conduct of some of the commanders Oh 'n0
provincial troops during the late troubles

DEAs0Ns WHY
AMERICAN WATGH
Made at Waltham, Mass.



Is THE BEST.
IT Is MADE ON THE BEST PRINCIPLE.
It's frame is composed of SOLID PLATES. NO
jar can interfere With the harmony Of its working
and NO sudden shock can damage its machinery.
Every piece is made and finished by machinery |
(tself famous for its novelty, well as for its ef-
fectiyeness) and is therefore properly made The
wstch is what ali mechanism should be-ACCu-s
RATE, SIMPLE, STRONG AND ECON0Mt-
CAL. Except some high grades, too costly Tor
general use, foreign watches are chiefly made BY
women and boys. Such watches are composed Of
several hundred pieces, screwed and nsited TO-
gether, md require constant repairs to keep them
| in any Kind of order. All persons who have car
ried "ancres, - g lepsnes and English Patent
Levers" are perfectly well aware of the truth Of
this statement
At the beginning of our enterprise, more than
ten years ago. it was our first object to make
thoroughly good low priced watch for the million,
1 to take the place of these foreign impositions-
the refuse of foreign factories-which were en-
tirely unsaleable at home and perfectly worthless
everywhere.
How well we have accomplished this may be
understood from the fact, that after so many
wears of public trial, we now make MORE THAN
HALF OF ALL THE WATCHES SOLD IN
THE UNITED STATES, and that no others
have ever given such universal satisfaction While
this department our business is continued with
increased facilities for perfect work, we are al
present engaged in the manufacture OF watches
of the very HIGHEST GRADE KNOWN TO
CHRONOMETRY, unequalled by anything nth
erto made by ourselves, and unsurpassed by any
thing made in the world. For this purpose We
have the amplest facilities. We have erected an
addition to our main buildings expressly for tnii
branch of our business, and have filled 1t with thu
} best workmen in our service. New machine
r and appliances have been constructed, wmcl
e perform their work with consummatc delicac
q and exactness. The choicest and most approve
9 materials only are used and we challenge com
\ uarison between this grade of our work and tn
l. finest imported chronometers We do not pr'
tend to sell our watches for less money than foreig
watches, but we do assert without fear OF contr
diction that for the same money our product
:. incomparably superior. All our watches, OF VIVA
ever grade are fully warranted and his warrants
is good at all times against US or our agents In
parts of the world.

The secession o. rebel papers are eagerly

The secession or rebel papers are eagerly
catching upand copying the recent treason
able speech Of Mr.. Harris, Of Maryland, de-
livered in the House of Representatives.
This affords one of the most striking eviden-
cesof bad feeling among the war people OF
the South. The Danville Times, for example,
says, . this speech is particularly soothing to
our Southern feelings, and it is, moreover,
calculated to do good at the South" The
good referred to must be to unite the
South, so-called still more against the ma
fional governassnt. The speech can have no
other effect. This was no doubt its object
We teilthe Congress it will not do to make
light of such speeches. They produce
most injurious effect among our people, ane
may lead in the end to bloodshed. Outspo
ken, defiant traitors ought not to be tolerated

The Columbus correspondent of the Cm-
cinnati Enquirer, under date of January
D., furnishes that paper and the public
with the annexed interesting information
in regard to the effort now being made in
the Legislature 10 remove Judge PARSONS
from office The necessity for II change in
the Presiding Judge of our Common Pleas
Court has long been apparent, but the
l yaodus operdndi by which il is proposed TO
effect it, win be new to many of our citi-
zens:
There Is quito wholesome feeling OF
. contempt among Legislative circles here
for the action of the majority of the House
Committee on the Judiciary, in the ease OF
Judge Parsons, of Miami County, sought to
be impeached and deprived of his Office for
the benefit of Mr.. lchobad Corwin. who, 1t
is said has promise of the Governor to be
made Judge MS soon Us Parsons is disposed
of and his Office taken from him. IN the
preamble and resolutions, the Judiciary
Committee PREJUDICE the ease by the posi-
tive assertion that Judge Parsons alas be-
come, and now is, hopelessly insane" and
then set February rs the day for trying
the case, and removing him from office, and
they charge their clerk with the duty OF
notifying this "hopelessly insane' man In
writing, five days in advance of the pen
uelCy Oh JncSe pIocccullps, W 1io Vliu' IL
is supposed, that the crazy man may come
forward and prove that he is of sound
mind, and thus reverse the Judgment.
Could any thing be more ridiculous o.
The truth is, Judge Parsons Is not insane
lie has had fits of apopleXy fora ,ong time,
and his mind has been gradually giving
way, until he has become, not insane but
idiOtic. lie was fast approaching this state
81 when he was selected rs the Judge to
preside at the trial of Brown for the mrr7
derof Bollmeyer of the Dayton EMPIRE
and the strange things that happened on
that trial were defended by the party
friends of the accused, when he was bid "a
20 acquit of crime. But little more tie
mented now than then, vet too far gone to
be of further use to his party, he is now,
In advance, declared guilty of hopeless
insanity, and Is to be notified in writing,
five days in advance, to prepare for his
trial before the same men who thus pre-
Judge his case. The anxiety to give Icha-
bod Corwin Office must be great, when the
majority of the Judiciary Committee of an
Ohio House of Representatives will act
thus. If Mr.. Corwin takes office under
these circumstances his friends can truly
say: "Iehabod, the glory of thy house has
denurIpd.n
