Scpbehk Court. The cases from this
"eonnty, in the Saprenie Court, will be ar
piei next Monday, March 25th, at Phila
delphia. c
ggviltELT INJURED. We learn that on
Fridav. March 15th, Mr. Joseph Shook, in
t gcuffle at Newburg,broke one of his ankle
joints in such a manner, as likely to render
tun a cripple for life. . .'t
Sr6PZJDED. Owing to the sudden change
in the atmosphere, the streams have fallen
very much, and rafting was pretty generally
suspended. A few days of warm weather
will, however, suffice to aeain raise the
streams, when the rafting business will be
resumsd with renewed vigor.
-Too High. One great obstacle to the
prosperity of our town is the high price of
ial estate? Lots, for building purposes, are
entirely beyond the reach of men of moder
ate mean.". If our wealthy men want to see
the town enlarge and improve, one of the
first, eteps is to reduce the price of building
lot. ' ' ' " ' ...
Court. Court is now ia session, but ow
ing to the absence of parties and witnesses,
on the river, very few people are in attend
ance, and very little business is ready for
jjlriat . Up to the time of our going to pressj
1 no case had been tried before a jury. The
'Court was engaged hearing arguments, mo
tions, etc. : : - ;
Bad Arrangement. March is the wrong
month for. a Court.' in Clearfield : county.
The people are nearly always engaecd on
the river, and it is impossible to get jurors,
parties and witnesses to attend. The time
fluglit to be changed, and instead of Janua
ry end March, court should be held in De
eeraber and February. i '
An-Impostor. Several of our exchanges
tantiofl'the public against a man who is
traVelJmg through the Juniata valley soli
eiting money on the representation that he is
a minister of the Gospel. s He has bogus
recommendations from well-known clergy
men in this State. The people sh6nld be on
the lookout for this impostor. -,: . .
Wanted. In virw of the great demand
far dwellings in our town, and the prosp'wt
f its enlargement, we need a good "Build
ing Association," by which menof moderate
mans can be afforded assistance and ! en
onragpnient to erect homes for themselves.
Will not our capitalists take hold of the
nutter, and thus promote the common in
torPht and prosperity of the town.
0m Railroad. The Messrs. Collins,
taa contractors who are to grade the road
rwweeri this and Phillipsb irg, are actively
' work. They are busily engaged erecting
hanties and making the other necessary
preliminary arrangemeuts, with a jview to
commence digging the first of April. It
will not be many months until the 6nort "of
the iron-horse will be heard in Clearfield.
Another Cold Snap. Contrary to gen
eral expectation, another cold snap visited
this region during the past week.'' On
Thursday nioruing last, three-fourths of an
inch of ice had formed on standing water,,
and on Saturday -and Sunday about five
inches of snow fell. But the air having
again moderated, the snow ia rapidly disap
pearing, and the present indications favor
rleasant weatner. - 1
AnoVhir lUitteOAD Enterprise. We
learn that our friends ia the upper part of
rie county, are making an effort ."Id have
the Indiana branch of the Penn'a Railroad
"tended to the Cherry-tree,and from thence,
by individual enterprise to Patchinville,aud
!timatilyto Burnside. This would be a
most valuable improvement to our county,

Wends, up the river, success in their un

to his arrest. ,
ThrPoisoxing Case. The motion for
a new trial, in the case of Lena Miller, con
victed at the January Term of murder in
the first degree, was argued yesterday be
fore the Court. The argument consumed
the entire afternoon session. ', The decision
of the Court was withheld for the pr?sent.
The case will probably be UM over, to a
wait the fate of the bill now before the Leg
islature, to authorize the Courts, in certain
cases, to pass sentence of imprisonment in
stead of death.
Accident. A young man named Ham
mer, formerly of Brookville, and now in the
employ of the Alpine House, in St. Marys,
Elk county, met with a sad accident, some
days since. - In attempting to jump on the
engine of a passing train, he missed his
step and was thrown under the wheels, re
sulting in the fracturing of his leg above
the k nee, and the crushing of his foot. The
wounds were properly dressed, and at last
accounts he was getting along as well as
could be expected. '
The New Churches. The preparations
for the erection of the Presbyterian and
Methodist Churches during the coming sum
mer, are progressing rapidly. Tbe stone
cutting for the Presbyterian Church has
been going on all winter. . It will be a mag
nificent structure one of the finest churches
in the State. The Methidost Church will
also be a, large and elegant edifice. The
building of the Railroad, the Churches.and
a large number of dwelling houses, will
make Clearfield a rather brisk place this
summer.
Timber. Our eastern friends, supposing
from the large quantity of snow we had
during the winter that the timber market
would be overstocked, have been holding
back with the expectation of very low prices.
They are begiuning to realize, however,
that th-y are likely to be disappointed.
There was too much snow during the winter
and the hauling was so much Impeded, we
are informed, that the quantity of timber
g t out is much smaller than it was last
season. If our people are not too hasty in
getting into market, they mny rely on sell
ing for as good prices as they did last year.
. " Wild Ducks," En ? Quite an excite
ment was created in Bellefonte. last week,
by the appearance of a large flock of '-'wild"
ducks on the planing-mill dam. Several
sportsmen hastened hither, and after much
toil and trouble succeeded in capturing four
of the birds. They bore , them home in
great triumph, but their, joy was of short
duration, for, as they were being congratu
lated upon their good luck, they were sud
denly confronted by a Mr. Kline, a farmer,
who claimed pay for the ducks, as he had
raised them in his barn yard.' That " wild
duck" chase turned out a rather tame affair,
surely. ;
Immense Trade. The value of the tim
ber, logs, boards, shingles, staves, etc., an
nually exported from Clearfield county, is
not less than nine millions of dollars. Much
of the advantage of this great trade, is lost
to our people by the raw material being man
ufactured elsewhere. The attention of those
interested -in the prosperity ot our county
should, therefore, be directed to the en
couragement of home -manufactures. The
extension of the, railroad to the river,' will
afford all the facilities for transportation en
joyed fey other localities, and preparations
should at once be made by our business men,
for holding logs and timber, and erecting
mills, etc., for its manufacture at home. .
An Instructive Incident. Several
Sundays ago, a small bov, aged three or four
years, saw some - geese pass the door, when
he said to his father "Pa; let me go and
chase them geese." ', "Why?" answered the
parent, "this is the Lord's day." "Well,
pa," said the boy, "the Lord won't care if
I just chase one goose." The father only
smiled and remarked "let us go to prayer
meeting'v Now,. how many persons do we
find who entertain', opinions similar to this
child ? who think, "the Lord won't care",
for one little for one little oath for
one little dritiJc- for cine little goose. We
hope that all may learn a lesson from this
aim pleye t i nstructi ve re m ark of a little child.

For children, misses and young ladies,- they are

ful shape when three orfour ordinary skirts will
have been thrown aside as useless. The hoops
are covered with donble and twisted thread, and

FiR. SCHESCK'S TULMOMCSYR-
"UP." '; ': ; : " ; -
This grest medicine eared Dr. J. H. Scbenck,
the preprietor, of Pulmonary Consumption, whoa
it had assamed Its most - formidable aspect, and
when speedy death appeared to be inevitable.
His physicians pronounced his ease incurable,
when be commenced the use of this simple bat
powerful remedy.: His henltn was restored in a
very short time, and be return of the disease haa
beeu apprehended, for all the symptoms quiek'y '
disappeared, and bis present weight ia mora than
two hundred pounds. .
Since bis recovery.be has'devoted his atteatioa .
exolasively to the euro ef consumption, and tbe
disesses which are uitislly complicated with it, I
and the cures effected by bis medicines have been
very numerous and truly wonderful. Dr.Schenek '
makes professional visits to several of the larger
cities weekly, where be has a large ooneoarse ef
patients., and it i truly astonishing to see poor -consumptives
that have to be lifted outjf their
carriages, aud in a few months healthy, robust ,
persons. Dr Scbenck 's Pulmonic Syrap, Beao ,
Weed Tonie, and Mandrake Pills are generally
all required in curing consumption Full direo-,
tions accompany each, so that auy one ean take
them wilhoutseeing Dr. Scbenck, bat when it is
convenient it is best to see him. He gives advice , -free,
but for a thorough examination with his
Kespirometer his fee is three dollars.
Please observe, when purchasing, that the two
likenesses of the Doctor one when in the last
stage of consumption, and the other as he now is.
in perfeot health are on the Goaernment stamp.
