Notice. Dr. A. M., Hills desires us to
gay to his patrons that he will be absent
from his office during the month of Sept.
Tee New Churches. The work on the
new churches, in this place, is "progressing
finely. Both will be magnificent buildings
when completed.
New Shoe Shop. Edward Mack, hav
ing opened a Boot and Shoe shop in the
building occupied by H. Bridge, solicits a
share of public patronage. "Read his ad
vertisement published in another column.
The Planing Mill! The Planing Mill,
in this place, was sold by Mr. Spackman,
last week, to Messrs. Hoops, Jones & Co.,
for four thousand dollars. The new owners,
we understand, intend to remodel the es
tablishment, put all the machinery in good
order, and prosecute the business with re
newed vigor. We wish them success. ,
To Base Ball Players. The regular
monthly meeting of the Chinchaclamoose
Base Ball club, will be held at 8 o'clock on
Thursday evening next (29th), at the usual
place of meeting. A full attendance is de
sired, as there is business of importance to
transact By order of the President, " ;

A Want. We are informed that, recent
ly, a number of persons visited this place
with a view of engaging in business, but
could not procure the necessary rooms. If
this be so, would it "not be advisable for
some of our enterprising" citizens to erect a
number of suitable business houses, to sup
ply. the want referred to? The future pros
perity and growth or this place, depends
much upon the liberality and encouragement
of property, owners. . If they will erect the
necessary buildings, so as to induce business
men to locate here, 4here is no doubt as to a
rapid growth of Clearfield, in population as
well as in business. We submit this mat
ter to the earne'st consideration of all."

Lists of- Voters. We notice that the
lits of voters have been made out by the
As-ssor of the Borotagh and stuck up for
public inspection. Every voter should ex
amine' them, and see whether iTis name is
thereon or not, and, if it has been omitted
he should call upon the Assessor at least ten
days before the election, and have it placed
thereon, otherwise he" will forfeit his right to
vote on the Second Tuesday of October next.
These suggestions should also be observed by
the voter in every township in the county.
Every one should attend to this duty indi
vidually, according to a strict construction
of the law. Then, we repeat, examine the
lists, and see if your name is thereon ; if
not, have it placed there within the time
specified by law "at least ten days' before
the election." Remember this.
Another Planino Mill. We under
hand that a number of our capitalists have
in contemplation the erection of a new and
capacious planing mill, in this borough. We
are pleased to hear this. The erection of
manufacturing establishments in our midst,
will add greatly to the importance of Clear
field as a commercial centre, and give H re
newed impetus to all kinds of business
whether mercantile, mechanical, or agricul
tural. It is to be hoped, therefore, that
this contemplated planing mill will not turn
out a myth, but a reality that it will be e
rected and in full operation at an early day.
In connection with this, it has also been
suggested to erect a large saw mill. That
this suggestion is worthy of a passing no
tice, at least, all will admit, and we men
tion it for the consideration of those who
re more immediately interested therein. .
A Man Missing. We learn that a Mr.
be Roy, lately from Indiana, Pa., who was
engaged in painting a house in Philipsburg,
missing one morning, some twelve days
nce, and it is feared that he was drowned
in Moshannon creek having been last seen
n the bank of the creek the evening before
ne was missed. Upon search being made
fca hat was found near the creek where he
s last seen. Diligent search ; has been
fe, but, up to this time, the body of the
hissing man has not been recovered the
being much swollen from the recent
heavy rains. Mr. Le Roy was a compara
tive stranger at Philipsburg,-and has left
ife and child, who are in indigent cir
stances, to mourn his sudden and mys
fcnous disappearance. The generous and
Empathising people of Pbilisburg will how-
eTer, render all necessary, aid, and relieve
the
wants of the distressed and deeply af-
8ied family of Mr. Le Roy.'- y " F

New Residences. In walking around
town, last week, we noticed that severahnew
residences had been commenced, whilst oth
ers were rapidly approaching completion.
This certainly is an indication of the gener
al prosperity and enterprise of our citizens.
Bnt, notwithstanding the erection of these
buildings for individual use, the demand for
residences is daily increasing. We have no
doubt that, if one hundred convenient and
comfortable dwellings were erected this sea
son, they would all be occupied before next
spring. Then, why should they not be put
up? This question is of general interest.
Let all ponder it well, and then. act in accor
dance with their just convictions.
The illness of General Thomas will pre
vent the immediate execution of the order
removing General Sheridan, unless some
other General is named as his successor.
The latter contingency is thought to be
not improbable, and it is suggested that
Gen. Hancock may be substituted for Gen
era' Thomas. ,
The question of loyalty and disloyalty,
seems to have been a leading issue in the
late election for a chief of the Cherokee
Nation. Downing, the successful candidate,
led a loyal regiment in the late war, while
his defeated opponent,. Ross, was a lieuten
ant colonel in the rebel army.
Ladies who have a disposition to punish
their husbands, should recollect that a little
warm sun will melt an icicle much sooner
than a regular Northeaster.
Gen. Grant is rig!d in his ideas of econo
my, and allows no man in employment un
der his control who does not earn his pay.

The Minnesota fanners talk of forming
