CAUTION
FROM
The AMERICAN WATCH co.

1t having come to our knowledge that limitations
of the American Watch have been put upon the
market in great numbers, calculated, by their utter
worthlessness, to injure the reputation of our gen
uine products, to protect our own interests and the
public from imposition, We again publish the trade
marks by which our Watches may invariably be
known.
We manufacture four styles of Watches
The FIRST has the name
"AMERICAN WATCH CO., Waltham, Mass"
engraved on the inside plate.
The SECOND has the name
"APPLEToN, TRACY CO., Waltham,
Mass engraved on the inside plate.
The THIRD has the name
"P. S. BARTLETT, Waltham, Mass" engrav-
ed on the inside plate.
All the above styles have the same American
Watch Co. painted on the dial, and are warranted
in every respect.
The FOURTH has the name
"WM. ELLERY, Boston, Mass" engraved on
the inside plate, and is not named on the dial.
All the above described Watches are made of
various sizes, and sold in gold or silver cases,
may be required.
It's hardly possible for us to accurately de-
scribe the numerous limitations to which we have
alluded. They are usually inscribed with names so
nearly approaching own as to escape the OBJ
servation of the unaccustomed buyer. Some are
represented made by the 'Unon Watch Co., of
Boston, Mass. such company existing. Some
named the Soldiers Watch, to be sold as our
Fourth or VIM. Ellery style, usually known as the
"Soldier's Watch;' others are named the Apple
ton Watch Co. = others the "P. S. Bartley,'' in
stead of our P. 5. Bartlett besides many varieties
named in such manner as to convey the idea that
they are the veritabe productions of the American
Watch Company
A little attention on the part of the buyers will
protect them from gross imposition.
For sale by the trade generally.

IN China, the beggars of every province
form themselves into kind of society, and
appoint one of their number as king. He
controls their movements, and directs them
where to go and beg. If he wishes to aff1ict
any village, he dispatches a gang of these
beggars TO the place, and there they stay un-
til their demands are satisfied If the peo.
pile of the village wish to avoid sach nuisance,
they can, by paying a certain sum to the
king of beggars, escape annoyance for a
years time. Whenever this is done, the
beggars disappear from the place, and come
no more during the stipulated time. In
China it is Impossible to rid ones self from
these people in any other way.

H Harvest has already COM
menced in this section of the county,
and considerable wheat cut. The
intensely hot weather causes it to
ripen rapidly. Reports from some
sections on the river are favorable.
Other sections quite the reverse
On the whole however, the wheat
crop will be an average one.
The late rains are causing the oats
and grass to fill out very fine, and
good harvests of both crops are an
icipated.
Corn is stretching up" very fast,
and requiring every energy of the
farmer to get in out of the way for
harvest. In many places it is yet far
short of what it should be. The
crop will be much better than antici
pated few week since. Potatoes
are very fine, and the yield will be
large. Fruit is very nearly failure.

one hour, in order to allow the boys
a chance to see their friends. Scarce

when the boys with a yell that made
"the welkin ring" rushed up the
leYee bound to have as much fun In
the. hour allowed them as possible.
The groceries closed like flash, and
in two minutes you could not buy a
glass of ale or whiskey in Gallipolis.
"Sherman's Bummers" as the boys
styled themselves were ready for a
"wee drap" and willing to patronize
the groceries extensively. Seldom
have we seen patronage SO extensive
ly declined.
The gallant SD looked like true
soldiers. They all seemed full of
fun and frolic, hearty and hale, and
not at all like men who had just come
out of campaign, the grandest in
conception, and most perfect in exc
cution the world has ever seen.

Ans. Three years from 18th Of June, 1865.
5th. Ques. Must receive back my money as

the Government, at that time, either your

Gold bearing per cent loan.
9th. Ques. III should need my money, be.
fore 1867, to invest in anything else, how
could get ili
Ans, These bonds will always be sGleabIe,
as the interest is paid every six months and
they cannot be taxed by States, Counties or
Towns, and this saves you from two 10 five

money to pay the interest, and is it safe and
sureI
Ans The Government collects, by taxes,
internal revenue, and duties on imports, fully
three hundred millions each year. This is

the interest on all the debt, and as soon as
the war is ended, the amount not needed to
pay the interest will be used in paying off
the debt. Our Government has paid off al her
debt, and can easily do so again. The interest
is sure to be paid promptly, and the debt
itself is the very safest investment in the
world. 1t is as safe as mortgage on good
farm, and pays better interest. 1t is, in
fact, a First MOTtgu9e on all lands, oil incomes,

E Our worthy fellow citizen Ju-
Illus E Pitrat, has taken trip north
ward expecting to be absent several
months. We trust the juorney may
be pleasant one. 1t cannot fail to
be profitable, as he was careful to
secure policy in the Travellers In
surance Co., for $4,000, in case of
death, or $1,000 per week compen-
sation in case of accident, and all
good for one year for the sum of ff-
teen dollars. We only advert to this
fact, as evidence that Mr.. PItrat is
good business man and leaves moth
ing to chance, when he can secure it
otherwise.
