has authorized safe conduct to be given to

appears to have been incorrect in stating that
c,rtaiin members of,he Legislature had held a
meeting in that city. The meeting, we are
now told, was simply an informal conference
and consultation Of private individuals, among
whom we're five or six members Of the Legis.
lature. Their object in assembling was to hear
from Judge Campbell the conditions offered
by President Lincoln to facilitate the return OF
Virginia into the Union The meeting result
ed in the ap pointment ola committee to wait

How THEY Do IT IN New YORK.
The report of the committee of Congress
on public expenditures states that a
Mr.. Mudgett, who gave information as
to 100000 of mining stock owned in
New York by the rebel Gen. Mercer, was
required to divide the informer's share
equally with Ethan Allen, United States
assistant district attorney. This prac-
tice gives government officers a heavy
interest in confiscation. Another pecul-
lar operation discovered in New York
was that by which cases for the recov-
cry of duties illegally paid are referred
to the clerk of the United States courts
for adjustment, for which he receives a
$50 fee in each case. The matter belongs
TO the collector of the port, and there is
no legal authority for extorting a fee.
But they know how to do such things
in the metropolis.

American Manufacturers ----- the
American Watch Co.

Our readers, we are sure, are not gen
orally aware of the great impetus that
has been given to manufacturers since
the beginning Of the war. The high
rates of exchange, and the necessities Of
the army, have made the Eastern hills
and valleys resound with the hum of
busy machinery, and nowhere has ma
chinery done more or created a greater
revolution in production and trade than
in the manufacture of the watch. What
was once the toilsome, slow and uncer-
tain result of hand LABOR only, is now
the swift demonstration Of unvarying
mechanical forces. The same class of
genius that invented the telegraph and
the sewing machine invented the deli
cate and wonderful mechanism that
takes hold of the raw material-the
brass and steel, and gold, and precious
stones, and under competent direction
turns out that daily wonder and necessi-
ty-a perfect time keeper. That genius
is essentially american, and has been
found, collected, assimilated and made
productive by the American Watch Co.,
at Waltham, Mass. Taking the best
fruits of several years experiments, they
established their factory nearly ten
years ago, which they have been COM
PEELED to enlarge from year to year until
they now employ seven hundred work
men, and turn out product valued at
million and half of dollars per an
num-or equal to that of all other watch
es now sold in this country. The secret
of this Company's success is that they
have done what they promised-that
they have furnished first rate substan-
tial watch at a moderate price-and this
is the great difference between their
watches and the ordinary importations
from Europe. Except certain very high
priced varieties, the European watch is
the result of cheap and unskilled hand
labor, that never goes well, and in a
shert time costs more than it comes to"
in repairs. The American Watch Co.
gives a guarantee for the quality of all
their products, that is good with any
dealer who sells them.-Rrekangt

WEDNESDAY, MARCH 30, 1865.
Tux RpnKh ATTACH LAST SATURDAY.


Tux REBEL ATTACK LAST SATURDAY.
Various conjectures are made as TO
the cause of Lees sudden attempt on
our lines last Saturday. The general
impression seems 10 be that owing TO
the continued triumphant advance Of
sherman, the destructive raid Of Sheri-
dan, the rapidly increasing assertions
from the rebel armies, and the ruinous
dependency fast settling like a black
cloud down upon the rebel capital, it be-
came necessary for Lee to make some
desperate effort TO divert rebel attention
and infase new courage into the rebel
heart that the rebel commander sup
posed Grant had sent heavy REINFORCE
ments to Sherman and thus weakened
his lines about Petersburg and Rich
! Uond and seized the opportunity TO
L nass force against single point of
o ar front In the desperate hope of re-
II. tevlng the rebel fortunes and encour-
agi. M his followers. If this be the cor
rect supposition, Lee greatly miscalcu-
lated. Gen. Grant did, about the time
sherl nan was leaving Savannah, send
re-enfCrcements TO Charleston, Whining
ton and Newbern, but that was some
time ago and new recruits have been
pouring into Meade's army to supply
their places. Lee found himself disas-
trously mistaken in supposlng our lines
materially weakened.
Another superstition is that Lees at
tack was made to cloak movement of
q portion of his army southwark to re-
q nforce Johnston. If this is true, we
ma trust to Grants speedily finding it
out and acting accordingly. The rebel
conan, nder in chief is between two
fires. L. he seeks to escape one it
quickly 70 lows him while he runs hope
lessly into The face of the other, And the
Westward avenues of escape from both
fires are being closed against him by the
mastery combinations of Grant. The
crisis is at hard which is to decide-not
the fate of the "ConfederaCy'' for that is
already decided-but whether this pres
emit campaign is to wipe the thing from !
The face of the earth forever. Every
loyal heart will hope, enc enc every loyal
voice will pray that it may, both for
the good of the deluded people of the
South and the relief Of the Union loving
people of all sections.

Mr.. GARRISON AND THE LIBBRAToR.-

Providence to determine"
Mr.. Garrison, whose statesmanlike
and philosophical view of our contro-

by many of his friends, still vigorously
defends Gen. Banks and his policy

WHITE DRER.-The Malone Palladium
says that a white deer was lately taken
alive near the town of Franklin, N. Y.
The deer is as white as snow, all except
his ears and spot on the top of his
head, and a slight tinge of gray on each
side of the shoulder. Aside from that,
nothing can be any whittier. He was
taken on the 4th of March inst, and is
now as tame as sheep, and will eat out
of persons hand with as little fear as
any domestic animal.
