Tribune Almanac. This most valuable
annual publication id now ready for delivery.
Its appearance w3 delayed on account of
the difficulty of getting the official returns
of the last Presidential election, which it
contains in full. But it has lost noth'mg by
the delay, as it is now replete with much
valuable information. Price, 25 cents. Ad

copies fur sale at this office.
Stabbing Affair. An unfortunate ren
ct.nter took place at Pennvill, this county,
on the evening of the l'Jth January, between
E. W. Brooks and Addison Weaver, in
which Brooks .stabbed Weaver in the ide
with a kuifo inflicting a serious wound. It
seems this unfortunate affair grew out of
some difficulty relative to a pair of boots
which Weaver had left with Brooks to be
mended. We forbear making any comments,
as it likely the matter will be investigated
by the legal authorities.
Fire at CVrwexsville. On Sunday
morning last, about three o'clock, the large
frame building, formerly the residence of
Viiu. Irvin, Esq., which was occupied by the.
soldiers at Curwensville, was burned down.
It caught fire from the chimney, in the up
per part of the building. It was imposible
to save it. It was occupied by two compa
nies. One of them has been sent to Phil
iiislurg, and the other is hero, where, it
i supposed it will remain for some time.
The boys are at present ia the Court house,
where they will remain until other quarters
can be procured.
The Draft.
Mr. Editor. As another draft is to take
plnce on the 15th of the present month it
tvtnis to me a mectting should be held with
a view of tilling the quota of the county with
volunteers. Every man is either directly or
indirectly interested in doing this, and if a
united effort, regardless of politics, were
made. I believe the quota of Clearfield county
could be filjfii. before the day of the draft
vmes on. I throw out thoso hints for the
consideration of my fellow citizens, and
hope that a County meeting will be called,
f"r the purposed de.-ignated, at an early
'hy. What do you all say ?

(-'i.f.arfielh, Jan. 25, 1865. Our old and
"'eome friend, Mr. Clark, agent of the
tyufvlvaQia Bible Society, paid this place
1 nit on the second Sabbath of this month,
id presented the claims of the Society in
two of our churches. On the following day
commenced calling on our citizens, ask-
aid to his cause. From the report made
t'V him we find that the pec pie worshiping
m the different churches in this place con
tributed the liberal sum of $179 25. He
w 'il take this opportunity of returning his
sincere thanks to all for their kind attention
aid liberal contributions for the spreading
"fthe Word of God. And he further says
'W ho has not found anywhere a warmer
-come or a better disposed community
jtan he has found in these parts of Clear
county through which he has traveled ;
"skIht has he met with a better, success
e'here.

THE
The IleralF Cape Fear river correspon
dent gives details of the important success
theie of our army and navy. Besides all
the guns and ammunition captured in the
forts, immense supplies of rebel provisions
were also secured, and much other property
of great value. The rebel troops in front
of General Terry made a slight demonstation
on last Monday, but it amounted to nothing.
Deserters report that two rebel divisions
from Lee's army at Richmond lately passed
through Wilmington on their way to South
Carolina. General Terry's army is in fine
condition, and is being rapidly prepared for
further, operations. Admiral Porter's gun
boats were gradually working their way up
towards Wilmington. Deserters continually
report that tho rebels are evacuating Rich
mond. Whether this be correct or not, it
is generally understood that much of the
rebel machinery for the manufacture of war
material, and considerable, of the government
archives have been removed from there.
The Richmond Examiner says: "The ex
pedition of our iron-clads down the river had
been designed to break the enemy's pontoon
bridges, and thus destroy his communica
tions, and to take advantage of the ascer
tained fact that he had withdrawn most of
his naval force from tfie river, probably to
Wilmington, leaving but one iron-clad and
some wooden vessels in the channel above
Varina. The recent freshet had washed out
a portion of his obstructions, and thus open
ed the way to the attack on his pontoons.
We may say here that the expedition is un
derstood to have been planned by General
Lee, in view of the circumstances referred to. '
The Richmond Examiner of the 24th
says: A long series of blunders, convincing
some sooner and others later, have now pro
duced a very general, indeed, we may say, a
universal belief among all intelligent- obser
vers that our Government, as it is now con
ducted, is not equal to the great occasion.
That feeling so carefully nurtured has been
hopelessly broken. That great element of
success is gone from us, unless in some way
we reform the administration of our Gov
ernment.
General Sherman has issued "an order in
reference to the negroes within the line3 of
his army. The young and able-bodied men
are to be encouraged to enlist in the military
service, and the South Carolina sea islands
and the abandoned rice and cotton fields on
portions of the coasts of Florida and South
Carolina are to be set apart for the settle
mentof the old men, women and children
Gen. Rufus Saxton has been appointed to
superintend colonization on the lands,
California journals are discussing the
subject of Napoleon's colonization scheme
in Northern Mexico, and generally take
the view that it will relieve the State of
Southern malcontents and rebel sympalhi
zers. " Many are already preparing to leave
under the invitation of Dr. Gwyn, and in
that event American settlers will revolution
lze the country if the Monroe doctrine is
not soon asserted by the United States Gov
ernment.
Late rebel papers-continue to shew the
confusion, doubt and dependency regarding
the success of the Cenfedentcy now preva
lent among the thief rebels themselves, as
well as the mass of the people.
A Charleston correspondent of the Rich
mond Dispatch says that if Sherman suc
ceeds iu getting possession of Branchville,
the fall of Charleston will soon follow.
All the rebel obstructions have been remov
ed from the main channel to Savannah har
bor, and it is now open to navigation
The New York Time editorially savs that
the present campaign began by Sherman is
the finishing campaign of the rebellion. It
thinks it makes no difference whether the
troops now coming from the West reinforce
lorry, bherman or Grant, and hopes to see
the present movement carried to a speedy,
successful termination. Mr. Blair, it hopes,
w ill remain quiet, as tho only way to bring
about peace is the destruction of Jjee s army.
It is said that, Mr. Blair reports that there
are plenty of peace men in Richmond; that
there is much wrangling and division among
the rebel leaders, and that there is much
jealousy and watchfulness, of each other,
that no official overtures lor peace dare
made. They seem determined, notwithstand
ing th'iir recent disasters, to make one more
desperate effort for independence.
The official report, recently submitted to
a Spanish Council of War, shows that up to
t he 1st of October last the expedition to St.
D.jiuingo had cost seventy millions francs,
and that of the thirty thousand men sent to
the iland only fourteen thousand now re
main under arms and hardly four thousand
of them wpre in a state to carry on the cam
paign. The deserters coming within our lines are
very numerous, the number ranging from
twelve to fifty a day, all of whom tell the
most doleful stories of the hardships they
had to endure, the scarcity of pro visions, &&,
and predict that the end q the rebellion is
near .at hand.
The Richmond Dispatch now sells for
fifty cent s a single copy, and at thirty dol
lars per hundred to carriers.

ONEY WASTED to amount of $75,000
The Commissioners are required to pay boun
ties to volunteers and substitutes in order to fill
the quota of the county in the coming draft, and
thev need monev for that purpose
Tbey now call upon the citizens to come for
ward and loan the county the money necessary,
for which coupon bonds, clear of tax, bearing six
per cent interest, payable each half year, will be
issued, running from 1S06 to 1872. in sums of $100
to SI 000!
The settlement shows that the county owes but
S7d000 for bounty loans, and this loan is a sure
and sale investment. All are interested in nam
ing this loan taken and it is hoped it will be met
with promptness. If not taken before the 1st
day of February it will be placed in tho eastern
cities and the opportunity for investment will be
lost. Subscriptions to the loan received at the

CORRECT YOUR

Office of Provost Marshall,
Ridgway, Elk co., Pa., January 9, 1855. ,
In accordance with Circular No. 152 of A. A.
Pro. Mar. Gens. Office, Western Division of Penna.
the Commissioners and Surgeon of the Board of
Enrollment of the l'Jth District of Penna. will
hold a session at the Court House, in tho Borough
of Clearfield. for the purpose of correcting the En
rollment Listg of Clearfield Co., on January the
26th, 27th. a3 23th
. Citizens thr6uhout the County are earnostly
called upon to aid the officers in the discharge of
their duties, by giving all information bearing
upon this important subject.
It must be distinctly understood by tho people
that their only surety of a fair proportion of the
burdens of the draft lies in the proper correction
of the lists.
Every name improperly left upon the lists,
swells disproportionately the quota. It is the du
ty therefore of each good citiien to bring before
tho Board every man, who, by reason of over age,
permanent ph isic.il disability, or two years ser
vice, shall be entitled to have his name stricken
from e lists; and also to furnish to the Board
satisfactory evidence in cases of death, removal,
Ac. As, also, the greater number of competent
men on these lists, the less likelihood there is of
any particular one of them being drawn from the
whoel. Each citizen owes it to himself to see
that the name of every man in his Township who
is properly liable to draft, shall be on. the lists
I wouiu respectfully recommend to the different
sub districts the propriety of appointing Commit
tees to examine into all the cases requiring atten
tion, and bring the parties concerned, or the evi
dence their death or removal, before the Board.
An opportunity is now offered to all sub districts
of correcting completely their Enrollment Li3ts.
It must be done, and should be distinctly under
stood that should another draft be subsequently
ordered, no notice whatever will be taken of com
plaints of Committees that their enrollment Lists
are erroneous; nor will any suspension of drift,
or alteration in the quota be granted jon that plea.
