They took nearly $100, 000 out of the treasury to pay their wages, and then to hide this waste of money, cut short he appropriations for the insane and other unfortunates. What a specimen of Democracy! Robbing the insane to pay themselves five dollars a day for waiting to se,.the result of impeachment, and passing unconstitutional laws. Not content with this, the Democratic majority propose to re assemble in November, and begin a session " Hi may continue longer than that which has latv ,0SC(1 Tbo fiye dolars a day be remorselessly xiracted, while the insane and tho blind mapa- r .. ficreuc-ffppropriations. Look Oct for Titem. A Pittsburg pa per says a new scheme for swindling fann ers is on thejapis. The article now offered is a wrought iron plow-oint, fitting into a hollow square, of the economy of which wonderful tales are tuld. Those that have got bitten fiul that wrought iron points cost more apiece than eutire share. of cast iron. A9 these plow-point swindlers are under stood to be making a hurried sweep up through the Southern counties of N. York, in order to get into West Virginia, Penn sylvania and the Eastern States, farmers would do w'ell to be on the alert for them. Papers desirous of saving their patrons' pockets will direct attention to this swind ling scheme. It has cost the farmers of the West about $200,000 the past year. An Involuntary 'Tribute. United States five-twenty bouds of the several de nominations are now in large use in Eu rope as letters of credit. Travelers visit ing Europe can safely carry them with them in such sums as they need and it is reported find them easier and cheaper of negotiation than the old arrangemant ot bankers letters of credit. What an involuntary tribute this is to the strength and stability of our free Government, when our paper currency becomes international money! Where are the Pendletons and Pomeroys, and Demo cratic repudiators great and small, in the face of this magnificent testimony of na tions. 1 ..... . Favor Repudiation. The Pittsburg Gazette says : The Democratic editors of Western Pennsylvania, at a meeting recent ly held in this city, unanimously adopted resolutions favoring the payment of the bonds in greenbacks and the nomination of Pendleton. Similar resolutions would also have been approved by the recent Conven tion of the Allegheny county Democracy, but the bond-holding leaders of the party succeeded in smothering them. Their dis creditable scheme to stifle an expression of the popular sentiment was indignantly de nounced by delegates on the floor, but with out avail. Removal op the Caimtol. Gen. Lo gan's proposition to remove the National Capital westward has developed an unex pected degree of strength in its favor. Al though the House would not suspend the rales, the other day, to receive it, it is pre--dicted that, when brought up again, as an isolated question, it will receive a much lar ger vote. Not a few among prominent eastern politicians and journalits regard the movement with evident favor, and there is a growing sentiment in all ouartersthat this removal of the seat of government is only a question of time. It is said that Hon. S. Linn, President Judge cf this district, will resign shortly. Proceedings of the County Convention. The Convention met according to an nouncement, on Wednesday evening, June 17:h, ia the Court House nt Clearfield. II. It. Swoope, Esq., Lhairman of tie County Committee, called the meeting to order ; and, on motion being made, Alexan der Marray, Esq., was elected President; Isaac Thompson, Sr., David Cathcart, Da vid Adams, Sr., Joseph Wilson, Benjamin Spackiuan and Philip Antes, Esqs., Vice Presidents; and S. J. Row and M- W. Tate, Secretaries ot the Convention. - On motion of J. B. M'Enally, Esq., a committee was appointed to draft resolu tions expres&ive of the sense cf the Con vention, and the following named gentlemen were indicated by the Chair ; J. B. M'Eu ally, James Irwin,Sr., William Radebaugh, James Forrest and Daniel Livingston. It was resolved on motion of II. B. Swoope, Esq., that the nominations on the County ticket be indefinably postponed. On motion made it was agreed that when the Convention adjourned it shall meet at the call of the Chairman of the County Committee. The committee upon resolutions having returned, reported through their chairman, J. B. M'Enally, Esq., as follows: R,solced. That we heartily endorse the nomination of Grant and Colfax, and the platform adopted, by theMational convention. litsnked. That we congratulate the citi zens of the Commonwealth upon the suc cessful administration of Gov. Geary a man who has proved faithful to the people that elected him, and has devoted himself to the promotion ot the interests or. tue great State over wnicn ne presides. RtxokeA, That we cordially endorse the course of Hon. Gknni W. bcoticki.cur rep 'rcsentative in Cougress,who has discharged his duties with exemplary ability and fideli ty to his country, arid to his constituents. Rcsoked, That we will go earnestly into the canvass and devote all our enemies to the success ot the whole ticket, believing it to be identified with the prosperity, welfare and perpetuity of the whole country. John II. Fulford, Esq., then moved "That the Congressional Conferees, to be appoint ed, be instiuete'd to sfipport II. B. Swoope, Esq., as the first choice ot Clearfield County . for Congress, which was unanimously agreed to by the Convention. Mr. Swoope, who was present, thereupon rose and re turned his thanks to the Convention for the proffered honor, but stated t,hat in no event could he consent to be a candidate for that or any other position. He was plei'sed, however, to have such an endorsement of frieuds and neighbors, and when the time arrived that he wanted to be a candidate be would inform them all, so that they could of Hon. Glenni W. Scofield, and recom mended the Convention to declare in favor of his re-nomination. J. li. M'Kn&Uy moved that, inasmuch as Mr. Swoope peremptorily declines being a candidate, his declination be accepted, which was agreed to. On motion made by S. J. Row, it was re solved, That J. B. M'Enally, il. B. Swoope and A. C. Finney, Esqrs.. be the Congress ional Conferees with power to substitute; and it was thereupon moved and determin ed that the Congressional Conferees be in structed to give their support to Hon.. Glenni W. Scofield, and to use all fair means to secure his re-nomination. On motion it was resolved that J. B. Hewitt, John M. Chase and Daniel Faust, Esqrs., be the Senatorial and Representa tive Couferees, with the power to substitute. After addresses by II. B. Swoope and J. B. M'Enally, Esqrs., the Convention ad journed with the greatest good feeling, and in full confidence that the November sun shall light the way of victory for Grant and Colfax. . Change of Election. . Below we publish an Act of Assembly, passed last winter, changing the time of holding the township and borough elections in this county, to the Second Tuesday of October : Section 1. Be it enacted, dc, That from and after the passage of this act, the elec tion for borough and township officers in the several boroughs and townships in the coun ty of Clearfield, shall be held on the second Tuesday of October in each year. Sec. 2. The daily pay of judges, inspec tors, and clerks of election in districts poll ing less than two hundred votes, shall be two dollars ; and in districts polling more than two hundred votes two dollars and fifty cents. The daily pay of assessors and constables attending election, shall be one dollar and fifty cents each, and their attend ance at the same shall be certified by the return judjre. Sec. 3. The return judges shall receive for making their returns ten ceids per mile circular, to be computed from the election house to the Court House in Clearfield, and f'ro'm thence to their residence ; and the re turn from the Borough of Clearfield and Lawrence township shall bo made alternate ly by the judges thereof ; and the compen sation therefor shall be one dollar. Sec 4. All laws and parts of laws incon sistent herewith be and they are hereby re pealed. Under this law the township and borough officers, to serve the ensuing year, will have to be elected on Tuesday, the 14th day of October next. The people throughout the county will bear this fact in mind, and have their candidates nominated and their tickets printed or written before election day. Whether this change in the time of holding the local elections was wise, or whether it will prove beneficial in giving us more com petent and efficient officers, remains to be seen. In our opinion, the change is of doubt ful propriety, in that it will have a tendency to draw party lines so closely as to elect a greater number of incompetent officers than heretofore. ' A Little cf Everything. The County Convention was well attended. 5m gcacral European war is apprehended this j summer. The mysteries of Nc York the Democratio j mons case. Cause tried. Verdict for llain ftitf overpaid on contract, and interest, candidates. Yellow fever and a new revolution are reported from Mexioo. - Convalescent the man who wes injured by the fall in butter. A cargo of Africans, it is said, was recently landed in Cuba. Large numbers of females are now engaged in the watch-making business. Andy Johnson and his followers have dropped Hancock. Too much soldier there, eh ? Noah Farewell, convicted of 'areeny last week, 'vamoosed the ranche"' before sentence. A Bench warrant is out for him. The quest of the Cops for a Presidential candi date has been not inaptly styled '-the pursuit of brains under difficulties." Vallandigham says that ho is proud of his record during the war How about that "ten cent" contribution, when in Canada? Thurlow Weed says the Conservatives will run, Cbasa as a third party candidate for die Pie.-i-i dency if the Cops ttirow him everboard. , Andrew Johnson favors Chase as the nominee of the Democracy. This is the last insult to a fallen man. Is Jeff Davis in favor of Chase ? Major Lawrence, U. S. Marshal for Kentucky, was murdered in Russelville, in that State, on June Kith, by some members of the KuKlux Klaa. Some merchants in New York have combined together to raise a fund with which to purchase sowing machines for the widows or orphans of soldiers. The Ohio Legislature passed a bill prohibiting- any but regularly educated physicians from prac ticing in the State, on penalty of fine and im prisonment. The Sheriff started on Monday morning with Thurston, convicted of stealing sheep, for Alle gheny city. Clearfield is being pretty well rep resented there. The Forest Press says, '-Daddy Burkot caught 733 trout, in Salmon creek, one afternoon last week, ranging from six to nineteen inches in length." W-h-e-w. The misunderstanding between Geh. Grant and Gen. Butler, ever since the close of the war, has been reconciled, and friendly relations restored between the parties. A man named John Adams, near Shirlcysbarg. was struck by lightning and instantly killod.last week, lie was ploughing and took shelter undor a tree, during a storm. The Rebels of South Carolina still prate nbcut a white man's government. Don't they know that thoir brethern, the Cops in the North, have made such prating obsolete ? Vallandigbam calls himself an honest passer by. lie also speaks of a newspaper as a Utile yellow dog. Certainly Val. had a drop too much of liquid distilled bliss. - . sicferable jails o? snow inffat territory. At Aus tin the roofs of so feral houses were broken by the weight of the snow In Great Britain and Ireland, while Protestant ism has increased iie-'j' ' tv. minions since IS 11, Roman Catholicism has de creased uur than two millions, in the same po- riou. , It has become fashionable for young ladies, whose love is unrequited, to drown themselves. Undoubtedly it will be interesting to many to know that this water-cure remedy is highly suc cessful. Last week a large black bear ventured into the garden of Mr. G rath, at Mill Hall. Bruin, on seeing Miss Grath, who was walking in the gar den, made hasty tracks through the villuge to his forest home. A general movement is to be made at tho next sesion of the Legislature to increa-o the pay of jurymen. Two dollars a day is not a very pay triotic sum for such services, but the honor is worth something. Tho Tennessee Democracy demand the Presi dential nomination for Johnson, and for Pendle ton afterwards, accepting either candidate ex pressly oa the white man's government and plenty of greenbacks platform. M'Coole and Coburn won't be out of prison un til after the 4th of July, consequently the Demo cratic party will be deprived of their .valuable services at the Convention in New York. What a pity for the Democrats. A fiizle so far as the music was concerned the concert given iu the Court House, last week. That "fiddle band" might bo appreciated by a New York Fire-Points audience, but certainly it was not by the citizens of Clearfield. The Ladies of the Presbyterian Church had e delightful Fair and Festival during the past week. It was a decided success the profits amounting to the handsome sum of St,400. They deserve great credit for their enterprise, energy, and good tasto. The Conservatives say that tbo nomination of Chase as the Democratic candidate, at New York, on the Fourth of July, will break up and demor alize the Republican forces. Indeed ! Tho party of progress and right is not so easily routed or demoralized. There is going to be an interesting Sght for the Senatorial nomination in this Distrist. "Sweet William" hasn't got it exactly his own way. The valiant Early is in the field, pills, saddle bas, and all, and has given Billy notice "to stand from under." Fun ahead ! Jamos Johnson, the prosecutor of Paulhamus. was in Court last week for assaulting an officer etc , and while here was accused of robbing a man in bed at Stino's Hotel. The Grand Jury found a true bill, and James left without giving bail for his appearance. At Monroe, Conn., on June 16th .during a heavy thunderstorm, three school children, Frank K. Hawley, aged thirteen; David M. Sherman, aged ten, and Charles B Rubbet, aged six years.while standing on a school house porch, were instantly killed by lightning, and a little girl named II ub- bel was severely stunned, but has recovered. The school house was badly damaged. Charles Ulrich, the notorious counterfeiter of United States one hundred and five hundred dol lar bills, who has caused the government great trouble and expense, plead guilty before Judge Leavitt in the United States Court at Cincinnati, and was sentenced to the penitentiary for twelve yoars. Bis conviction breaks up a powerful and dangerous gang of counterfeitors Court Proceedings. Below we publish an epitome of the pro ceedings of Court, at June term', 1SC8. common pleas.

To tin; Honorable,the Judges of the Court of Quarter Sessions, June term, 1868: The grand Inquest of the County ot Clear field, at June Sessions, 1SC8, would report, that they have examined the public build ings and find them in as good condition as the circumstances of the case will admit,except the cellar under the jail-house, which is in a miserable condition and unhealthy on ac count of not being drained or cemented. Obstructions in the public high-way by Peers erected in the dam, known as Antes' dam the Shute in the dam of Dr. J. P. Hoyt & Son, in Ferguson township, and the Shute iu the dam of Thomas A. Magee, in Bell township, are in a miserable condition and unsafe for the running of lumber, boats, &c. The public road from Ansonville, in Jor dan township, to Jaynesville, in Guelich township, is considered a nuisance, as near ly all the bridges are broken through and unsafe for travel. We would also recommend lhatthe Com missioners of the county procure a clock and have it placed in the tower of the Court HouBe, as the one in present use is a poor time-keeper. J. F. Steiner, Foreman. A thousand recruits for the papal army are'now being raised in his country. It seems that the Pope is much troubled with brigands, and that he wants Americans to fight them, because of course they must be used to Indian fighting and can apply their knowledge to the barbarians of Italy. The new tax bill fixes the tax on whiskey at sixty cents per gallon. The whiskey ring. however, are scheming to defeat the passage j i;u, J - - :.B,U ii , ..-J. lars.

Mar&liall's Line Engraving of General Ctiaiit. Now Reody. This splendid Line Engraving is the result of two years' labor on the partof the artist. Mr. Wm. E. Marshall, who stands at the head of bis pro fession in the United States, It ia pronounced a perfect likeness of Gen. Grant in hie best expres sion, by the membersof bis family and those who have been personally acquainted with him for many years. As a work of art it is immeanurea bly superior to all others.
