Our Pailroa /.

IF our citizens do not take some interest
in the extension of the Tyrone and Clear
field Railroad, they may wake up some fine
morning and find themselves left in the
urch, by the proposed extension west from
Osceola. We are informed that certain in
f1uences are at work TO extend the road in
such way that Clearield will be left about
ten miles to the North
The proposed change of the route of the
Pennsylvania Railroad so as to avoid the
Summit Tunnel, is also worthy of our i'm
mediate attention If Tyrone is made the
point at which this change of route will be
commenced, the road will probably run
through the Southern part Of this county.
In that event it would require but little eff
fort to secure the erection of a road, to con-
meet with the Sunbury and Erie, at the
mouth of the Sinnemahoning 1t would
complete a road from Erie to Philadelphia
seventy-fve miles shorter, than by the route
now in use. Our business men and proper
ty holders should give this matter.ther i'm
mediate attention. 1t is of the utmost nm
portance to the prosperity of our county.

DEAR Journal We have had a taste
Of winter during the past week, but for the
| last few days the weather has been mOder-
ate, and the circulating population are NOV
ing to and fro, usual.
The merchants, mechanics and business
portion ef cur community, generally, have
at long last resolved to pay Il proper respect
TO the days set apart by the National and
State authorities for giving thanks to the
Great Givcr of all good things, and prayer
for His infinite mercy Thursday last vas
was very generally observed by our citizens.
The stores and workshops, with only one or
two exceptions, were closed. and our town
presented very much of Sunday appear
ance. Everybody seemed to be enjoying
themselves to their full bent. aud more es-
pecially in the afternoon arising from the
fact 40 doubt, that each and every enc had
something extra for dinner This Is as 1t
should be, and | am glad to chronicle the
creditable manner in which .thc business
population or our towB observed thanksgIv-
ing day November 24th, 1861,
\ very marked change is visible in the
conversation anr conduct Of our political OPP
ponents since the 8th Instant. Where We,
previous to that date, heard loud talk OF a
strong traitOrOuS. reasonable tendency, all
Is now quiet as the grave-nct werd eS-
Gaping the lips of those who were the most
violent opponents Of the Administration.
Vnd well they may be silent, poor fellows,
they must fear and tremble, when they take
into consideration the large majority that IS
against them.
Another invoice of tickets to Lincoln 5
Ball, came to town few days since. The
favored ones Immediately in the town and
vicinity were Jacob NJ keplar, VIM Bur
ris. Elias Hale, J.. Stinerook, and VIM NJ
CIelan The num Der drafted was ten. The
quota is now filed within FIVE, and this last
draft will very probably ell it entirely.
The large number Of persons clad in I n
Gle Sam 5 regalia, seen in our streets for the
last twenty days, suddenly disappeared dur
ing the week, and beteok themselves to
mere congenial quarters. 4 great many of
the boys were home on furlough. They
were all from the military hospitals. Some
of them looked well, and thought they would
soon be fit to join their regiments. Others
we've yet afflicted more or less, and it will be
some time before they are able TO 60 to the
field. Yet they all seemed cheerful, and
were "gay and happy during their visit;
Nav the boon of health soon be theirs, and
may they long live to enjoy the Liberties they
have periled their lives to maintain, is the
fervent wish of LERo1

THANKSGIVING.

In accordance with the Presidential and
Gubernatorial proclamations, Thursday last
was generally observed in this community as
a day of thanksgiving. Most of our people
seemed to enter inio the spirit Of the APP
pointment, and the observance was more
general than it has been on former occasions
of the same kind.
Service was held here, in the Presbyte-
rian church. The congregation was large
and attentive. The ceremonies, conducted
by the Rev W. Z. IJAMs, were singularly
appropriate and impressive. The sermon
was from the 18th verse Of the VI chapter
Of Revelations:
Blessing and glory. and wisdom, and thanks
giving. and honor, and power, and might be un-
to our God for ever and ever"
We have seldom listened to more chaste,
eloquent, and beautiful discourse. Mr.. I.jams
IS 4 gifted writer, and one of the finest elo-
cutionists we have ever heard His voice,
evidently under the most perfect control, is
melody itself His argument is both clear
and profound yet garnished with the most
beautiful imagery. The sermon was replete
with noble sentiments and devout thanks
givings, while it glowed with the truest
Christian patriotism. We regret to say,
that this eloquent preacher has accepted a
call from Danville, Pa, and left for that
place on yesterday.
In CurN ensville services were held in TIE
Methodist church, and were conducted by
the Rev i. NJ GARDNER. The sermon was
froRl the last verse of the XXXIIL chap
ter Of Deuteronomy:
'sWho is like unto thee, 0 people saved by the
Lord, the shield of thy help, and who is the sword
of thy excel leney! and thy enemies shall be found
liars unto thee; and thon shalt tread upon tn cir
high places"
1t is spoken of as one of Mr. Gardner 5
best efforts. The congregation went home
delighted He is, indeed. one of the most
eloquent preachers in the East Baltimore
Conference Our Methodist friends were
exceedingly fortunate in securing his seryi-
ces, and when the time for his departure ar
riyes the end Of his second year here is ap-
proachiug) not only the members of his
church. but large portion Of this c0mmu-
nifty will part from him with sincere regret.
