Tho next Pennsylvania State fair will be

counties of our own State, and those of Xew
York, have all promised to do their best to
make this exibition a credit to the fertile re
gions they so successfully cultivate.
Rocred. Ws learn that James Irwin,
Est., of Lawrence township, last week, on
the cars between Ilanisburg and Tyrone,
was relieved of hi pocket book containing
about fourteeu hundred dolta-s. In what
manner the j oi Let-look- and mouey were
lost, Mr. L does nof knox. '
Bounty Loans. The question of the
legally of the loans made by counties, cities,
bj roughs, and township, to pay bounties to
till quotas, was before the Supreme Court in
il.t. ilburg, on Tuesday of last week. It
va argued at length. The decision of the
Court has not yet been made.
House Roused. On Wednesday night,
May 24th, the house of Milton M Bride, of
Lawreiiee township, was entered by some
unknown thieves, and a watch, some money,
an album, a suit of clothes,threeladiescloaks,
and a large amount of other clothing was
carried olf. , The articles taken arc worth
several hundred dollars. So far, no discov
eries have been made as to who the thieves
were. . .
A Yillianou.s Assault. On "Wednesday
Jiight, May 24th, at about 10 o'clock, sever
al unknown men stopped at the housed'
Barthol Stumph in this borough, and called
him out of bed. As he opened the door to
ascertain their will, one of the villians struck
him a heavy blow on the right cheek, cut
ting a severe gash,and felling him to the floor
" r-e'less.- It is supposed that steel knuc
kles were used in the assault. It is a great
pity that the scoundrels can not be identified,
arrested and punished for this murderous
assault upon an unoffending citizen. .
An Improvement. We are glad to ob-N-'rve
that some effort is being made to bet
ter the condition of the streets and alleys in
our borough. In the alley, on the north
fide of Market street, and alongside of the
'"Iiepublican" office, the mud and filth was
shoveled up during the past week, while on
the south side of Market street, in the same
ajfeyi Mr. Mossop is having stone broken,
which is quite an improvement to that thor
u'-gbfare. We hope that others will follow
the example set thera, in the improvement
referred to ; whila the borough fathers at
kod to the principal streets."
Day op Prayer and ITcmiliation.-
To-morrow, Thursday, June 1st, is tho day
designated by the President of the United
States to be observed as a dav of National
humiliation and prayer, on aeeount of th
death of our much beloved Chief Magistrate
Abraham Lincoln. That the occasion
will be observed throughout the United
States, by all Christian people, there is every
reason to believe. It is to be hoped, there
fore, that the citizens of Clearfield will
not neglect it that they will close their
stores, offices, shops, and other places of
business, and engage in the services of tho
hour, in obedience to the proclamation of
President Johnston, in befitting manner,
and as becomes a religious community.
Death of an Old Citizen. Died, at
his residence , in Ferguson township, on
Wednesday the 19th of May, David Fer
guson, aged 79 years and 9 months. The
deceased was a resident of this county for
many years, and was acquainted with most
of the early settlers. Mr. F., some years
since, was twice elected to the Pennsylvania
Legislature, which position he filled with
ability, and with credit to himself and con
stituents. He also was county surveyor for
some years, and in that capacity he is well
and favorably known to many of our citizens
of the present day. He was industrious and
frugal, and a kind and considerate neighbor.
His death will be deeply mourned by his
many relatives and friends. Let him rest
in peace.
Another Bobbery. We Icarn that
some unknown person, on tho night of
May 24. h, feloniously entered the house of
John S. Kadebaeh, - in Decatur township,
and stole therefrom a rifle gun, and some
other articles. The gun was afterwards
found some distance from the house, lying
along.-ido of the road. The post office, in
the same building, was also entered by the
same scoundrels, and all the letters purloin
ed, a number of which contained money and
checks. What amount of money was ob
tained by the thieves is not as yet asccrtain
ed, but it is said to be over two hundred
dol'a,s. Our county, at present seems to
be alive with 'thieves. Efforts should be
ma le to have them arrested and punished
as they deserve.
Titusville. A Clearfield correspondent,
now in Titusville, Venango county, writes
us a brief sketch of his observations in the
oil region. He says: Titusville is located
on Oil Creek, midway between Corry and
Oil City, and is rising up with almost mag
ic rapidity that it is quite a flourishing
town, well located, with a railroad running
through it and that there are at present
about three hundred buildings in the course
Gf construction and coutracted for. Work
for alt kin Is of mechanics and laborers is
plent', and wages range from three to four
dollars per day. Boarding seven and eight
dollars per week. Lumber from thirty-five
to sixty dollars per thousand feet Dry
goods and groceries are a little higher than
in Clearfield. The oil business is in rather
a flourishing condition, and an cuormous
number of wells are being sunk, in audition
to those already yielding the t;grcasy fluid."
Several days sin ;e I visted Watson's Flats,
a few miles below this place, and on my re
turn I counted upwards of four hundred
derricks, of which number about one hun
dred cover yielding wells, the rest being in
all states of progress. Prominent among
the wells that yield is the '-Coquette Well,"
which is said to flow four hundred and thir
ty barrels per day; but, many of the wells
yield only about twenty barrels a day.
Death of a Soldier. Died at Cairo,
Illinois, oi May 14th, lSf,o, Samuel Cald
well, son of Alex. Caldwell, Esq., of this
county. The deceased left his native coun
ty and friends in 1857, for the Western
country and settled in Scott county, Iowa.
Here he married in 1SG0, and enjoyed the
esteem and conGdence of all who knew him.
In the latter part of lSC3,when tlui Govern
ment again called for men to aid in crushing
out the wicked rebellion and restoring our
beloved country to peace and prosperity
once more, he volunteered his set vices and
enlisted in the 20th Iowa Regiment ; which
organization composed a part of the Gulf
squadron, and where his soldierly conduct
gained him the esteem and confidence of
his superiors, and the good will of his fel
low soldiers. In February last, when his
regiment was being sent on a transport from
B.ownsville, Arkansas, to New Orleans, the
vessel was wrecked, and he sustained such
serious injuries as to ultimately cause his
death. : Although not killed in the front of
battle, yet he is but another victim of the
cruel uncalled for rebellion just brought to
close ; and, in his death, his country has
lost a fearless and gallant defender of her
free institutions, and his family a kind and
beloved husband and father. And, while his
friends grieve for his loss, it is still a conso
lation for them to know that he was loyal to
the old flag, and died in defence of his
country, Peace to his ashes. a friend.
Lively Place. The Winstead, Conn.,
ILtoM says ot its village: "Not a house
building in Winstead, not a new manufactur
ing concern opening, not a school existing
where boys or girls can pursue the advanced
studies, not a mother's son in college or fit
ting to go in, not a library existing, not even
a grave yard in which a feasible lot can be
purchased." "
Col. Dennv reports from Glasgow, Mo.,
under date of May 21st, that threbels are
coming to that place, surrendering them
selves and giving up their arms and horses.
; The Soldier's Bierbt Arm.
In more senses than one, the soldiers mus
ket is his right arm, and we are glad to meet
the proposition that he be allowed to retain
it when he is mustered out. It requires no
great amount of sentiment to preeeive the
relations between the soldier and the musket
he has fought with, his trusted companion,
night and day almost his better half. The
war being over, and the soldier mustered
out, it seems hard to take it from him, and
not permit him to carry it home and be its
possessor, the perpetual token of honor, and
perhaps the solace in his old age, with which
to fight his battles o'er. Let the veteran
keep his musket, say we. He has a clear
title to it; the government can afford it.
Oats are selliug in Albany at 45 cents,
price having fallen to that figure from $1, JO,
at which they were a few weeks since.
A vacant lot in Beacon street, Boston,
was sold a few days ago tor $6 per quare
foot.
Late advices from Richmond announce
the arrest of Lee.
MARRIED :
On May 29th, at the residence of John
M'Gaughey, by Rev. Seimbower, Lieut.
Thomas Liddell, of Company E 149th P.
V., to Miss Saphronia Swan, of Clearfield

So then ; notwithstanding his success in
evading all the toils of the rebels on the
battlefield for nearly three years, the gallant
Lieutenant has been captured at last not,
however, by an enemy, but by a friend.
Well, so mote it be ; and may bothithe cap
tor and the captive enjoy long life, health,
and happiness.

per annum, known as the """
7-30 LOAN.
These notes are issued under date of July 15th,
1865, and are payable three years from that date
in currency, or are convertible at the option of
the bolder into
U. S. 5-20 Six per cent.
GOLD-BEARING BONDS,
These Bonds are now worth a handsome premi
um, and are exempt, as are all the Government
Bonds, from State, County, and Municipal taxa
tion, which adds from one to thr-e per cent, per
annum to their value, according to the rate levied
upon other property. The interest is payable semi
annually by ooupons attached to each note,which
may be cut off and sold to any bank or banker.
The interest at 7.30 per ct. amounts to
One cent per day on a o0 note.
Two cents per day on a $100 note.
Ten cents per day on a $.j00 note.
20 cents per day on a 1000 note.
1 per day on a 5000 note.
Notes of all the denominations named will be
promptly furnished upon receipt of subscriptions.
The Notes of this third series are precisely sim
ilar ia form and privileges to the Seven-Thirties
already sold, except that the Government reserves
to itself the option of paying interest in gold coin
at 6 per cent., instead of 7 3-10ths in currency.
Subscribers will deduct the interest in currency
up to July 15th at the time they subscribe.
The delivery of the notes of this third series of
the Seven thirties will commence on the 1st of
June, and will be made promptly and contiuous-
ly after that date. The slight change made in
the conditions of this Third Series affects only the
matter of interest. The payment in gold, if made,
will be equivalent to the currency interest of the
higher rate.
The return to specie payments, in the event of
which only will the option to pay interest in Gold
be availed of, would so reduce and equalize pri
ces that purchases made with six per cent, in gold
would be fully equal to those made with seven and
three-tenths per cent in currency. This is
The Only Loan in Market
Now offered by the Government, and its superior
advantages make it the
Great Popular Loan of the People.
Less than $200,000,000 of the Loan authorized
by the last Congress are now on the market. This
amount, at the rate at which it is being absorbed
will all be subscribed for within two months, when
the notes will undoubtedly command a premium,
as has uniformly been the case on closing the
subscriptions to other loans.
In order that the citizens of every town and
section of country may be afforded facilities foi
taking the loan, the National Backs, State Banks,
and Private Backers throughout the country have
generally agreed to receive subscriptions at par.
Subscribers will select their own agents, in whom
they have confidence, and who only are to be re
sponsible for the delivery of the notes for whieh
they receive orders.
