The reports Of the President and Su-

road to be most encouraging, and
present facts which viii convince the
most skeptical that the management Of
the road has been energetic and sue
cessfuL The last rail on the road was
laid on the 22d Of April, 1861; the
very day the Federals arrived at and
occupied Cairo. From that time to
the close Of the war the road was
virtually operated under the direction

rolling stock from the operations o.

raids, and from the natural wear anC

We have received a long printed cireu
lar, signed by Horace White, represent
ing the Chicago Tribune, and Mr.. Halls
tead, Of the Cincinnati Commercial,
asking our aid in procuring arepeal Of the
duty on printing paper, SO that the press
may get their white paper cheaper than
at present. We shall very cordially give
our help, if some practical plan be pre-
sented-but when Messrs. White and
Halstead suggest, as they do. that we get
our Senators and REPRESENTATIVES in
Congress interested in the repeal Of the
duty, We beg TO reply that it is absolutely
necessary that we have Senators and
Representatives in Congress before the
suggestion has any practical value.

may have been the unconstitutionalty of its
course, and its tendency to enlarge the executive
power, they do not, for moment, impute to him
any such design, but cheerfully concede to him

impeach his patriotism. Surrounded by insu,-

constantly in peril, and he clapg to the Union

REASONS WHY THE
AMERICAN WATCH
Made at Waltham, Mass,
Is THE BEST.

1t is made the best principle. Its frame is
composed of solid plates. No jar can interfere
with the harmony of it's working and sudden
shock damage its machinery. Every piece is
m ade and finished by machinery Itself famous for
it's novelty, well for effectiveness) and il
therefore properly made. The watch il what all
mechanism should be-Accurate, pie, Streng
and Economical. Except some high grades, too
costly for general use, foreign watches chiefly
made by women and boys Such watches are
composed of several hundred pieces, screwed
and riveted together, and require constant pairs
to keep them IL any kind of order. All persons
who have carried "ancres, - slepines' and ''Eng-
lish Patent Levers,'' are perfectly we'll aware of
the truth of this statement.
At the beginning ofour enterprise, more than ten
years ago, 1t was our first object to make Il thor
oughly good low priced watch for the million, to
take the place of these foreign inpositions-the
refuse of foreign factories-whic were entirely
unsuitable at home and perfectly worthless every
where.
How well we have accomplished this may be
understood from the tact, that after many years
of public trial, now make more than half of all
the watches sold in the United States, and that o
others have given such universal satisfaction.
While this department of our business is contn-
ued with increased facilities for perfect work, we
are at present engaged In the manufacture OF
watches OF the very highest grade known to
chronometry, unequalled by anything hitherto
made by ourselves, and unsurpassed by anything
made in the world. For this purpose we have
the amp lest facilities We have erected an addi-
ton to our main building expressly for this branch
of our business, and have filled 1t with the best
workmen in our service. New machines and ap-
pliances have been constructed which perform
their work with consummate deicacy and exact
ness. The choicest and most approved materials
only used and challenge comparison be-
tween this grade of our work and the finest i'm
ported chronometers. We do not pretend to sell
our watches for less money than foreign watches, ,
but we do assert without fear of contradiction
that for the same money our product 10 incompar-
ably superior. All oar watches, of whatever
sales are fully warranted, and this warrantee is

WHY IT WAS NOT DONE,

1t is conceded by the majority
that g it would undoubtedly
be competent for congress to waive all form
aiities, and to admit those confederate states
at once, trusting that time and experience
will set all things right" It is not therefore.
owing to a want of constitutional power that
it is not done. 1t ia not because such states
are not states with republican forms of gov
eminent. The exclusion must thsr efore rest
on considerations of safety CIR of expedency
alone The first, that of safety, We have ell
ready considered, and we think, proved to be
without foundation. Is there any ground
for the latter-expediency? We think not.
On the contrary, in our judgement, their ad-
mission is called for by the clearest expedi-
ency.
Those states include territorial area of $780,
600 square miles, an area larger than that of FIVE
of the leading nations of Europe. They have a
coast line of 5000 miles, with an internal water
line, including the Mississippi, of about 1000
miles. Their agricultural products in 1850 were
about S36o,000,000 in value, and their population
8, 6aa $3.50. Their staple productions are
of immense and growing Importance, and are
almost peculiar to that region. That the north
is deeply interested in having such a country and
people restored to all the rights and privileges
the constitution affords, sane man, not blinded
by mere party considerations, or not a victim of
disordering prejudice, can for moment doubt
Such restoration is also necessary to the peace
vital to the potential wealth which that portion
of our country is capable of. It cannot other
wise be fully developed.
