The American Watch Company, of walthan, Nass

KIT. They simpler in structure and therefore
stronger and less likely TO be injured than the ma
jority of foreign watches which ccmporei Of from
LIS to 800 pieces, while old English watch there
more than 700 parts. How they under the

lowing letter:

young man did as Tritill had told him

When she had gone, he called to Trit-
I'll and Litlll, who came and picked out
one OK out of the herd; and they flayed
1t in triee, and set the meat on large
cauldron. so that it was ali ready against
the enchantress returned home at night.
80 the next morning the enchantress,
who was very much aStonished but at ths.
same time felt that she could not break
her word, asked him what were the three
things he would like to have
First, [ will have that which is inside
that door, pointing to cupboard; next
the large chest; and thirdly, your arm
chair
So she opened the door; and there the
young man saw the kings long lost
daughter looking so beautiful; the chest
was full of jewels and costly diamonds.
So the young man placed the princess on
the chair, underneath, which he placed
the chest, while he himself stood behind
it. That moment they felt themselves
lited up, for the chair was the enchanted
one, and would go wherever it was bid.
oh. / do wish TO go home, sighed
the princess.
and Ia an incredibly short space of
time, the young man and the princess
alighted at the palace door. but the chair
had become beautiful chariot, drawn
by eight milk white horses.
Wondering who it could be, the king
and queen rushed to the door OF the pal
ace, just in time to hand their daughter
down from the carriage, dressed in the
most beautiful dress that was ever seen.
Then the young man told his history;
and the king in his great joy preached an
immense cask of ale which had been
brewed when his daughter was born. ana
which it was only intended to tap when
she should be betrothed in marriage.
And so they married and lived very
happily for many long year.

HAYTI.

The news from Hayti, which we published
yesterday, is confirmed by later advices direct
from Port -au Prince which we print tOday.
The story brought by way of Havana few
DAYS ago, to the effect that Salnave had de-
clared himself Dictator, and invited the ex-Em-
peror Soulouque TO resume the rens of power,
proves, happily for Hayti, to be unfounded.
The melancholy absurdities of the mock Empire
are not to be repeated; the Republic is not 10
be overthrown; and Salnaye, whom the people
are hailing as "the Garbaldi of Hayti,' and
the "deyerer of his people will probably be-
quietly chosen President by the popular voice.
Ii is understood that he refuses to accept the
appointment to this Office which the Senate
has offered him, declaring that as he owes
his present position Protector to popular
revolution he can only take permanent dlrec-
ton of the affairs of the country i'll obedience
to the popular will There seems to he no
doubt that the feeling is almost unanimous IN
his favor, and the citizens of Port-au-P Prince
who illuminated their houses, decorated the
streets, and rent the air with acclamations
when he entered the capital, did but echo the
sentiments of almost the whole island. Sal
nave is said to be a man of progressive and
liberal ideas, and great energy of character,
and brilliant results are confidently expected
from his administration. 1t speaks well at all
events for the estimation in which he is held
by his countrymen that the revolution which
has placed him in power has been attended
with 30 little violence.
Soulouque will probably return to Hayti,
along with other exiles, but there is no pros
pect of his taking part in public affairs He
was only military adventurer, and not
great one either; but he played conspicuous
part in West Indian history, with his prepos-
ferrous retinue of princes, dukes, and cheva-
liers and his restoration to power would have
been public misfortune He tried to form
himself after the model of Napoleon l., but he
succeeded only in copying the despotic will,
the selfish ambition, and the parvenu pomps
of the French Emperor, and in covering his
country with ridicule. The return of the bur
lesque Bonaparte from Curacao will not be
second return from Elba. Nearly eighty years
of age, half paralyzed, without partisans, re-
membered with terror by the Haytians, and
with contempt by the rest of the world, there
is reason to hope that SoulOuque is now power
less for evil, and that Hayti will sustain no
appreciable check in her promising career by
the political crisis which sent Geffrard into
banishment

TIE TOUCHSTONE.

The ~ y. Times says:
Mr Grccley's strongest objection to the Philadelphia
Convention OF August last was that II allowed Rebels TO
take part ia politics"
If that Convention did "allow Rebels to
"take part in politics. then Mr.. Greeley either
did object or should have objected to it on
that ground for Rebel is an emmy of the
Government and has no right to voice in
directing that Government. If an honorable,
upright man, he should not asser, nor claim
any such night. But, if The Tines means
that Mr.. Greeley's strongest objection to
the Convention aforesaid was that it al
lowed those whO pere formerly Rebels to
take part in politics, then it is very vide of the
truth. Mr.. Greeley has no desire TO exclude
from voting or holding office any who are now
loyal lovers of the Union and of Impartial
Freedom, no matter what they were in the dead
past. On the contrary, he has for years been
reiteratng till his readers must have tired of 1t
that he would enfranchise, not dsfranchisc, to
insure the safety Of the Republic
Mr.. Greeley's strongest objection" to the
arm arm performance at Phadelphia-as
also to Mr. Johnson's "polcy n-was that ii
tended 10 put the loyal Blacks of the South
under the feet Of the largely di,loyaI Whites
Practically and essentially, it allowed the
Blacks of the South just such rights as the
Whtes-most of them fresh from active COM
plicity in Rebellion based on Caste and
Slavery-should see fit to accord them. And
the constitutions framed or modified under Mr.
JOhnson's provisional governments were, without
exception, based on the Dred Scott axiom that
Blacks have no rights which Whites are bound
to respect. 1t was this grave fact-as, surely,
The Times ought to know-that melted our
intense hostility to that Philadelphia move
ment, wherein the Editor of The Times was so
conspicuous The Reconstruction shadowed
forth at Philadelphia was based on the old
dodge" of reconciling and harmonizing the
Whites at the expense, by the sacrifice, of the
Blacks. Mr.. Greeley is, has been, will be ad-
verse to that sort of reconciliation Perfect
constitutional and legal recognition and guar
anty of the Equal Rights of All Men is his
corner stone of Reconstruction. Whoever ac-
cepts that, according to his view, if once a
Rebel, is a Rebel no longer, but q welcome CO.
New-York tribune., 1867-06-01

John Stuart Mill on the Goth of May made
a powerful speech in the House Of Commons
In favor of female suffrage. The replies to his
speech were more jocular than serious, and by
no means calculated to lessen the impression
which the address will undoubtedly produce
among thinking men, Among those who sup
ported the amendment was Sir G. Bowyer, the
ablest among the Roman Catholic members of
the House. AS far as known, this is the first
notable conversion to the cause of female suf
frage from the ranks of the Catholic" party
1t was, of course, not expected that the amend
ment would receive a majority, but the large
number of votes which were cast for it C73)
must be gratifying to all friends of the cause
