WATCHES.
WALTHAM
w atCheS :

THE extensive use of these watches for the
last fifteen years by Railway Conductors, En-
gineeEs and ExpTessmen-the most e~xacting of
watch wearers--has thoroughly demonstrated
the strek 9Th, steadiness, durability and aecu.
Taey of the Waltham Watch. To satisfy that
class in all these respects, is TO decide the ques-
ton as to the real value of these time-keepers.
More than o O. of these watches are now
speaking for themselves in the pockets of the
people-a proof and a guarantee OF their supe-
riority over all others.
The superior organization and great extentof
the Company's Works at Waltham, enable
them to produce the watches at q price which
renders competition futile, and those who buy
any other watch, merely pay from 3 to so per
cent. more for their watches is necessary.
We are now selling Waltham watches at less
prices in ~greenbseks, than the gold prices be-
fore the war. There is no other manufacture
of any kind in the United States Of which this
can be said.
These time pieces combine every improve
ment that a long experience has proved Of real
~ractieal use. Having had the refusal 70
nearly every invention in matchmaking or
ginating in this country, or in Europe, only
those were finally adopted which severe testing
by tine most skiliful artisans IN our works, and
long uss on the part Of The public, demonstrated
to be essential TO correct and enduring time-
keeping.
Among the many improvements we would
p~artieularize
The invention aud use OF q center-pinion Of
peculiar construction, 10 prevent damage to
the train by the breakage of m~ain-spriDgs, Is
original with the American Watch Company,
who having had the refusal OF all other cons
rivances, adopted Fogg's Patent Pinion as be-
ing The best and faultless.
Hardened aud tempered hair-springs, now
universally admitted by Watehmakers to be
the best, are used In all grades Of Waltham
Watches.
All Waltnam Watches have dust-proof caps,
protecting the movement from dust. and les
senlng the necessity Of the frequent cleaning
necessary IN other watches.
Our new patent stena-winder, or keyless
watch, is already a decided success. and q great
ina owe ON any stem-winding watch in
the American market, and by far the cheapest
watch Of its quality now offered to the public,
To prevent Imposition, buyers should inva-
riabIy demand q certificate OF genuineness. No
watches retailed by the Company.

The water may be said to be on a stand
at this point. and by tomorrow it will
be falling. This is the best news we
could send TO our many readers along
the river below, and we hope that the
danger which we have just escaped may
be the last one of the season. Indeed,
we think from the news which reaches
US that the June rise will be a light one.
It is found that the mountain boats will
have trouble in reaching their destina-
tiop, owing to low in the Missouri.
The latest news from above will found in
our Gelegraphic columns. The Arkansas
and White rivers are rising, and both
streams are high, the latter particularly
SO. We give bslOw the latest mail news
from sll P 'ints.
The Louisville Courier Of the 1st says:
"The river is still falling at this point,
but at 8 diminished rate OF speed. Since
our last report the river mas fallen 3 inch
es, with 2 feet 9 inches water in the Ca
nal, 8 feet 8 inches water in the chute,
and 4 feet 9 inches water on the rocks
last evening. A rise js reported at Pitts
burg, which, together with the recent
rains, will give US q fair stage nf water.
The Cincinnati Commercial of same
date says "Here the river has fallen q
inches during the 81 hours ending last
night, with % feet 2 inches in the cham
mel at 6 p.m."

cause it was not the will cf Him who
sees The end from the beginning, that 1t
should prosper.
Our brethren OF the North, and our
local Radicals, continue to cast In our
faces this epithet OF "rebel." We hear
of "Tebel" churches, rebel" schools,
" rebel " clergy ymen, "rebel teachers,
q rebel - Legislatures, "rebel" newspa-
pers, "rebel - lawyers. "rebel " judges,
nrebel - men and "rebeln women, ard
in fact there is no end to the use Of the
word. Every man, aud every women,
and every child who is not Radical,
and who does not pin his or her faith to
the teachings of our + 1dical doctors, Is
an unreeOnstructed, unwashed, and un-
psrdonable "Tebel." Well, it is one
comfort that sill such are in most excel
lent company, for this class forms more
than zine -teuths of ell the white inhab
itants of the Southern States. Our
brethren OF the "loyRlist " party cannot
forgive the firmnsss with which the
rebels maintain their principles. No
sacrifice Of high position and great
hOnors is to them q proof OF sincerity
and unselishness. The greater the
s2crifice-the more eminent the
" rebel" the more heinous the
offense, and the more objectionable
the crime. The fact that almost all
the members Of the legal profess
sion in the South cast in their for
tunes with the attempt to establish q sep
srate government, does not make these
rash and thoughiless men hesitate, does
not lead them to doubt the correctness of
their own action, but is to them oonelu-
sive proof that the attempt to revolu-
tionizs was criminal attempt, and they
dare, even at this late day, to reproach
and to rebuke characters Of most exalted
worth who were identified with the
Southern cause.
We think it is high time this insulting
practice should cease. The only effect it
has had, and the only effect it will con-
tinue to have, is te widen The breach and
intensity the hatred which now unfOrtu-
nately exists towards those who cast this
epithet at cur people. Give Us eaee in this
matter. We are tired of the vulgarity
and the unmesniDgness OF this seEseless
word. Let it henceforth be discarded
at all events among educated men and
among persons having some pretensions
to decency Of manners.
