THE JOURNAL.
CLEARFIELD, PA., NOV. 28, 1860.
Notics. The person who borrowed at this
office book entitled " Proverbs of all Nat ions,'
is requested to return it soon.
PARSED. We learn that Gov. Packer has
pardoned John Leonard, who was convicted
in the Court of Centre county, at February
term, 1858, for passing counterfeit money,
lie had been sentenced to seven and a half
ears imprisonment In the Eastern Penitentia
ry, on three indictments, and has served out
nearly three years of his time.
A Mistake. A few weeks sinco we receiv
ed a notico of the marriage of Mr. Wm. Ste
vens of Karlhans to Miss Wilhelmina Stewart
ol Snow Shoe. Wo are now informed that Mr.
Stevens is not married, but is still in a state
r single blessedness, and that there is no lady
of the name given. If we can ascertain who
acnt hs the notice we will give him the benefit
of a paragraph that others may possibly think
equally as good a joke as his.
The ScAti-EL. This 'cutting' quarterly pub
lication is again on onr table, and contains the
usual variety of interesting and instructive ar
ticles ; several of which relate to some of the
deteriorating practices and habits of the hu
man family. The 'Scalpel' is not a medical
work, but is designed for the general reader;
to instruct those who peruse its pages in all
things that relate to health, conilort, happi
ness, and the elevation of society. Terms, $1
a year in advance. Address, "Scalpel" No. 1
Yescy Street, Astor House, New York.
The WEATnEtt. "I never, in all my life, ex
perienced such weather," was the remark that
everybody made during the past half dozen
days. On last Thursday a little snow fell ; on
Friday we had rain, which continued falling
until about midnight ; then it "blew, snew and
friz on Saturday hard freezing set in and
continued over Sunday, the Susquehanna be
ing "tied up"' by the intense culd ; on Mon
day it moderated ; in the evening snow began
to fall, but soon turned Into sleet, and on yes
terday there were several inches of slush on the
pavements and streets and "such a time' as
the ferninines, and everybody else had, in get
ling along, "nobody ever did see."
Clear ri eld Cor xtt Bask. This institution
Is to go into operation this week, the notes
having been procured rom the Auditor Gen
eral, by whom they are countersigned. The
notes, in our opinion, are really beautiful.
The vignette of the V's represent a raft, with
the hand "poling it off" the bank of the
stream.. A woman and child are also seated
on tho raft, alongside of the shanty. The
vignette on the X's is a forest scene men cut
ling down trees, and a saw-mill in the dis
tance. This bank is one of the soundest in
the State, as Stato, stock has been deposited
with the Auditor General for tho whole amount
of notes that will be issued, less 5 per cent.,
as provided bylaw.
Ma. Editor : The other evening I over
"heard, unintentionally as a matter of course, a
"large and respectable meeting' taking ac
tion in regard to tho building of a new school
honse in Lawrence district, when it was unan
imously "Rttolvtd, That all school houses
nbttuld in future be built of cast iron entirely
the walls, the roof, the floor. &c, with metal
lightning rods and cast-iron cat holes so as
to be free from all danger of conflagrations or
the depredations of incendiaries." A motion
nns also carried to have the resolution pub--lithed,
and as it is a good thing, worthy the
consideration of all law-abiding citizens, and
the Secretary may neglect to send it in time,
1 have taken it upon myself to do So. . "
.Respectfully yours, Goggles.

rX"The Delaware Gazelle having said that

K7Asserted that Indian corn produces a
clear fluid, which burns without odor, without

mThe majority against allowing the color
ed people the right ot suffrage in New York, is
over ono hundred and twelve thousand votes .
New York is a Republican State, and this vote
should forever stop the Iving accusation thatthe
Republicans are in favor of "negro equality."
CEP"Says Prentice, "if the people of South
Carolina want to secede, let them by all means.
Let them go to England, or Russia, or Spain,

But they can't be allowed to tako the ir territo

E7"A11 parties had a merry time of it in Ba
favia, New York, a few evenings since. The
Democracy had provided themselves with an a-
bundant outfit for "Salt River,' and, under the
general direction of the hard workers of the
partv. formed in line, and were escorted by
the Wide Awakes towards that famous bourne.
It was a very funny affair; and all parties were
exceedingly jolly.
Europe. The steamer Palestine, with one
day later European intelligence, arrived at
Portland, Nov. Zli Her latest dates are ot
the 9th inst. The King of Sardinia had en
tered Naples on the 7th inst., in company with
Garibaldi. Great festivities took place on the
occasion. - It is said that the dissolution of
the Pope's army is positive, and that be will
have only a guard of 3,000 men left to him.
The British Legion at Naples were dwindling
away on account of the disgraceful conduct
ol its members.. There was a rumor that a
treaty of peace with China had been signed at
Tcin-tsin. but it was doubted. The Prince of
Wales had not arrived, but two vessels, sup
posed to be the Hero and Ariadne, wcro seen
off Portland on the 8th inst. There was but
little inquiry for breadstufls at weak prices.
The steamer Africa, with dates via Queens
town Nov. 11, arrived atN. Y. port on tho
23d. The Prince of Wales squadron had not
yet arrived. Victor Emanuel had issued a
proclamation nccepting the sovereign author
ity of the Two Sicilies. The investiture of
Gaeta on the land side continued, and it is
said that the departure of Francis II. was im
minent. The Neapolitan army is reported to
be reduced to 20,000 men, with few officers to
command them, and negotiations have been
commenced for the evacuation of the fortress
of Gaeta. Garibaldi left Naples on the 0th
inst. for his home at the Island of Caprera.
Breadstufls steady, but quiet.
A curious fugitive slave case has just come to
light in New York city. John Thomas, a col
ored man, recently owned by a Mr. Winter of
Louisville, Ky., was sent by his master to an
agent in Evansville, Ind., by whom he was
shipped as a steward on a boat plying np and
down the Ohio, bis wages inuring to the bene-,
fit of Winter. John Thomas, tiring of his
task, betook himself to Canada, and thence
came to New York, where he engaged with
Mr. Vail, in Broadway, as porter, serving him
for some months. On Monday night, by some
unexplained means, John Thomas was taken
to the Grand Jury room in Chambers street,
by some unknown personage. He managed
to let Mr. Vail know his whereabouts, and. on
Tuesday that gentleman saw him there in the
custody of some one, who exhibited a power
of attorney from Winter to recover and return
the fugacious John Thomas. Mr. Vail on
the 20th got a writ of habeas corpus, which
Marshal Rynders the next day responded to
by producing in court tha body of a John
Thomas, colored man. This J. T., however,
was another person, who bad been in jail as a
witness in a murder case since March last.
The Judge decided that the writ was satisfied.
Meanwhile, Mr. Winter's John Thomas is pro-
bablv far on his way to Louisville. But the
fact remains that a man has been kidnapped
in the streets of, New York, confined in a
United States court-room, and carried oat of
the State without the knowledge or connivance
of United States Marshals, Deputies, Com
niissioners, District-Attorneys, or Judges.
N. B At the. latest advices, the man was in
custody, at Richmond, Va., awajtjnz the arri
val of his late master, from Kentucky.
Will the South complain of a violation ot
the fugitive slave law in this instance ?

Garibaldi has resigned his dictatorship into
the hands of Victor Emanuel, and gone home
to his rude farm on the little inland of Capre
ra. After uniting Sicily and Naples,with their
nine millions of people, to the Italian King
dora, the liberator returns to the simplicity
of his peaceful seclusion, refusing both wealth
and titles, enriched in nothing but glory, and
the mingled admiration and affection of the
world. If history records any whero the life
of a hero more disinterested, more brave,
more faithful, ondowed with more substantial
magnanimity or a more sublime simplicity of
character, we do not know it. Italy may well
look upon him with pride and gratitude, but h
belongs to humanity even more than be be
longs to her.
