-election,
he was appointed by President Pierce
Collector ot tho Customs at San Francisco,
which post be occupied for three years. Two
years alter his retirement he was elected, in
September last, Governor of California, and
immediately thereafter as United States Sena
tor, in place of Broderick. This has been a
singulaily successful political career.

Accident. Abou t three weeks ago, Daniel
Snyder, Sr., of Bell township, was seriously
injured by a large spar rolling against him,
Avhich ho was engaged in putting down the
hill. The spar had been stopped by snubbing
it with a rope. Supposing it to be stationary,
Mr. Snyder stooped to get an axe or a hand
spoke, which was lying near him. While in
this prostrate position, the spar commenced
moving and shoved him along with such force,
that three ol his ribs were broken besides be
ing otherwise injured. We 'are pleased to
learn that he is improving.

The closing Tears of Life are often rendered
wretched by uilmcnts which are trifling in them
selves and easily cured if taken in time. Affec
tion of the liver, stomach, and other organs con
cerned in digestion, are the most frequent. They
naturally make the sufferer nervous, irritable and
complaining, nnd relatives and friends are forced
to bear the brunt of their ill humor. Tho use of
llostetter's Celebrated Stomach Litters will prove
an efficient remedy for this evil, it will not only
strengthen the whole physical organization, but
entirely cure tho most obstinate cases of Indiges
tion. Diarrhoea. Dysentery, and Liver complaint.
The first physicians in the country are loud in
their praise of this preparation. Another recom
mendation of tho Bitters is that it is so palatable
to the taste that it may be used even as a bever

HOSTETTER'S STOMACH BITTERS.
It is a fact that, at soruo period, every mem
ber of the human family is subject to disease or
disturbance of tho bodily functions; but. with the
aid of a good tonic and the exercise of plain com
mon sense, they may be able 90 to regulate the sys
tem as to secure permanent health. In order to ac
complish this desired object, the true rourse 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 to this country a preparation bearing his
name, which i3 not a new 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 tho cure of Dyspepsia, Indigestion, Nausea,
Flatulency, Loss of Appetite, or Bilious com plaints,
arising from a morbid inaction of the Stomach or
Bowels, produeiiigCramps,Dj-scntary,ChoIie,Chol-cra
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,
in all its various forms, than any other, and the
cause of which may always be attributed to do
rangenients of the digestive organs, can be cured
without fail by using HOSTETTEK'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 ? All nations have their
Bitters, as a preventive of disease and strengthen
erof the 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 sciectiBe experiments which
have tended to prove the value of this great pre
paration in the scale of medical science.
Fever axdAoce. This trying and provoking
disease, which fixes its relentless grasp on the bo
dy of man, reducing him to a mere shadow in a
hhort time, and rendering him physically and men
tally useless, can bo driven from the body by the
use of IIOSTETTEll'S RENOWNED BITTER S.
Further, none of the 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, aud ren
der unnecessary any change of diet or interrup
tion of 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 Person in Advanced Years, who are suffer
ing from an enfeebled constitution and infirm body,
these Bitters are invaluable as a restorative of
strength and vigor, and need only be tried to bo
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 hero it is where a good tonic, such as Hos tet
ter's Stomach Bitters, is needed to impart tempo
rary strength and vigor to the system. Ladies
should by nil moans try this remedy for all ca
ses of debility, and, before to doing, should ask
their physician, who, 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 llostetter's Celebrated Stomach Hitters, and see
that each bottle has the words "Dr. J. llostetter'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. OPPrepared and sold Hostetter 6r Smith,
Pittsburg, Pa., and sold by all druggists, grocers,
and dealers generally throughout the United
States, Canada. South America, and Germany.
