A M ERICAN
WALTHAM WATCHES.

We claim and are prepared to prove that the
American Watches manufactured at Waltham.
Massachusetts, are not only equal. but far supe-
rior, to the watches of England, Switzerland and
France. We also, claim that they are CHEAPER.
MORE ACCURATE, MORE DURABLE, and
more essily kept in order and repaired than any
other watches in the market.
Because in each one OF the very numerous parts
of which II watch is made up, we attain, by me-
ehanical power, nearly northumberland pre-.
cision and uniformity, making every watch Of ans
one style II true copy of its model.
This similarity in structure reduces the cost OF
productions it secures uniformity IN results; it
perpetuates and tyirai6ly dhIrses any excellence
that may be once achieved, and makes Il Easy to
repair any injury sustained, or replace any part
that may be lost or destroyed.
In addition to these mechanical advantages, our
Watches are Simpler in structure, and therefore
stronger, and less likely to be Injured THAI foreign
watches.
How they run under the hardest trial watches
can have, is shown by the following letters.
PENNSYLVANIA RAILROAD COMPANY.
OFFICE OF THE GENERAL SUPERINTENDENT
ALTOONA, PA, 18th December, 1866.
Gentlemen: The watches manu- lactured by you
have been in use on this railroad for several years
by our enginemen, to whom we furnish watches
as part Of our equipment. There are now some
three hundred Of them carried on our line, and
we consider them good and reliable time keepers.
Indeed, l have great satisfaction in saying your
watches give us less trouble, and have worn and
do wear much longer without repairs than any
watches we have ever had in use ON this road. AS
you are aware, we formerly trusted TO those of
English manufacture, OF acknowledged good rep.
%utation, but as a class they never kepttime as cor
rectly, nor have they done as good service, as
yours,
In these statements l am sustained by my pre-
decessor, Mr.. Lewis, whose experience extended
over q series of years. Respectfully,

Power OF HUMBUG.-An individual
owned small tavern near the field of
Waterloo, the scene of the last great ac-
ton of Napoleon, and was frequently ques-
tened whether he did not possess some
relics of the battle, and he as invariably
and honestly answered in the negative.
He was very poor, and one day, while
lameniing TO neighbor not only on his
poverty, but the annoyance to which trav-
elers subjected him, his friend cut him
short with:
"Well, make him help the other. Make
some relics
But what can do?" inquired the
poor man.
"Te.l them that Napoleon or Wellington
entered your shop during the battle aud
sat in that chair"
Not long after an English tourist entered
the tavern and iuquiring for relics was told
the chair story. The next conner was told
that Wellington had taken drink and the
! Wellington tumbler was accordingly sold
The third eazed with breathless wonder

The fourth purchased the door posts be

Colon ONLY SKIN DEEP.--Among the
many natural curiosities exhibited in this
country during the past twenty years one
of the most remarkable was the negro who
was turning white. Much discussion was
aroused by this real or supposed phenom-
ena. Some believed, but most were skep-
tical and many averred that the discolor-
alton was either the work of art or disease.
The question was never finally settled, and
when the negro died the interest Of the
public died with him. But if the Norfolk
Day Book is to be believed this change Of
hue is not so rare phenomenon as was
pretended, nor is it due to anything but
regular physiological causes-all 10 the
course of nature. The Norfolk paper re-
ports that there are in that city dozen
negroes in various stages of this change of
color, one of whom, very old man, is
now completely white. The Day Book
says:
:" 1t takes many years for the change to
pass entirely over the person, and while 1t
is SO passing the subject presents the most
singular, and in many cases, revolving
spectacle imaginable. There is negro
man in this city, bearing the unmistakable
features of the African, whose body is
white and whose face is as black as lamp
black. There is woman whose face is
piebald, ard another who has commenced
to turn in this last case the first indica-
ton of change in complexion was given
by the appearance of white spot behind
one of her ears. There is another subject
in this city, whose face, hands and are
white, and whose body is black; the
change in this case has been very slow, he
having commenced to turn when boy. II
is a remarkable fact that 10 most cases oi
this kind the subjects bear on their phisi
ognomies all the features Of the full blood
ed African.
