OFFICE OF THE GENERAL SUPERINTENDENT
ANroNA, Pa, Dec. Is, 1857
GENTLEMEN: The watches manufactured by you
have been in 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
TIMEKEEPERS. Indeed, have great satisfac-
tion in saying 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 reputation. but as a class
they never kept time as correctly, nor have they
done as good service yours.
In these statements am sustained BY nv pred.-
cessor, Mr.. Lewis, whose experience extends over
a series of years.
Respectfully,
EDWARD WILLIAMS,
General Superintendent.
American Watch Company, waltham.

curious and interesting and suggestive testi-
mony taken in connection with this late i'm

Hon. Ben Butler. 1t shows, among other things,
that wherever there is lobby job of any sort
on hand involving round sum of ready cash
there you may look for Thurlow Weed. He
seems to be getting worse and worse in this
business as he gets older, 80 that there is some
reason to fear that the last public service of his
eventful life will be that of witness testifying

MIR. stanton Makes His Exit.

Evidently possessed of some sensibility, for
the possession of which we never gave
him credit, Mr.. Stanton promptly retired
from the War Office last evening, after
the adjournment of the Court of I'M
peachment sine die had utterly destroyed
the last hopes of the impeachers. But be-
fore he left the now defunct Secretary of
War let fly his last parting shot at his great
adversary and victor. In a short note to the
President announcing that he had transferred
the contents of the War Department to General
Townsend, Mr.. Stanton gives as his reason for
80 doing that the resolution of the Senate ''of
the 2lst of February last, declaring that the
President has no power to remove the Sec
retary of War and designate any other officer
to perform the duties of that Office ad interim,
had ''failed to be supported by two-thirds Of
the Senate present and.voting on the articles
of impeachment presented against you" And
with this explanation Mr.. Stanton makes his
bow and retires from the public gaze. Acting
upon the principle that it is better to walk out
than to wait and be kicked out, the once
redoubtable monarch of the War Office took
time by the forelock and left and in leaving it
is doubtful it, outside of clique Of extreme
radicals, there will be found single man to
shed tear over his political death. Whatever
credit may be due to him for his administration
of the War Department during the rebellion
was long obscured, if not destroyed, by his
conduct as one of Mr.. Johnsons Cabinet minis

Political Agitation Renewed in Ireland.
The lull which was induced in Irish politics
by the visit Of the Prince and Princess of
Wales to the island has been disturbed, and
the kingdom Is again agitated by q sharp
political excitement, of which the old and
very poisonous element Of religious difference
forms . principal ingredient. By special cor
respondence from Great Britain wedearn that
Church disendowment, Fenianism, the land
question, threats Of assassination Of Pro-
testant rectors, with shouts Of loyalty and
cheers and municipal appreciation Of express

Impeachment Thrown to the Dogs-The
Republican Party.

hepuOucan Partys
Radicalism tried its fortune again yesterday.
Believing, perhaps, that events at Chicago had
drawn the party lines little closer, and that
all the denunciation ofparty organs and cliques
known as outside pressure had not been with
out effect, it ventured timidly to face another
vote. 1t called up the second article, and the
Senate voted that the President was not guilty.
II called up the third, and with the same result;
and then, demoralized, its knees gave way and
it supported motion to adjourn sine die.
There was apparently a struggle between the
men of the party who desire to act with honor
and those who only desire to succeed. These
last would have deferred the vote, to try II
again in June. The former would have hon
estly closed the case by acting on all the arti-
cles now. The final decision-the adjourn
ment sine die-while it secures practically the
result sought by the Senators who desired to
vote now, does not give to the result that
character of upright dignity that would have
distinguished action on all the articles. It is
especially worthy of note, however, that the
casting vote against the proposition to ad-
journ till June was given BY Chief Justice
Chase, who again stands prominently forward
as defeating the bad purposes Of the Butler
crew.
Impeachment is thus thrust from the public
sight-the radicals could not convict the Presi-
dent, but would not honestly acquit him. Find
ing that the Senate was not TO be moved-that
all their desperate clamor and threatenings
availed nothing TO force Senators TO voting 90
they desired-they yet used their unreasoning,
fanatical, corrupt and purchased majority to
cheat justice and to prevent the giving Of that
verdict which would condemn them % men
who had disturbed the peace Of the nation In
originating and prosecuting case that had no
other foundation than their partisan malignity.
Radicalism proper, with its atrocious dis
honesty, would have deferred the trial only till
another day, would have adopted any subter-
fuge, any cowardly ruse, and, rather than face
that open Judgment 1t has pretended 10
desire would have kept the nation In the fsr-
ment Of doubt, kept open all the DANGEROUS
possibtiaN Of Its revolutionary process,
kept this great fostering evil % Il Is rather
than forfeit the smallest chance to secure
verdict By the future intimidation or corruption
Of Senators. This was the purpose Of those
men, and the failure to accomplish IL must be
regarded % the defeat In the republican party
Of those extreme men.
It will prove no small victory II they have
been put down. They are the men who trined

try but with the vsey vitality Of the government

professors; nevertheless, they gave him
very fattering testimonials for his appli-
cation; only old Professor Hugo, tie
celebrated jurist, remarked that he Lad
never seen Bismarck at any Of his lee
lures. Bismarck had believed Hugos
lectures would be so crowded that it
would be safe for him to inscribs his
name as a regular hearer Of them, and
that his constant absence would not be
noticed. Unfortunately, however, the
old iurist had only three hearers, and
he'd noticed and felt greatly offended at
Bismarck's 5 nOn-attendanee.
Once, during his vacation time, Bis
marck had been at home, but what with
the black velvet coat which he wore, and
his blunt, student tone, he had met with
very little appreciation at the hands Of
his mother, who had counted to make a
diplomatist of him, ami who thought
that his conduct and appearance was by
no means in keeping with the career
which she had marked out for him.
In Berlin. too, whittier Bismarck re-
turned in the fall Of 1888, he still found
the free and easy student life by far too
sweet to bid farewell to it. 1t was not
until the State examination drew nigh,
like threatening specter, that he con-
sented to visit, for the first time in his
life, the lecture of one of his professors.
He went there, also, a second and last
time, and saw very clearly that even IN
the lectures Of the illustriOUs Savigny he
could not learn in thgshort time still re-
mining to him as much law as he needed
in order to pass the State examination.
So, after these two visits to the lectures
of his professors, he never returned to
them. Bat his indefatigable industry,
great natural ability, and the assistance
Of clever private tutor, enabled him to
pass the State examination quite credit
ably at the appointed time.
During his student life in Berlin Bis

Letter From Bishop Eastbusn.

A circular letter TO the clergy and
congregations of the Protestant Episeo
pal Church in the Diocese Of Massaehu-
sets. has been issued by Bishop Manton
Eastburn, enjoining them to- discard in
novatious upon their ancient and set
tied order Of public worship. Fhe
pastoral letter on this subject put forth
5v the House of Bishops at the close Of
the late General Convention, and the
resolutions of that body against any
change in the order Of service until the
next General Convention shall decide
upon the matter, are quoted to enforce
the appeal which he makes that sim
plicity Of worship shall be maintained
and innovations and novelties rejected.
What these latter are he thus specifies :;
The placing of lights upon the e6f
munion table except for the puryf in
