    CLEARFIELD, PA., JUNE 15, 1864.
Several frosts occurred in this region dur
ing the past week, doing but little damage,
however, so far as we could learn.
Fingers Cut Off. We regret to learn
that Benj. Spackuiau, EJ , of this boro
had three fingers, of his right hand, cut off
by a circular saw, onTucsdaythe Mth inst.

Unite a iarire number of persons were iu

Treasurer's sale of unseated lands. Ine
lidding was spirited, and some of the tracts
were knocked off at pretty high prices.
A number of our patrons availed theui-H-lves
of the opportunity, when in town last
Slumlay, to settle their accounts, and we
hereby tender them our thanks for their
-greenbacks." We hope that others "will
likewise" during the approaching term

a 1'tlling limb struck the deceased u the
head with such force as to cati.-e death.

right, in this place, was broken into dur

' articles of goods. The thief gained ad
mittance by boring a hole through the back
loor large enough to admit the hand and
turn the key which was sticking in the lock.
V hat the loss is cannot be ascertained, as
the thief took no large quantity of any one
kind of jroods.
Tn k Crops. The growing crops in the
e:u-tcvn part of Pennsylvania present a fine
njijieanince, and give promise of an abun
dant yield. The wheat is, peihaps, a little
j rank in its growth, but rye, corn and
:it look remarkably well. This is the con
dition of the crops in Lancaster, Lebanon.

not le much less than usual perhaps one
t'.nirth and this may yet be effected one
way or the other by favorable or unfavora
ble weather.
Letter from Mr. Scofield.
Our attention having been called, a few
weeks since, to the fact that a rabid seces
sion speech was being circulated in our coun
ty, tinder the frank of the member from
this li-triet, we addressed a note of inquiry
to Mr. Seoh'efd on the subject, and have re
ceived the following reply, which will doubt-l.r-ix
prove a satisfactory explanation t" those
who received copies of the speech alluded to :
Washington, June 7, 1SG4.
I fau Slit : I was not aware, until I learn
ed it from you and others at home, that I
hail been circulating the unpatriotic speech
ti which you refer. I purchased some co- !
tie of :i speech made by Mr. Miller, a U-ni-iii
ineinler from New York, and directed
iliem to le put iu envelopes ready for mail
iii.' and sent to my room. A package label
ed 'speeches of Mr. Miller" were ent, in
accordance with the order, and without be
iii.' opened were superscribed, franked and
:u;iiied. It turns out that those were the
speeches or another member. The mistake,
: r which, it is alleged, "nobody was to
!.!.ii!ie,M occurred in the folding room.
l'lte circulation of the speech, however,
can uo u. harm. It will expose the disloyal
j'iirj.iie.s of the opposition leaders and thus
-treiigthen rather than weaken the friends
"f the tiovernment and Union. I only re
pvt that it goes out aprxireiitly with my ap
. " ". Xery truly yours,
O. W. Scofield.

CORRESPONDENCE OF THE J0UB1IAL.
Letter from Philipsburg, Pa.
Phiupsburo June 13th, 1864.
I'far Joi rxal : Having been tossed to
n l fro on life's troubled sea tore some time
l'a-t. I did not feel much like killing snaiks,
1 c-.acluded to take a respite from the
f f'r a short time, and let the lights of
"! j erhca lism, Johny Boots and JJetrick
l-xiiae, have full sway. They have improv
' the opporttinity,and through the columns
t your coteiujorary have set forth the
Grille of copperheadism, in a style that
coin j. re bended by the most illiterate
'!:k of the nest. No doubt these chain pi
ii" "F copperhead doctrine, have long since
jaiti to the conclusion, that they had crush
'r your correspondent to atoms, and he was
' of their road. But by the will of an all
iea:id infinite God, lam permitted to
breathe the breath of life, and to inform.
'' readers that
Leroi "is himself again,"
Hilled, as formerly, with genuine, true
.1 nion sentiments, and a propensity for
imng up snaiks.
. itice my last tj you, there has been many
Important chatures in the millitary -and po
J'tal world, the brave and gallant Old
Aliy of the Potomac, have met their old
iterate enemy on several hard fought and
Quinary battle-fields. But as usual vic
p was perched upon their banners, and
are now thundering, in their saltpetre,
f lo gates of Richmond. No braver or
rKraniiy, was ever marshalled beneath
ffc LIue vault of Heaven, than the veteran
:uy of the Potomac. And I hope the day
:JU ar detent, when they may enter the
capital, and drive the last vestige of
'"tors from our land. God Grant victory
Je noble and brave Army of the Poto-
iMilitieal world is now making rapid
r Etrides toward the comin? presidential cam
paign. The race for the occupancy of tho
White House for the next four years, bids
fair to be an exciting one. But the excite
ment will be like the handle of a j ug, all on
one side. Two conventions have put their
nags on the course, and a third is looking
about for a 'thorough bred' to run them out
of existence. Abraham Lincoln and An
drew Johnson are the favorites, the odds
being as a 1000 to the little end of indis
inctability whittled down to the significant
point of copperheadism, in their favor, and
that odds will grow greater and greater un
til the first Tuesday of November next,
when in all human probability, they will
come down the ''home stretch" easy win
ners, and not a vestige of their rivals left to
mark the turf.
Our town is still moving onward and up
ward. Our merchants, mechanics and
lumberm en are driving a thriving busi
ness, and the future greatness of this Al-
Iiine village, is fast growing more and more
eyond the ken of mortal man. Our streets
were densely populated on Friday last. The
largest crowd ever seen here, by that vener
able citizen, the "oldest inhabitant," came
'to town' to see the circus, on that day. If
Jeff Davis had seen the outporing of young
men iu our town on Friday last, and all from
the surrounding country within a distance
of ten miles, he would give up the idea of
exhausting the North of material to fill up
the Union army. Though a great many
have gone to the army, from the country a
round us, yet the number is but as a drop
in the bucket to what is yet at home liable
to millitary duty.
The Huntingdon Presbytery meets here
to-morrow. I have just heard that tfergt.

U. S. 1040 BONDS.
These Bonds are issued under the act of Con
gress of March 8th, 1S64, which provides that all
bonds issued under this act shall be exempt from
taxation by or under any State or municipal au
thority. Subscriptions to these bonds are receiv
ed in United States notes or notes of National
Banks. They are to be redeemed ix coin, at the
pleasure of the Government, at any period not
fr.'i than ten nor more than forty years from their
date, and antil their redemption five per cent.
will BR paii ix coin, on Bonds of not over one
hundred dollars annually and on all other Bonds
semi annually. The interest is payable on the
first days of March and September in each year.
Subscribers will receive either Registered or
Coupon Bonds, as they may prefer. Registered
Bonds are recorded on the books of the U. S.
Treasurer, and can be transferred only on the
owner's order. Coupon bonds are payable to
bearer, and are more convenient for Commercial
uses.
Subscribers to4his loan will have the option of
having their Bonds draw interest from March 1st,
by paying the accrued interest if coin (or in U
nited States notes, or the notes of National Banks,
adding fifty per cent, for premium,) or receive
them drawing interest from the date of subscrip
tion and deposit. As these Bonds are
Exempt from Municipal or State Taxation,
their value is increased from one to three per
cent, per annum, according to the rate of tax
levies iR various parts of the country.
At the present rate of premium on gold they pay
OVER EIGHT PER CENT INTEREST
in currency, and are of equal convenience as a
permanent or temporary investment.
It is believed that no securities offer so great
inducement to lenders as the various descriptions
of U. S. Bonds. In all other forms of indebted
ness, the faith or ability of private parties or
stock companies or seperato communities only is
pledged for payment, while for the debts of the
United States the wbuio property of the country
is holden to secure the payment of both princi
pal and interest in coin.
These Imiids may be subscribed for in sums from
SS0 up to any magnitude, on the same terms, and
are thus made equally available to the smallest
lender and the largest capitalist. They can bo
converted into money at any moment, and the
holder will have the benefit of the interest.
It may be useful to state in this connection that
the total Funded Debt of the United States on
which interest is payable in gold, on the 3d day
of March, 1864, was 768.yt5,00'ft. Tbe interest on
this debt for the coming fiscal year will be ?15,
9i,7.126, v. hilo the customs revenue in gold for
the current fiscal year, ending June 30th, 1864.
has been so far at the rate of over 1 00,000,000
per annum.
It will be seen that even the present gold rev
enues of the Government are largely in excess of
the wants of the Treasurer for the payment of
gold interest, while the recent increase ot the tar
iff will doubtless raise the annual receipts from
customs on the same amount of importations, to
5150,000.000 per annum.
Instructions to the National Bank3 acting as
loan agents were not issued from the United
States Treasury until March 29, but in the first
three weeks of April the subscriptions averaged
more than tux million's a week.
Subscriptions will be received by the
First National Bank of Philadelphia, Pa.
Second National Bank of Philadelphia, Pa.
Third National Bank of Philadelphia, Pa.
AND BY ALL NATIONAL BANKS
which are depositaries of Public money, and all
RESPECTABLE BANKS AND BANKERS
throughout the country, (acting as agents of the
National Depository Banks,) will furnish further
information on application and afford every facil
ity to subxcnUrs. May 11, 1364-2mos.
