TIE SKY AN INDICATOR OF THE Wealth
ER.-The color of the sky at particular times
affords wonderful good guidance. Not only
does rosy sunset presage good weather, and
ruddy sunrise bad weather, but there are
other tints which speak with equal clearness
and accuracy. bright yellow sky in the
evening indicates wind; pale yellow, wet :;
a neutral gray color constitutes favorable
sign in the evening. and an unfavorable one
in the morning The clouds are again full
of meaning in themselves. If their forms
are soft, underlined, full and feathery, the
weather will be fine; if their edges are hard,
sharp and definite, it will be foul General
ly speaking, any deep, unusual hues betoken
wind and rain, while the more quiet and
delicate tints bespeak fair weather. These
are simple maxims, and yet not so simple
but that the British Board of Trade has
thought fit tn publish them for the use Of
sea-faring men, Scientific american.

REASON WHY THE
AMERICAN WATCH

Made at WALTHAN, MASSA CHUSETTS,
IS THE BEST.
1t is made on the best principle. Its frame is
composed of SOLID PLATES. Nor jar can in
terfere with the harmony of its working and no
sudden shock can damage its machinery. Every
piece is made and finished by machinery Gtself
famous for its novelty, as we'll as for its effective
ness) and is therefore properly made. The watch
is what all mechanism should INACCURATE,
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 are composed of several
hundred pieces, screwed and riveted together,
and require constant repairs to keep them i'll any
kind of order. All persons who have carried
"ancres' "lepines" and "English Patent Le-
vers," 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 a
thoroughly gooa low priced watch for the mill
ion, to take the place these foreign imposi-
tons; the refuse of foreign factories which were
entirely unsaleable at home and perfectly worth
less elsewhere.
low well we have accomplished this, may be
understood from the fact that SO 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-
partmcnt of our business is continued with in
creased facilities for perfect work. we at pre-
sent engaged in the manufacture of watches of
the very HIGHEST GRADE KNOWN TO
| CHRONOMETRY, unequaled by anything hither-
| to made by ourselves, and unsurpassed by any
| thing made in the world. For this purpose we
| have the amplest facilities. We have erected an
branch of our business, and have filled it with the
| best workmen in our service. New machines
| and appliances have been constructed which per.
| form their work with consummate delicacy and
| exactness. The choicest and most approved ma
terials only are used, and VIC challenge compari
son between this grade of work and the finest
| imported chronometers. We do not pretend tc
! sell our watches for LESS MONEY than foreign
watches, but we do assert without fear of contra
| diceion that for the SAME MONEY our product is
incomparably superior. All our watches, of what
ever grade, arc fully warranted, and this warran
tee 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 responsible dealers. All persons selling
countcrfeits will be prosecuted.

SENATOR CoNKLING AS PUGILIsT.-
The New York papers publish the following
Apropos of the pugilstic accomplishments
of Mr.. Conkling very good story is told.
Muscle is his mania, and his leisure hours are
passed with the dumb-bells, of which he
can put up great weight, OF the boxing
gloves, in the use of which he is quite an
adept. Being man several inches over six
feet in height, he is ara ugly customer to
tackle. While Dan Kerrigan was member
from Brooklyn, CeakEng saw fit to be quite
polite to him, but in a way that offended
KerrigaR, as Conkling always led converse
ton with him to sporting topics, and
though probably not intending to do so
conveyed the impression to the Brooklyn
member that the Utica representative thought
he Kerrigan) knew nothing of other mat
ters. One day Conklirg told Kerrigan he
should like to put on the gloves with him.
Dan said he was not much of boxer, and
besides he was too small a nam to contend
with Roscoe, but that friend of his was a
fair sparrer and would bring him to Conk-
lings room that evening if agreeable. The
appointment was made and Dan appeared
punctually, accompanied by friend nearly
as large as Conkling. The gloves were
speedily denned, and the sparring commenc-
ed Kerrigan occupying himself, the while,
in arranging in line on the table the ink
stand, paste bottle, glasses and other articles
of Congrcssman's table furniture. AS the
boxers spared about the room, Conkling
"got i'm several blows. light ones, but was
not struck until he reached a position in line
with the string of 'skuIch," arranged by
Kerrigan, when the stranger led out straight
hard blow on the Congressman's mob, which
sprawied him fat in the midst of Dams pre-
parations. Conkling rose rather " discour-
aged" like the cow when the locomotive
knocked her down the embankment, and his
opponent handsomely apologized, and ex-
pressed his surprise at succeeding in hitting
boxer so superior to himself Roscoe kept
his temper and a second time they went at
it. but again, when Conkiing reached the
proper position, he was laid on the table, p"
like a democratic bill in the house of Rep
resentatives. A third time the operation
was repeated, when the Congressman, dis
gulsed, laid aside the gloves and learned af-
forwards that Kcrrigan's friend was Ned
Price, the celebrated boxer.
