Fill vouk Quota. We. Lave been re
quested to state, that M. A. Frank, Esq,
will attend to filling the quotas of several
townships, if Application is made xn. For
further information apply to John M. Ad
ams. Errata. Several typographical errors
occurred in the receipts and expenditure.--,
ast week the corrections have been made.
An omission abo occurred in the notice of

First National Bank. By reference
to our advertising columns the reader will
find the certificate, authorizing the "First
National Bank of Clearfield." We will also
htate, for the benefit of the public, that the
Bank is now open and doing business in the
office heretofore occupied by J. B. McEn.il-
ly, Esq.
The Weather and Roads. Several
days, last week, the sun shone quite warm
in this region, and the snow melted suffi
cient to make the roads quite si u.hy; but
since then we have had hard freezing, and
now the roads arc again in the best of con
dition for sledding and hauling. On yester
day (Tuesday) snow began to fall, and this
morning it measures seven inches in depth.
Unprecedented Blackguardism. For
pome time the citizens living near the cen
tre of our Borough, have been annoyed by a
species of blackguardism, that should be
speedily and promptly abated. Some large
boys, who begin to think themselves men,
are in the habit ot congregating together,
and pretending to firli during which they
curse and swear and howl in a manner tha
could, perhaps, only be excelled by the
fiends in the infernal regions. Such con-
uuct is oenearn mac or a numan being, no
matter how degraded a position he may oc
cupy. If the parents of these boys, eoub
only hear for themselves these imitations of
pandemonium, they would hide themselves
fr very shame, and wish that their off
spring were dead. Whether they are in
any way responsible for this conduct of their
children, we are not prepared to assert but
we do say, that as Christian p arents, they
must exercise a greater watchfulness over
their sons, or at no very remote day they
find some of them the annates of prisons, or
the occupants of the gallows. That this
nuisance should be abated, no one will deny.
If there is no other way if the parents can
not curb their childrens evil habits, and
learn them to respect others if not them
Wives we hope that our Borough authori
ties will take the matter in band, and have
them punished as their conduct deserves
If the officers do not use their influence to
this end, then they are measurably rcspon
ble for a continuance of the evil.
An accident occurred on the Marietta and
Cincinnati Railroad at Lee's Creek Bridge,
sixty miles east of Cincinnati, on Saturday
morning. The middle pier of the bridge was
carried away during the night by the gorg
mg of the ice and high water, leaving the
bridge standing. The accommodation train,
consisting of one baggage and two passenger
cars reached the center of the bridge when
R gaTe way, precipitating the train into the
reek.a distance of fifty feet. Ten ortwelve
ivos were lost, besides' a number serious
ly injured. The rear car fell on its end, and
t'jok fire. Several passengers were burned
to death.

Tribute of Hf s-pvet.
The following preamble ami vesoittt?--ns
were adopted by Co. B, 14Ulh Regt., V.u
Vol., Jan. 22d, 1jG", on learning that their
late commander, Capt. William Hold en,
was dead : . .
Whereas, It has pleased our Heavenly
Father t remove f rom -s, and this world,
Capt. William lloldcti, llnnmc,
Resolved, That while bowing with sub
mission to that inscrutable Providence
which, shielding him amid many dangers and
hardships for more than two years of active
lite in the field, has called him home to die,
we can but feel in his death a great loss to
us, as well as to his country and friends.
Resolved, That his life, with us, has been
uniformly kind, courtous and gentlemanly
always eschewing the vices of the army, and
discountenancing them among us, so as to
merit our highest commendations, and
vite our imitation.
Resolved, That as an officer we must al
ways remember him as modest and conscien
tious laboring for the welfare of his men,
true to his country, and amid much infirm
ity of body never shrinking from any post
of duty, however dangerous or arduous, and
reluctantly retiring when tailing health ab
solutely commanded him from the field.
Resolved, That we tender our sincere
sympathies to his parents and friends, who
are called to mourn the loss of worthy a son
and brother ; and ask them to accept a copy
of these resolutions, from hislate command,
as a token of their respect for him and them.
Sergeant John L. Bex, Chairman.
Lieut. Albert B. Cole, Secretary.
At a meeting of the officers of the 14'Jth
Regt., Penn'a Vols., held the sr. me date, it
was unanimously Rt-iohed, That we t-incerc-ly
unite in this humble tribute of respect to
our late companion in arms, and also tender
our sympathies to his friend.

It is said, now that Wilmington is closed
to the rebel trade that attention will lie
wholly directed to Mexico, through which
ports, it is claimed, sufficient cotton can be
sent abroad to pay regularly the interest on
the rebel bonds and keep a handsome bal
ance on hand besides. The rebels already
have the money in London to meet the
3iarch and September payments.
The crew of the rebel, steamer Florida,
which was captured in the harbor of Bahia
by the United States Steamer Wachusetts,
have been liberated by order of the Govern
ment. They number about thirty. They
were taken from Fort Warren in a tug and
placed on board the BrittUh steamer Cana
da, which, sailed from Boston on Febuary
1st for Halifax.
The quota of Indiana, under the call for
300,000 men, is 22,;si That number at
$f00 each recruit will amount to thirteen
and one-half millions of dollars. A bill au
thorizing cities and counties to borrow mon
ey and issue bonds to pay bounties to raise
recruits to fill their quotas, has passed the
tb
senate
of Iudk
na, aud will probably
pass the House.
It is mentioned in diplomatic circles that
Maximilian's Mexican envoy was received at
St. Petersburg, but got only a polite note
recognizing his appearence, and that no
ltussian envoy is to be sent at present to
Mexico. There is reason to believe this ac
tion of the Bussian Government was upon
the advice of its Minister here.
Nevada walked into thell. S. Senate and
hung up her hat or rather her hats Feb
ruary 1st. We congratulate that lusty young
State on the brightening skies of our Bepub
lic at the hour of her welcome, advent, and
confidently predict that she will be one of
the firmest pillars of our glorious Union.

Wholesale Desertion It was stated on
the floor of the Ohio Senate lately, by Sena
tor Gl NCKEL, who obtained the informa
tion from the Adjutant General of the State,
that on the day previous there had been re
ceived at Camp Chase 4o'.) recruits, and of
that number 130 had deserted daring the
forenoon.
We learn from the Pittsburg Gazette,
that the population of that city has nearly
quadrupled in 24 vears. In 1840 polled a
voteoff.,53S; in 18C4, 20,978. Surely, the
Smoky City is a place of of some note ; as is
attested by the number of most excclent
Daily papers published there.
The decision of the Supreme Court of
Michigan, declaringthe law allowing soldiers
in the field to vote to be unconstitutional, will
give the Democrats one member of Con

The Union prisoners in Georgia have been
transferred to Salisbury, North Caiolina, to
