The effect of the victories gained by
the Democracy, is sensibly felt in some
of the doings of Congress. For instance,
the defeat of the infamous impeach-
ment scheme, was undoubtedly secured
by the Democratic successes in the late
elections. Had the Radicals carried
their tickets, "the weakened, bow
backed and sunken-eyed" of their rep
resentatives in Congress, would have
been sufficiently stiffened as to the
knee-joints and the vertebr@, and gog-
gled as to the visual organs, to have vo-
ted for, instead of against, impeach-
ment. But their districts having voted
against their party, they quaked and
uuailed and could not see the point OF
the impeachers. Again, we see it sta
ted, that there is some talk, by leading
Radicals, of taxing Government bonds,
and there is a general hubbub in their
camp on the financial question. Be,
fore the late elections, there wasn't q
Radical in all the land that did not
scout the taxing of Government bonds
as rank "repudiatiOn." Thus have the
Democracy brought their enemies 'tc
their milk" On the negro question
alone, does Radicalism refuse to recede
Wilson, Kelley, all of the Radical lead
ers, tell us they will not yield an inch
of their ground on Negro Supremacy
Very well. The people, through the
Democratic party, will give them a.
mother lesson. Perhaps, they will learn
to respect the popular will after little
more of the same sort of instruction re-
ceived by them last fall.

AMERICAN
WALTHAM
WATCHES.

The true value of Machinery applied to Watch
making is not that by its use Watches are made
RAPIDLY, but that they are made correctly. Very
few people know why a Waltham Watch should
be superior to any other. In the first place, at
Waltham the Watch is regarded as only machine,
to be constructed like any other machine, on me-
chanical principles. If the watches are good, it
is because the machinery is good. 0fcourse there
must be no defect in the principle or plan OF the
movement-no mistake in the sizes or shapes OF
the pieces of which it is composed-nothing want
ing in their properties, and error in their posi-
tiCns These points once thoroughly settled 1t
rests wholly with the machinery, constructed with
infinite diversity of form and function expressly
for the purpose to produce the finished pieces.
By means of multiplying guages and microscopes,
tests and inspection for the detection OF wear III
the cutting TOOLS and for faults and flaws in steel
or stone are made to accompany the work in ev-
cry stage from beginning to end. As n necessary
result, the watch goes together perfect machine.
Every part is found to fit properly in its place.
Every pin may be pushed till it pinches, and ev-
cry screw turned home. Ins cad of a sluggish and
feeble action, the balance, under the pressure
of the lghtest handspring, vibrates with a wide
and free motion, and the beat has the clear ring
ing sound always characteristic of the Waltham
Watch. The machine is time-keeper from the
start
This system of watchmakingis is unknown in for
eign countries, and is entirely original with the
Waltham Company. The Company claim that by
it they produce watches that cannot be equalled
for every quality which makes watch valuable
Simple in plan and correct in principle, the move
ment is not only beautifully finished, substantial
accurate and cheap, but is uniform in the minu
test Details not easily damaged, and when re-
paired always as good as new There are differ
ent grades of finish in the different varieties o
watches made by the Waltham Company, al
there different sizes and shapes to suit all tastes
and means; but every Watch that bears the gen,
uine trademark of 'WALTHAM" is guaranteed tC
be good Que, and nobody need be afraid to buy

THENATIONAL RAILROAD--525 MILES
COMPLETED.

A few days ago it was announced
that $500 miles of the Union Pacific
Railroad had been completed west
from Omaha :" and the bare announce
ment was made the text for many in
teresting facts concerning the history
of this great national enterprise, and
the wonderful rapidity with which its
construction has been carried forward.
The public had hardly begun to appre-
ciate the fact that halfa thousand miles
of railroad had been built in two years
into and through what had been an
untenanted waste, before the telegraph
told of the celebration of the compile
ton of the 517th mile, and the public
welcome given to the locomotive by
the City of Cheyenne, which two
months before had no existence, but
which now numbers its inhabitants by
thousands. This fact was also proudly
commented upon as an illustration of
the restless vigor with which this Rail-
road was being built, but while the
people have been reading these con-
gratulatory paragraphs, the tracklay-
ers have kept steadily at work, and
the last bulletin announces the compile
ton of 525 miles. How much greater
distance will be accomplished before
this article shall be seen by our read
ers, we will not venture to predict.
The whole history of this Railroad
is wonderful. 1t has the advantage of
snch liberal national aid as was never
before given to any private undertake
ing; its officers and promoters are men
of national reputation and large finan-
ciaI experience the road is being built
under the largest railroad contract of
which we have any record; the securi-
ty offered it's bondholders exceeds that
of any other similar loan, as these
bonds constitute first mortgage upon
the entire road, while the Government
accepts a second lien as its own security
for advances the amount of its busi-
ness, when the through line shall be
completed, must of necessity be enor-
nous, and its local traffic and profits
upon the portion now in operation are
unprecedented. We are sure that the
further information concerning this
National Railroad which will be found
in another column, will be read with
especial interest.

Sharswood having been elected, our
prospective insuIar fellow citizens need
not fear that if they are annexed 10
Yankeedom, they will have to "incur
greenbacks. "They VIII gain the
right to send a delegate to Washing
ton, and to have political quarrrels." "
We are not sure that these are quite all
the rights that people acquire now-a-
days, by becoming American citizens
we insist upon it that the Inquirer,
being loyal paper, ought not to say
that they are. But are they not e.
nough, in themselves, to induce any
foreign people, to throw off their pre-
sent allegiance and unite their destiny
with ours? Why, the very fact OF be-
ing permitted to send delegate to
Congress, who may sit beneath the
drOppings of that humane philosopher
and magnificentpatriot Thad. Stevens,
should be sufficient inducement to "all
the world and the rest of mankind
to renounce their present governments
and swear fealty to the American Ea'
gle. Indeed, viewing the question in
all its aspects, we think the baquire1''
article is perfectly awful!

THERE appears to be some pros
pect of the removal of that miserable
scoundreI JOHN Pope, who now plays
the tyrant over the people of Georgia,
Alabama and Florida the same whom
General w. B. Franklin and General
John F. Reynolds declared they would
not believe on oath. The sooner his
official head drops off, the better.
p. S. Since the above was put in
type, we have received the welcome
news that Gen. Pope has been removed
and Gen. Meade appointed in his stead.
Gen. Ord has also been relieved, at his
own request, of the command of the
Mississippi district, and Gen. Mcdowell
appointed in his stead. We doubt not
that these changes are for the better.

THE WAY 1T GOES.

Not tithe of the extravaganza and
wastefulness of Congress, during the
past seven years, has ever been told.-
Could the American people look behind
the curtain and note the enormities
which they are made to bear, in order
to maintain a political ariStOcr0cy in
luxury and ease, they would cast the
burden from their backs, before the
dawning ofanother day. But the hid
eous features of "the yelled prophet
of Khorassan," :" are well concealed. We
do not see the horrible, bloOd-shOt eye,
the thick, leathery and pouched-out
lips, the purple, blOated cheeks, the
Iivid, corrugated forehead; we only,
occasionally, when one fhisattendants
in whiff of anger, disturbs the veil,
catch a glimpse of his red, rum blossom
ed nose. In other words, we, the peo-
pie, are not permitted to see the mon
strous schemes and wholesale frauds,
by which the revenues of the country,
our tures, are almost wholly absorbed,
except once in while, when Congress
man DAWES is forced to declare that
"more was stolen from the Treasury
in one year." under his own party's
administration, ethan was required to
carry on the government four years
under President Buchanan )" or, when
brother Greeley, in a fit of Indignation
at the "blOckheads" and "hoWling
Pharisees," las he styles the politicians
of his party lets the cat out of the bag,
though it be only to put it back again.
By the way, Horace has just lately been
permitting the feline extremities to
protrude from the Radical sack. The
claws are just visible:
"For two years, Mr.. Foster, of Con-
necticut, drew a salary of $4,000 and
$1,000 for a private secretary, when he
was, by the letter of the law, entitled
to no more than the salary of a Senator
of the United States. Mr.. Wade does
the same now. He draws the salary of
e-President, and is known as Acting
'Vice-President,' an office not recOgnlZ-
ed by the Constitution or any law OF
the United States. 1t is entirely a
brevet rank; the extra pay has been
attached to it since 1865 by courtesy,
and not by right and so on to the end
of the chapter.
"The Republican Congressional Com
mittee have had in their employ, as
Southern missionaries, for a year past,
large number of men paid as clerks and
officers of the House of Representatives.
Is there warrant of law for this? If
so, it would enlighten great many
anxious inquirers to point out just
where it is"
This is from an article published in
the ". Y. Tribune, a few days ago.
We refrain from comment, for our
purpose is merely to lay before the
people the evidence of Radical extrav-
agance and reckleSsness in the expendi-
ture of the public money, and to let
them judge for themselves as to the
remedy.

OUR BOOK TABLE.

THE GALAXY.-We have before us
the January number of this popular
monthly. The Galaxy" is the most
liberal, progressive and catholic of the
literary magazines. Without partak-
ing of the narrow partizanship which
makes the "Atlantic Monthly" detes-
table, the Galaxy" ventilates the
politics, as we'll as the literature, of the
day. We can read such articles as
that entitled 1.-THE Political Outlook, )"
in the number before us, with respect
for the writer, because his argument is
fair and liberal, though we conceive
him to be mistaken in his views. But
the Galaxy" has other and greater
attractions than it's articles on politics.
We find in the present number an eX
cellent tale by Henry James, Jr., en-
titled "The Story of a Masterpiece :"
"American and Foreign Thertaes," by
Oliver Logan; "My Spiritualistic EX-
periences, by r. rockingham; "The

by Mrs. Edwards, and last, but by no
means least, the lucubrations of the
