BOLTON'S HOTEL,

The following notice, clipped from the
Patriot &c Union, in reference to the "Bol-
ton House" and its proprietor GEo. ]. BoL-
TON, who was formerly Of this place. is a
welI-eafhrd and richly deserved tribute to
the talents, ability and energy ofthat gen.
tlspan.
Our friend, 9. W. Hunter. the clerk of
the house, who has knack of making his
guest feel so much at home, we see, too, is
earning for himself golden opinions,
There are few men Who have achieved
higher reputation as hotel keeper than
our friend George J. Bolton, proprietor
and manager of Bolton's Hotel in Market
Square A number of years experience
in the business, both in THIS place and Cape
May. has secured for him a reputation
which cannot fail IT, continue in the future
His well.known stand in this place, which
for many years was called the "Baehler
House." has so materially improved un-
der his management that it is no more
than justice to him that we make mertion
of the fact. One year ago new story was
added to the building, which was a decided
improvement, and the rt ons have been re-
papered. rcfiited and refurnished through
out. TINS was zone at great cost, in
vnlving an expenditure of thousands of
dollars. From beginning to end the
house Is pattrrn of good order. and the
largely increased patronage bestowel up-
on Mr. Bolton shows that the public, in
some degree, appr" "ciate the vast improve
ments he has made. Every apartment is
provided with gas and water, aud the beds
for cleanliness and comfrt, are not ex
celled in the State. Three bath ooms are
upon the first floor, which avoids the necessi
ty of guests going to unwholsome places for
comtnrts of the kind. The table is well
supplied with every variety the market
affords, and the servants. ot whom there il
a goodly number. are attentive and oblie
ing. NJ other house in PENNSYLVANIA has
better reputation. and il can be said with
truth this reputation is deserved. Those
who cannot ind comforts and conyenien.
ces at this house, need not expect to find
them at any hotel. Every person who
knows anything about public house, will
admit that much of its perfection depends
upon its chief clerk. We need only to
refer to Mr.. George w. Hunter. the gen
tlemanly and fficirnt charge de ofa,res. to
say all that is needed in that particular
We will conclude this article by saving,
that Harrisburg is fortunate in having Bol-
tons Hot', and in Mr.. Bolton a it's pro-
Prietor. The latter is popular everywhere
an We hope his stand will long continue
in is present excellent condition. and the
worthy host reap handsome reward for
his 'abors."

MExIco.-For the last time, probably,
it is said the French troops are soon to be
withdrawn from Mexico. Minister Camp
bell and General Sherman having received
orders to proceed at once 10 that country,
1t is evident that crisis of some sort has
arrived or is about to arrive in its destiny.
fthe French troops are to be withdrawn,
with Maximilan at their head, it will re-
quire the immediate Intervention of this
Government to settle the local differences
existing between the rival Contestants for
power. Without some outside influence
of a powerful character the country would
undoubtedly soon relapse into worse con-
dition than before or during the Empire
1t is said that our Government has already
entered into an agreement with the Jurez
branch, and that it will be recognized and
supported with material aid, if necessary,
against Ortega and all other aspirants. In
consideration of that support the United
States are TO get large portion Of the ter
ritory Of chihuahua, nearly the whole of
Sonora, and all of the peninsula Of Lower
California. The line has not yet been fix
ed, but will run from the Rio Grande, near
Ell Paso, to the Gulf of California, includ-
ing the port of Guaymas. These will be
important and substantial gains. We will
secure not only new routes to the Pacific
and entire control of the Gulf of California,
but acquire about thousand miles OF sea
coast-from Cape Lucas to Sap Diego

American Msnufactures--the American
Watch Co. of Wattham, Mass.

Every one knows that the mechanism of

the American Watch Company of Wal

1t employs between 900 and 1000 srti 4.
zans ofsupcrior skill and character, and
large and thriving town has grown up in
its vicinity. The factory covers over Zee
acres Of ground, and as an illustration of
its extrnt, We may mention that it is sup
piled ai,h more than 60 miles of iron pipes
and produces an Aggregate OF nrarly Is, 600
watches per annum. The fun'ierS ofihis
Company believed that the same delicate
mechanical processes which had produced
such remarkably perfect results in larger
machines, might b.. applied with even
greater advantage TO til production Of the
watch. The foreign time pieces are made
principally by hand, and except when of
hign cost, an imperfect arIic e, often out of
iepair, and of little value is the result
Abroad, these mysterious and infnitesima
organs which, when aggregated, produce
the watch, are the fruit of slow and toll
some manuel processes In the results.
there must OF course be lack Of that per-
feet uniformity which is Indispensable for
correct time-keeping. The constituent
parts of the American watch, on the other
hand, are fashioned by the most delicate
and accurate machinpry. Wheels, pin
ions, springs, screws, absolutely uniform in
weight. circumference, dimensions. and 10
every possible particular, are turned ont
in myriads by unerring fingers of steel,
and their proper combination and adjust

Four negroes are now serving on juries
in Boston-one in the Superior Court for
criminal business, one in the first session of
the Superior Court for civil business, and
two in the second session. The Boston
Commonwealth. the organ of Senator Sun
ner, chronicles this fact as showing that the
idea Of negro equality has been lifted into
more vita!ized existence by the late elec
tions. Those Of our people who thought
that negro equality was not an issue in the
late contest in this State, e,wrll now find they
were in error. Each Radical triumph is q
step nearer to the equality Of the white and
the negro race IN this country.

A Cross WOMAN.-Tne idea of a wo-
man getting cross and ugly when things in
the family do not run quite as smoothly as
they should, is simply ridiculous. She
make herself an obj'ct OF loa'hing and
contempt whenever sh is guilty of such
nonsense. The Almighty has created her
for purpose entirely different to this in
sane and foolish indul ulgence IN angry pas
sions He has made her beautiful and At
tractive in her person. endowed her with
sensibilties and rcfnemrnts of mind and
manner which, when properly cultivated,
lead to the elevation of the higher aud ho-
lirr feelings Of nature. Think Of being
thus constituted getting cross on every
trifing OCCASION. How she Insults he
Creator, and prostitutes th"se excellent
Qualities which the stern sex do not possess,
and which seem to be reserved by heaven
for her alone. Think of this, fair woman,
whenever the devil temps you to sin.-
You may forfeit all within your grasp;
worldly happiness, personal esteem, do
mestic felicity, that peace of mind which
arises from a Consciousness of duty we'll
and fanhfully performed, and what is more
than all, you may forfeit the favor of your

THE BALTIMORE TROUBLES.
THE NEW POLICE COMMISSION ERs
SEIZED BY THE RADICAL REB-
ELS.
A Collision Hourly Expected

The troubles in Baltimore between
the Governor and the Radical Rebels are
thickening. After full examination of
the charges of ma.feasance against the po.
lice commissioners of the city, and alter
beng fully satisfied of their guilt Governor
Swami in the exercise of his duty declared
their seats vacant and appointed two CON-
servatives, Messrs. Valiant and Young. in
their stead. After being duly qualified
they proceeded TO the public buildings and
made,a formal demand of the old Commits
sioners, of the public buildings properly and
papers. A warrant was issued by Judge
Bond, a most violent radical, whereupon
they, the newly appointed commissioners,
were seized and hurried off to Jail. All
business in the city is suspended and col
l;sion is hereby xpected-Gens, Grant
and Candy are at the city and is reported
to have several regiments under marching
order to queil any disturbance of the peace.
A writ of habeas corpus has been issued
ny one ofthe judges of the supreme court
which, ifrespected, will probably result in
their release. Serious riots and disturban.
ces are frequently occurring and still more
serious work is hourly expected.
