fAREWEtt Serxox. Rev. W. L. Spotts
wood. pasfr of th0 congregations in
Clearfield and Curwensville, preached his
farewell sermon Jn his church in this place on
last Sabbath evening, to a large audience. lie
has many warm friends in this county.
Cathcart's Day op Execution Fixed.
Gnr. Curtin has issned his writ for the e
cntioir of John Cathcart, convicted in the
Court of Oyer and Terminer of this county,
for the murder of his wife. Tho condemned
will be hnns on Friday tho 12th day of April.
Accident. On last Monday, Mr. Jacob Lip
pett, of Lawrence township, whilst hauling
wood, was severely injured, by the rcpsctting
of his sled, and the load falling upon him.
When discovered, he was in an insensible con-
dition.btit undermcdical treatment hewasROon
restored and placed out of immediate danger.
Bbipcb Swept Awat. The bridge over
Clearnold creok, on tha turnpike, two miles
emt of town, was carried ofl by the ice-flood
on last Wednesday. The pier of tho bridge
at James Forrest's on the old Erie pike, was
also torn awny by the ice, thus rendering it
unsafo to cross that one. The consequence'is
that hauling has in a great measure been bus
ponded, and the mails are now carried across
tho Creek on a foot-log, and Mr. Johnson, of
the Mansion House, runs a conveyance to and
Jrom the Creek, with the mails and passengers
Caught at Last. The brillinnt genius who
does up tho chaste and elegant locals of the
Clearfield Republican, and who. wo presume,
acts the critic for that polished and refined
sheet, has actually eaught us committing a
grammatical blunder. Well we acknowledge
the "corn," or rather, the mistake ; but at the
game time we are inclined to think that the
editftr of the Republican, if we may be permit
ted to use a few of hit classical expressions,
-wonld of" if lie "could of" pointed out soon
er any violation of tho rigid rules of Kirkham
of which we might have been guilty ? This
will scarcely bo n doubted" by anybody.
Rich Performance. We understand that
the Democratic meeting on Saturday evening,
called tor tho x,lirP30 f selecting delegates
to their State Convention to bo held on the
"lit, was a "rich, rare, and spicy" affair a
rrt'o4"frr-fight arrangement, in which a pe
culiar kind of "concillUtion" and loving kind
ness was exhibited. The resolutions oppose
coercion." the blockading of ports, there
taking of forts, the enf orcment of the laws, and
faror the 'Crittenden-Bigler Proposition."
We are told a great deal of fraternal regard
was expressed for our "dear brethren" who
are in open rebellion in the Southern States,
and great anxiety manifested lest harm should
befall some of them.
Axothir "Secession." During last Satur
day night, four prisoners "seceded" from our
county jail. It seems that one of them, con
fiued in an upper room, succeeded first in ma
king his exit into the jiil yard, by removing
a large stone underneath the window. This,
it is said, he accomplished about 10 o'clock
H? theirwent deliberately to work, and assist
ed the others to dig a large holo through the
wall of the lower story. Having got out of
the building, the party soon dug a hale thro'
the yard wall, and effected their escape, near
tly-lrcak. Their names are James Finloy,
charged with rape; Martin Kelly, charged
with abusing his wife; Amos Pine, for pur
chasing rait under false pretences; and Hugh
1'real, serving out a sentence for rape. John
Cathcart was in another cell, and is secure.
Stodard, whose terra of confinement has just
txpired, was in the room up-sfairs, and knew
of the plot to escape, but was afraid to reveal
it. Nothing has been heard of the "seceders"
ir,ce thus literally "going out into the cold."

Friday the 15th, the following officers were

Tos Naval Resignations. Tha Special

sdemnatory of Mr. Toucey's conduct in ac-
pting the resignations of naval officers in arms
J?''nt the United States at Pensacola, and

f0!L'?1(iel disposition to impeach him, and but
jj the shortness of the time before the 4th of

C7Cap. Morrison, who surrendered the

Nobody believes Mr. Russell had but a com

Ax Important Movement in New Mexico.
The Legislature of New Mexico has passed an
act for the election of delegates to form a
State Constitution, whicii is to IO 4lCtvI lu May
next. The delegates are to meet in June to
discharge the duties which will thus be impos
ed upon them, and the Constitution they form
is afterward to be submitted to the people, lor
ratification or rejection, at a general election
to bo held in September. Thus the way is
rapidly being paved for the admission of this
region into the Union, and after that event
we will have no Territories whose destiny in
reference to the slavery question is doubtful
enough to furnish a decent pretext for further
angry agitation on this subject.
An Unnatural Mother.. While the mall
train from Pittsburgh was going east on the)
14th, a young woman with a small babe in her
arm 8, entered the cars at Tyrone. After tho
train left Huntingdon station, it was discover
ed that tha woman had left tho cars and
that the babe was safely stowed away in the
ladies' saloon, to which the attention of the
coqductor was directed by its cries. The con
ductor was, of course, non-plussed by the un
expected visitor which had been placed in his
charge. The babe, a blooming healthy boy,
about two weeks old, was an object of great
curiosity among the passengers. In all these
troubles gatheriug thick and fast about the con
ductor, a genteel looking lady from PottsvIIIe,
Mrs. Lee, 8greed to take charge of the little
outcast. She stated, that not being blessed
with children, after a raarrisjre of eight years,
she would take it home, surprise her husband,
and bring up tne child as her own. The prop
ositiqn was "gjadjy accepted by the confused
conductor, and the lady took the little stranger
under her kind pare and protection. Before
the boy was handed over, however, he was reg
ularly christened "Abraham Lincoln L.ee," ana
by that name will hereafter be recognised. We
can, however, readiiy imagine the surprise
which Mr. Lee will experience When his wife
reaches home with a. little J boy; So her arms.
The ELECTORAL Vote. The official count of
the votes for President of the United States,
cast in Novemler last, took place at Washing
ton on Wednesday last, in the presence of the
members of both Houses, and a large number
of spectators. Alter the reading of the re
turns, the tellers reported that Abraham Lin
coln, of Illinois, had 180 votes ; John C. Breck
inridge, of Kentucky, 72 ; John Bell, of Ten
nessee, 39; and Stephen A. Douglas, of Illinois,
12 votes. Accordingly Abraham Lincoln was
declared duly elected President of the United
States, for the ensuing four years commencing
on the fourth of March next, and Hannibal
Hamlin, Vice President, for the same period.
The Alabama Forts. Forts Morgan and
Gaines, at the mouth of the Mobile bay, have
been garrisoned by 400 Alabama troops, and
as no enemy is preparing to attack them, the
operation is under the circumstances, a deci
dedly expensive and troublesome one.
The closing years of life are often rendered
wretched by ailments which are trifling in them
selves and easily enred if taken in time. Affec
tion of the liver, stomach, and other organs con
corned in digestion, are the most frequent. They
naturally maKe the suffeicr nervous, irritable and
complaining, and relatives and friends are forced
to bear thehrnntof their ill-humor. The use of
Hoetetter's Celebrated Stomach liitters will prove
an efficient remedy of this evil. It will not only
strengthen the whole physical organization, but
entirely cure the most obstinate cases of Indiges
tion, Diarrhoea, Dysentery, and Liver complaint.
The first physicians in the country are loud in
their praUe of this preparation. Another recom
mendation of the Bitters is that it is so palatable
to the taste that it may be used even aa a bever
age. Sold by druggists everywhere
