Made at Waltham, Mass.
IN CONSEQUENCE OF THE RECENT
great decline in gold and silver and all the mate
rails used in the manufacture Of our goods, and
in anticipation of still further decline, we have
reduced our prices to as low point as they can
be placed
With Gold at Par,
SO that no one need hesitate to buy watch now
from the expectation that it will be cheaper at
some future time. The test of ten years and the
manufacture and sale of
More than 100000 Watches,
have given our productions the very highest rank
among time-keepers. Commencing with the de-
termination to make only thoroughly excellent
watches, our business has steadily increased as
the public became acquainted with their value,
until for months together, we have been unable
to supply the demand. We have repeatedly en-
larged our factory buildings until they now cover
over three acres of ground, and give accommoda-
tion to more than eight hundred workmen
We are fully justified in stating that we now
make MORE THAN ONE-HALF OF ALL THE

must be rebuilt, and the hearts of our sad
dened people made contented.
Unquestionably North Carolina is a men,
Der of the Union, unless we admit the prin-
ciple of secession, which has been crushed.
The effect Of the rebellion, therefore, was
only to paralyze our powers as State. A
spirit of genuine loyalty alone can revive
those powers. That spirit must be encour-
aged.
The storm has subsidized, but still the
waves roll, and unless we beware, they will

President, whom he believed to be an instru-
ment in the hands of God for the restoration
OF harmony. By the assistance of the South
ern people we can accomplish this work.
There were three tests laid down for them.
First, they must elect unmistakably loyal
men to office; second, they must repeal the
ordinance of secession, and burying the dead
Confederacy, cease to weep over its remains
third, they must abolish slavery.
He held that we were all guilty of the sin
OF omission, if not of commission The mad
spirit of fanaticism had swept all away for
the time being. And not until the despotic
acts Of the Confederate government stung
our people into life, did spirit of submis-
sion and returning loyalty to the govern
ment of our fathers take hold in their hearts
But we were forced to follow the leaders on |

proper, now, that these men should lead in
the work of reconstruction9 Does any one

Take One Side or the Oiher

In a recent conversation with gentle
men from Connecticut, which converse.
ton is published with the sanction OF
President JOHNSON, the President said
that when speaking of 1.-The Union par
ty" at this time he meant the party
which supports his Union restoration
policy, arhoerer they may be, and no others
He did not consider those who opposed
his policy as belonging to the Union
party. There should be no misrepre-
sentation in this matter; he considered
that the welfare of the Union depended
upon the success of his restoration pol
icy.
The President then said. The prin.
ciples of my restoration policy are tHnda-
mental. No man can approve of my pol
lev and that of Congress at the same
time. That is impossible InNew Hamp.
shire it was claimed that both policies
were supported, which, of course, could
not be- but after the election it was
claimed that Radical victory had been
achieved" He trusted the people wonld
not now he deceived
If, after this explicit declaration, any
radical newspaper IN this STATE claims
to support aud endorse the President,
while it is st the same time endorsing
the radical Congress. and advocating
here measures directly at variance with
the policy of the Federal administration
such as the test oath constitutional
amendment. registration law, and the
whole brood of radical enOrmities
Matched by our disunion legislature, it
will simply convict itself of wilful false
hood or absolute ignorance. There is no
middle ground upon which even the
timid souls holding Federal Office in this
State can stand They must range
themselves upon one side or the other,
for or against the restoration policy Of
the President, for or against the parti'
san schemes of the Congress. To en-
dorse both is impossible
