FILLED THE BnL.-CHARLEY SHAY's
Q%uincuplcxal troupe, gave their first en-
tertainment at the Opera House last eve
ming, and "illed the bill" beyond question .
Every performance was eXcellently well
executed, and brought rounds of applause
from the audience. The Chinese Jugglers
were very happy in the success of their
numerous performances, and the colOred
individuals never failed TO bring down the
house." The music was of the very best
we have heard for many a day and take it
all-in-all the QuincupleXal was a brilliant
success, deserving a much better house than
they had last evening. 1t is true, they
come here in the wake of numerous other
troupes and it might not be expected that
the last would be so well patronized as the
first, bat CHARLEY SHAY's troupe after once
seen and heard, never fails to draw a full
house, and we may expect the Opera House
to be crowded to-night.+

WALTHAM WATCHES.

We claim and are prepared to prove that tire
American Watches manufactured at waltham,
Massachusetts, are not only equal. but far supo-
rior, to the watches OF England, switzerland and
France. We also, claim that they are CHEAPER,
MORE ACCURATE, MORE DURABLE. and
more easily kept In order and repaired than any
other watches in the MARIE.
Because in each one of the very numerous parts
of which II watch is made up, we attain, by me-
chanical power. nearly a6solatemathematical pre-
ci>ion and uniformity, making every watch VI amy
one style II true copy OF it's model.
This similarity in structure rcduces the co,t ri
production; it secures uniformity 10 results. it
perpetuates and fahaRf6iy di0ttse, any exec Ience
that may be once achieved, and make, itcasy to
repair any injury sustained, or replace any part
that may bo lost or destroyed.
In addition to these mechanical advantages, our
Watches are simpler in structure, and therefore
stronger, n dless likely to be injured than foreign
watches.
How they run under ths hardest trial watches
can have, is shown by tho following letters:
PENNSYLVANIA RAILROADEOMPANY.
OFFICE OF THE GENERAL SUPERINTENDENT
ALTOONA, PA, 18th December, 1866.
Gentlemen: The watches manufactured 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 saving 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
utatlon, but as u 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.. whose experience extended
over u series of years. Respectfully,

Some two months since, in conversation
with Hub" Hoxie, that gentleman put Us
in possession Of some interesting facts in re.
gard to the rapid growth Of the town Of North
Platte-then the terminus Of the Union Pa.
cifc Road. From him We gathered the items
and wrote short piece under the same cap.
tion standing over this article, and which was
generally copied BY the press throughout the
country as a remarkable evidence of what
this country can do when it tries. Since
that time We have been regularly exchang
ing with paper from the " magic" city

little sheet full of ringing energy. The fol.
lowing article appears as the leader in its is
sue Of the 25th ult., and tears down, as the
reader will see. this suddenly built city in
much less time than was required for its con.
struction:
:" To THE FRoxr This Is the last issue
Of the Iade< At North Platte. Our city is
disappearing as If By some mighty feat Of
jugglery, and the busy scenes Of trade have

A traveller called very late for his break

Thompson, feeling that the food was not
quite up to the mark, made all sorts Of apol-
ogies around the eater. who worked away in
silence, never raising his head beyond the

Cheese Factories.

During the past fortnight we have visited
several of tie cheese factories in our region
and find them doing . growing business.
To show how leAven works, we have only TO
cite the case Of the Delaware Center factory,
which struggled along last year At very
moderate rate, but as soon as people got
their eyes open, they rushed in, and to-day
they a.e making nine cheese day, averag
ing something like sixty pounds a piece.
This seems to be the experience in differ.
ent places. Every farmer in every locality
seems 10 require an actual home test before
he will believe. At Bowen's Prairie Mr..
Ross is nov making FIVE cheese day, and
this is his 6rst year. The rapid progress in
that vicinity is attributed to the fact that the
country IS better settled up and people have
seen more Of the benefits Of daryinp. A,
Sand Spring We notice the completion ol
their manufacturing rooms, and . very fine
arrangement it is, having running water
superb hosting arrangements, and every.
thing as convenient as could well be made,
but getting late start the number of pat
rons though increasing is still limited. A,
Farley the entire buildings are complete and
they are running successfully. but We did not
learn the amount made per day.
To show the demand for cheese, We learn.
ed at Delaware Center that they had orders
for all fit for market: and We learn that one
house in Dubuque Amsded & Walker i.
selling for several factories out Of the State
besides for many dairies and factories in

Benito Juasez was born on the Isthmus Of
aged, when quite boy, to get some menial
CO. Here he learned to read, and manifest
ing great ardor for learning, his liberal
and sagacious employer, a wealthy merchant
Of Oaxaca, sent him to college, where he de-
voted himself with such asiduity and ambi.
tion that he soon became the first scholar in
the college, aud graduated with the highest
houors. Returning 10 Oaxaea he married
the daughter Of bis employer, and removing
TO the City of Mexico, commenced the prac.
tice Of Law, and soon secured large aud la.
cratiye business. After some years of great
professional success, he finally attained the
highest judicial position in the country be-
fore he had reached middle age. His after
career in public lite. into which he " as
drawn by events and not by his own will aud
ambition, is already known 10 our readers.
There is perhaps no Mexican of position
now in that country, who is better informed
in regard TO our political and judicial system
than Juarez. lie may not be equal in re-
sources, in sagaci'y, and general accom-
plishmenls, to Almontc-now in Paris-who
was also long resident in this country, and
served his time at mechanical trade in Gin.

from the fact of his being an Indian ofpure
blood that he must necessarily possess the
craft. cruelty, vindic,ivcness. aud savayery
which are generally attributed to the aboris-
inal race, will, we ,hink. on clearer view Of
his life and character. find nothing therein
to Justify their opinion. Ii deed, the history
Of Mexico does not support this idea Of the
aboriginal character. The best, most hon.

The New Game Of Martelle.

The agreeable game of Croquet
which during the last few summers
has become so fashionable q pastime
among rural pleasure-seekers. has led
to the invention of = new game called
"Martelle." which unites those pleas
urable conditions Of fresh air, grassy
lawns, agreeable exercises, and ami
mated contests of skill that character
ize Croquet. But it is in many re-
spects an improvement on Croquet,
which is sometimes tedious and mo-
notonous, Marteile being more varied
in its play than the former game, more
ingenious in its combinations, and
more rapid in its movements. The
players are kept continually on the
alert, which is not the case with Cro-
quet, and an interest is excited which
soon absorbs and fascinates the play
ers. The appointments are also very
elegant. A game Of Martellc, set up
on lawn with its gay guilons and
its brightly-painted center-piece, re-
SECTORS, and pins, present a very
charming aspect. OF course to the
interest Of the game is added the rel
ish OF out-of-doors, and, possibly the
strongest charms of all, the little
coquetries and gay fiirtations which
summer pastimes may innocently in
clude. To describe the game in full
is unnecessary. 1t confines some of
the attractive features Of billiards. ten
pins, and Croquet The player enters.
the game by playing his ball upon
pins. Ii he knocks down 4 pin he
makes five ii his ball falls into
''well'' lie looses five; if he fails to
hit pin the next player proceeds.
To force an opponents ball into 3.
''well' causes him to loose five; and
to knock down pin by playing upon
an opponents ball is to gain ten.
There are two parts-thc first called,
Making the Course" the other '.The
Eccentric Stage" In the latter the
player can not play upon pin direct
", but must cause an opponents ball
to hit It. These few illustrations
show that the game requires the same
study Of angles that billiards does.
The ccntcr-piece is circle. the re-
Electors arc ,ilip,ical, and the almost
infinite number Of angles which the
rebound from these surfaces afford
result in many surprisingly beautiful
geometrical lines. The title of "Thc
Queen of the Lawn" which has been
