CAUTION FROM THE
AMERICAN WATCH COMPANY,

1t having come to our knowledge that inn
itations OF ihe American Watch have been
put upon the market in great ncmber, calcuA
lated by their utter worthlessness to injura
the reputation Of our genuine producfs: 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
"APPLETQN, TRACY & CO., Walthatn,
Mass" engraved on the inside plate.
The Third has the name
''P. S. BARTLETT, Waltham, Mass" en'
grayed on the inside plate:
All the above styles have the name Amera
lean Watch Co; painted on the dial, and ara
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 TIE above described watches are made
Of various sizes, and are sold in gold or silver
cases, rs may be required.
1t is hardly possible for US to accurately
describe the numerous limitations to which
we have alluded. They are usually inscribed
with names so nearly approaching our own
as to escape the observation of the unaccus~
toned buyer. Some are represented as made
by the "Union Watch Co., Of Boston, Mass
no such company existing. Some are
named the "Soldier;s Watch" to be sold es
our Fourth or VIM. Ellery style, usually
known nc the "Soldicr's Watch" Others are
named the "Appleton Watch Co. )" others
the 2. S. BartLEY," instead of our ''P S. Bart
lett = besides many varieties named in such
a manner as to convey the idea that they ars
the Yeritable productions of the American
Watch Company.
we also caution the public, and particu-
larly soldiers, against buying certain articles
CALLED watches. SO freely advertised in illus
tratcd papers as Army Watches" :sOficer
| Watches" +" 'Magic Time Observers y "Arcan..
! Watches" &C.. the prices of which are stated
| to be from seven to sixteen dollars. A good
watch, in these times, cannot be afforded for
any such money.

protect them from gross imposition.

HgS@ Que Of our government officials Just
returned from Peru, tells US that among The
FIRST and most frequent inquiries made ofhim
there about our public r2en was, whether he
knew or had ever seen the celebrated Amer
ican Chemist, DIR. J. C. Aver of Lowell. His
remedies are found in every village from the
elevated slopes OF tie Andes down to the
coast, and their remarkable cures seem to
attract even more attention there than in this
country. The scntir,ent Of wonder ut their
effects, takes far deeper hold on halr civ
ilized and superstitous people than it does
with as where thu rationale of r1edica] prob
lens is so much more generally understood.
No other American has made himself so fa-
railiarly known to the masses of the people
in foreign countries or excited in them so
lively an interest in hiself as the Doctor has
by his skillfui application OF chemical science
to the treatment Of disease,
That must be a dull man who does not feel
some pride Of country when he finds among
distant nations that lie is already known and
welcome there, through the labor3 Of our
Statesmen, Merchants and Scholars, whose
renown has become national property, and
consequently in some measure his own.-
Whether DR.. Ayers remedies do actually
cure more than others or not, they have Sc
cured the reputation OF being God1send to
those afflicted with disease, and where great
numbers in any community believe that they
owe their health and lives to ones skill, they
are sure to feel an interest in him which will
find expression when they meet his country

are numbered drawers, in which, under

the counter of about four feet square. In
little paper boxes will be found samples of
oats, wheat, corn, barley, -four, lard, tai

card lying or sticking on the top of the
little box tells to whom the article belongs
and the amount for sale. Ia one little box
was quart of wheat. On the card was
marked "Choice amber, 27 900 bushels. !"

More Talk About the Evacuation
of Richmond.

NEw YORK, Feb. l3 The HerAld,s des.
patches from the army of the James men.
ton renewed rumors of preparations bv
the rebels for the evacuation OF Richmond.
Deserters end others who came into the
National lines last Friday night, unani.
mously coucurred in the statement that
the enemy's artillery on the north side of
the James river, in front of the Union
works, was being removed, They also
said that orders had been given by Lee for
the court msrtialing of any of his men
caught at the distance of half a mile in
the rear of his lines. This would seem to
confirm the report, or at least to indicate
that something more than ordinary was in
progress among the rebels in the. vicinity
Of Richmond.
