The people of this country, who are en-
tirely Indifferent as to whether Prussia or
Austria is the victor in the approaching
contest have nevertheless q lively inter
est in the success of Italy-young, free,
liberal Italy, the Italy of Garibaldi-in
her effort to throw off the Austrian yoke
and complete the achievement of national
unity. They will therefore learn with
feelings of disappointment and sorrow
that, in the first battle of the continental
war, the Italians were routed by the Aus
trians. fgt
The c larrel between Italy and Austria
IS one { long standing. 1T is in reference
to the possession of Venice which is, in
blood, in language, in climate and in his
tory, italian, but which was absorbed by
Austria, in 1915, under the Treaties of
Vienna, and is still held by her. The
italian war of 1859 pushed back the Aus
tro-Italian boundary to the MineiO.
The present wal is entered into by Italy
as an opportunity of driving her ancient
foe back into the Businesses of the Tyrol
and planting the Italian flag Over the
palace of San Marco.
The theatre of the wal became there
fore the division line between Lonbardy
and Venetia, formed by the river Mincio,
and that between Ferrara and Venetis
formed by the Pc. Inasmuch as the for
mer line was guarded by that famous
square of fort esses at Peschiera, Verona
Mantna and Legnago, called the Quad,
rilateral-a series of citadels almost a;
famous in their way IS Gibraltar Oh
Ehrenbreitstein-it was expected that an
attempt would be made to outfsnk tkem
and to march on Venice by the banks Of
the Pc. Victor Emanuel chose another
course. He crossed the Mincio between
Mantua and Peschiera with his center,
numbering about $4,000 men, to at
tack the fortresses of the Qusdrilateral
and advanced upon Verona. Hehad pen

and was thus surrounded on all sides by
Austrian troops, when he was met by
Austrian troops from Verona, at Custezzs,
and after a s~anguinary struggle, of which
the telegraph has given u readers full
accounts, he was repulsed and fell back
again across the Mincio.
This inauspicious beginning will con-
siderably retard the italian campaign.
General Cialdini, who commands the
Italian right wing at Ferrara, will not now
dare 70 cross the Pc, and Garibaldi, at
Como, among the Venetian Alps, must
wait there until the centre and key to the
whole movement is ready to cooperate in
. new attack. But the Italians, though
repulsed, are not discouraged The war
ire SIN burns brightly among them, and
they are ready to make any sacrifice and
meet any peril te free and reunite their
Loved land.

senate army RtII.

The Army bill passed by the Senate
provides for five regiments of artillery,
twelve regiments of cavalry, and forty.
five regiments of infantry. Three of the
new regiments of cavalry are to be col
ored troops. 1t revives the Office of Cen
eral, and provides for only one Lieuten-
ant General, five Major Generals and ten
Brigadier Generals. 1t abolishes the
office Of suffer, and authorizes the In
spector General to designate whstsrticles
NAV be sold to officers and men, and the
Department Commissaries will furnish
them at cost price. This is scarcely an
improvement IN the suttling system 1t
would, if carried into practice, merely
transfer the steaiings to quarter masters,
commissaries, or whatever other officers
-ag4-a ~ aos4uoT W oAoIC4so tue duties
without increasing the efficiency of the
system. Under the present law, a sutler
is in the military service, bound to OBJ
serve army regulations, and amenable to
military laws. If the provisions of the
law regulating his Office were strictly en-
forced, there would be no necessity for
sbolishing the Office. The Senate bill
differs in several important respects from
the House bIll, but these differences will
probably be adjusted by Committee of
Conference of the two Houses, so that, in
some shape, the Army bill will pass Con-
gress soon.

The Man who DONE Vote.

General Sherman said at the soldiers
meeting, in Salem, Ill, on the 4th, that he
never voted but once in bis life. The
General intended by that to express his
distsste for politics, which certainly in
some of their meaner aspects are not in
viting TO any cultivated mind; but it is
nothing to the credit of any mans char
acter as a citizen and patriot to abstain
from voting. Good men, by far too many
of them for the country, do it however:
and Ofentimes, in closely contested LEGAL
tiles, the wrong-besded, wrong-hearted,
rowdy element fill responsible offices with
irresponsible, corrupt men, which might
and should be prevented if the too fastid-
ious good men would perform their
whole duty as members of the commop-
wealth. A mAn who, from whatever mo
tives, refrains from exercising the elective
franchise is as much responsible for the
abuses and corruptions that creep into the
administration of public affairs, as The
man who knowingly votes wrong.

Is THE BEST.
IL Is made on the best principle. Its frame is
composed Of OLD PLATES. No Jar can inter
fere with the harmony Of its working and no end
den shock can damage its machinery. Every
piece is made and finished by machinery Gtself IA

ness) aud is therefore proper y made. The watch
5 what all mechanism should be~-ACCURATE,
SIMPLE, STRONG AND ECONOMICAL. Ex-
cept some high grades, too costly for general use,
foreign watches are chiefly made by women and
boys. Such watches ars composed Of several hun
dred pieces, screwed and riveted together, and re-
quire constant repairs to keep them in any kind of
order. All persons who have carried "sneres, -
'~'lepines" and English Patent Levers are per-
fectly we'll 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 a
thoroughly good low priced watch for the million,
to take the place OF these foreign impositions-the
refuse Of foreign factories-vhich ~ao-s-tirsIy
uusaIeable at home and perfectly worthless every
where.
How well we have accomplished this may be IN
derstoOd from the fact, that after so many years
of public trial, we now make MORE THAN HALF
oFALL THE WATCHES SOLD INT THE UNITED
STATES, and that no others have ever given such
universal satisfaction. While this department Of
our business is continued With increased ~faciIiiies
for perfect work, we are at present engaged in the
manufacture Of watches of the very HIGHEST
GRADE KNOWN TOCa' ONOMETRY, unequal.
led by anything hitherto made by ourselves, and
unsurpassed by anything made in the world. For
this purpose we have the aDplest facilities. We
have erected sn addition to our m4in buildings
expressly for this branch Of our business, and
have filed it with the best workmen in our ser.
vice. New machines and appliances have been
which perform their work with con
summste delicacy and exsctness. The choicest
and most approved materials only are used and
We challenge comparison between this grade Of our
work and the finest imported 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 is incompsrsbly superior. All our watches |
Of whatever grade, are fully warranted and this
is good at all times against Us or our
agents In all parts OF the world.
CAUTIoN.-The public are cautioned to buy
only Of respectable dealers. All persons selling /
