THE JOtJRNAL:
CLEARFIELD, PA., NOT. 7, 130.
KoBBKBt-Sbfee days since, the clothing
establishment of Peter A. Gaulin, of French
ville, was robbed of about $75 of stock. Wo
have not learned the particulars.

'Teabiwq It Down. The foundation under
ihe tower of the new court house has been
sinking so much that the contractor deems it
Insecure and has concluded to tear down that
portion of the structure. The main part of the
Imilding appears to be firm and substantial.
Fire. On Sunday the 28th Oct., the new
tavern house at Alexander's fording, in Bec
caria township, this county, occupied by Lan
son Root, was destroyed by fire, with a portion
11 It contents. A child, some 4 or 5 years
of age, was playing with shavings outside of

When the Cre Communicated with the building,

Mrs. Root, the dairies bad made such headway
that it was impossible to extinguish them.

Watkb. The rains of last Friday
night and Saturday raised the waters of Clear
field Creek, above Gleu Hope, to a higher
stage than they have been at any time since
2847." Logs, timber and sawed lumber went
Adrift, and consideiablo damage was done to
corn in the fields. Lyonel Weld had from 15,
000 to 20,000 feet of boards and plank swept
away from Harwell's near the Cambria county
line ; a farmer immediately below lost about
50 bushels of corn in shock ; all the logs that
Geo. Groom, Dickey &r Co., Robinson and oth
ers had in the Creek and on the banks, as far
down as Glen Hope, were swept away, as well
as fences and corn in the shock in the vicinity
of Bcccaria Mills, the bridge between the lat
1er place and Glen Hope, and the smalt bridges
over Muddy Run.; , The whole extent of dam
age done we have not ascertained, but the loss
will bo heavy, as the logs alone were valued at
from $5,000 to $0,000. ; '
New Grain IIcllkr. The Philadelphia
JLedgeir, of Nov. 2d says: A newly invent
cd grain huller, which was patented in Sep.
.tember last, by Messrs. Reed & Crans, of
Clearfield County, has been successfully tried
in this city. 'It differs from the machine hith
erto in use .in this city, that instead of the
hull being removed by the machine, it is ta
ken cfl by attrition, the grains being rubbed
against one another. The grain is rnn through
a hopper, over a seive into a concave, hori
zontally placed, the one now in use being six
inches in diameter In this concave is a con
otantly diminishing screws into the worm of
which the grain is forced, and the pressure re
moves the hull without breaking the seed, the
former and latter being carried off at different
openings. The capacity of the new huller is
about 80 bushels of buckwheat and 75 of rice
the hour, the latter being hulled equally -as
clean and well as tho former."
THE CLEARFIELD FAIE.
Col. Alexander, of the Clarion Democrat?
who was present at our Agricultural Fair,
speaks ot it in the following terms: :
'The first Clearfield county Fair, held near
the borough last week proved a complete suc
cess. Nearly five thousand persons were in
attendance. Some ten hundred dollars were
taken for admission, this with six hundred and
fifty dollars donated by the whole-hearted cit
izens of Clearfield and three hundred paid in
on life membership, very nearly liquidated tho
.debt incurred in preparing the grounds, which
were fenced and provided with necessary build
ings, seats, &c., for the accommodation of the
people. The articles on exhibition were in
quantity and quality not surprassed by any
county fair west of the Allegheny. The ar
rangement of the grounds and tho order kept
there, was highly creditable to the managers.
The ladies department was plentifully supplied
with all that could reasonably bo required to
constitute a first class fair the paintings,
needle-work, jellies,prescrves, domestic wines,
Ac, could 'not be surpassed. The merchants
did their part in furnishing samples of goods
of all varieties merely for display and the me
chanics vere.equal to all other classes in arti
cles worthy of their good name for skill In
their various callings. The music discoursed
by tho Curwensville brass band proved a valu
able accession to the occasion.' The ladies
discharged their duties faithfully and although
the weather most of the time was extremely
inclement Jthcy remained faithful to the end.
The address by lion. George JR. Barrett was
appropriate and added greatly to the exalted
character of the orator, while it induced many
to join the society who had beforo been only
idle spectators. . .. .
"Clearfield is the place to hold a fair the
managers understand their business well they
employ the printers and pay them liberally.
They hospitably receive and entertain strang
ers and friends. There the people go forward
with cheerf ul hearts and liberal hands. No
political faction controls their actions-no
fippenny-bit managers act for the masses the
ninsicians were paid-liberal premiums awar
ded and the fair grounds open day and night.
Grangers and citizens seemed to regret that'
h closing time had arrived in three days.
e learn since that the whole debt is paid and
aoney ieft to improve the groups. A riait &
Clearfield Fair pays well."

It ia a common observation that there are more
sufferers from debility, among Americans, than
can be found among any other civilized nation.
The reason ia obvious. We take too little exercise,
and forget the' wants of the body in tho absorbing
pursuits of business. In all such cases, ordinary
medicines can do but little good. "What is requir
ed is Just such a tonic and invigorator' as Dr. J.
llostetter has given to the world, in his Celebra
ted 'Bitters.' The weak and nervous denizen of
the counting house, the exhausted toiler upon the
shop board, and the prostrated student of the mid
night lamp, have found a wonderful regenerator
in the .'Sitters,' and prefer it to more pretentious,
but less efficacious medicines. But it should not
be forgotten that the agent which is so magical
in its influence upon a frame which is merely de
bilitated, is equally powerful in assisting nature
to expel the mo t terrible forms of disease. Who
would not give it a trial ? gold by druggists and
