Presidents Message.

The annual message of the President of
the United States, was delivered to Congress
on Monday last The length of the message
precludes its publication in the Telegraph,
unless to the exclusion Of other read
ing matter. An abstract Of the leading feat
ures of the message, may prehaps appear in
this paper next week. large share of
Of the message, is devoted to the recon-
struction issue, in which the President is in
direct conflict with Congress. His arguments
coutain nothing new, but are the hAnie ne
has repeated over and over again heretofore.
The President advises Congress- to repeal
the reconstruction act and accept ''my pol
icy.p The message ignores the fact, that
there is any difference between a rebel aud
ia loyal man, or the right of a rebel state,
to be represented in congress on the same
footing as loyal state.
The message is severe on negro suffrage,
and discourses at great length on the impol-
icy and the danger of putting the ballot
into the the hands Of the colored meu. 1t
is argued THAT negro suffrage will give ne
gro supremacy to the south. dow this is
necessarily to follow, is not made clear. In
the ten States which declared themselves
out of the Union, the colored population in
the aggregate hardly reaches one-third the
white population. The President draws a
melancholy picture Of negro rule in this
country. If thirty millions Of white people
are in danger Of being over-ruled by four
million colored, then certainly the country
| is in sad way, The other leading points
in the message will be noticed hereafter
Our limits this week do not admit of further
remarks

UNION Pacific RAILROAD, The progress
made in the construction of this road, is
one Of the most wonderful in the history of
railroad enterprises. The road is now COM
'pIeted to the base of the Rocky Mountains,
and the work is being pushed into those
mountainous regions, once supposed almost
impossible barriers between the two great
oceans. Cheyenne, the present western
terminus of the road, is 517 miles west OF
Omaha. The distance from Chicago to
Omaha, is 400 miles, so that the road is
now extended 917 miles west of Lake Mich
igan. Probably more than one-half of the
adult population Of Kenosha County, well
remember what great achievement it was
regarded, when the western shore of Lake
Michigan as first connected with the east,
by railroad That event has long ceased to
be a matter of interest Since then, the
States of Wisconsin,, Illinois, Iowa and Mis-
souri,, have been traversed in all directions
by railroads Just now, the extension of a
railroad to the Rocky Mountains, excites
the wonder and admiration of the country
At no distant period the entire continent
from the Atlantic to the Pacific, will be
spanned with one continuous iron track
When that achievement shall have been ac-
complished, and the event celebrated, it
would seem that railroad wonders, on the
North American Continent will be at end
The most gigantic of all possible railroad
enterprises, will have been consummated.

WATCHES

WATCHERS
The true value of Machinery applied to Watch
making is not that by its Watches are made rap
idly, but that they are made correctly Very few
people know why Watham Watch should be su.
perlor to any other. In the first place. at Walham
the Watch is regarded as only machine, to be con-
sLructed like any other machine on mechanical
principles. If the watches are good It is because
the machinery is good, OF course there must be
no defect in the principles plan of the movement
no mlstnke IN the sizes shapes Of the pieces of
which it is composed-nothng wanting in their
properties, and no error in their positions. These
points once thoroughly settled, it rests wholly with
the machinery, CONSTRUCTED with infinite diversity
of form and purpose, expressly for the purpose to
produce the finished pieces. By means of multiply
ing guages and microscopes, tests and inspection
for the detection of in the cutting tools and
for faults and flaws in steel stone, are made to
accompany the work in every stage from beginning
to end. AS necessary result, the watch goes to-
gether perfect machine. Every part is found to
fit properly in its place. Every pin may be pushed
till it pinches, and every screw turned home In
stead OF sluggish and feeble a.. .on the balance
even under The pressure of the hghtest handspring
vibrates with wide and free motion, and the beat
has the clear ringing sound always characters tic Of
the Waltham Watch. The machine is time-keeper
from the start.
This system of matchmaking is unknown in for
eign countries, and is entirely original with the
Weltham Company The Company claim that by it
they produce watches that cannot be equalled for
every quality that makes watch valuable. Simple
In plan and correct in principle, the movement is
not only beautifully finished, substantial accurate
and cheap, butts uniform in the minutest details
not easily damaged, and when repaired always as
good as new. There are different grades of finish
in the different varieties of watches made by the
Watham Company, as there are different sizes and
shapes to suit all tastes and MEANS but every watch
that bears the genuine trademark of s'WALTHAM''
is guaranteed to be good one, and nobody need
be afraid so buy it.
