Something New.

We call attention to the advertisement of
the Duplex Elliptic or double Spring Skirt
Though recent invention, it has become very
popular, and is rapidly obtaining the prefer
ence over other kinds in use. The rods in it
are composed each of two delicate and we'll
tempered steel springs, which are ngeniously
braided together edge to edge, the lower rods
heavier, and having double covering. This
popularity of construction makes these skirts
very strong and durable, and also so exceed
ingly flexible that it rapidly adapts itself to
the form of the wearcr, and allows of any
amount of doubling and crushing without in
jury to its shape. These are advantages which
ladies, who have experienced the discomfort
and inconvenience of single springs, will duly
appreciate,

Friends of Democracy i'm Pennsylvania!

Now is your time to labor for equal rights,
for Universal Suffrage. This winter our
State Legislature will act upon the subject OF
Negro Suffrage. Shall those who form the
Legislature know what the people, for whom
they act, wish to have done? Should we
not count it privilege to let them know
that we wish our laws to be democratic and
universal That we wish the anti-demo-
cratic, unchristian, Jewish notion of caste to
be stricken from them? Let Potter then, as
it is among the foremost counties in all re-
forms, be the first in this, and ask first for
universal suffrage. Let US, her citizens by
subscription pay our Editor for printing a
goodly number of copies of a petition to the
Legislature for such an amendment CT the
State Constitution as shall give the elective
franchise to men of African descent-to men
of every race and color-upon the same con-
ditons as are now required for free white
men; these copies to be distributed IN this
and other counties.
Here goes twenty-five cents for that ptr-
pose. Who will subscribe H.H.

CAUTION FROM THE
AMERICAN WATCH COMPANY.

1t having come to our knowledge that i'm
itationS Of ibe American Watch have been
put upon the market in great number, calcu.
lated by their utter wortLlessness to injure
the reputation of our genuine products, to
protect our own interests and the public from
imposition, we again publish the trade marks
by which our Watches may invariably be
known.
We manufacture four styles of Watches.
The First has the name
"AMERICAN WATCH CO.. Waltham,
Mass" engraved on the inside plate;
The Second has the name
APPLETON, TRACY l. CO, Taitham,
Mass" engraved on the inside plate.
The Third has the name
"P. S. BARTLETT, Waltham, Mass" en-
raved on the inside plate.
All the above styles have the name Amer
lean Watch Co. painted on the dial, aud arS
warranted in every respect.
The Fourth has the name
"WM. ELLERY, Boston, Mass" engraved
on the inside plate, and is not named on tbs
dial
All the above described watches are made
of various sizes, and are sold in gold % silver
cases, rs may be required.
1t is hardly possible fer u9 to accurately
describe the numerous limitations 10 which
we have alluded. They are usually inscribed
with names SO nearly approaching our own
as to escape the observation of the unaccus-
toned buyer, Some are represented as madd
by the "Union Watch Co, Of Boston, Mass
no such company existing. Some are
named the "Soldier'S Watch" to be sold ID
our Fourth or Vim. Ellefy style, usually
known as the "Soldier's Watch" Others are
named the "Appleton Watch CO, :" others
the P S. BartLEY," instead Of our up s. Bart
lett )" besides mary varieties named in such
manner as t0 convey the idea that they ara
the veritable productions of the American
Watch Company.
We also caution the public, and particus
larly soldiers, against buying certain articles
CALLED watches. so freely advertised in Illus
trated papers as "Army Watches" ;'0fhceT's
Watches" "Magic Time Observers" "Areana
Watches" &C.. the prices of which are stated
to be from seven to sixteen dollars. A good
watch, in these times, cannot be aff6rdsGs,,

GFEvery Saturday-is the title of new
weekly literary paper published by the famous
book house of Ticknor Fields. 1t contains
thirty octave pages, handsomely printed in
double columns, with an illustrated title page.
The reading matter is made up entirely of
choice extrects from current foreign literature.
The initial number contains eight selections,
two from Once Week, two from The Argosy,
one from the Shilling Magazine, one from the
Spectator, and one by Dr. John Brown, 1t the
selection from Chas. Reade's new magazine is
a new poem from the pen of MISS Ingelow.-
The matte. of the first number is all light,
pleasant, and pnexceptionable reading to the
traveller and the wearied man of business the
reading OF this number will furnish a desirable
mental recreation. We trust this mode of
culling will be adhered to. A periodical made
up entirely of frst-class light literature is
needed IN this country, and Euery Saturday
can supply this desideratum.
