PEACE.
The order emanating from the War
Department, but evidently inspired by
Gen. Grant, is timely, is judicious, is
welcome. Such are the first fruits OF
our recent victories, and as such they
are thrice welcome TO n peace loving
people, that for four weary years have
mingled in tho fiercest strife of the
century.
The day of provost marshals and
petty military martinetts is ended
Their occupation is gone, we trust for
ever A long farewell and a very
good radiance to the Buffers, the
Schencks, the Carringtons, and the
Dodges, who, dressed in little brief
authority, have managed to disgust
all law-abiding men with themselves
and their offices. The country can
well endure their return to private
life, where they must demean them
selves as do their fellow citizens OF
suffer the consequences.
Now, let the tillers Of the soil re-
sumo their joyous occupation, that the
earth may laugh with harvests. Now
is the time to develope our agricultu-
raj resources, that they may be ap.
piled to the removal of the obliga'
tons which have been incurred to

every blade of grass, every grain o.
corn, every shock of wheat, every boil

Friday evening we left New York
by Fall River steamer for Boston, in
company with Messrs. Lenheim and
Cross of East Saginaw, and arrived
at Boston at 7 A. M. Saturday heard
at the depot the appalling intelligence
of the assassination of President Lin.
coin and the attempted assassination
Of Secretary Seward. We have nc
words to describe the universal feel
ing of horror, doubt and dread en-.
gendered by this terrible news, =
everywhere it is but too painfully un.
derstood. Nowhere, and least of all,
in this envenomded commonwe alth, is
it rightly expressed? While not only
those who perpetrated the act, but
those concerned in and sympathizing
Herewith, should be made TO feel the
terrible vengeance of an outraged
people, the responsibility should by
no means in rash and indiscriminate
haste be so broadly placed as to i'm,
plicate those innocent in this regard,
on account of former completely with
the foul rebellion of which this is the
eliminating horror. Let the facts be
developed, and then let justice be done
though the heavens fall. G. F. l..

Edwin Booth has been plunged into
the deepest grief by the desperate act
of his brother, and it is telling fear
fully upon his sensitive nature. To-

well of the Boston public for time,
but-it is said that he has expressed a
determination never to appear upon

WHOSE Ok IS GoRED.-Robuck, the redoubt-
able British champion Of JEFF. Davis, in d re-
cent discussion in the English Parliment on
the condition Of Ireland, declared that the
differences existing between the Fenian par
ty and the British Government were so vital
that nothing can settle it but the sword at
means rebellion" exclaimed the Honorable
Mp, ''it means separation from England" :"
and so long as he had vote he was prepared
to put them the Feniansl down, with the
sword; if 1t be necessary" So rebellion in
Ireland is quite different thing 10 the Hon
Mr. Roe5uck from rebellion in America which
he regards with so much complacency as an
effort on the part of a people to establish their
independence.

s- On Monday afternoon, May Isl, a
meeting of persons interested in testing the
question "can Gil be found in this copmv in
sufficient quantities to pay for boring? ?" was
held in the Coudersport Hotel, and organized
by electing c. SMITH, Esq, President, and
u. ". 1cAlorney, Secretary. 4 Committee
oftwo was appointed tolease territory for the
use of the Company Messrs. P. \. Stebbins,
Jr., and e. J. Thompson, constitute the Com
mittee and will call on the farmers in this
vicinity for their assistance il the enterprise.
The let day Of June was appointed as the
tine 70. the organization Of the Company, at
which time operations viii commence if suf-
fcient territory IS leased to secure ron-resi
dents in the investment Of their money. The
Capital Stock of the Company is $4,000, d.
vided into thirty-two shares Of $3.50 each.
The whole amount Of Stock has been taken.
This amount It is thought, is sufficient to test
the oil question, and will be applied to the
boring of a well or wells at some point il or
near our Borough, along the AIIegany or some
ofits tributaries, And in this connection we
have word for the land-holders in the
county. The Company about organizing in
tend to develope the country and land leased
to them will be leased for that purpose and
not simply for speculation. A great many
leases have been taken throughout the county
by parties who never intend to make use of
them in any other way than as paper nDou
which to speculate. The policy of such 1
course cannot be 100 severely condemned,
Ifland is leased it should be to parties
who will make scne effort &c fnd oil. The
Company desire land leased to secure the CO.
operation Of capitalists from abroad It is
no more than fair if persons from abroad
invest their money in this experiment that
they should be secured in some way, and if g
certain number Of acres are lessca they will
consider it security, and proceed with the
operations. No one can reasonably obiec:
to leasing their land on these conditions, for
the simple reason that if oil is discovered
their share will be sufficient to make them
Independent, and If oil is not found they will
not be the losers in any sense. The property
holders in the great oil region of the west Of
the State, and who leased their lands for
one-eighth or one-tenth, are now the most
independent. Strangers who were present
at the meeting were very much pleased with
the appearance ofthe country and seemed to
consider the prospect Of finding oil very
favosable.

A FEW REASONS WHY THE
WATCH
IL THE REST.

It is made on the best principle, while the
foreign watch is generally made on no prin-
ciple at all. 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 lrreg-
ular in construction, and quite as Irregular
| in movement They ate designed only to
sell. and the buyer is the party most thor
oughIy sold. Those who have kept 'ancres,
! and miepiues" and "Swiss levers" in professed
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 interferes with the harmo-
ny of its working, and no sudden shock can
throw its machinery out OF gear. In riding,
or any business pursuit, it is all held :egether
as firmly as . single piece of metal. 1t IS just
what ali machinery should be
lst. ACCURATE. I'd. SIMPLE. Sd STRONG.
4t4 ECONOMICAL.
We not onlv secure CHEAPNESS by our
system, but QUALITY. We do not pretend
that our Watch can be bought for less money
than the foreign make-belieres, but that for It's
real value it is sold for one-half the price
OUR SOLDIERS WATCH manned VIM
Ellery) is what its name indicates-Soild,
Substantial, and always Reliable-warranted
to stand any amount Of Marching, Riding or
Fighting.
OUR NEXT HIGHER QUALITY OF
WATCH (named P s. Bartlettl is similar IN
size and general appearance, but has more
Jewels, and more elaborate finish.
OUR LADIES' WATCH, recently brought
out, is put up in great variety of patterns,
many of them of rare beauty and workman
ship, is quite small, but warranted TO keep
time.
OUR YOUNG GENTLEMAN'S WATCH is
neat not large, and just the thing Tor 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 demand.
CUR THREE QUARTER PLATE WATCH
is thinner and lighter than the others we have
described Its fine chronometer balance IS
delicately adjusted to correct the variation
caused by changes CT temperature. These
watches are the fruits of the latest expert
meuts in chron0metry, and are made by our
/ best workmen, in separate department OF
! cur factory. For the finest time-keeping
qualities they challenge comparison with the
best works of the most famous English and
i Swiss makers.
