I.y;s,a,ixe Absenteeism.

In the Columbus correspondence of The
Shield and Banner, we find the following
Just comments:
This absenteeism of members, who are
attending for weeks at a time, to their own
priyate interest, has become crying evil.
The Journal published an article OF right
eous indignation upon what it regards as a
gross neglect of duty on the part of mem
bers for being absent. In my judgment
the best method to avoid it, is to pay mem
bers sufficient per diem for their actual at
tendance. The Journal attributes the whole
trouble to free passes on the various rail-
roads to their homes They must be a class
of sound men that can be bought for forty
or fifty dollars each in that way!l mifl
/ If the, peoples representatives are so
cheapIy purchased, what protection can
they expect from them, against the mann
moth corporations of the State? Better
elect your representatives so that parties
will be equally represented, and then mer
selected with a view to sterling integrity
and devotion to duty, rather than fol
soundness upon the question of negro equal

LETTER OF LIEUT.. GEN. GRANT.
HEADQUARTERS ARMIES, March A, '65.

d.
Gen. r. e. Lee, Commanding C. s. Armies:
GENERAL-LYour two letters of the I'd inst,
were received yesterday. In regard to any
to the exchange of political prisoners,
think there need be none. Gen. Ord or
Gen. Longstreet have probably misunder-
stood what / said to the former on the sub
iect. or may have failed to make myself
understood possibly, A few days before
the interview between Gems. Longstreet and
Ord had received dispatch from Gen..
Hoffman, Commissary General ofprisoners,
stating in substance that all prisoners of
war who were or had been in close confine-
ment or irons, whether under charges or
sentences, had been ordered to City Point
for exchange. forwarded the substance
of that dispatch to Lieut.. Col. Mulford,
assistant agent of exchange, and dpresumed
It probable, lie had communicated it to Col.
Robert Ould. A day or two after an offender,
who was neither a prisoner OF war nor
political prisoner, was executed, after fair,
impartial trial, and in accordance with the
laws of war and the usages of civilized ma
tions. It was explanation of this class of
cases, told Gen, Ord to speak to General
Iongstreet in reference to. My letter of
February 1, will show my understanding
on the subject of releasing political or cit
izen prisoners. In regard to meeting you
on the 9th instant, I would state /
have no authority to accede to your pro-
position for conference on the subject
proposed. Such, authority is vested in the

SPECIAL NOTICES,
A FEW Reasons WHY THE
AMERICAN WATCH
IS THE BEST.

IS THE BEST.
ismade on the best principle, while the foreign
wat,h Is generally made on no principle ut al The
foreign watch is mostly made by women and boys,
by HAND. While their labor is cheap, their work Is
dear at any price. Such watches are made without
plan, and sold without guarantee. They are irrcg-
uar in construction, and quite as iregularin mpve-
ment They are designed only TO sell. and the buy
or is tho party most thoroughly sold. Those who
have kept ''ancres," "lepinos" and "Swiss levers"
in protested repair for few years will appreciate
the truth of our statement.
THE PLAN OF THE AMERICAN WATCH.
Instead of being made OF several hundred little
pieces, screwed together. the body Of the American
Watch is formed of SOLID PLATES. No Jar in
terfcres with the harmony Of its working, and7no
sudden shock can throw its machinery out Of gear.
In riding or any business pursuit, il is all held TO-
gether as firmly single piece Of metal. 1t just
what all machinery should be-
lst. ACCURATB. Cd. SIMPLE. Sd. STRONG.
4th. ECONOMICAL.
Wenot only secure CHEAP APNESSb by our system.
but QUALITY. We do not pretend that our Watch
oan be bought for less money than the foreign make
6eieyes but for its real value it sold for oneIA
the price. ....
OUR SOLDIERS WATCH (named VIM. Ellery)
is what its indicates Solid. Substantial. and
always Reliable-warranted to stand any amount OK
Marching. Riding or Fighting.
OUR NEXT HIGHEST QUALITY OFWATCH
(named p S. BartletD is similar in size and general
appearance but has more jewels, and more elabor-
ate finish.
OUR LADIES' WATCH. recently brought out.
is put up in great variety Of patterns. many Of
them of rare beauty and worbmanship. is quite
SMALL but warranted to keep time.
OUR YOUNG GENTLEMAN'S WATCH is
neat not large and Just the thing for the pocket Of
Young America.
THE PROOF Of the merits Of our Watch may be
found in the fact that we now employ over seven
hundred workmen in our factories. and that We are
still unable to supply the constantly increasing de-
mand.
OUR THREE-QUARTER PLATE WATCH ID
thinner and lighter than the others have descb-
cd Its fine chronometer balance is delicately ad-
used to correct the vibration caused by changes Of
temperature. These watches are the fruits Of tho
latest experiments in chronometry, and are made By
our best workmen in a separate department Of our
factory. For the finest time keeping qualities they
challenge comparison with the best works Of tho
most famous English and Swiss makers, -,,,

iustment of the present unhappy difficult
ties by means of military convention,
Gen, Ord states that if L desired to have
an interview with you on the subject, you
would not decline, provided have had au-
thority to act. Sincerely desiring to leave
nothing untried which may put an end to
the calamities of war, Ipropose to meet you
at such convenient deemed place as you
may designate, with hope that upon an in
terchange of views it may be found prac-
ticable to submit the subjects of controversy
between the belligerents to convention Of
the kind mentioned. In such event am
authorized to do whatever the result of the
proposed interview may render necessary
or advisable. Should you accede to this
proposition, would suggest that, if agree
able to you, we meet at the place selected
by Gems. Ord and Longstreet for the inter
