- To Our Patrons.
Ia a week or two, we will commence to
send bills to such of our patrons as are in
debted to us far subscription, etc., for one
or more yeaw. We intend to send bills to
ALL ; 'and we anticipate a prompt response
from those receiving bills, so as to enable us
to continue the publication of the Journal
without incurring liabilities. ) To those who
hayo paid a in advance we tender our sin
cere thanks for their punctuality.
, A Word to the People.
As the time is drawing nigh, when nom
inations are to be made for State Sena
tors and members of the Ilouse of Repre
sentatives, it behooves the people to be ju
judicious in the selection of candidates.
Forseveral years past a majority of those
eent to Harrisburg, eecm to have been con
trolled more by their -own individual inter
ests than the welfare of the masses, in the
passage of laws. This must not be. The
interests of the people at large are para
mount to private interests. To prevent a
recurrence of undue and injurious legisla
tion, by the granting of special privileges to
monopolies the voters must take the mat
ter into their own hands. In presenting
candidates for election hereafter, men must
be selected who will be true to the interests
of the people. Return no man for the sec
ond term if he proves recreant to the trnst
confided to him at his first election. And
there is but one way of successfully accom
plishing this end. All former party divis
ions must be ignored for the time, and the
people unite in one grand effort in behalf of
themselves. They may not be able to ac
complish all at once, but by perseverance
they will bring about this much desired re
form in a very few year. We throw out
these hints for the consideration of all who
have the development of the reiources of
the State at heart, with the hope that the
subject will receive due consideration from
those most deeply interested.
His "Political" Eecord.
"Mr. Clymer's political record is before
the country upon the journals of the State
legislature. ' ' Clearfield Republican.
Just so, neighbor! And that record, in
part, consists of Mr. Clymer's vote against
the resolution granting the use of the 'Sen
ate Hall to Andrew Johnson to speak, in
favor of the Union of his vote against the
Constitutional Amendment allowing our
soldiers the privilege of voting while in the
army of his vote against the resolution
recommending an increase of pay to our sol-
diers of his vote against the resolution
tendering thanks to Gen. Grant, and the
officers and soldiers serving under him, for
their gallant services and glorious victories
over the rebels in Tennessee and of his
vote against the resolution asking an increase
of pay to non-commissioned officers and
privates ia the army, who were fighting the
battles of the Union.'
Such is Mr. . Clymer's record, which is
"upon the journals of the State legislature."
Hunt it up, neighbor, and publish it for the
i nforniatioQ of yfmi readers, as Mr. Clymer's
votes on these all important subjects have
never appeared in the columnsof the Clear
field Repullican.' - They will form an inter
esting study for you, as well as for your
readers. - ' . ;
. The 7-30's at Par.
On Tuesday, March 20th, the 7-30 U. S.
bonds were quoted at 90 in New York.
This, cortainly, is a very: encouraging fea
ture in our national finances; especially
when it is remembered that the Democratic
leaders denounced them as "a worthless
trash, that in a short time would be of no
more valne than so much waste paper."
Yet, notwithstanding the attempt, on the
part of those who sympathised with trea
son, to embarrass the Government by bring
ing its bonds Into disrepute, the loyal and
patriotic masses took the loans, relieved the
wants of the nation, and now they have the
satisfaction of knowing that theirconSdence
was not misplaced, for that "worthless
trash" is at par, and will soon command
a premium. The people- should remember
these facts. . ; ' ' .
Words are notorious 'cheap. The latest
illustration of this truism is furnished by
the Democrats of Pennsylvania. In their
ale State Convention they made a formal
tendr of "lasting gratitude" to the soldiers
xf the Union. , What, and how much, they
meam) thereby can be inferred from the
coarse, ribaU and indecent manner in which
t roost of their journal are uuw doalinsr with
Teneral Geari
Pennsylvania Policy.
That there is something wrong in refer
ence to the policy of Pennsylvania improve
ments, for the development of our great
mineral wealth, is abundantly : proven by
the recent passage of laws by our legislature
granting almost unlimited privileges to cer
tain railroad companies. Either our legis
lators are ignorant of the true interests of
their constituents, or they are impelled from
some sinister motives to do that which they
know to be injurious to that constituency.
We are not prepared to say where the fault
lies, but that there is a wrong no reflecting
man will deny. There is one way to correct
this evil, or prevent its recurrence. Pas a
general and liberal railroad law, extending
permission to any association of individuals
who may deem it expedient to construct
railroads wbcrever it ma; seem necessary
for the development of cur mineral resour
ces, and the evil referred to will be at an
end, and our State will advance in wealth
and influence beyond all precedent. The
Pittsburgh Commercial of March 20th, re
ferring to this subject, says:
"We are impelled by a sense of duty, to
point out the imminent danger of defeat
which menaces us, it the dominant party in
the Legislature shall persist in the insane
policy ef restriction in regard to the railroad
facilities of the State. New York, with al
ready five times the facilities of Pennsylva
nia for reaching the Western trade from
her metropolis, is busy in the creation of
new lines. The JNew lork, Uswego and
Midland Railroad Company was organized
in the beginning of January, under the gen
eral railroad law pt the state, and the ne
cessary subscription paid in. As located, it
runs through tnecountiesof Oswego, Onon
daga, Madison, Chenango, Delaware, Or
ange and Sullivan to Hoboken. The route
and grade as adopted, show that it will fur
nish, with easy grades, a new trunk line to
the West, sixty miles shorter than the pres
ent New York roads. Whilst New York,
with commendable enterprise, is opening
up' new avenues for the trade ot the great
West, in order to maintain the supremacy
which her metropolis has gained from the
past supineness of Pennsylvania, our Legis
lature is worse than useless, so far as any
counteracting effort is concerned. The At
lantic and Great Western Railroad Compa
ny stand ready and anxious to build a rail
road through a comparatively undeveloped
art of the State, which will make a trunk
ine 167 miles shorter from Northwest to
Philadelphia than the shortest now in exis
tence, through New York State to New
York City, and the Legislature stands in the
way, seemingly determined by inaction, or
adverse action, to prevent it.
Let us have a general railroad law not a
law crippled and cursed with provisions to
render it useless but an equitable law,
which, will encourage the investment of capi
tal in railroads for the development of the
Commonwealth, and we wiil prosper to a
geatcr degree in the future, than ever we
have in the past.
War Debts of the "Status. In a re
port submitted to Congress, Pennsylvania
is set down as having a war debt of $53,
000,000. The only war debt contracted by
this state was the $3,000,000 war loan, and
that is in course of extinction. Philadelphia
borrowed some few millions to pay bounties ;
but the people of the state generally raised
from among themselves, by taxation,, the
money necessary for that, purpose; so that
although the sum of $53,000. 000 was un
doubtedly spent in raising troops to fill the
quot is of the state, it is not in any sense a
debt. The State is in a better financial con
dition, to-day, than before the war, with
less debt and with better means for paying
rapidly what she owes, and that, too, with
out resorting to direct taxation.
Hon. Fraok Jordan, of Bedford, has been
appointed Chairman of the Union State
Committee and will doubtless soon assume
the responsible duties assigned him and de
vote his whole energies to the organization
and success of the Union cause. Col. Jor
dan is a tried and true Union man, and em
inently fitted, alike in point of integaity
and familiarity with the politics of the
State, for the successful discharge of the la
borious task assigned, him. His appoint
ment will be well received by the Union
men of the State, and his skill and energy
cannot fail to lead the party to victory.
Speaking of the Rhode Island . Union
State Convention, and the consequences
likely to result therefrom, the . Providence
Journal of the 21st inst, remarks :
"'Every town in the State was represent
ed in the Union Convent ion yesterday, the
proceedings were harmonious, and excellent
nominations were made. It is doubtful if
the Democrats make any opposition at all
to the ticket which was nominated, but it is
of little consequence whether they do or not
Oar candidates will be elected by a most
overwhelming majority."
'I-' 1 "' 1 ;
Enlargement. The Columbia Repub-
lhan comes to us this week much ' enlarged
and otherwise improved. It gives us pleas--nre
to note this improvement on the part of
the Republican, while ita' neighbor, (the
Democrat, edited by L. L. Tate, Esq.,) has
gone "out of the field." ' Democracy seems
to be on the decline in Columbia county. .
Moke "D. D's.'C---The recent election
in New Hampshire has-resulted in a glori
ous victory tor the llepublicans--Smith's
majority being 4,842, or more than double
that of Mr. Lincoln in 1864. The "D. DV
(dead democrats) seem to be on the increase
in little New Hampshire. ,
.The State officials of Indiana are collect
ing for preservation in a permanent form,
as a part of the history of the war, card
photographs of all the officers of all t he regi
ments that have been organized in Indiana
during the "late .rebellion. A .cl idea:
and wortliv of imitation.
A Glimpse at PoreigD Matters.
Austria and Prussia aie still quarreling
sharply through the papers, and even their
diplomatic conferences arc sul'en. A cor
respondent of a Jit.ndon paper from Vienna
quotes a declaration of a well posted Aus
trian as follows : "Austria i?hes to avoid
a conflict with Prussia. -but her patience is
exhausted, and t-l-.e is resolved to make no
further Anicv.ss3Vna to her overbearing ally.
Should things take a serious turn in 1K1
stein. Austria will make the necessary
preparations for tki'eree, and at the same '
time cive the olswU-Ilol-toiii iv.os;ion j
a European character by leding L r riii.iti
in the two Duchies to the German CocfciU ra
tion." The general tenor of Euros t-s;i cor
respondence does not carry out this id.'a,
and unless some European powers inter
fere, the supposition is, that after consider
able pow-wowing, Austria will give in.
The report lias already been noticed that
Austria solicited the mediation of England,
and Earl Clarendon refused the request.
Spain is still boasting after the old fa.h
ion. Meanwhile, "there is good reason to
think that her finances are in such a de-!or
able condition that the is very poorly quali
fied to carry on a war, and that she will
have to make extensive sales of lands to sup
ply the deficit,in her Treasury.
In England, of course, the gicaj topic is
still the Fenian plot. The police aic kept
busy making arrests, and seizing -.-i-h!h
powder and arms. Songs of a treasonable
character are confiscated, and facetious folks
who indiscreetly joke in a Feniaii style, are
put iu limbo.; It is a genuine "tempest in
a tea pot.":
New ITampsiiire. Although our Dem
ocratic friends are jubilant, as uual, after a
heavy defeat, and are reckoning up those
reiitive-gams which somehow never bring
them any nearer to a majority, the Repub
lican majority in New Hampshire has ex
ceeded both Mr. Lincoln's in 1S64 and the
estimate made this year by the Republican
State Committee, after their canvass of the
State. The New . York Herald explains
the phenomena as follows, in an article
which shows the impossibility of ever doing
anything more with the Democratic party :
"The paTty must take a new shape and a
new name before it can expect to accom
plish any important political revolution.
The party record, of the war has killed it as
dead as the Jiourbons. The new wine of
Johnson's policy cannot be put into the old
Democratic bottles of the Chicago Conven
tion." The Reading Journal, publhed at the
home of Heister Clymer, the Democratic
nominee for Governor, says:
"Against Mr. Clymer, personally, we
have nothing to say against him political
ly, we will have much to say in the course
of the campaign. His record, fortunately
for the people, is a public one, and he can
not hide it. He teas the Vallandiuham
of Jrennsyhania throughout the tear, and
when his votes, his soeeche., his acts are
thoroughly ventilated, and the people
and especially the returned soldiers come
to know his political status, he will meet
with a condemnation scarcely less overwhelm
ing than was that which betel Yallandig
ham, when he ran for a similar office two
years ago, in the Buckeye State."
The naval movements of the Government
excite great attention, as indicating that the
authorities are evidently not satisfied with
the condition of affairs on our Northern
coast. A Washington dispatch says it is
understood that orders have been issued for
the immediate fitting out of a flying squad
ron for duty on the British North Amuricaa
coast.- . Various reasons are assigned for
this movement. One is the aseutMing of
the British West India fleet ar Halifax.
Another is the Fonifui ware. Still another
is the termination of the Reciprocity treaty
and the effect on our fisheries. There m one
thing ccrtaiu : We shall have a fine" flotit
in the eastern waters capable of taking caro
of our interests in that quarter. It will
-probably equal the English fleet In strength.
Heister Clymer is the heaviest candidate
ever forced on any party to carry through a
political campaign. His public record for
the past four years, consists of vituperation
of those who, like Andrew Johnson, in the
South stood up for the national honor, and
of votes against those who, like the soldiers,
left the" North to put' down the rebellion!
The copperhead organs feel and see that
they cannot succeed, with Clymer, and they
are satisfied that they cannot get a man to
accept their nomination who has been the
faithful friend of the Government during
the struggle with traitors. This is a bad
plight for intelligent men to find themselves
in, but it is the logical result of faithlessness
to the national honor. It is the bitter fruit
of sympathy with treason. ;
' A FACT.--An exchange says : "A Glass
of whiskey is manufactured from perhaps a
dozen grains of corn,' the value of which is
too small to be estimated. A glass of this
mixture sells for a dime, and if of a good
?uality is considered well worth the money,
t fires the brain, sharpers the appetite, de
ranges and weakens the physical system.
On the same side board on which the dele
terious beverage is served lies a newspaper.
It is covered with half a million of types
it brings intellisenee from the four quarters
of the globe. The newspaper costs less than
a glass of jsrog the juice of a few grains of
corn but it is no less strange than true that
there is a large number of people who think
corn juice cheap and newspapers dear."
The . telegraph reported the arrest , for
horse-stealing, at Louisville. Kentucky, of
Sterling Kin, and his confession that he
was oneof the party who attempted the as
sassination of Secretary Seward. The
Louisville Courier thinks the confession a
dodge, to get out of the horse-stealing diffi
culty, by getting before a military commis
sion on a charge which cannot be substan
tiated. .
When our war began, or a little latter,
many Americans converted their property
into gold, .and sent it to England. The
amount of money thus thrown into English
business is variously estimated, the highest
figures being $500,000,000,. and the lowest
$300,000,000. -
B. Rush Petriken, Esq., died on Sunday.
March 15th, at Lock Haven. He was veil
known throughout the State. In 1?64 he
was a member of the Union State Central
Committee, and discharged many impor
tant dntis in that capacity.
A writer in the New York Observer, who
has been studying Webster's new "Una
bridged" Dictionary, exoresses a regret that
the lexicographer's definition of 'the word
"boil " had not met the eves of the new ver
sion people before they translated the hook !
ot Job. ;t- it won!d have oeeti so beautiful
to say instead of boils : "An 1 Satan smote
Job with Vrcuiiisci-ihed subcutaneous iu

To ih? i"ic of a citizen of West Virginia
who petitioned for indemnity for losses sus
tained at the. hands of th-j ..rekds, the Son
r.te Committee have decided ."that although
the petitioner fought uuni'-illy to save his
property, he did -no more than his duty as
a citizen, that while his fidelity is com
mended, the liability of the government for
lo.-sos can never be recognized. The decis
ion iu this case will, no doubt, be the gov
erning rule in a multitude of others.
Death Warrants. Governor Curtin on
Saturday issued warrants for the execution
of llouser and Bu.-er. the murderer of Miss
Polly Paul and Cassie Munch, of Cambria
county, and Christian Berger, the murder

The warrants fix the execution of the two

A large woolen factory is beir? erected at
Warsaw, Hancock county, Illinois. The

pacity, will turn out daily 1,000 or 1,100

$150,000. It is now in an . advanced stage
of completion.
The ice bridge over the Niagara liver at
the foot of the Americau Falls still remains
intact, and is crossed daily by hundreds ot

the million cords, and it is estimated that
the river will not be c(par before the middle

The contract on behalf of the Gettysburg
Battle-field 'Memorial Association for the
purchase of the spot upon which General
Reynolds fell, has just been closed. Five
acres have been purchased, and-a suitable
monument will soon be erected to the mem

The escape of the Fenian .Head-Centre,
James Stephens, from Ireland, is now ac
cepted as a fact, and from this it is inferred
that no general and formidable ' uprisine
against British rule is now meditated by
the leaders of the movement on that side of
the Atlantic.
Gen. Lee's Arlington estate belongs to
the government, having been purchased
at a sale for the non-paymgnt of taxes. All
talk, therefore, of restoring the land to Mrs.

to the farm, which holds good against all
litigation.
It is a notable fact that some of the mem
bers of Congress from Tennessee who are
