S.J. ROW,
Publisher of ' Raftsman's Journal."
More Deserters Arrested. "We learn
that several more deserters have been arrest-
til in various sections of the count' within
the pa -it week, and that the total number of
arrests now exceed one hundred and fifty.
At Home. Lieut. Robert A. Mitchell, of
Company E 14'Jth Pa. Vol., is now in thi
place, on a visit to his friends. Lieut. M.
l..ok exceedingly well. Soldiering seems to
asrree with him. ITc says that Capt. How,
Lieut. Liddle, and all the "boys" are wel
and hearty.
LYcicTAiLS Wanted. Company E 149th
1'a. Vol., having received orders to wear
their distinctive badge, (a buck-tail,) would
request their friends in Clearfield county to
furnish tho requisite number, if possible.
If left at the Journal office, they will be
forwarded at an early day.
Snow and Timber. During the past ten
flays we have had excellent sledding, and
much timber has been hauled to the streams.
On Monday night and Tuesday some rain
fell and caused much of the snow to melt.
The prospect for a usual supply of square
timber is, however, rather dull.
Careless Writing. We note from the
recent report of the Postmaster General, an
extraordinary amount of carelessness on the
part of the letter writing community.
Three million five hundred and eight thou
sand were received of dead letters during
the last year; many of which contained
money, deeds, checks, jewelry and other
valuables. Some of them were misdirect
ed, others not directed at all, others un
stamped and others only partially directed.
Thousands of these were returned to the
writers, but the great majority were destroy
ed. These facts should teach the public to
he more careful in their correspondence;
for the amount of suspence.and suffering
occasioned by these lost letters is incalcula
ble ; and officials are censured where the
fault rests with the authors.
Correct the Enrollment. Ey refer
ence to our new advertising columns, the
reader will find a notice of Capt. Campbell,
informing the citizens of Clearfield county
of the meeting of the Enrollment Board in
Clearfield Borough, on tho 20 th, 27th and
-sth days of January, IS63, for the purpose of
correcting the Enrollment Lists. As much
dissatisfaction has existed heretofore in sev
eral of the sub-districts in this county, we
hope that an effort will be made to have
the proper corrections made, when the
Hoard assembles in this place. The sug
gestion of Capt Campbell, that committees
le appointed to attend to this matter, is a
good one. Then go to work at once. As
certain who is likely to be exempted on ac
count of alienage, over age, under age, or
f r physical disability and for previous service
in the army, and those who have left the
districts netting forth the facts in each in
dividual case, properly certified to for pre
sentation to the Board. The responsibility
jf having the lists corrected, now rests with
teh man enrolled, and we trust that it will
k promptly attended to.
Significant Pacta.
It is one of the curious circumstances of
t'le war, iot to be lost sight of that through
an ao;ent the people of Savannah, so lately
"ne of the rebel strongholds, are now solicit-ir-S
sid, as to food especially, in the city of
'ew York. Perhaps this is no more sug
gestive, however, than the fact that they do
nf)t ak in vain. These facts are pregnant
uh significants the prelude to the grand
fret that will succeed tho early collapse of
the rebellion. Is it not time that the North
iiiouM make suitable preparations in. view
UI"it? There are otter Sanvannahs, and
Sherman Is moving. Even for Charleston
Ulere u in the North enough, and there ex-Chris-tain
spirit, under the old flag,

Our Soldiers and the Ladies.
On the morning of Wednesday the 4th
instant, a number of sleds and sleighs were
seen wending their way from Pennville to
Curwensville, filled to overflowing with gen
tlemen ami ladies, with happy hearts and
smiling faces, interspersed with sundry bas
kets and boxes well stored with creature
comforts such as would be prized by weary
and hungry soldiers. In good time the cav
alcade safely drew up at the Susquehanna
House. After some preliminary arrange
ments, the ladies, 20 or 30 in number, form
ed in double line, headed by Abraham Spen
cer, accompanied by a gosxliy number of
gentlemen from Penn township and other
places, started for the soldiers rendezvous.
On arriving at the headquarters, they were
most cordially received by Capt. Kerr, and
other soldiers ; and in the most kiudly man
ners shown throughout their very comforta
ble quarters, in the house lately occupied by
Wm. Irwin, E-. The ladies took great in
terest in examining, in every particular, the
equipments, lodging apartments and cook
ing conveniences the gallant soldiers tak
ing special pains to gratify every wish of fe
male curiosity.
After being fully satisfied of seeing and
beiug seen, the assembled visitors were in
vited to the spacious piazza in front of
the mansion, while the soldiers' were formed
in double line on the lawn, when ail parties
were gratified by listening to an introductory
address from Hon. John Pulton, in which
he informed Capt. K. and his brave com
rades, that, although he was sorry to say
that there were many disloyal people in
Clearfield county, ycthe could vouch for the
loyalty of those present many of whom
had fathers, sons, brothers and husbands
in the army of their country ; sguue of whom
have sealed their devotion to their country's
cause with their blood.
After Mr. Palton closed, Mr. John Rus
sell was introduced, and entertained the au
dience by reading a very interesting address,
in which he heartily lamented the necessity
for the present display of military force in
our midst, but freely endorsed the w isdom
and necessity of the measure trusting that
no relaxing of the present means should be
tolerated until every rebel and rebel sympa
thizer, both north and south, shall hide his
deformed and traitorous head.
When Mr. Russell closed, Capt. Kerr
called on the soldier to give three cheers
for the ladies of Penn, which were given
with a will. After which the company sep
arated, mutually well pleased with the in
terview. A Citizen of Penn.
The New York Bounty". The Common
Council of New York have withdrawn the
liberal offer of one 1,000 bounty, and sub
stituted the old ofler of three hundred dol
lars, and fifty dollars "pocket money." The
number of men to be raised to fill the quota
of the city is three thousand live hundred.
Eailroad and Steamboat Accidents.
There were more people killed and woun
ded by railroad accidents last year than in
any preceding year since 1S5-L One hun
dred and forty accidents occurred ; four
hundred and four lives were lost, and
and one thousand eight hundred and forty-six
persons were wounded. The trans
portation of troops does not account for this
increase ; for the railroads transported quite
as many soldiers in 1SG3, and yet the num
ber of accidents and the number of killed
and wounded were nearly double those of
that year. The steamboat accideuts in 18G4
were less frequent and fatal. They did not
exceed the average for the last ten years ;
but were more numerous than in 1803.
