THE JOURNAL.
CLEARFIELD, PA., JULY 10, 1861.
Isjcred. We have been informed, that Mr.
Henry Hegarty of Gaelics township, was
thrown from his horse, some ten days since,
and very seriously iDjured. He is slowly re
covering. Fourth or Jilt Pkocekdings. The pro
ceeding of the Centre and Pleasant Grove Sun
day School colebration, have been crowded
out this week, for want of room. We will pub
lish them next week.
We call attention to tho card of the Blair
Co. Normal School, printed in another col
umn. . Teachers and others wishing to attend
a good school, will do well to send for a cir
cular before going elsewhere.
The Court House Tower We observe,
that Mr. Thorn, the contractor for building
the Court House, has commenced tearing down
(he tower ; the foundation having given some
under the heavy weight, so as to seriously
damage that structure.
Bible Meeting. The regular Monthly Con
cert in aid of the Bible society, will be held
in the Lutheran Church on bunday evening,
July 11th, at 8 o'clock. The usual collection
will be taken. By order of the President
Geo. W. Rheem Secretary.
A. M. Smith. Mr
Smith's many friends
will, no doubt, be glad to learn,
that he is in
Clearfield on visit. The object of Mr. S's vis
it will be apparent, when reference is made'to
Order No. 6, in our advertising columns. We
hope that our Clearfield county friends will
respond to AlPs request at once.
U. S. Cavalry Recruits Wanted. By ref-
erenco to our advertising columns, it will be
seen that Lieut. Dodge, of the 3d Reg. U. S
Cavalry, is at the Mansion House in Clearfield,
where he will receive recruits for his regi
ment. Persons desirous of enlisting in this
popular arm of our national defense, will call
on Lieutenant Dodge without delay.
To Correspondents. Wo would inform
"spirit of '61," that it is impossible for us to
insert his communication this week, on ac
count of the President's Message and a crowd
of other matter.
"A lover of Truth" wo will publish yours
in our next week's issue.
"Unionist" we thank you' for your sug
gestions, and will endeavor to answer j-our
questions when in possession of full statistics.
Accident. We incidentally learn that a
little son of Mr. Geo. Kyler, on the "cross
cut" met with a very serious accident one day
last week. It appears that three of Mr. K's
children, were taking a ride in a dearburn
wagon, and whilst going down a hill, the hold
ing back strap broke, and the horse ran away
with the ivagon ; throwing the children out,
And in tho fall breaking and cutting the oldest
boy's leg just above the ankle joint, in a most.
horrible manner tho bone protruding lrom
the wound several inches. It was supposed
that amputation would become necessary.
Ono of the other children was slight! hurt.
Celebration at Pennville. Pursuant to
previous arrangements, a large concourse of
Iople assembled at Pennville, on July 4th,
to celebrate our National anniversary.
Tho meeting was organized by appointing
Dr. J. P. Hoyt, President; John Ferguson,
Samuel Widemire, Joseph Hoover, and E.
Fenton, VicePresidents ; and Dr. J. M. Ross,
II. Wall, Geo. Dale, and John Russell, Secre
taries. The following millitary companies were
present : Pennville Union Guards and Lumber
city Susquehanna Rangers.
The exercises were opened with prayer by
Rev. Armor. Tho Declaration of Indepen
dence was then read by John Russell ; after
which the audience was addressed by L. J.
Crans. We will publish the address next
week.
Col. John McQuilkin, being called on, en
tertained the audience for a short time in an
able and patriotic manner.
A vote of thanks was tendered to the Speak
ers, and requested that Mr. Crans furnish a
copy of his address for publication : after
which the meeting adjourned.
BIRDS OF A FEATHER, AC
It is said that 'birds of a feather flock to
gether.' We were reminded of this fact by
the great parade made in the last Clearfield
Republican, about something said or done by a
member of CoDgressf roni Ohio, by the name
of Vallandighaui. Now, we do not doubt,
tliere is quite a fellow feeling between Vallan
digham and tho editors of the Republican.
There is an amazing agreement of sentiment
between them, and to doubt, it was with great
satisfaction that they called the attention of
tbeir readers to what was headed "Spirited
nd Patriotic Letter of Hon. Mr. Vallandig
I'atn, of Ohio.' Now, this Vallandigham is
looked npon by those who know him best, as
a friend of the traitors. Ilia counsels are on
1? calculated to benefit Secession. The other
day he visited tho troops of his own State
(Ohio) near Washington, and they pelted him
WM stone, and drove him out of the camp.
Professing to be a Democrat, he attended
fhe caucus of the Democratic members of
Congress and endeavored to impress them
w'tu his views of stopping the war, and of com
promise with the rebels. But these views
net with but little favor. Mr. II. B. Wright
' Luzerne, strongly opposed them. The oth
rmembers present from the north were gener
a"y opposed to such a policy ,and were in favor
of 6'ving tho Administration a patriotic sup
port, so as to make the war short and decisive.
We highly esteem all who stand by their
country's flag in this hour of trial, bo they Re
publicans or Democrats, but we have very lit
lI respect for those who are always playing
at the hands of the rebels, like Vallandig-
and that squad of politicians who con
trol tho Clearfield RepuU
tcan.
SUMMARY OF WAR NEWS
The Union men ot ija.st lcitncsseo assem
Died in Convention, to consult on matters per
tainine to our present difficulties, and tli
course they should pursue. They also Adopt
ed a declaration ot grievances. The duclara
tion quotes .facts showing that the rijrht of
tree suffrage has been obstructed by the disu
nian government ; that they hud been subject
ed to insults, flags fired upon and torn down
houses ruaeiy entered, lamtucs insulted ana
women and children shot at by merciless sol
diery, citizens robbed and assassinated ; and
in view of these facts it was resolved that the
action of the State Legislature, in passing the
Declaration of Independence, and forming
military league, was unconstitutional and not
binding on loyal citizens ; that in order to
void conflict with brethern, a committee be
appointed to prepare a memorial asking the
consent of the Legislature that the East may
form a separate seat. Arrangements were
made for holding an election in the counties
of East Tennessee for the choice of delegates
to the General Convention to be held at King
ston.
The St. Louis Democrat says the U
nion Home Guards, at a battle at Cole Camp
on the 19th inst., lost 20 killed and wounded
ana j.6 were taken prisoners, ine prisoners
were taken to Warsaw, and were liberated on
taking an oath not to bear arms against the
Southern Confeneracy. The Union force
was 500, and the Secessionist force 100 mount
ed men and 200 infantry. The Secessionist
loss is reported to be 32.
An unprecedented outrage was committed
in Missouri last week. Judge Tiery, 72 years

Tho government has l'nlly determined to

of East Tennessee m favor of anew State
government is regarded here with great inter
est. It is probable that the Union men of
that section and in Kentucky will be able to
raise a large force of cavalry and infantry.
Senator Johnson and Col. Anderson will
take the command of the troops in their re
spective States, the latter oflicer taking the
rank of brigadier General.
June 2. Between three and four o'clock
this morning the troops which have been con
centrating at Hagerstown and Williamsport
for several days past crossed the ford at Wil
liamsport. Gen. Patterson reviewed them
as they tiled past mm. fscoutinjr. parties or
Capt. McMuIIin's Rangers and others selected
from the first IV isconsin regiment, were out
at midnight, and frequently during the night
brisk firing was heard between the 1 ederal
pickets and those of tho enemy on the Virgin
1a mac. 1 ne proper lords Having been ascer
tained, the advance took place before daylight,
the post of honor being assigned to Capt
McMuIIin's Rangers, the first Wisconsin and
the eleventh Pennsylvania. The advancing
columns consisted of the brigades of Abcr
crombie, Thomas and Neglcy. Rangers be
haved remarkably well, getting up close to
the enemy at a distance of only seventy-five
yards. Abercrombie's brigade led the ad
vance, and tho casualities of the conflict were
almost exclusively in tho First Wisconsin
and the Eleventh Pennsylvania regiments.
Col. Jarrett and Lieutenant Colonel Coulter
led the skirmishers, opening upon them at
400 yards. The whole rebel lorces at Martins-
burg, consisting of four regiments of infantry
and one regiment of cavalry, were engaged in
the action, lhey had with them lour pieces
of artillery, part of them rifled cannon, and
were commanded by General Jackson. Gen.
Patterson reports three killed and ten wound
ed, in the engagement.
The seizure of the steamer St. Nicholas, from
Baltimore, proves to have been a bold pirati
cal expedition. W hen the steamer left on
Friday evening she had on board about fifty
secession passengers, most of whom were dis
guised as mechanics going to points on the
Maryland shore of the Potomac. Among the
number was Captain Hollins, late of the U. b.
ship, Susquehanna, who was disgifised, some
accounts say as a woman, and that he retired
to bis berth immediately on going on board tho
steamer. After the boat had left Point Lookout,
Captain nollins threw off his disguise and with
the aid of the passengers seizing the boat,
which was immediately put across to Cone
river, on the Virginia side, nere the rest of
the passengers, not a party to tho plot, were
landed, including the captain of the boat, who
was placed under a guard. The steamer then
went on a piratical crnisc toward the Rappa
hannock river, capturing three vessels on the
way, laden with ice, coal and coffee, with all
of which Capt. Hollins made, his way to Fred
ericksburg. The secession papers here pub
lish accounts of this affair, calling it a bril
liant exploit. Tho accounts say that come
200 rebel troops were placed on board at Cone.
Jult 3. From Fortress Monroe we learn
that great preparations are being made to cel
ebrate the anniversary of American Indepen
dence. Grand parades will be held at camps.
The Fotross guns, the new battery and ships
of war in the harbor, including the Minnesota,
Cumberland, Santee, Roanoke and several gun
boats will appropriately salute tho day. Yes
terday afternoon Lieut. Yelverton and eigh
teen men of the Ninth New York Regiment,
make a reconnoisance from Newport News up
the James river road to within a mile and a
half of Great Bethel. At that point they
came upon five of the rebel pickets, who pre
cipitately fled, leaving behind, with other tro
phies, their hats and coats which showed that
the owners were officers. In the pockets let
ters were found,' just finished, giving a com
plete account of the late advance of 2800 men
from Yorktown to attack Newport News.
They describe the wretched fare of the troops
and the manner in which they were obliged to
beg or steal.
. It is believed, on the authority of the best
scouts in General Scott's service, that the
whole number of aimed confederate troops in.
Virginia Is not more than seventy-five thous

1 ' A thirty ponnder rifle cannon, just mounted
at ashmgton, is at the railroad station, la
belled, "Maj. Doubleday, Williamsport," socu
to be lorwarded.
Jclt 4. The steamer Catalinc, recently
employed as a tran.tport between Fortress
Monroe and .Newport-News, was burned last
evening. General Butler and family had just
landed from a trip to Newport News. 1 ho
vessel is a total loss, the crew having barely
time to escape. The Cataline formerly be
longed to the Bridgeport line, and was owned
by Freeman & Co. She was insured for $25,
000, and had been under contract with the
Government for three months, at $10,000 per
month. Captain Gordon, of the Cumberland,
gallantly removed the rifled cannon from the
burning steamer.
An Old Hero's Spirit Up. Peter Cart
wright is known throughout tho Anglo-Saxon
world as a veteran Methodist pioneer, and a
thoroughly characterized example of Western
life. In a letter to his fellow-veteran, Dr.
Elliott, editor of the Central Advocate, he
writes: "If your own money is dead, bury it,
and preach its funeral sermon, but do not
charge the expenses to me, but to the seces
sionists. I hope Gen. Lyon will catch Tory
Jackson, and hang him on the first tree he
comes to. Union men ought to arm them
selves from head to heels, and shoot down ev
ery traitor they come to. If God will have
mercy on me, I would rather die than that
this glorious government should bo over
thrown. If we must be destroyed, I hope the
JLord will do it, and not give us into the power
oftories. If tho Union men of Missouri need
help to kill traitors, call on Illinois. We can
send you twenty thousand good men and true.
Rivers of blood will flow, but this Union must
stand though the heavens fall." "Uncle Pe
ter" does not stand for verbal qualifications.
Some of these phrases are too strong, but his
meaning is intelligible, and as sound as it is
patriotic.
Hi fled Cannon and Icebergs. When ap
proaching the Banks of Newfoundland, Capt.
Caldwell, of the English screw steam frigate
Mersey, fell in with some icebergs, and thought
it would be interesting to experiment on them
with rifled cannon. Accordingly an Armstrong
shell was fired at a small iceberg about 150
feet high, from the distance of 4 miles.
Such was tho effect, that a block of ice, judg
ed to be of about 100 tons, fell lrom the sunl
it. This large weight falling from the top of
the berg, removed the centre of gravity, which
caused the whole fabric to roll over and rock
to and fro. It was considered a most satis
factory test of the vast range and destructive
ness of these missiles. Futher trials were
made with other projectiles supplied to the
navy, namely : hollow shot, percussion and
Sharpencll, and time fuse shell, molton iron
shell, etc., all tending to exhibit one feature
in modern warfare at sea, viz : the extreme
probability of every vessel bein in flames
soon after she is engaged.
Suffering in Virginia. The Hagerstown,
Md., Herald of Freedom sajs that citizens con
tinue to arrive from various parts of Virginia
with the most heart-sickening accounts of the
state of things in that commonwealth. Men
are fleeing lrom their homes to avoid impress
ment, and leaving all they have in the world
behind them. Others are torn from the bo
soms of their families and forced into the ser
vice of the Confederates, every male inhabi
tant between the ages of sixteen and sixty be
ing taken. Farming operations are almost
wholly neglected, and it is said to be no un
common spectacle to sec horses, cattlo and
other , stock destroying whole fields of wheat
and corn. This is the fate which the conspir
ators of the cotton states and their coa&jutors ,
here had prepared for Maryland, but fortunate
ly for us the federal government extended the
wings of its protection over tho state in time
to avert from us the horrors of such a doom.
The Families of the Traitors. Gen Bean-
regard tent his wife to New York, to stay there
until peace is declared, before he wrote that
infamous proclamation. Jeff". Davis' wife and
her sister have taken a cottage at North Hamp
ton, Massachusetts, for the summer. Col. Ma-
gruder, of tho Virginia army, has sent his
wife and daughter to the north for protection.
This looks considerably as though the arch
traitors of the rebellion had not much cond-
dence in the conspiracv they have engendered
throughout the land. In addition to this,
Yancey is in England, Toombs is disgusted,
Sliuell and Judge Mock are not to be heard of,
and tfie whereabouts of a score of others of tho
southern confederacy is unknown.
Hon. William L. Dayton, our Minister to
France, was known to Louis .Napoleon when
he was in his country. Mr. Dayton lived at
Trenton, New Jersey, which is only ten miles
from Bordentown, where Joseph Bonaparte,
the uncle of the present Emperor, long resi
ded after the overthrow of Napoleon at Water
loo, in lolo. In 183, when Louis Napoleon
was in his country, he was a visitor at his un
cle Joseph's, and made many excursions in
company with him to Trenton and its vicinity.
In that way he became known to Mr. Dayton,
who could have little anticipated that he would
ever be the ambassador to the French Court
over which the exile would preside asEmperor.
Terrible Place for "Varmints. The de
struction of human life in India by wild beasts
is almost beyond belief. Within the last two
years nine hundred and ninety-nine children
have been killed by wolves in the Punjaub, and
a large number of adults. Although the gov
ernment pays a considerable sum for the de
struction of wild animals, they do not seem to
dimmish in numbers. In 18o9 there were
killed 12 tigers, 102 leopards, 176 bears, 1.174
wolves, and 2 hyenas total 1,507. In 1800
there were killed 35 tigers, 103 leopards, 3o0
bears, and 2,0S0 wolves total 2,658.
A Pennsylvania Exhorter. After the
regular services at Camp Curtin in the mor
ning, Captain M'Cauley, of the Susquehanna
Rifles, a local Methodiat preacher, arose and
began to exhort the men, stating that this war
was one of right, and if God was not in it he,
for one, wonld have nothing to do with it.
Then exclaiming with great vehemence, "If
God is with us who can be against us V '.'Jeff.
Davis and the devil," cried out a "wildcat"
boy. The scene which followed cannot be
described. The service closed instantly.
Harvest begun is Illinois. The wheat har
vest commenced in Central Illinois last week,
and it is said to be the best crop ever grown in
that region. The army worm which has done
considerable damage to grass and corn, has
been rather beneficial to the wheat crop than
otherwise. They damaged the grain in but
few instances, and by stripping the blades
from the straw, prevented rust, which would
else have been pretty serious in consequence
of the heavy dews prevailing several weeks
since.
English Editors frequently make curious
mistakes when writing on .American affairs,
and no paper in England contains more ludic
rous blunders than the London Timet. The
last geographical error that wo noticed in that
sheet is where it speaks of Fortress Monroe
being located on Governor's Ialaud, in New
xork harbor.
The Latest News. ;
Received by Tuesday Evening's Mail.
Mr. Vallandigham visited, this afternoon,
7tb, the Ohio encampments in Virginia, and
was greeted with the sight of a hanging elligy,
bearing the inscription : "Vallandigham, the
traitor." When he approached the 2d Regi
ment, he was saluted by a discharge of stones,
and, but for the Interposition of the officers,
would have been somewhat roughly handled
It is to be regretted that violence was resort
ed to, but it is significant, as proving that th
spirit of the soldiers and the people will bear
no treason, or sympathy with treason.
At a Democratic caucus in Washington, on
the 6th, where matters were informally can
vassed, Mr. Vallandigham intimated that he
preferred the preservation of the Union. He
received very little sympathy. The majority
expressed themselves strongly in favor of giv
ing thorough support to the government, and
making quick work, with no long speeches
Of this policy, Mr. Wright of the Luzerne
district of Penn'a, was one of the strongest
supporters. The Kentucky and Maryland mem
bers did not attend the caucus.
Gov. Wise, with 50 men as a body-guard
nnder Capt. Patton, was attacked by the Home
Guard of Sissonville, Kanawha county. Wise
and Patton were mortally wounded, and 40 of
the body-guard killed. This need confirma
tion. A divison of Wise's army was routed
by Gen. Morris several days previous, at Buck
hannon, killing 23, taking 200 prisoners and

The Penn'a Regiments, to which are attach

Forty-five men of the Ohio 3d fell into an
ambuscade of 200 rebels at Middle Fork Bridge
in Western Virginia. After a desperate figh
they cut their way out ; losing 2 killed and
5 wounded. The rebels lost 20 killed.
A report was in circulation for several days
that Gen. Patterson was surrounded by the
rebels; but nothing certain is known. Rein
forccments have, however, been sent forward
for his relief.
It is said, that a grand combined move
ment was to have been made on Manasses
Junction, by flank and center columns, on
Monday last. This needs confirmation.
It is reported, that the rebels have 42 pris
oners, taken from tho various Pa. Regiments
