THE JOURNAL.
CLEARFIELD, PA., APRIL 10, 1861.

J3uilding, on Market Street.
loot Oct. Most of our subscribers are prompt
oaring ones; but we have a few who are tardy
L indifferent In this respect. "After rafting" the
names of good subscribers only will be retained
on our list, and orders for new subscriptions will
hare to be accompanied by the Cash.
Loos. Quite a large number of logs hare
floated past this place within the last week.
We believe they are oot of Anderson's creek,
from whence they were dislodged by "splash
goods," to enable them to be off by the first
rise of water, and out of the way of rafts.
Boy He ei Oo Friday las, a little son of
Mr. J. Robinson of Cnrwensville, was thrown
from a horse and hurt. As the boy was riding
along the pike above that place, a dog fright
ened the horse and caused him to run away
and throw the little fellow off, who was cut and
truiscd a good deal about the head, but receiv
ed no dangerous injuries.
Frix ik. We wertf informed that one of the
men engaged in driving the logs out of An
derson's creek came very near being di owned
4ast week. It appears that be was engaged in
prying loose a gorge, when be was unexpect
edly precipitated into the water, by the log
giving way on which he stood. Several logs
rolled over him, but he succeeded in extrica
ting himself from his perilous situation, hav
ing received but a few slight bruises.
The Weather and River. The weather
has been' quite changeable during the past
week. Several days were warm and Spring
like, and we bad hoped that our farmers and
gardeners would be enabled to commence the
preparing of their grounds for the summer
.crops ; but this expectation was again dispelled
,by some rain on Snnday. On Monday morn
ing the air was cold ; and, we observed, that a
small quantity of snow had fallen on the ridg
es several miles from town. The river, how
ever; rose some eight or ten inches, and quite
a number of rafts passed down on Monday and
Tuesday. The water was still too low for good
running, and quite a number of persons who
started down stream have returned, having
found the water too low to mn.
I'last X Tree. Yes, plant two, three, or
lialf a dozen pf them. If they all grow and
thrive, it will be an easy matter to deplete the
redundancy by removing those that are not
needed. Plant them along the sidewalk to
catch the dust from the hot streets, and to
draw the barbs from the fiery shafts of the
summer's sun, ere they reach jour chamber
window.. Plant them in your front yard, side
yard, or back yard, where you can sit under
ithem and watch tho shattered moonbeams
eiiimmer through their waving spray, and hear
?be night, winds murmur their mystic wooings
with the sighing branches. Plant then wher
ever you can find a spare patch of unoccupied
territory on your premises, large enough to
4ig afvoleia. A tora m'tboat trees is a naked
tiling, unfit to be een. Give nature half a
chance, and she will clothe our streets and
vards with a vestment of verdure that will
gladden our eyes and cheer our hearts through
the long hot days of the approaching summer.

The Comin Revolution. The Louisville
Journal says; The young men whoso Southern
hearts ye re fired arc filling the ranks of volun
teer companies, living on camp fare, throwing
up sand batteries, aud ready to do the fighting ;
but the tempters arc snugly ensconced in office
at Montgomery, and hundreds of miles away
ttoai tb& real scenes of danger. But then
these esged eaglets, who have left their eyrios,
begin to chafe ; when the excitement passes
away and they awake to the sickening con
sciousness that tl.ey have been duped ; when
they look back upon their ones proud and hon
ored positions as the flower of our American
citizenship, and contrast their present dwarfed
political stature ; when they recall the glories
of the stars and stripes, their once devoted
love for the Union of their fathers, achieved
by the pledge of lives, fortunes, and sacred
honors, then will they think of the destroyers
who "turned their paradise into a hell," and
revolution will bo their only remedy tp recov
er their lost positions, their lost honor, and
their lost loyality. When that tjme comes
there will be a terrible retrjbutiqr. fe do not
look to any movement uf this, kiwi aronS
"poor whites" of the S,outb ; it will tmrsta
blaze frpn) the yery heart of "the expectancy
and rose of the fair state." Tbe young, men
of the pofton States will not lw slow to discov

them, and; if the'rlgbt of "revolution' hag been
thoughtlessly entrusted to traitor hands", they
will regain it and gurd It more carefully io

IMPORTANT FROM WASHINGTON.
Sumter to bePro visioned
WARLIKE MOVEMENTS.
The news received by last night's mail, looks
rather warlike. It would appear that the au
thorities of South Carolina will resist the evac
uation of Fort Sumter, unless Major Ander
son leaves the fort on parole of honor. This,
of course, would be tantamount to a surren
der, and equal to an acknowledgment of the
Southern Confederacy. The government had
contemplated the withdrawal of the troops
from Sumter, with the exception of a small
force to take care of the public property ;
which was peremtorily refused by the Caroli
nians. The President hearing these facts, at
once decided that unless they accepted the
plan or order of the government, that the fort
should not be evacuated, thus compelling them
to take it. Under these circumstances, the gov
ernment has no alternative, but either to rein
force and supply Major Anderson with provis
ions, or permit him to be starved out. The
latter course will hardly bo adopted.
There bas, also, been great activity at New
York, in fitting ont vessels of war during the
last week. The Powhatan and Atlantic, took
on board large quantities of provisions, amuni
tion, and men, and on Saturday left the har
bor under sealed orders. The Baltic and Illi
nois were to follow, and other vessels were
getting ready. A fleet of 14 vessels-of-war,
carrying in the aggreate more than 200 guns,
has been ordered to the Gulf. The object of
all these warlike movements is not positively
known. All is mere conjecture, as the pres
ent Administration seems to keep its own
counsels; but, evidently, some active and en
ergetic measures are about to bo undertaken
in some direction, and the events of the com
ing week will bo looked for with a great deal
of anxiety.
Fort Pickens is to held at all hazards.

, The great drawback to persons emigrating to
tbe extreme south and western country, is the
fear they have of the Fever and Ague the most
direful of all diseases. Every day we hear of
persons attacked by this disease, and made help

remedy Dr Hostetter has presented his celebrated
stomach bitters, whose cujative powers for all
diseases of the stomach have been universally ac
knowledged. The Bitters, prepared after a long
experience and deep study, have received the en
comiums of the most eminent physicians, as well
as all classes from every part of our country. To
those who doubt their many virtues, all we can
say is to try them, and judge for themselves re
