RIoHMoND, VA, October 1.-THE
Dispatch comes out this morning in a
brief article urging his election on
the ground that he is the Presidents

consequently, would be likely to
secure the speedy reconstruction of
the State. His brother and young

retary, have arrived in Richmond to
work for the election.

The extensive use Of these watches for the last
fifteen vears by Railway Conductors, Engineers,
and Expressnen, the most exaciing VI watch>
wearers, has thorougly demonstrated the strength
steadiness, durability and accuracy Of the Wal.
than Watch. To satisfy that class 10 all these
respects, is to decide the question as to the real
value Of these time keepers.
More than 400, 900 of these watches are now
speaking for themselves 10 the pockets Of the
people--a proof and guarantee of their superb
ority over all others.
The superior organization and great extent Of
the Company's Works at Waltham, enable them
to produce watches at a price which renders
competition futile and those who buy any other
watch, merely pay from rs to so per cent. more
for their watches than is necessary.
We are now selling waltbam Watches at less
prices in greeubacks, than the gold prices before
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 improvement
that long experience has proved of real practi.
cal use. Having had the refusal of nearly every
invention in matchmaking originating In this
country, or in Europe, only those were finally
adopted which severe testing by the most skill
full artisans in our works, and long use on the
part of the public, demonstrated to be essential
to correct and enduring time-keeping,
Among the many improvements we would
particularize
The invention and use Of a centrespinion of
peculiar construction, to prevent damage to the
train by the breakage Of main springs, is origi-
nal with the American Watch Company, who,
having bad the refusal Of all other contrivances,
adopted Foggs Patent pinion as being the best
and faultless.
Hardened and tempered hair,springs, now uni,
versally admitted by sWatchmakers to be the
best are used in all grades of WaltAam Watches.
All Waltham Watches have dust>proof caps
protecting the movement from dust, aud lessen>
ing the necessity of the frequent cleaning ueces-
sary in other watches.
Our new patent stem wi1der, or keyless watch
is already decided success and atimprove-
meut on any em>wiuding watch in the Ameri
eau market, and by far the cheapest watch of its
quality now offered to the public.
To CALIFoRNIANS- and other living in por-
tions of the United States where watch. makers
do not abound, watches with the above mention.
ed i'm improvements which tend to insure accuracy,
cleanliness, durability and convenience, must
prove Invaluable.
Every watch bearing the trade mark of Wal>
than is guaranteed to be a thoroughly reliable
timekeeper.
| To prevent i'm position, buyers should invari-
ably demand a certificate of genuineness.
The trade supplied by Messrs. r. B. Gray L
| Co., San Francisco. Cal, and generally for sale
al retail by all respectable dealers.

Butler called up his motion to reconsider

to add TO the House bill section requiring
the President TO return all nominations to
Congress within thirty days after being
made. Considerable sparring ensued, Gar

with the democrats on this measure, which
charge Logan refuted. After considerable
discussion back and forth in which a slight
passage at arms occurred between Butler aud
Bingham, Butler moved the previous ques-

democrats votiag in the negative, ciEcum-

made one hours speech n favor of concur
ring in the Senate amendment, arguing that
it was substantially a repeal of the law. The
debate was continued by Davis, Gar6elde,
Schenck. Blair and others, finally at Eve
o'clock the debates closed. The vote of re-
ference was reconsidered and the House re
fused to concur in the Senate amendment,
by ayes 70, noes 80. So the bill goes back
to the Senate as simple repeal of the law
