Still, great preparations are going on on
both sides, Notwithstanding official denials
to the contrary. France is buying arms

-AMERICAN
WALTHAM WATCHES.

We claim and are prepared to prove that the
American Watches manufactured at Waltham,
Massachusetts, are not only equal. but far supe-
rlor, to the watches of England Switzerland and
France We also, claim that they are CHEAPER,
MORE ACCURATE, MORE DURABLE, and
more easily keptln order aud repaired than any
other watches In the market
Becluse in each one of the very numerous parts
of which watch ls made up, we attain, by me-
chancal power, nearly dJsolU,smathematlcal pre-
ci,lonand uniformity, making every watch of any
one style true copy of lts model,
This similarity in structure reduces the cost Of
productions 1t secures uniformity in results; 1t
perpetuutes and inralli5iy dlfuses any excellence
that may be once achieved, and makes it easy to
repair any injury sustained, or replace any part
tbatmay 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 than foreign
watches.
How they run under the hardest trial watches
can have Is shown by the following letters:
PENNSYLVANIA RAILROAD COMPANY.
OFFICE or THE GENERAL SUPERINTENDENT
ALTOONA, PA, 18th December 1868. !
Gsansmen! The watches manufactured by you
have been In this railroad for several years
by our engincmen, 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, have great satisfaction IN saying youl
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 his rOal AZ
you are aware, we formerly trusted to those OF
English manufacture, OF acknowledged good rep.
utatOn but as u class they never Repttime cor.
rectly, nor have they done Us good service, as
yours. .. .-

Radical Meaune.s.

The New York Journal of Commerce is
showing up the meanness of allowing Rad
ical demagogues from Massachusetts, like
Senator Wilson, to make speeches at the
South, while such men as Governor Jenk-
ins, of Georgia, when he addresses the peo-
pie on the other side of the same question,
is met with military obstacle-in fact,
warned off by the military governor. The
Journal says: a9
This is not exactly free speech. On the
contrary, it is q very un-American sort OF
proceeding. What can be more ridiculous
than to style this state of things ''freedom''
i'm any sense of the word 1t is not even
probable that Northern politicians holding
views counter to those OF Senator Wilson
should go down to the South and address
the people. They would undoubtedly be
suppressed with summary proceedings.
The consequence of this is plain. The
Southern country is, by military power,
made free to only one class of politicians,
and the first great result of the military re-
construction bill is to launch on the poor
Southerners a flood of men advocating one
set of views, while their opponents are ex-
cluded by the military commanders. The
South is reconstructed into form of gov
ernment once detested by the good sense of
every American, and the, sad spectacle is
offered to the world of "free people" un-
der military power for the propagation of
one shade of principles, while it uses the
same power TO suppress the advocacy of
the other shade. "'".'' =.
1t would have been better taste for the
Wilson's, and men of that sort, when they
heard that Governor Jenkins was forbidden
to address the people on his side of the ques-
ton, to withdraw from their crusade and
decline to appear as advocates of liberty
which was confined to themselves only. 1t
should be mortifying TO such men to find
themselves placed in such ridiculous posi-
ton, position for which no one can have
any respect.
