EW Goods. The first prxxls of the serf
son have just been opened at Boynton &
Showers' in Clearfield. The members of
thu firm are clever and accommodating gen
tlemen, and do their utmost to cater to the
wants of the public always ready, and al
ways willing to wait upon customers. Their
pre-ent stock of goods embraces the latest
and most fk-sbionable styles, and will be sold
at vejy reasonable rates. See their adver
tisement in another column.
Shof.t Aoaix. It seenn to be our for
tune to be left short of workmen very fre
iuent!y during the progress of the war. On
JlmJay morning 8. ' Shope, one of our
hanls, left for Waterford to enlist in the
army of the Union. This is the fourth
young man that has gone into the military
service of his country, out of the Journal
offioe. Whether this exit is the re-u!t of
our precepts, or not, we ieave our readers
tojadpe. .
R. Fent Ward. This gentleman, and
soVlier, was home on a fchort visit la-t week,
and looked well. Fent enlisted in the 1st
I'enn'a Rides (old Bvcktails). at the break
ing out of the war, a a private was after
wards promoted to a 1st Lieutcnantcy, and,
we are infurmed, is now commissioned as
Captain of company K, of that famous old
regiment. The Captain has our Lest wihes
Ibr his future welfare, and may he ever
,rove true and faithful to his country and
the cause which he has espoused, and wear
with honor the merited distinction which
has been conferred npori him.
The Weather. It would seem ihnt the
"fcroudd-h"g" didn't tis. up the weather!
very permanently this season, or, at least, j
it has been of rather a tickle nature during i
the pat wek. Home snow fell, but t he
warm sun ana mild air did rot permit it to
miiaiti iontr. ferhaps his hoghip "niiulii
ed " in a little ''laer," or some other --t'.iii-u'enr,
on the 2d of February, winch may
Lave had the e fleet f obscuring hi vision,
and caused him to lo-Jc in a: gutter in-to:id
vi'ieturning to his burrow according to :m-e.t-nr
custom and, as a consequence, tlie
weather has leei in a '"reeling" condition
too. Mr. Ground hog had better look to his
laurels as a "weather indicator" or he will
lose his former reputation.
P. S. Yesterday (Tuc-day'i we had snow,
t low, freece, thaw, and sun-hice. and it was
iuite cold doling the past night. and this
ii:Mi'.riti. That "weather indicator" mav
suiier up" and give small ''spell yet
to partially redeem his recitation ;
but we
liave mtle faith m his promises.
OfR Qi"t'fA. We have frequently refer- f you had taken that eminent statesman, that
rod to the matter of raising the quota of j only for a '"i .o agre majority" of one hun
(Jlearficid by volunteers, but it scorns our j dred thouan ! word I Lave- been Governor of
suggestions have been unheeded. And what Ohio, with you ; and then have had tliat
is the result of this neglect? .Simply, that other 'Jniisr that came so ni-h 'only fif
we are daily losing men out of the county, j tin thousand short j boiur fJoveinor of the
tt ii.'i drilif in u.h .Mnik.M.... .....1 . l. .K .f . I O! ) . ! ... . . t ,
v in cum ii'uiiLH..., dim auirut.;i i ia !
j ay the largest local bonuries leaving this
..uuiy to furni-h her full quota by a draft.
This should not be so! Our citizens .should
i'lllow the example of those of other coun
ties. They should make a united effort to
procure volunteers, ami thus prevent the
; icaiit unbeuclicial exit from this county.
From information received from different
t-iwuships we have no heitoney in saying,
d.at wc believe, that at least oilmen have
: It our county within the last three- weeks,
to obtain the bounties ofrered in other local
lot's. How is this drawing off of our popu
lation to be. r rt-ventedi' It can be done in
l'Vo :V:y-. First, by the county authorities
Serine a local bounty ; and 2d, by the citi
t n of the several sub-districts raising such
b.unty. Or. if neither of these proposi- i
jyiis bedeenied feaaibie, let there be aeom
' !;i .-J mi scriptioi) )y the county and citi
zens, which in the -ageregate would equal
"lie amount that woufd have to be appropri
ate! by them seperately. This latter sug-go.-uoii
would, pt-rh ips, be preferable, as 'it
""ouid uot fall so heavy on individuals as if
titrate subscriptions were alone resorted to.
-o as this is a matter that interests every
uiua. woman, and child in the county, anil
js the time tor the draft is rapidly approach
jjib". we hoj.e there will be no furtlier delay
to ilm taking of proper measures to fill
the quota of Clearfield county by volun-!-,
and thereby prevent the draining otf
par war-goiug population without bene
tttiir oureouiitv in the kast. We have
''hen reeun-ed'to this subjeet of late, that
-' had
nine de'.iey in doing so now ; but
if

"ytal niiionance to all, we once more direct
"tir attention thereto. And now, the onlv
istion that remains, is Will vou make
n eaurt to raise the quota oi" Clearfield
Mty by volunteers and thus retain those
t," are straying off, or do vou desire that
t .e whole number be made up by a draft?

that there was a "cruel war' iroing on. and

But you had conscientious scruples, of a

covering a period of seventy-two years, and
all told except the administration of an ob
scure individual bearing the name of Bu

space of three and a half columns of a news
paper. I do not wonder that the doinsrs of!
the administration, above mentioned, were
not "consideied in."' for Piedrick's motto
seems to be "prolixity is the soul" of cop
perheads, and it would h ave been but a
speck towards recording the stealing by

Although not disposed to favor or recommend
Patent Medicines ia general, through distrust of
their ingredients andeifects; I yet know of no
sufficient reasons why a roan may not testify to
the benefits he believes himself to hare received
from any simple preparation in tbe hope thathe
in:ij thus contribute to th benefit of others.
1 do this the more readily in regard to Hoof
laud's German Litters, prepared ty D. C. M.
Jackson, of this city, because I was prejudiced a
gainsttbem for many years, under the impres
sion that they were chiefly an alcoholic mixture.
l aw iudebted to wy friend Robert Shoemaker,
Etq , for the removal of tais prejudice by proper
tests, and f r enconritgoTnent to try tbein. when
suffering from grata;iU long continued debilitr.
1 he use of tbiee battles of these Bitters, at the
beginning of the present vertr. was followed by
evi iect relief, and restoration to a degree of bod,
ily and mental vigor which I "had notf!t for six
months before, and had almost despaired of re
gaining. I therefore thank liod and my fried
for directing me to the use cf them.

ATTENTION, SOLDIERS !
AND- TIIE FRIEMDS OF SOLDIERS.
We eU the attention of all having relations or
friends in the army to the fact that -UoorLA.i&'a
German Bitters'' w ill cure tine tenths of the dis
eases induced by exposures aud privations inoi
dent toeanip life. In tbe lists, published almost
daily in the newspapers, on tbe arrival of tbe
sick, it will be noticed that a very large propor
tion are suffering from debility. . Every case of
that kind cii be readily cared by lloo2;ujd 's Ger
man liitiers. Diseases resulting from disorders
of the digestive organs are speedily removed. We
have no hesitation iu stating that. "if these Hitters
were freely used among our soldiers, hundreds of
lives might be saved that oiherwise will be lost.
We call particular attention to the following re
markable and well authenticated cure of one tho
natiou's heroes, whore life, toubebis own Ian
guage, '-has been sved by the liitters :-'
Ilaoeuhia. August 23rd. 1S62.
Mxsr..Ttixfit E&JHs. Well. geDtlemeu,your
Hoofland's German Bitters has saved my lif.
There is no mistake in this. It is vouched for
by numbers of my comrades, some of whose name
are appended, and who were fully cognirantcf
all the circumstances of my case. I am. and
have been tor the last four years, a member of
Sherman's celebrated batterv. and under the Im
mediate command of Capt. K Ji. Ayres.- Throneh
Io Cipo sure attendant upon my duties, I was
attacked in November last with inflammation of
the lungs, and was for seventy-two days in the
hospital. This was followed by great debility,
heightened by an attack of dysentery. I was then
removed from tbe White House, and sent to this
city on board the Stealer -Stae of M jine,'froiB
which I landed on the 2Sth of June. Since that
time l have been about as low as any one ooald
be and still retain a spark of vitality. For a
week or more I was scarcely able to swallow any
thing, and if I did force a morsel down, it wai
immediately thrown up again.
I could not even keep a glnss cf waier on my
stomach. Life could not last under these circum
stances; and. accordingly, the physieians who
had been working faithfully, though unsuccess
fully, to rescue me from the grasp ef the dread
Archer, frankly told me they oocld do no more
for me. and advised me to see a clervmaE. an;!
to make such disposition of my limited funds as
best suited me. An acquaintance who visited me
at the hospital. Mr. Frederick Steinborn. of Sixth
below Areh Street, advised me. as a forlorn hope,
to try your Bitters, and kindly procured a bottle.
From the time I commenced taking tbein th
gloomy shadow of death receded, and I am now
thank God for it. getting better. Though I have
taKtn hut two botiles. h:ivo gained ten pounds,
and I feci eanguire of being permitted to-rejoin
my wife and daughter, from whom I have beard
nothing for eighteen mouths: for. gentlemen, I
ain a loyal Virginian, from the vicinity of Front
.Royal. To your invaluable Ei'ters I owe the er-t.-iinty
of life which has taken place of vague feare
to your Bitters will 1 owe the glorious privi
lege of again clasping to my bosom these woo r
dearest to me ic life.
Very truly years, Isaac Miixwe.
