"CLEARFIELD, PA., AUGUST 22, 18GCL
Our farmers have been busy at oats harvest
ing for several days past. The yield and qual
ity are said to be good.
Oar thanks are due ffm. Irvin, Esq., of
Curwensville, for a basket of apples, the larg
est and best we have seen the present season.
We understand that the u7c-Awakes" of
Curwensville are procaiing caps, capes, &c,
and will hereafter attend meetings in regular
uniform.
Thieving, it appears, is still carried on in
Karthaus township. On Friday night, August
10th, the smoke-house of Joseph Yothers was
broken open and two hams and two flitches
of bacon, valued at from $10 to $15, stolen
therefrom.
The Weather continues very warm hero
during the day-time ;' the nights, however, are
cool. On Monday night we had a heavy rain,
which has imparted new vigor to the corn, and
was much needed by the buckwheat, which is
not as thrifty as desirable. Yesterday after
noon we had another very fine rain.
ric-Nic The citizens of Mt. Joy, in con
nection with Miss Wallace's school, had an in
teresting pic-nic a few days since, in a grove
near the school-bouse. The account of the
proceedings was handed to us yesterday eve
ning at so late an hour that it wa3 out of the
question to put it in type and make room for
it in our columns this week.
Pole Raisiso at Philipsbcro. Last Satur
day the friends of Lincoln, Hamlin and Cur
tin raised a fine pole at the house of John S.
Kadebach in the neighboring borough of Phil
ipsburg. A meeting was afterwards held in
the beautiful grove east of town, which was
well attended, and at which Leonard G. Kess
lar acted as President ; John Twiggs, William
3Ieyers, A. K. .Nelson, and Isaac Goss as Vice
Presidents ; and D. C. .Nelson and J. B. Runk
as Secretaries. A series of resolutions, en
dorsing the nominations of Lincoln, Hamlin
and Curtin, were adopted, after which the
meeting was addressed by Maj. James S. Bris
bin and Col. W. W. Brown, of Bellefonte, who
defined the position and principles of the Re
publican party in a clear and masterly man
ner. In the evening, another meeting was
held, which was also addressed by Col. Brown.
The Curwensville Brass Band was present, and
enlivened the proceedings in their usual cred
itable manner. Take it all in all, the meet
ing was a very creditable one, and imparted
spirit and energy to.our friends in and around
Philipsbnrg. Our friend Radebach is especi
ally deserving of praise for the active part he
took in getting up the pole and the meeting.
The ball being thus fairly started in that sec- j
tion, we trust that it will be kept rolling until
victory crowns our efforts in October and No
vember. At Vincentown, Xew-Jcrscy, George Aiken
was shot and instantly killed by John A. Cono
ver. It is. alleged thut Aiken had perpetrated
an outrage upon the person of Conovr's wife,
and was forbid to come to the house. Cono
ver in the meantime had got a warrant for the
arrest of Aiken, and placed it in the hands of
the constable. When Aiken heard of it he
threatened to kill Conover if he did not with
draw the warrant. He went to Conover's
house, when the latter shot him through the
neck, killing him instantly. Conover gave
f.iinself up to the authorities, and was lodged
in Mount Holly jail.
The "Oil of Bourbon Whisky" is openly ad
veitised for sale by chemists at fifty cents per
ounce, and this oil is so potent that "each
ounce will change one hundred gallons of al
cohol into "delicate old Bourbon !" In like
manner, "Oil of Jamaica," and -'Oil of Apple,'
we sold to convert a common spirit into Ja
maica ditto, and into "Apple Brandy !" As
lo "Oil of Cognac" (which is a composition of
sulphuric acid, caustic potash, and highly con
centrated alcohol), one ounce of it is worth
six dollars, and will metamorphose a hundred
gallons of neutral spirits into "Pure old Cog
nac Brandy, just out of the Custom House."
On the 8th inst. Blondin met with a serious
accident at Chillicothe, Ohio. After dusk he
undertook to cross a tight-rope, wheeling a
barrow, and encircled with a blaze of fireworks
doubtless in jealous imitation of the late
splendid meteor. Before he had reached the
middle of his aerial route, one of the pieces
.exploded and set fire to his clothing. There
was no time to halt and extinguish the flames,
and the modern Ph.xton could only keep on
his course and suffer the torture of being slow
ly blistered. With qnite heroic self-control
lie gained the end of hi journey and succeed
ed in smothering the fire, but not until his
back was badly burned.
The St. Joseph papers learn that a terrible
affray took place in Clay county, Missouri,
near Smithville, between Dr. Jordan and five
others. The affair grew out of a trial for rape
in that county, and the persons killed had
sworn vengence on the Doctor for the evidence
he had given on the trial. On Friday business
called the Doctor to Smithville, and while sit
ting in a store, conversing with some friends,
the other party, five in number, entered with
puns, and told him they had come to take his
life. lie immediately drew a pistol and com
menced firing, killing two of his assailants and
wounding the other three. The Doctor was
not arrested, although he offered to give him
elf up to an officer. The community in which
the aflair occurred justified the Doctor's course
on the ground that he acted in self-defence.
George Aldrich, a convict, who had just
served out a term of five years in the Virginia
penitentiary, for killing a man in Logan, left
Richmond a few days since, and on arriving at
Logan county, found that his family had moved
across the river to Warfield, Lawrence county,
Va. He followed them; murdered his sister
in the most shocking manner, literally cutting
her to pieces, taking out her heart and hack
ing it up, and then throwing her body into
Sandy river. The body of his son, a lad about
13 years of age, was found in a by-place, near
ly eaten up by the hogs but was readily iden
tified by a remarkable scar on one foot, which
had been preserved by the shoe and stocking.
Hie son was by a wife who had obtained a di
vorce. After the perpetration of these horrid
deeds, the fiend, with bis gnn in hand, fled to
the woods, saying that he intended to kill his
ather and mother and two other persons and
hen the people might take him, burn him at
no stake, or do what they pleased with him.
4 he cicitcd people were after him.

; A Man who recently went with an excursion

Eves those who are in the enjoyment of per
fect health frequently need to have recourse to
tonics aa preventives of disease. We are never too
well armored against the assaults of ':the ills that
flesh is heir to." Such an invigorator they may
find in Hosteller's Bitters a medicine tbatcannot
bo taken regularly without giving vitality and e
lasticity to the system. At this season, particular
ly, the strongest man is not proof against the ma
laria, in certain sections of the country. In all
cases of fever and ague, the Bitters 13 more potent
than any amount of quinine, whilst the most dan
gerous cases of bilious fever yield to its wonderful
properties. Those who have tried the medicine
will never use another, for any of the ailments
which the Hostetter Bitters profess to subdue. To
those who have Dot made the experiment, we cor
dially recommend an early application to the Bit
ters, whenever they are stricken by diseases of the
digestive organs. Sold by druggists and dealers

HOSTETTER'S STOMACH HITTERS.
It is a fact that, at some period, eTery 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 toursc to pur
sue is certainly that which will produce a natural
state of things atthe leasthazard of vital strength
and life. For this purpose, Dr. Hostetter has in
troduced to this country a preparation bearing his
name, which is 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 the cure of Dyspepsia, Indigestion, Nausea,
Flatulency, Loss of Appetite, or Bilious complaints,
arising from a morbid inaction of the Stomach or
Bowels, producingCramps,Dyseutary,Cholic,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 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 use an article
known to be infallible ? All 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
than the Germans, from whom this preparation em
anated, based upon scientific experiments which
have tended to prove the value of this great pre
paration in the scale of medical science.
Fever and Ague. 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 body by the
use 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 of ordinary pursuits, but promote sound sleep
and healty digestion, and. tho 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 bo 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 11 os tet
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, before . o doing, should ask
their physician, who, if he is acquainted with the
virtue of the Stomach Bitters, will recommend
their use in all case3 of weakness. 1
Caution. We caution the pnblio 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. Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters" blown on the side of the bottle,
and8tamped on the metallic cap covering the cork,
and observe thatour autograph signature is on the
label. ETTrepared and sold by Hostetter 6r Smith,
Pittsburg, Pa., and sold by all druggists, grocers,
and dealers generally throughout the United
States, Canada, South America, and Germany.

LATEST NEWS FROM HARPER'S
FERRY. Brown, the leatler of the Insur
rection, found guilty of Murder and Treason in
the. Fiist degree. Ihe above named -insurrection
caused a great deal of gas to be let off by leading
politicians and the political press of this great
country, and in fact, the majority of the people of
all parties, were more or less excited on reading
the first account of the insurrection some of the
papers trying to make political capital out of the
affair and others making light of the matter; But
if it hal been an Italian strike for Freedom a
gainst their lawful sovereign, led on by Mazzinni
or Garibaldi, the Press of this country, with but
one exception, would call meetings and pass reso
lutions and solicit subscriptions to aid them in
their so called patriotic work ; but amidst all this
inconsistency there is one man that is not the least
interested in the fate of Brown or his companions,
and that one is Frank Short of the Short Shoe
Shop on Second street, where he will be found at
all times ready and willing to wait upon persons
calling on him for anything in the Boot, Shoe or
Gaiter line. Thankful for past favors he only asks
a continuance of the same, and will sell as cheap
for cash or hides as any other man in the county.
