THE JOURNAL. CLEARFIELD, AUG. 17, 1859. Rehoval. The Raftsman's Journal oflice has been removed to the second story of Robins' new building, on Market street, nearly opposite our former location.

The camp meeting of the Ctearflekl and Curwensville charge is advertised to commence on the 9th on ex-Sheriff Reed's land. All red Lawhead, son of Zebed Lawhead of Lawrence township, aged about 12 or 14 years, a few days since, whilst chopping wood cut the second toe off one of his feet. Whilst in Tyrone last Week we were met by that whole-souled, clever fellow, Jim Galer who seems to know everybody. Persons in want of Flour, Liquors of all kind, and the best Lime ever made, can be supplied by giving him a call.

A meeting of the Ctcaifield County Agiicul-tural Society is to be held in the Court House in the Borough of Clearfield, on next Saturday, the 20th August, at 4 o'clock P.M., to determine about holding an Agricultural Fair the coming fall. The ladies arc invited to attend. Bv order of the Ex. Committee. Is Jail.

A man named George Xeagle was lodged in our jail on the 12th, and another named John Orner yesterday, charged with having one night last January taken the Cresson House on the mountain in Cambria county a lot of bed clothing, knifes, forks, Jtc, en their own confession. Sercl haps, lour blankets, live and a half dozen case knives, three carving knives, and a looking glass, which were hidden in tj woods, were given up by Xeagle and Orner, who implicate others in the transaction. The Sheriff of Cambria has been notified of the arrest. The articles, it is said, belong to the Pennsylvania railroad company. The prisoners are residents of Cambria connty.

Buookville Republican. This is the name ot a neatly printed, spirited and well edited paper, which we have found on our table. We presume it is sound in politics, and wish it success. Wc observe that it knows how to appreciate a good article copies from us compliments "us but says rather too much. Wc shall put the Republican on our exchange list, if for no other reason, to observe when it copies copyrighted articles.

Doubt if it would have discovered the anachronism it the Major, who was at the baptism, had lived in the same town. We see that Judge Douglas has written a jdiort and pointed letter to Col. John L. Peyton, on naturalization and the African slave trade, substantially as follows: "There can be no difference in the degiees of protection accorded by government to native and'natu-ralized citizens. Our Constitution recognizes no difference in this respect.

If a person can expatriate himself from a foreign government and svjrear allegiance to this, and still owe anything to the foreign power, he is in the singular and incredible predicament of owing allegiance to two countries without being entitled to tho protection of either. He would accord the fullest protection to all our citizens. In the Convention the Constitution was a creature of compromise, and the African slave-trade was the subject. South Carolina and Georgia wished to continue it Virginia, New York, Pennsylvania and New Jersey, wished it terminated; New England was passive in the matter South Carolina and Georgia finally carried their point of continuance till the year 18G8, with the understanding that it f-hould then end. It, therefore, became the vital compromise of the instrument, and must be held as sacred as the instrument itself.

this view, Judge Douglas declares himself to be irrevocably opposed to the re-opening of the African slave-trade." Eight Children They will allow ns this point of exclamation, for if a person is ever permitted to be astonished it is in the prcs-ence-of a woman who has given birth to eight -children on one day. This phenomenal mother is called Eunice Bradley, and lives at John-ion in Trumbull county, Ohio. Eight children After all, the father should stop there, if he knew the proverb of the good clog who run a race. Iudeed, the grandmother of his fruitful half had had rive pair of twins one of these girls had married into a family where there were only and from this marriage sprung the first year three infants, of hich Miss Eunice Mowery was the eldest. Six years ago, when Timothy Bradley espoused this woman, who then weighed 273 pounds, his friends.

The first year Mrs. Bradley had twins, and fifteen months after she gave birth to twins. The good Timothy to quit at four, but he counted without his wife, who, on the 2nd instant, became mother of eight children three boys and five girls all small, it is true, but well formed and full of licalth.

Without being cast down by this unexpected event, Bradley, who is a poor man, asked three of the richest men in the neigh borhood to act as god-fathers for his sons. 1 hey aceefitey', amj on the day of baptism one of theni, Hon. Joshua R. Giddings, gave to his god son a magnificent gold the second, Mr. James Johnson, sent to bis a milch cow; and Xje last, the' Hon.

Being iu the circulation, it pervades the whole body, and may burst out in disease on any part of it. No organ is free from its attacks, nor is there one which it may not destroy. The scrofulous taint is variously caused by mercurial disease, low living, or disordered or unhealthy food, impure air, filth and filthy habits, the depressing vices, and, abave all. by the venereal infection. Whatever be its origin, it is hereditary in the constitution, desoendiug from parents '-to children unto the third ami fourth generation iudcl it seems to be the rod of Him who says, -'l ill visit the iniquities of the fathers upon tboirchildrcn." It effects commence by deposition from the blood of corrupt and ulcerous in the lungs, liver, and internal organs, is termed tubercles; ie the glands, and on tho surface, eruptions or sores.

This foul corruption, which genders in the blood, depresses the energies of life, so that scrofulous constitutions not only suffer from scrofulous complaints, but they have far less power to withstand the attacks of other diseases consc- qucntly, vast numbers perish by disorders which, although not scrofulous in their nature, are still rendered fatal by this taint in the system. Most of the consumption which decent inates the human family has its origin directly in this scrofulous contamination and many destructive diseases of the liver, id n3Ts, brain, and indeed, of all the organs, arise from or are aggravated by the same cause. One quarter of all our people arc scrofulous their persons are invaded by this lurking contamination, and their health is undermined by it. To cleanse it from the systom we must renovate the blood by an alterative medicine. and invigorate it by healthy food and exercise.

Such a medicine we supply in Ayer's Cornmimd Extract of Sttrxapa-rilla. the most effectual remedy which the medical skill of our times can devise for this everywhere prevailing and fatal malady. It is combined from the most active remedial that have been discovered for the expurgation of this foul disorder from the blood, and the rescue of the system from its destructive consequences. Hence it should be employed for the cure of not only scrofula, but also those other affections which arise from it, such as Eruptive and Skin Diseases, St. Anthony's Fire.

Rose, or Erysipelas, Pimples, Pustules, Blotches, Blains and Boils, Tumors, Tetter and Salt Rheum, Scald Head, Ringworm, SyphiliHc and Mercurial Diseases, Dropsy, Dyspepsia, Debility, and, indeed, all Complaints arising from Vitiated or Impure Blood. The popular belief iu ''impurity of the blood''' is founded in truth, for scrofula is a degeneration of the blood. The practical purpose and virtue of the Sarsaparilla is to purify and regenerate this vital Uuid, without which sound health is impossible in contaminated constitutions. AYER'S CATHARTIC foraU the punw ses of a familif physic, are so composed that disease within the range of their action can rarely withstand or evade them. Their penetrating properties search, and cleanse, and invigorate every portion of the huiuau organism, correcting its diseased action, and restoring its healthy vitalities.

As a consequence of these properties, the inaltd who is bowed down with pain or physical debility is astonished to find his health or energy restored by a remedy at once so simple and inviting Not only do they euro the cvery-day complaints of every body, but also many formidable and dangerous diseases. The agent below named is pleased to furnish gratis my American Almanac, containing certificates of their cures and directions for their uso in the following complaints: Cos-liveness, Heartburn, Headache, arising from disordered Stomari, Nattsea, Indigestion. Pain in and Morbid ln-ictton. of the Bowels, Flatulency, Loss of Appetite, Jaundice, and other kindred complaints, arising from a low state of the body or obstruction of its functions. AYER'S CHERRY PECTORAL, for the rapid cure of Coughs, Colds, Influenza, Hoarseness, roup, nt Consumption, and for the relief of Consumjitice- Patients in advanced stages of the disease.

So wido is the field of its usefulness and so numerous are the cases of its cures, that almost every section of country abounds in persons publicly known, who have been restored from alarming and even desperate diseases of the lungs by its use. When once tried, its superiority over every other medicine of its kird is too apparent to escape observation, and where its virtues are known, the public no longer hesitate what antidotes to employ for the distressing and dangerous affactionBof tho pulmonary organs that arc incident to onr climate. While many inferior remedies thrust upon the community have failed and been discarded, this has gained friends by every trial, conferred benefits on tho afflicted they cau never forget, and produced cures too numerous and too remarkable ever to be forgotten.

SPECIAL NOTICE TO BOOK BUYERS My attention has been called to statements made through the publie journals, by a New York Gift Sto.e, which are calculated to deceive who even presume to advertise themselves as the originators of tho Gift Book Enterprise, which was first successfully established, and I may say conducted by myself. This concern, who are proclaiming themselves, '-TheOldest in the business," are indebted to me, not only for their first ideas of conducting the business, but for stock to-eommenco with, and a plaoe to commence in.

Their statement, that this is "Tho fifth yeaj? of tUir location in New York," is also faise. It has been thought, on account the naruo connected with this New York Gift Store, that it was a branch of my Original Enterprise; but it is not so, and I wish it distinctly understood, that I mil not in any way responsible for their deceptive advertisements, nor for the manner in which New York Gift concerns are conducted. And holding the position I do, as the Originator of tha Gift Book Enterprise in the United States having established it and brought it to its present high position, by constant labor, unwearied application, and large expenditure of money, I doemU my duty to the publio and myself to exposo- these pretended originators," who are attomptiag- to impose upon the people. I would here pubUely state that theso parties have been referring, without authority or permission, to tho largest and most widely known publishing house in th United States. Iam inormed by this na.

which is located in this city, that, not only have they never given permission to this New York Gift SUre to refer to them, but they utterly disclaim any knowl-' edge of their business or standing: -The foregoing can bo substantiated to the satisfaction of any person or persons, by tho most incontrovertible proofs.
