CLEARFIELD, JAN. 29, 1862.
Defeated Plot to Resder our Catalrt
asd Artillery Useless. On Thursday night
the 16th, between eight and nine o'clock,
while the army of the Potomac was enveloped
in a dense fog, a mysterious occurrence took
place in some of our divisions across the river.
It was ascertained that the halters of many of
the horses in the 1st New York cavalry regi
ment in Gen. Franklin's division ; of the 8th
Illinois cavalry regiment in Gen. Sumner's
division, and ol the batteries, were cut, the
horses running loose all over the encamp
ments. Upon examination it was found that
the baiters had been cut with sharp knive's,
and that several individuals must have been
engaged in the business.. The 1st New York
cavalry had nearly two hundred horses cut
loose, five or six of which have been lost. It
is believed that there was some secret plan on
foot the successful execution of which would
have redounded to the benefit of the rebel).
It is said that a demonstration on our pickets
that eveniag was contemplated, but the at
tempt to impair the efficiency of our cavalry
and to cripplo our artillery was discovered in
time by the horses running through the camps.
Certain residents of the vicinity, known
Southern sympathizers, are suspected of com
plicity in the affair, and have been arrested.
The Blockade. Rebel testimony to the
vigorous efficiency of tho blockade of the
Southern ports accumulates constantly. The la
test is from the Memphis .,7pea,wbich declares
that"therisk of running the blockade at the pre
sent is too great, and comparatively few are wil
ling to encounter the losses that are so apt to fol
low the experiment." It is said that the reb
els have prepared a list of the skills, shallops
and scows that have evaded tho vigilance of
oar cruisers, which they will lay on the table
of the members of the English and French
Parliaments, with the hope of inducing those
nations to raise the blockade. This fraudu
jent list can easily be offset by such testimony
as tho above, which is reluctantly wrung from
those who have the best means of knowing.
Relief for Ireland. An earnest effort is
making to send a cargo of breadstuff and pro
visions to Ireland, for the relief of tho suffer
ers from famine there, and, in order to giro
effect to it, a bill was introduced into the New
York State Assembly, appropriating $100,000,
and constituting the Governor, tho Comptrol
ler, and tho Sccrotary of State a Commission,
to soe that it is properly expended. Private
letters by the last two or three steamers give
a much more deplorable picture of the famine,
and its effects, than is presented by tho public
journals.
Died. Intelligence has been received from
Richmond that John Tyler diod suddenly in
that city last week, lie was born in Charles
county, Va., in 179, which would make him
72 years of age at the time of his death. Ty
ler has held quite a number of honorable po
sitions in both tho State and National councils ;
but, unfortunately, be died a traitor to his
country. Ilia name and his shameful treach
ery are both confined to the region of rebel
lion, and nono but his followers in crime will
mourn his loss.
Tiik French is New Orleans Advices
from New Orleans state that the French resi
dents in that city are anxious to escape there
from that they have held a meeting to take
measures to effect this and that they have
put themselves in communication with the
Union troops of Ship Island, for tho purpose
of obtaining assistance from the Federal Gov
ernment. Harbor Defences. There aro now moro
heavy guns in position in New York harbor
than there were at Sebastopol when attacked,
or than aro now in the world renowned forti
fications of Croustadt. The flro of two hun
dred and fifty guns can bo simultaneously con
centrated at one point upon a floet attempting
tho passage of the Narrows.
Released Prisoners. The wounded pris
oners who camo down-from Richmond some
days sinco, aro in the hospital at Fortress
llonroe, and all aro doing as woll as could bo
expected. Nono aro thought to be in a dan
gerous condition, and a few have so far re
covered that they were sent north.
Tub Contrast. The loyal States pay $20,
000,000 for Schools annually, and havo 5,000,
000 of children at school, whilo tho disloyal
do not expend $1,000,000, and have but G00,
000 children at school. There aro more chil
dren in school in Ohio, than in all of tho elev
en disloyal States.
A Nbw Rebel Law. A law was recently
passed by tho Rebel Congress which prohibits
tho publication of war news in the newspapers.
W presume that ignorance on such subjects
is moro advantageous to tho rebels than
knowledge, especially such news as tho defeat
of Zollicoffei.
Col. Brown. It will bo a subject for regret
to many that Col. Brown, tho brave defender
of Fort Pickens, is compelled by tho state of
his health to bo relived from his command.
His illness was brought on by exposure while
in tke discharge of his arduous duties.
U. S. Vessels. An official despatch from
Com. Goldsboro, rebel, was received at Wil
mington, N. C. which says that 31 small
steamers and 16 sail vessels wero inside, and
7 largo steameis were ontside of Ilatturas,
More are reported in Pamlico sound.

Presevts from 'japan. Tho government
received from the Emperor of Japan, as pres
ents, two elephant tusks eight foet in length, a
sword laid with gold and pearls, and other ar
ticles of minor value, including a brief ad
dress or letter to tho President.
Capt. Williams of the 12th Indiana, is a pris
oner at Richmond. In a letter he says the pri
soners have little to eat and are litterally eat

yULCANITE BASE FOE
ARTIFICIAL TEETH.
Attention is especially called to this article, as' a
substitute for gold in inserting teeth. Many per
sons who have tr.rd all kinds of metalic bases pre
fer this, and in those cases where it is applicable,
it will in a great measure become a substitute for
gold, silver or platina. Its chief advantages are.
cheapness, lightness and perfect adoption to tho
mouth ; it having a soft fleshy feel to the parts of
the mouth with which it comes in contact.

NEW-YORK TRIBUNE NEW VOLUME
On the seventh of September, 1861, THE
NEW-YORK WEEKLY TUIBUNEcommencedthe
twenty-first year of its existence; the THE DAI
LY TRIBUNE being some months older andTUE
SEMI-WEEKLY TRIBUNE somewhat younger.
For more than twenty years, this journal has la
bored in what its conductors have felt to be the
cause of Humanity, Justice and Freedom, endeav
oring to meliorate the condition of the oppressed
and unfortunate, to honor and encourage useful
exertion in whatever sphere, and, to promote by
all means the moral, intellectual and material ad
vancement of our country. It has aimed to be
right rather than popular, and to espouso and
commend to-day the truth that others may not be
willing to accept till to-morrow. In pursuing
this course, mistakes have doubtless been made
and faults committed ; but, having in all things
incited our readers to think and judgo for them
selves rather than adopt blindly our own or oth
ers' conclusions, we believe we may fairly claim
for this journal the credit of having qualified its
readers to detect and expose even its own errors.
To develop the minds of the young by the most
general, thorough and practical Education, and to
encourage and stimulate Productive Industry,
through free grants of Tublic Lands to actual set
tlers and cultivators, as also through the protec
tion of immature or peculiarly exposed branches
from too powerful foreign competition, are among
the aims to which this journal has adhered
through good and evil report, and which it stead
fastly commends to American patriotism and
philanthropy.
As to the Civil War now devastating our coun
try, we hold it to havo originated in a Rebellion
more wanton, wicked, inexcusable, then was ev
er before known a Rebellion in the interest of
the few against the many a Rebellion designed
to raise higher the walls of casto and tighten tho
chains of oppression. Having done all we could
without a surrender of vitsil principle to avoid
this War. and witnessed tho forbearance, meek
ness, and long-suffering with which the Federal
Government sought to avert its horrors, we hold
it our clear duty, with that of every other citizen
to stand by the nation and its fairly chosen ru
lers. and to second with all our energies their ef
forts to uphold the Union, the Constitution, and
the supremacy of the laws. And, though the Re
bellion has become, through usurpation, deception,
terroism, and spoliation, fearfully strong, wo be
lieve the American Republic far stronger, and
th.it the unanimous, earnest efforts of loyal hearts
and hands will insure its overthrow. But on all
questions affecting the objects, the scope, and du
ration of this most extraordinary contest, we de
fer to those whom the American People have
clothed with authority, holding unity of purpose
and of action indispensable in so grave an emer
gency In a crisis like tho present, our columns must
be largely engrossed with the current history of
tho War for the Union, and with elucidations of
its more striking incidents. We shall not, how
ever, remit that attaption to Literature, to For
eign Affairs, to Agricultural Progress, to Crops,
Markets. Ac. which has alrcadv. we trust, won for
THE TRIBUNE an honorable position among its
cotcmporaries. Our main object is and shall be
to produce a comprehensive newspaper, from
which a careful reader may glean a vivid and
faithful history of the times, not merely in the do
main of Action but in that of Opinion also. As
our facilities for acquiring information increase
with years, we trust that an improvement in the

I have cured with it, in my pracltrn, mnst ef the a

effects truly wonderful in the enre of Vrnertal and Jfce

cured him in fire weeks. Another was attacked by
ondary symptoms in his nose, and the alrwadoo bad

disorder would soou reark lib brain and kill him. fiat K
yielded to my administration of your iWrsapartlia; U
ulcers healed, and he is well again, not of courts without

from this poison in her hones. They had become so mb.
