. CLEARFIELD, PA., APRIL 18, 1860.
Cocbt. An adjourned court was held in the
Town Hall yesterday. The argnment list was
nilsposod of? and some other business, of Utile
general Interest, transacted.
Accit.KTXaIay. Mr. M. W. Snyder
of Lawrence- township had one of his feet bad
jy . mashed at the "Stepping Stone," where
the raft on which he was, and another belong
ing to Henfy Swan, were stored. . . .
Comxesced. Geo. Thorn, the contractor of
tbe new court house, yesterday commenced
the work of "laying the foundation, and, judg
ing him by his well known energy, we have no
doubt that he will get n? the brick-worK during
the summer. He is employing good and com
petent workmen, and no labor will be spared
in making U a substantial building.
AaBiccLTi'RAt Meeting. A meeting of the
i Clearfield County Agricultural Society will be
ilield in the Town Hall in Clearfield Borough,
on Monday evening, June 18tb, (court week.)
The several Vico Presidents are requested to
mako return to this 'meeting of any monies
they may bavo received; and their presence
it especially desired, as it is proposed then to
take action affout holding a Fair the coming
jfall. Di.ti3 Irwin, Prest.
-Painful Rcmor It is reported hero that,
one day last week, a young man named Con-
way, of Covington township, 17 or 18 years of
.age, was drowned at the foot of Buttermilk
Talla. Ho was attempting to push some logs
from the front of a raft, when ho fell and was
precipitated into the water, and before assist
ance could bo rendered, the raft passed over
him. Wo hope the rumor, which has already
been contradicted, may not prove to be true.
"Stovino." Quito a number of rafts, we
understand, have been "stored" in Clearfield
creek, as well as in the river. It is said that
sevcn rafts were at one time piled up on the
i head of "Spruce Island," on the Creek, and
that in order to get the course open, it was
. found necessary to chop up some of the tim
ber. We have heard of several being badly
damaged on the tiver, but do not know that
the losses will be heavy, except in ono or two
Instances.
At the adjourned Court yesterday, on appli
cation of K. J. Wallace, Esq., District Attor
ney, the Court assigned Israel Test, Esq., as
assistant counsel in the case of the Comth.
vs. Sarah Brenneman, charged with infanti
cide, and J. B. McEnally, Esq., in the case of
the Comth. vs. James Hockenberry, charged
with the murder of John Thompson. Both
prisoners will remain in jail until their trial
takes place, unless they should make their es
cape, of which there is very little probability.
Shockiso Diatu. We learn by the Brook
vine Jejfertonian that on last Wednesday eve
ning, the lltli inst.", Mr. Cambridge Johnston,
formerly of Brady township, this county, met
with almost instant death in the following man
ner : lie came from Reynold's on a raft, and
when in the act of landing along side of an
other raft, in Taylor's pond, the point of the
oar struck against something and he was thrown
into the stream, by the oar-stem. As tbo
two rafts came together suddenly, he was
ground between the timbers in a most shock
fug manner and died in about ten minutes af
ter being taken out. The deceased was about
40 years of age, resided at Prospect Hill, in
Jefierson county, and leaves a wife and five
children to mourn his sad fate.
Exciting Foot Race. We learn that ono
day this week a very exciting foot race came
oil on tho River bauk above this place. Two
men, poorly appareled, starting at a given
point, rushed along at full speed, ran over two
litsld girls, scattered about a dozen of boys,
and "elevated the ancient Henry" generally
among the hogs, dogs, cows, ducks, geese and
chickens In that locality. . When taken to task
for producing such an uproar, they excused
themselves on tbo ground that Mossop had just
received and opened, at his store on Market
street, an unusually large stock of Spring and
Summer Goods, of every description, for la
dies and gentlemen, and they were hurrying
on to get somo before they wero all sold. As
they are selling rapidly, all others who wish to
procure seasonable goods should lose no time
in making their purchases. A fuller enumera
tion of articles kept by Mossop will be given in
u advertisement in next week's Journal.
The Loafer The most miserable,hopeless
scrap of humanity, is an idle man a man whose
chief aim of life is to "loaf" to waste in list
less lounging and mental and physical inaction,
the best years of his life. There are such be
ings in every town miserable loafers whose
soul occupation is to avoid employment of
any kind whose lives can scarcely bo called
lives who die one after another, and leave
behind them what ? Avacancy fo be mourn
ed? .No, for they are in themselves vacancies",
not men. To tbess atoms society owes noth
ing. The history of the world's progress ig
nores their names, their existence, and being
dead, the grave contains no more inert, worth
less earth than it did before. They become
chronic nuisances j they have no local habita
tion or name in so lar as regards their worth
r value, and from day to day, in the haunts
cf busy men, they pass current as uncurrent
funds at so much of a discount that they
can't even buy themselves. Tbo only appa
rent exertion tbey exhibit is that which ena
bles them to be eternally in somebody's way,
to the great hindrance of that somebody's
progress and business. They never do any
special harm and never accomplish any good.
They die only when they get too lazy and in
dolent to use their respiratory organ. They
ver get the consumption, because "they
haven't energy enough to cougb. They give
employment to nobody, for they bare none for
Wemselves. From such as these, may Tor
tone preserve all well-meaning mortals.

ses of the stomach have been universally acknowl
edged. The Bitters, prepared after a long expe
rience and deep study, have received tho encomi
ums of the most eminent physicians, as well as all
classes, from every partTof our country. To those
who doubt tbeir many virtues, all we can say is to
try them, and judge for themselves respectively.
