National is responsible for the following:
The driver of the Meadow Lake stage had
narrow escape from the paws of monster
grizzly, on Saturday night. Itseems he had
stopped the stage and got off the box for the
purpose of fixing his light before ascending
the grade. While thus engaged he heard a
rustling in the shruboery behind him, and
the horses commenced to jump, admonishing
him that some danger was near. He had
barely time to jump on the box and take
hold of the lines, when the horses started
and went up the grade "kiting." Passengers
in the stage saw the eyes of the monster
peering out from behind the bushes. He
made slight effort to follow the stage, but
the horses were too many for him.

receive the exclusive attention of gentlemen

distrust of large capital welded by adroit
hands, on one side, and the necessary '.sci-

retards prolific development of mines which
lack the necessary pecnniary assistance. At
times, capital finds its way to districts which
do not, and probably never would furnish
speculative items for the San Francisco stock

large percentage to judicious outlay. A
large number of failures in actual mining

application of biased theoretical convictions,
and the absence of experience to detect MINOR

screwed and riveted together, and require
constant repairs to keep them in any kind of
order. All persons who have carried 'ancres.'
'lepines," aud English Patent levers,n 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, to take the place of these for
eign impositions-the refuse of foreign fac
tories-which were entirely unsaleable al
home and perfectly worthless everywhere.
How we'll we have accomplished this NAV
bel understood from the fact. that after 20
many years 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 de-
partment of our business is continued with
increased facilities for perfect work we are at
present engaged in the manufacture of watch
es of the very HIGHEST GRADE KNOWN
TO CHRONOMETRY, unequalled by any,
thing hitherto made by ourselves, and nnsur-
passed by anything made in the world. For
this purpose we have the ampest facilities.
We have erected an addition to our main
buildings expressly for this branch of our bu-
siness. and have filled it with the best work
men in. Jour service. New machines and an
pliances have been constructed. which per
form their work with consummate delicacy
and exactness. The choicest and most ap-
proved materials only are used and we cbal
lenge comparison between this grade of our
work and the finest imported chronometers.
Wedo not pretend to sell our watches for less
money than foreign watches, but we do assert
without fear of contradiction that Tor the
same money our product is incomparably su-
perior. All our watches. of whatever grade
are fully warranted ana his warrantee is good
at all times against US or our agents in All
parts of the world
CAUTION--The public are cautioned to
