psrmSo ur-The citizens Of our bor
ougb. Notwithstanding the lhrd times,
ndthey are bad enoughindecd exhibit a
most laudable spirit Of improvement both
IN building and roftt'ng. In addition to
tbe fine new dwellings that are now in
course of construction, several fine houses
have been freshly painted, and otherwise
renovated, making them lool, about as
GOOD as new. Add to this the weekly adj.
dtions of new and commodious pavements
in yariou parts Of the town, and it makes
nm the sum total of much valuable i'm.
movement, and makes it look like a sec.
ond edition of itself revised and improved.
with even an ordinary degree of pros
perty, Clearfeld would ere long be one of
the most active and thriving, as it is al
ready one Of the prctdes inland towns Of
Pennsylvania
REPAIRING NEGLEcT.-To repuira ncg-
lect or supply an omission, the first OPP
portunry after it has been discoved, il
perhaps the best apology that can be made.
In our last issue we neglected to call at
fention to the card of Alfred NJ. Smith,
who has just commenced the practice Of
Dentistry in this place. Mr. Smith is
well known TO the citizens of this place
and vicinity, and will, we trust, receive
liberal amount of encouragement in his
new profession from his old friends,
His card sets forth where he is TO be found,
what he processes to do in his line; and
Alfred always means just what he says.-
Mr. VERNON IIorEL.-By referring to
our advertising columns twill be seen that
the above named Hotel has been once
more opened forthe accommodation Of the
public. This is a we'll know house, situa-
led in the heart OF business and is one of
the most desirable stopping places in the
city. Mr.. Hopkins the new proprietor is
gentleman of much experience in the
line Of hotel managing, and from what we
know of him, is well calculated to make
his guests comfortable, and ifpossible hap
by while they make his house their home
His charges are made to suit the times.
RAILROAD AccrDESr-A gentleman Of
our town who has recently been on the
route of the Tyrone, Clearfeld Il Erie Rail
road, reports that while walking along it
he discovered lying in its vicinity and
with many evidences of his having there
met his death, on the track, if not by the
train, the lifeless carcass Of horse. Our
fried chronicles this as the first Railroad
accident on that improvement. Perhaps
the old horse died in despair.
MAMMOTH ToNATo.-Our townsman
Gen, N. 4. Hills is entitled TO the credit
of growing the largest Tomato in his gar
den this season that NC have heard
of. 1t is fifteen inches in circumference
and weighs three and one fourth pounds
This Tomato grew upon vine which has
singly produced not less than twenty five
pounds of fruit since it commenced bear
ing. Not had production for thcstcrilc
soil Of Cearfield
DENTISTRY. A. NJ. Hills still con
tinucs in the business of supplying and
repairing the absent and defective teeth
of those who call upon him. From a
long experience in the business, he hopes
to be able to render satisfaction to all who
may favor him with their patronage
See card for further particulars,
A SlGx.-A sign is often looked for
when it is not given, but our fellow-ciizcn
II. II. Morrow has placed a new sign in
front of the Clearfeld Hotel which can al
ways be seen by the weary traveller when
it is not too dark or his optics otherwise
obscured, promising rest and food and
fire." within. Mr.. N. Is u clever and
obliging landlord, and does all in his pow
or to make his guests comfortable.
ArREsrEp.-A couple of young men
named Henry were arrested, brought tc
town aud lodged in Jail yesterday evening
charged with being engaged in an unlaw'
ful lumber speculation, the cuttingot tim
bcr on land belonging to other parties -
They are still in custody.
