THE JOTJENAL.
CLEARFIELD, PA., MARCH 20, 18G1.
Removal. On tho 1st of April, the "Raftsman's
Journal'' office will bo removed to the second Bto
ry of Graham's new brick building, on Market
street, nearly opposite the "Mansion House."
Look Out. Most of our subscribers are prompt
navineoncs; bat we have a few who are tardy
or indifferent in this respect. "After rafting" the
names of good subscribers only will be retained
,n our list, and order3 for new subscriptions will
have to be accompanied by the Cash.
Fotnd. The body of a man found in the
river at Muncy is identified as that ot Wesley
Toner, who was lost at the Rolling Stone in
this county, on the 11th of December last.
Stage-driver Drowned. From a private
letter wc learn, that several weeks ago, a stage
driver, stage and horses were lost in crossing
the Missouri River, 7 miles above Nebraska
city. The drivers name, it is thought was
Williams, and that he formerly lived in Cur
wensville in this county. '
A. M. Hills desires to notify his friends and
patrons that he will be in his office in Clear
field, (opposite the Clearfield House,) until
after the June Court, with the exception of
the second weelt in May. ' Persons desiring
his services ..will; do well to call, before that
time. s ' February 27th, 18G1-Ct.
Rolling Stone. We have been Informed
that the Rolling Stone below Salt Lick and
just at the head of -Birch Point, wan blasted
out one day last week.' Our raftsmen, no
doubt, will bo glad to' learn 'of this removal,
as it will afford them a good, landing at Birch
Point, immediately above Butter milk tails.
Ix trouble. -We incidentally learn that,
one day last week, several boys of our Bor
ough amused themselves by breaking in the
glass at the Town Hall wifh stones and sticks.
Tha school directors being informed of the
fact, had them '-invited" to Justice Fortcr's
office. After a hearing, they gave bail for
good behavior. We hope this will be a warn
ing to others. . ., '

The Recext Electioxs. We have beard a
great deal about reaction in the North against
t!e Republican party. We have been told that
if Hie election were now to be held, there
wculd be an overwhelming majority jgainst
Mr. Lincoln. Elections have boen recently
held inN. Hampshire andN. York, and the re
turns have been received in sufficient quanti
ties io enable us to ascertain the general result.

Chills A.vn Fever ! Chills and Fever!! One
of the greatest remedies that has ever been laid be
fore the public, foricver and Ague, and which
have received the highest encomiums from the
press and the people, is Dr. J. llostetter's Stomach
Bitters. Who would endure the tortures arising
from this terrible disease, when it can be so easily
cured : Hho would nave sleepless nights, burn
ing fevers and chills, alternately, when a remedy
can be obtained for a mere tritle ? And jet how
many famines linger out a painful existence un
der this deadly blight, and do nothing but gulp
down Quinine, until it becomes as common as their
daily meals, and yet they are not relieved. None
but the foolish and weak would hesitate to procure
these valuable Bitters, and save themselves intense
agony. Sold by druggists and dealers generally ev
erywhere. See advertisement in another column.

FORT PICKENS. :
DANGEIt OP A COLLISION.
The Brooklyn Waiting for the Event.
Washington, March 17, 1SG1.
The latest information from Fort Pickins is,
(altho contradictory) that that fortress is in
vested with thirteen full batteries, includinj
Forts Barrancas and McRae, all of which com
ma nd Pickins and the offing. Ifthis should
prove to be correct, the Brooklyn and Sabine
can not land the troops and supplies they have
on board or have any further communication
with the shore,without having a fight ; in fact,
according to the dispatches received, a mo
mentary collision is apprehended. The ves
sels laying oil Fort Pickins have 500 Govern
ment troops and marines aboard, which Sec
Holt had ordered to be landed at the first signs
of a hostile movement,but were not landed bo-
cause assurances Were given that no attack
was meditated, and to satisfy the Peace Con
vention. The Government, however, has no
intention of abandoning Fort Pickins, and, in
all probability, will hId it at all hazards.
FORT SUMTER.
It is reported that the Cabinet have made a
final decision in regard to Fort Sumter, and
that the matter of its evacuation now rests
with Mr. Lincoln." The withdrawal of Maj.
Anderson and his men is likely to be trouble
some, as it is said that Gen. Beauregard, the
commander of the seceders, will refuse to per
mit the evacuation unless Maj. Anderson's
band will surrender as prisoners of war. This
is supposed to be a mistake : but the peacea
ble removal will be perplexing to say the least
the revolutionists having the control of the
inlet to the harbor of Charleston.

MM HE TRIBUNE FOR 1861. PEOSPEC- ?
JL T US. The XXth Vo'ujiic of the Wecklv Tri-
bunc commenced with the issue of Sept. I. Dur
ing the past year The Tribune has been obliged to
devote quite a large proportion of its space to pol
itics, but, we shall soon bo able to foreiro Political
discissions almost entirely, for months if not for
3-ears, and devote nearly all our columns to sub
jects of less intense, but more abiding, interest. A-
mong these, wc mean to pa v especial atrention in
I. Education. The whole subject of Education.
both Popular and General, will be discussed in
our columns throughout the yr iMi, and wo
hope to elicit in that discussion some of the nro-
fuundest thinkers and the ablest instructors in our
country. It Is at once our hope and our resolve
that the cause of Education shall receive an im
petus from the exertions of The Tribune in its be
half during the year ISGI.
II. Agriculture. Wc have been compelled to
restrict our elucidations of this great intere.-t
throughout lS:'0.and shall endeavor to atone there
for in 18(51. Whatever discovery, deduction, de
monstration, is calculated to render the reward of
labor devoted to cultivation more ample or inoro
certain, shall receive prompt and full attention.
III. Manufactures, Ac. We hail every in
vention or enterprise whereby American Capital
and Labor are attracted to and ai vanlageou.-ly
employed in any department of Manufacturing or
Mechanical Industry as a real contribution to tho
Public Weal, insuring ampler, steadier, more con
venient, more rem uncrating markets to the Farm
er, with fuller employment and better wages tu
the Laborer. The progress of Mining, Iron-Making,
Steel-Makiiifr, Cloth-Weavinsr, Ac. in our
country and the world; shall bo watched and repor-
leu oy us wmt nu caruesi ami nciive sympathy.
IV. Forfign Affairs. We em ploy the best cor
respondents in London, Paris, Turin. Berlin, and
other European Capitols, to transmit us early and
accurate advices of the great changes there silent
ly but certainly preparing. In spite of the ure s-
sure of Domestic Politics, our News from the Old
World is now varied and ample; but we shall
have to render it more perfect during the event
ful year just before us.
V. Homb News. We employ regular paid cor-
respondents in California, at the Isthmus of Da-
rien, in the Rocky Mountain gold region, or wher
ever else they seem requisite. From the more ac
cessible portions of our own country, wc derive
our information mainly from the multifarious cor
respondents of the Associated Press, from oar ex.
changes, and the occasional letters of Intelligent
friends, vve aim to print the cheapest general
newspaper, with the fullest and most anthentin
summary of useful Intelligence, that is anywhere
afforded. Hoping to '-make each day a critic on
the last," and print a better and better paper from
year to year, as enr means arc ftcadily enlarged
through the generous co-operation of our many
well-wishers, we solicit, and shall labor to d
serve, a continuance of public favor.
