STILL ASoTHER.-Since the nomination OF
Seymour and Blair the San Jose Patriot,
Santa Cruz Sentinel and Butte Record have
deserted the Democratic party and hoisted
the names of Grant and Colfax. Last week
the San Mateo Gazette followed suit, and
hoisted the full Union ticket, and said
Having been born and reared Democrat,
it is with no little reluctance that we find
ourself compelled to seek our affinity with o
party other than the Democratic party
When we consider, however, of what mate
rial the Democratic party is composed, and
who are its leaders and chief men, We can
say that it is with no reluctance that we part
company with them; but it is our regrets
that the once " glorious Democratic party"
has become parry of treason and rebellion,
and that the entire control of the party is in
the hands of unrepentant rebels and traitors.
The Democrats are constantly losing ground
in this campaign and November will witness
their Appomattox defeat.

GENTLEMEN have no hesitation in saying that
believe the great majority of locomotive engineers
have found by experience that WALrnAM WATCHES
ARE The MOST SATISFACTORY of any for their uses.
They run WITH THE GREATEST ACCURACY xso
sTEADINEss, notwithstanding tic rough riding of
an engine, and, as have NEVER KNOWN ONE TO
WEAR oUT, they must be durable. i hope to see
the time when railway companies will generally
adopt your watches and furnish them to all cngi
neers ami conductors. In MY opinion it w0uld
greatly tend to promote regularity and safety.

GENTLEMEN: The watches manufactured by YOU
