LITERARY SocErY.-Wementionedsome
.me since that the young men Of our bor-
ouoh were about establishing Literary

oClearfeld Literary Society"
AGRICULTURAL FAIR.-We republish
this week the resolutions of the executive
committee of the "Clearfeld Agricultural
Society" deciding upon holding an Agris
cultural Fair in October next. This is an
important measure and the committee
should receive the full cooperation, not
only of the members of the society, but Of
eye:y citizen Of the county, whether en-
caged in agricultural occupations or not,
in making it both an attractive feature to
the public, and useful in advancing our
farming interests. A meeting Of the So
ciety will be held in Clearfeld on next
Saturday evening.
IxPRsoNED.-Two men named Andrew
aays and - McGovern were land
ed in prison one day last week, npon a
charge of robbing the store Of Mr.. Rider
in Karthaus township. The first named,
it will be remembered, was tried in con
nection with one or two others, at last
January term, for robbing the store OF
Mr.. McGeehan, of Jordan township, and
acquitted. Whatever doubts may have
existed then as to to I he justice Of his ac-
Quital, on that occasion, will not be dimin
ished by his allowing himself to be again
connected with a similar offence and the
meshes of the law may prove too stron
for him il he does not make a premature
exit from his present abode.

speak for the proprietor liberal patron

himself fully worthy.
