A Had Singer.

After the battle of Gettysburg religious
service was held in the field hospital, where
some thousands of wounded lay partially
protected by shelter tents. A Clergyman
from abroad made an excellent address and
then gave out the hymn Rock of Ages"
reciting as he did so a touching in
his last while his wife sang to him
the closing words of that most de-
votional of hymns. The "lead " in the
singing was taken by delegate of the
Christian Commission and his wife. They
sang eXecrably, horribly, gratingly-their
discord only broken by the groans of a
poor fellow who had just suffered amputa-
tion at the shoulder, and who, as these
memorable words died away and gave
place to a blessed silence, sighed out in
misery, 81 don't wonder that minister died,
if his wife sang as badly as that. 1t would
kill a well man ~ La e. -g5s.l.

Restoration of Valuable HistOri.
90 -- cal MSS.
The Philadelphia papers give an account
of some valuable State papers of Ireland,
which were stolen by the Chancellor of
James II. when he fled from Ireland, and
which, after many adventures, found their
wav, years ago, into the Philadelphia Lii
brary. The Evening Bulletin says:
The facts of this interesting case are
these: The manuscripts in question were
presented to the Library in 1899, but moth
ing of particular interest was known about
them, and their existence had been almost
forgotten. During the recent visit of Mr.
Hepworth Dixon TO this country, his at
tention was called to them by the Librarian.
and he suggested the idea that they had
probably been stolen by the Chancellor of
James III. The matter was Immediately
presented to the attention of the directors,
and they at once resolved to return the stolen
property to its rightful owners. A very
interesting correspondence with the British
Government ensued, resulting in the return
of the manuscripts, through Sir F. WA.
Bruce, the British Munster, who deemed
them of sufficient value to induce him to
forward them to his Government by spe-
cial messenger. The British Government
promptly acknowledged the handsome
course of the Library Company, and, as a
substantial testimonial of its gratitude for
the courteous restoration of most impor-
tant link in the history of Great Britain.
has transmitted to the Library Company a
magnificent series of State Documents. con-
sisting of l56 volumes, superbly bound in
I1evant morocco, being the entire set pub
lished under the direction of the present
distinguished Master of the Rolls, Lord
Romilly. Amongst other interesting works
are fac-similes of Magma Charta, Doomes-
day Books, and many other historic docu-
ments and records. a.-

Reorganization of the Austrian
Army.

Profiting from past misfortunes and fol-
lowing the example of France, the Austrian
Government has decreed reorganization
of the Imperial army. A letter dated
Vienna, April 30th, says: A
The innovations on the OLD system are
as follows: In future every officer must
have passed an examination with the eX-
ception of those who are promoted for dis
guished behavior in the field. Regimental
promotion up to the rank of Captain goes
by seniority in three cases out of four;
the fourth promotion is reserved for Of
ficers of superior merit. In a report of
Field Marshal the Archduke Albert, which
accompanies the decree, much stress is laid
upon the necessity of a better education of
officers generally, and it is stated that on
the occasions of the army being placed on
a war footing in 1854, 1859 and 1866 many
individuals had to be promoted from the
ranks who did not possess the necessary
qualifications for officers. To obyiate this
difficulty in future the civilians of better
class, who have been drilled, and have
served few months, according to the new
system of recruiting the army, if they can
pass the requisite examination, will in time
of war be called upon to do duty as subal-
tern officers. Il

The Success of tle Cretaus.

The news was received in London on
Friday from Athens which states that
two sanguinary battles have taken place
recently in Gambia, in both of which the
Turkish commander, OMAR PAsHA, was
badly beaten. His loss in both engage
ments is computed at three thousand.
The Great Powers of Europe have again
united in a petition to the Sublime Porte
to cede the island of Crete to the Greek
Government. -,.-.. g.
If this be true, it will end the war. Tur-

The Annual Tobacco Fair in Lou
isviIIe ON the 18th and 18th of
.Iune, IS87-S3, 500 i'm Cash Pre-
miumS.
We are glad to announce to the readers
of the Democrat that the tobacco fair, which
is to takeiplace in this city on Wednesday
and Thursday, the 18th and 18th of June
next, gives promise of being the most bril-
liant that has ever occurred in the United
States. 1t is eminently proper that Louis
vile, being the first tobacco market in the
world, should offer greater inducements
than other cities to extend the culture of
the valuable staple, and the premiums
which viii be bestowed at the approaching
fair entitle her to the proud pre-enlinence
which her immense trade and generous
hberality has won. r ,4-rL g14aD
The gentlemen who have been active in
securing to Louisville the advantages of the
fair have, in their solicitations for sub
scriptions, met with a most generous re-
sponse from the merchants, steamboat lines,
railroads and business men generally
There will be atenqp classes off, tobacco
with three premiums in each class. In
. manufacturing and cutting leaf the first
premium will be $500, the second pre-
MUM 5000 and the third 500, and other
classes in proportion. the entire amount of
cash premiums being $500. In subscrb-
ing to- the premium fund, merchants and
business men will not only be advancing a
leading interest of the city, but will find it
ostyaluable advertisement, as the names
and amount subscribed will be published
in ten thousand posters sent broadcast over
+. the State aud country. rg1 tTt1i-ov ar.- - L.
~ There has never been fair commenced
under more favorable auspices or that
promises more satisfactory results. 1t is to
be hoped that. all the papers published in
the State, and especially those published in
the tobacco producing sections, will give
B the subject ,promipence in their columns,
and as the time is close at hand, extra ex-
ertion will be necessary to arouse attention
and secure for the fair large attendance
and active mpetition.-Louisuille Demo-

So r..g-. A CARD FROM THE ~ ~ ~;
AMERICAN WATCH COMPANY
tH.vH0' ..sHW "a OF - irrrIs.E -t.f
45, .' 10 ID 4 gWALTHAM,, MASS. aas5

q This Company beg leave to inform the public
that they commenced operations in 1850, and their
fac ory now covers four of ground, and has
cost m ore than million dollars, and employs over
700 operatives They produce Is. 600 Watches q
year. and make and sell not less than half Of all
the Watches sold in the United States --
The difference between their manufacture and
the European, is briefly this: European Watches
are ma de almost entirely byhdnd. and the result is
of necessity lack of that uniformity whichi in
dispensable to correct time keeping. Both thee g
and the hand of the most skiIful operative must
vary. But it is fact that, except Watches of the
higher grades, European Watches are the product
of the cheapest labor of Switzerland and the result
is the worthless Ancres Lepines and so called Pat
ent Levers-which 500 cost more in attempted re-
pairs, til an their original price. Common sorkmen,
boys and women, buy the rough separate parts of
these hes from various factories, polish aud
put them together, and take them to the nearest
Watch merchant, who stamps and epgraves them
with any name or brand that may be ordered. O..
HOW AMER ICAN WATCHES ARE MADE.
The American Waltham Watch is made by no
such uncertain process-and by no such incompe-
tent workmen. All the Company's operations. from
the reception of the materials to the completion
of the Watcn, are carried on under one roof and
under one skillful and competent direction. But
the great distinguishing feature of their Watches
is the fact that their several parts all made by
the finest, the most perfect and delicate machinery
ever brought to the aid of human industry. Every
one of the more than humid ed parts of every
Watch is made by machine-that. infallibly re-
produces every succeeding part with the most un-
varying accuracy. 1t was only necessary to make
one perfect Watch of any particular style and then
to adjust the hundred machines necessary to re-
produce every part of that Watch. and it follows
that every succeeding Watch must be like it.
The Company respectfully submit their Watches
OF, their merits only. They claim i make ''.t /
a BETTER ARTICLE FOR THE MONEY
by their improved mechanical processes than can
be made under the old-fashioned handicraft sys-
tenn. They manufacture Watches of every grade,
from good low priced and substantial article, in
solid silver hunting cases. to the finest chronome
ter; and also ladies' Watches in plain gold or the
finest enameled and ieweled cases; but the indis-
pensable requisite of all their Watches is that they
shall be GOOD TIMEKEEPERS. 1t should be
remembered that except their single lowest grade
named Home Watch Company, Boston," ALL
WATCHES made by them H- ..ff atg
."ar To-. ARE FULLY WARRANTED T.. q.
by a special certificate, and this warrantee is
good at all times against the Company or its agents.

Stanton for President.

A telegram in our regular dispatches
deems it of sufficient Importance, or as SO
good a joke, to send us the fact that the
st. Louis Democrat, an ultra Radical organ,
is out for STANTON as its choice for Presi-
dent. 1t calls him ga statesman who has
been the military superior of all our Gen
erals" and mot less deserving than that OF
the ,brayest hero that ever slept on hard
fought field" In word it holds that none
but STANToN's self can be his parallel, and
glad are we that such is the fact. .fs

The impeachment of the Pre.i
dent.

-.----- ~ dent.
The Ne1 York Times, the ablest sheet Of
| its party, has denounced the attempt of its
party leaders to impeach President JOHN
son as becoming more and more con-
temptible:''
The impeachment business becomes more
and more contemplate. The committee
continues its laborS in search of charges
with desperation which failure daily rem
ders more apparent. Months ago the cry
/ went forth for the removal of the President
1 for offences which were imputed to him. -
Then evidence was sought in support of
these charges, and now the charges them
selves are abandoned. Else why this hunt
| ing for fresh ''crimes" and other grounds
of arraignment? If the indictment drawn
by Ashley and Butler were tenable, think
| you we should hear of the eager inquiry
for witnesses on matters not yet week
old? The latest story is that General
Burton, who took JEFF. Davis to Rich
mond, is to be examined, with the faint
hope of gathering succor from the talk of
] the ex-rebel chief. Mr.. Seward, too, is to
be examined on matters equally novel and
nonsensical. Altogether, the committee
| finds itself in a tight place-with strong
desire to impeaeh, but without proofs or
| even charges to warrant impeachment.
Some of its witnesses are represented as
having a6GempCeu 10 prove 100 Inucn, Gen
Baker being of the number. The whole
affair offends the public nostrils as nui
sance. nr7 .'- ss.
From other Radical sources we learn
that so fully committed to the plan of de-
posing President JOHNSON are the leaders
in Congress, that they insist that the July
session OF Congress shall be held, and that
many members of that party-JUDGE
SpALDINa, of Ohio. among the number =
who heretofore not only opposed but de-
