iMPOBTW-r Fact. A .eendeman who
has repeatedly suffered from the bites ot
venomous reptiles, while wandering through,
the ruins of Palcnque in Chiapas, says he
was in the habit of enlarging the wound
with a lancet, introducing some bnfferof o.n
ilmmvu applying a literature above the
wound, and taking ten drops of aiiim 'ina in
water every fifteen minutes. The lives or
himself and servant were repeatedly saved
in this way, while four native attendants,
not u-nng these precautions, perished.
Oiling Leather. The Scientific Amer
ican says that oils should not be applied to
dry leather, as they, would invariably injure
it. If you wi.-h to oil a harness wet it over
flight, cover it with a blanket, and in the
morning it will be dry and suppie ; theu r p
ply neat's foot oil in small quantities, and
with so much elbow grease as will insure its
disseminating itself throughout the leather.
A soft, pliant harness is easy to handle, and
lasts longer than a neglected one. Never
use vegetable oils in leather, and among an
imal oils, neat's foot is the best.
A New Company. We learn that Capt.
.T. II. Heasley, at Jefferson line, Clearfield
vMility, Jms irertcision from Governor Cur
itin to raise a volimteereoiiipany. for the one
years' service, in lieiie of the draft. Here,
then, is an opportunity afforded to avoid 1m.'
ing drafted by volunteering. Capf. Jleas'ey
having heretofore been in the service one
ye;tr, possesses the requisite experience for
a good and efficient commander. Persons
wishing to enlist in a tttw vxHujmiiy should
avail themselves of this opjviH tunity, and
call upon Capt. Ileasley at once, as the time
Ibr the draft is approaching rapidly. Ad
dress as above. j

their aged father. Thus, one after anoth

IL'es which, when wild, make their nests
in places totally dark, as in the hollows of
trees, are in the habit, when domesticated,
of clu.-iug"evcry aperature tht can admit
the 1 ght into their hives, and WiU ealy ear
ly on their work in a dark .place. ScUeib
ler has just made an extraordinary discov
ery, which, while explaining in a beautiful
r.ianmv this characteristic of the bee, adds
another to the many striking exemplifications
of that inscrutinable power of instinct which
so often transcends reason itself. Scheibler
found that clear strained honey, which, kept
in the dark, remained unchanged, when ex
posed to light gradually became crystaline
and solidified. undergoing, through the influ
ence of the light, some molecular change
similar to that impressed upon the iodide
of silver of the daguerreotype plate. The
l?e, therefore, in order to preserve in the
fluid form the nutriment it stores up tor its
I rogeny, shuts it up in total darkness.
Auj't John G. Cain. It is with regret
we learn of the death of our friend John
G. Cain, who was killed in the battle at
Peach-tree Creek, Georgia, on the 20th of
July. He was a residentof Janesville, Clear
field county; wkerc lu.s bereaved family, a
wife and oue child, now reside. Adjutant
Cain was a brave and fearless soldier true
to his country's flag. . He was among the
first to hasten to the field in defence of his
government, when assailed by armed trai
trs.and was mustered ito the service of the
United States as a member of the 14th Penn-Fj'lvani-i
volunteers, (9 months men.) He
vas at once appointed Orderly Sergeant of
Company I), in which capacity he served
until the Regiment was discharged. In
August J 802, he again enlisted in the 2.th
l'enn'a volunteers, foraterm of nine months,
in which organization he held the important
appointment of Adjutant which position
he filled with marked ability. He participa
te.! in the battles of Antictam and Chancel
lorsville, where he rendered distinguished
service-!. At the expiration of his term of
enlistment he a second time returned to the
hooin of his family. But his country a
faio beiug in need of men, he enlisted
tnird time, on the 3d of March, in
tf 111th, Pennsylvania Veteran Vol
unteer, as a private, and, as such, partici
pated in all the battles of the Array
f the Cumberland from Tunnell Hill to the
janioiw battle of the 20thT at Peach-tree
j-retk, before the defences of Atlanta where
befell in gallantly defending the honor of
the old Flag. Long may it wave over his
Pjve. is the prayer of his comrade in arms,
"ho w'ntercly lament his death. ,
A French gardener finding a tji.Hr- of wool

ea.-ily removed.
Enrollment and Quota.
Below is a statement of the number en
enrolled in the several sub-district in Clear
field courtj. and the quotas for the same
under the call of July 18th, 1S64 :
Sub-D. Town'ps & Boro's No. En. Quota
70 Beccaria, 1G0 2S
71 Bell, 122 21

91 Bloom, 51 9
' ? Woodward, 72 12
96 Guelich, 92 16
Total, 3117 534
There is, evidently, a mistake in this
sub-district.. In July 1863, the number ac
tually enrolled therein was 192,which would
make its quota 33 ; but, we presume, the
quota will be even more than 33, as the re
cent supplementary enrollment would in
crease the number returned as liable to mil
itary duty. No doubt other errors exist in
the above table.
A New Method of Making "bread,
(rood bread is a good thing, and one not
so easily obtained. A correspondent of the
Aitifricnu Agriculturist says she can make
good bread, and tells how to do it. She
says :
"Instead of protracted agony to twelve
or fourteen hours, it will only be a pleasant
exercise of a few minutes in making it just
two hours for raising and baked in fifty
minutes, and then out comes the loves so
round and light, so tender and sweet, the
whole household will be delighted. The
first thing, and last, in fact, is proper tem
perature," both while making it and in pro
cess of raising. Without heat, internal as
well as external,fermeutation cannot be rap
id enough. Then heat two bricks to one
hundred degrees or more, and place the pan
you make the bread in on them, and so
ktiee'd and work it in the heat with the ma
terials. And now, though the great army
of bread-makers stand up in fiour-y array a
gainst me, and even shake their doughy fin
gers at me, I shall not wince or 'abate one
jot.' 'Success is the test of merit.' as the
world goes, and this past delusive notion
that after bread is light once, it must for
sooth be moulded over into loaves and set to
ii'nvl- airain wall umi-tfii'ip. Tt often induces
sr-urness. certainly multiplies labor and takes
time. ell, then, have two tins well greas
ed, and divide the dough equally (Luse two
quarts tins, which, of couse, requires two
quart of Hour and over for a loaf) and set
t hem to rise by the stove on the hot bricks,
with a piece of carpet over the bricks to
moderate the heat, and then well cover with
warm Widens. In two hours it will be
rising like Aladdin's palace, and when fair
ly brimming full, place it in your oven, and
you will soon have us delicious bread to cat
as one ought to expect out of Paradise. I
claim this as original, and only ask you to
follow the.-cdirectionsand give us the result.
Thus bread making ceases to be the tax on
time and patience it usually is, and the har
assing doubts and fears one usually goes
through with while following th old meth
od, are quite done away with, I could say
much onjthe philosophy of making bread,
in adjusting the "golden means." which,
after all is half. A peep into some of the
closed ovens would, I fear, call out the ex
clamation of the dogs in Landsccr's pictures,
cf ' too hot, too hot."
In the mi niLE. The copperheads st;
tUit tb. flovolanil Convention divides t
ite
the
Union party through the middle. 'H e
conuuend them to the fable of the fly and
the ox. "Does my weight oppiess you ?"
asked the fly. "Really, I was not aware of
jour presence," was the bovine reply. Af
ter looking ereAHly over the names of all
those who took part in the Cleveland fizzle,
we are unable to tind a single man who can
prove that he ever co-operated with the
Republican Union party. They were made
up of Copperheads who always voted the
Democratic ticket, and Garrisonians who
never voted at all. We shall have the same
difficulty- in whipping that ticket that a
friend of ours did in whipping his baby.

Gold in Wales. In cutting what is
called a "lobby," or entrance to an adit, in
the works of the Welsh Gold Mining Com
pany, an ancient gutter Was intersected.and
from the diluvium with which this gutter
was filled several boulders of quartz were
taken, all rich in gold, and one, not 103
pounds in weight, contained 18 ounces of
gold, or at tho rate of 360 ounces per ton.
The mountain abounds in these gutters, and
enormous results may be expected from them.
Notwithstanding the Mormons arc laying
by grain for a season of famine, food is now
pretty well to starving prices. The JMscret
Xews of July C quotes flour at $15 per 100
pounds; wheat. $5 per bushel ; com, $4.50
per bushel; pork, 50 cents per poune ; su
gar, 1 ; butter, SO cents; whisky, $10 per
gallon.
290. Those who are impressed by coin
cidences, may note that 2,90 is the highest
point touched by gold during the war, and
"290" was the original name of the Ala
bama, which, after flourishing for a time
like gold speculations, has gone down
forever.
Argument in company is generally the
wk sort of conversation, and in book the
worst fort of reading.
The Washington Republican says that on
Wednesday night CapL. Hatch, of the caval
ry, captured two secesh soldiers, who were
sfereted about eight miles beyond Rock
ville, and were being fed and cared for by
the secession young ladies of the neighbor
hood. "Surgeon," said a western soldier with a
bullet in his leg and another in the at"1;
"the rebels came very near hitting me.'
"And, surgeon," saill another, whose nose
was shot off, "they came nearmissiug me."
It is said that a Yankee baby will crawl
out of his cradle, take a survey of it, invent
an improvement, and apply for a patent
before he is six months old. -
