A FoIBLE OF THE SEx.-Most of the unmar
ried ladies enjoy a pleasant delusion. They
seem to think men have a mama for getting
under beds; and, accordingly very few OF
them retire for the night without first going
through the ceremony of looking there. We
have never known of but one instance in
which the search was rewarded by success
The discovery was announced by little
scream of delight, and the lucky lady was
congratulated by her companion, with the re-
mark, Well, Jane, / am glad that you have
found hiu-for to my certain knowledge you
have been looking for him for the last twenty
years" 1t is q little singular that men new
or look under beds-to see if they can find q
woman there.

In consequence of the recent great decline in
gold and silver and all the materials used IN the
manufacture of our goods, and in anticipation of
sull further decline, we have reduced our
prices to low a point 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 hes 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
ton to more than eight hundred workmen-
We are fully justified in stating that we now
make more than one-halt of all the Watches sold
in the United States. The different grades are

More Swindling.

Our readers will remember thai
a part of the assets Of the Bank
of Tennessee, returned from Geor
gia, was about half a million of
dollars in gold. This metal, Brown
low snapped for 7.30 government
bonds, which were deposited with
R. L. Stanford, Radical State Treas
urer of Tennessee. 1t now ap-
pears that Stanford, as long ago as
last June, secretly transferred the
bonds, amounting with the interest,
to nearly seven hundred thousand
dollars, to the Tennessee National
Bank of Memphis. The result
is, it is said, that the Memphis
concern was bogus, has bursted,
and the State is swindled. A
committee, of which Spence is a
member! has been appointed by the
Legislature to investigate the mat
ter. Brownlow says to the Gene
raj Assembly:
The Treasurer demanded the
fund of the Comptroller, who held
it for safe keeping in a good and
sufficient safe, in fire proof build
ing, claiming it under a law
you enacted at your last session,
requiring the Treasurer to take
charge of this identical fund
Your law is either exceeding lame,
or its provisions looking to the safe
keeping of this sacred fund have
not been complied with, and, there
fore, i invite your early and vigl-
liant attention to this subject.
George R. Rutter, President OF
the Memphis bank, says the mon
ey is Sqfe-which we do not doubt
and if checked upon at intervals
say 100000 per month--he
would be able to honor the drafts.
Unfortunately, the people know,
by experience, what such promis-
es are worth. Spence promised,
upon his honor! that the Exchange
Bank should be made good, and
SO it was, but twas good for moth
ing.

The demand for Cry goods. boots and shoes,

al standard and prices have been well sus-

the tendency has been rather downward. A
general scarcity vt currency in this section and
