WALTHAM WATCHES.

Hs-The extensive use OF these Watches for
the last dfteen years by Railway Conductors,
Engineers and Expressmen, the most exact

and accuracy OF the WaItham Watch. To

Watches are now speaking for themselves in
the pockets Of the peOple-a proof and a
guarantee Oftheir superiority 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 co1n petitiOn futile, and those VINO
buy any other watch, merely pay nom . to
50 per cent. more for their watches than is
We are now selling Waltham Watches At
less prices in g~reenbacks than the gold prices

Of nearly every Invention in Matchmaking

Hardened and tempered hair springs, now

SLIPPING AND MINING.

The issue of Protection against Free Trade
must soon become, what for years it WAS, the
most prominent and absorbing among those
which divide the American People and array
them in cOntending parties. We welcome to
its discussion those who do not, equally with
those who do concur with us ia regarding Pro-
lection as our true National policy. We do
not even resent their supercilious dealing with
our arguments as those of a Ounce or
stipendary. We were long ago ia
milar with their Over-weening self-cOncet ;
we long since attained the charitable cOncu-
sion that it was founded in ignorance of the
facts and principles which underlie our cOnvic-
tions and we are no wise moved to indigna-
ton when The EUening Post intimates that
every Protectonst is necessarily rogue fat
tening on the plumber of the public, or a fool
incapable of seeing that two and two make
four. We might as reasonably object that a
mule is deficient in suavty, or n hornet in
amiability.
But there is another class of enemies of the
Protective policy whom we cannot respect, and
whom we can by effort barely treat with civil
ity. 1t is the class which deals treacherous
blows from behind the mask of neutrality or
under the Ialse pTeUense Vi Hullicicnce' iHoeo
are not manly foes. Even though they have
q Special Revenue Commissioner for their pat
tern and exemplar, they are not thereby Gle
waited to the rank of manly combatants. They
degrade controversy by juggle, and dishonor
what should be candid investigation by rank
hypocrisy.
The N. y. Times resumes the discussion re-.
specting Wheat thus disgineniOusly
"In discussing this subject, we beg THE TRIBUNE to
remember that we make between Protection and
Free Trade and hare made none"
Is that hueP What say you Free Traders

sons committed by Spanish authorities, we
should figure up q loss like that of battles we
should certainly open the eyes OF any who still
believe that a struggling people can be safely
left to the tender mcrces Of Il race Of tyrdnts
who take their warrant from anarchy at home
to wreak out murder and ruin elsewhere. We
can recall ten instances of absolute massacre
during the Cuban war, each sufficient to make
eXecrable any national cause appealing for
sympathy in its efforts for representation
Early in last year occurred the massacre al
Villaneuva Theatcr, where numerous body Of
Spanish volunteers, after waiting for the sig
nal of riot, rushed in and fired round after
round upon a crowd of theater- gaers Shortly
aftcrward occurred the affair OF the Louvre
saloon in Havana, when the same act was re-
peated upon a crowd of innocent persons At
the execution of the Cuban patriot Leon the
raging spirit of butchery was again manifested
by the Havana volunteers, and in every case
we have named the killed and wounded were
as numerous as in an ordinary Cuban battle.
More lately we have had instances of whole
sale shooting by the authorities Of Pinar and
Trinidad, no less than twelve or fifteen vic
tins having fallen at a time. The whip
ping to death and shooting of revOlted
or suspected negroes in the Sagua juris-
diction was far too extensive in its
ruflian cruelty to be forgotten. The trcach
erous assassination of Jiguani, where eighteen
or twenty citizens of Santiago, assured of safe
escort, were put to death; the execution lately
of sixty prisoners at CienfuegOs; the late hor-
rible master piece of Yalmaseda at Santiago;
and the assassinatiOns in Havana, Matanzas,
and elsewhere, consequent upon the death of
Castahon at Key West, are quite fresh in
recollection. We have not summed up in this
dreadful account the retail Of executions which
have taken place from time to time in every
town of Cuba where Spain has kept guard.
Senior Emilio CASTELAR, is an eloquent gentle
man, and we quote his generous language
with sense of refreshment after reading of
the performances of his more brutal country
men in Havana. Mr. Sumner is also an elo-
quent and an able man, not unendOwed with
caution or with firmness. and, we venture to
say, with human sympathy. But one thing we
must ask of these excellent and eloquent men
the recognition of state of facts IN Cuba
which is shameful and shocking, and past the
degree Of ordinary endurance. Mr. Sumner has
not yet treated consistently the humanitarian
aspect Of the Cuban problem. Senior Castelar,
is but sentimental reformer if he longer re-
fuses to pour the blaze of his rhetoric upon
the cnormities pcrpctratcd by the oppressOrs
of Cuba. We dare say that the Cubans have
retaliatcd, and will rctaliatc, in one way
or another, upon their tyrants; but it
is notorious that for what is most bar
barous, most bloody, most exciting to crime,
most conservative OF hate and desola-
ton, in the war of Cuba. Spain is cminently
responsible She has preferred to SOW murder;
it may yet be her lot to reap death

1t is understood that the new charter for this
city prepared under the auspices of the oppon-
ents of the Tammany Ring, is ready for sub
mission, and will be introduced into the Legis-
lature to-day. SO far as the provisions of the
proposed law have been made public, they ap-
pear TO be vastly preferable to those of the
defunct Swecny scheme, and honestly admin
istered might result in comparatively excel
lent management of city affairs. But in con-
sdering this bill, and all others relating to the
city, we hope our friends at Albany will re-
member that our most imperative need is purity
of elections. Give us that and thereunto all
things will be added )" deny us that and no
system of municipal government, however
we'll meant, can have good results. That pOr-
ton of the Democracy who desire to be known
as the Reformers profess to wish an honest
casting and counting of votes and so far we
arc with them. If the Tepeaters can be kept
from our ballot boxes, we shall be freed from
the domination of that INSCRIPTIONS Ring which
has made this city the prey of thieves, and
the formation of new Rings will become far
more difficult. In no way can the opponents of
| the Ring make so sure of its destruction, or of
public esteem as by occupying themselves with
this reform until they have made law that
will be an effective guard against frauds upon
| no ho1lof

II is very easy to understand why the pOliti-
cans in Office who govern the Dominion Of
Canada are opposed to the party of annexa-
ton, and continually represent that there is no
desire for such a change on the part OF the
people governed. 1t is an axiom as old as
human government that those in power object
to change-unless they are to profit by it. Sir
A. 4. Gait submitted to the Dominion P;nlia-
ment on the 4th inst. some correspondence be-
tween himself and Sir John Young. from which
it appears that opposition to annexation ranks
so high as q cardinal virtue that for its sake
other political failings may be condoned, and
past record not be an obstacle to the attain
ment of sovcreign's favors. Here is man
who has been more than suspected of advocating
severance of Canada from Great Britain. He is
to be quieted and Earl Granville intimates
that decoration is pOssible-the second grade
of the order of st. Michael and st. George.
Thereupon the knightly Gait claims absolution
by showing that he has joined the crusade
against annexation. Nor does he stop here !;
no undertakes to show that separation from
Great Britain may be means OF pre-
venting the more dreaded catastrophe. For he
fears that unless the notion OF independent ex-
istence be cultivated, the idea will become
"ingraned in the public mind, that falling
the connection with Great Britain, anncxa-
ton must ensue" And should it become so
" ingrainedn alas for the tuft-hunting officials
of Canada: the United States can offer them
no equivalent for such decorations as Sir John
Young hopes the explanatory Gait may wear
" in health and comfort for many year
