in war they had borne it uncomplainingly
so in peace they endure it with hardly a

A CARD FROM THE

This Company beg leave 10 inform the public that
they commenced operations in $780, and their factory
covers four acres of ground, and has cost more
than million dollars and employs over 200 operas

make and sell not less than one half of all the
watches sold in the United States.
The difference between their manu- acture and the
European, is briefly this European watches are
necessity lack of that uniformity, which is inds-
pensable to correct time keeping Both the eye and
the hand the most skiful operative must vary
But it is ia ct, 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 Patent Lev
eu-which soon cost more IN attempted repsirs than
their original price. Common workmer, boys ana
women buy the rough separate parts of these watch
es from various factories polish and put them together
and take them to the nearest watch merchant who
stamps and eugraves them with any name or brand
that may be ordered.
How American Watches are Made.

watch, are carried under one roof and under one
skinful and competent direction But the great dis
tingushng feature of their watches is the fact
their several parts are ali made by the finest, the
most perfect and delicate machinery ever brought 10
the aid of human industry. Every one OF the moe

must be like it.
The Company respectfully submit their watches on
their merits only. They claim to make

Flag Mil


We understand that gentleman was in this
city few'days since, who made arrangements
for the erection of fax mill with all the re-
quisite machinery for working up flax straw
A number of our farmers in the vicinity of
the city have gone quite extensively into the
cultivation of fax for the seed alone, and find
it profitable. The erection Of a fax mill here
that will utilize the straw, will add largely to
the profit of the crop, and will no doubt
greatly stimulate its cultivation. We under
stand the mill will be in operation in time to
work up all the fax straw ofthe present grow
ing crop. We know this will be a gratifying
announcement TO those Of our farmers who
nave flax growing. Success to the new enter
prise say we. Thus one after another, facto
ries are springing up in our midst each one ad.

We notice that Miss BRITAIN, the worthy
and accomplished Principal of this Institution
has already issued her circulars for the coming
school year, which opens. on the first Wednes-
day of September next. We are happy to
learn that the coming year will open with
brighter prospects, and under happier auspices
than characterized the year past Twenty
boarding pupils, we understand, have already
been secured, That number we hope will be
doubled before the opening Of the Fall Term
Young ladies who wish to perfect themselves
in all the higher branches Of a liberal educa-
tion can find no better school for that purpose
no more pleasant location, than is offered at
Kemper Hall. Spacious grounds, the very
counterpart of the elysian fields sung of by
the poets, where the winds make low music
through the signing pines and the fragrant frs,
and the everlasting murmur of the waves on
the beach, lull to repose, or urge. the ambi-
tious and studious to explore the classic realms
of ancient and modern lore. Away from the
noise and the dust, and the distraction of the
city and outside influences, it is just such q
place as the careful and anxious parent would
choose for cherished and beloved daughter,
knowing that she would have all the care and
comforts of home combined with the facilities
for thorough and practical education.
