TEST THEIR TRUTH.-This is not an age
h people believe on trust whatever they
see in che public journals. Fifty or sixty
wears ago when the accuracy OF a statement
that had appeared in one OF the g~azettes or
~ News Letters" OF the day, was questioned,
1t was considered a sufficient answer TO all
eaviI to say, " II must be so, for / read II in
the newspapers" II Is not so now. News
paper assertions must be verified before they
are taken for granted, and this is especially
the case as regards statements setting forth
the remedial properties OF proprietary med
tonic and Alternative properties OF Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters had been deliberately and
thoroughly tested by thousands. n found
to be IN perfect accord with the printed
claims put forth in its behalf, that IL was ac-
cepted by the public at large as a STANDARD
REMEDY. But when multitudes who had re-
sorted 10 It as a safeguard against maiarious
feYers, a cure for Indigestion and bilious
ness, a means of strengthening the frame,
cheering the spirits and imparting constitu-
tiOnal vigOr, came forward and testified that
its beneficial effects had exceeded their most
sanguine expectations, Of ooHrse the world be-
lieVed. To resist such proofs was impossi-
BILE. Great care has been taken from the be-
ginning not to 0terSfdte the merits OF the
Bitters. Exaggeration and bOmbast have
been the death of many preparations that
might otherwise nave survived. They were
weighed in the balance and want
ing" Hottetter's Bitters, on the contrary,
have never been in ~grandilo-
quent langnag as a cure for every bodily i'll,
but simply as a pure harmless Vegetable spe-
cihe, possessing remarkable ~inYtgorating,
regulating, anti bilious and antisepttc prop
critics. This is exactly what the public know
the medicine 10 be. n its enormous sales
is an argument in its favor.

Rs-The extensive use OF these Watches for
the last fifteen years by Railway conductors,
Engineers and Expressmen, the most exact
ing OfWatch-wearers, has thoroughly demon
strated the strength, ~SteadtneSs, Durability
and accuracy Of the Waitham Watch. To
satisfy that class in all these respects, is to
decide the question as 10 the real value OF
More than of these
Watches are now speaking for themselves IN
the pockets of the people, proof and a
guarantee oftheir superiority over ali others.
The superior organization and great extent
of the COmpany's Works at Waltham, enable
them to produce watches at d price which
renders competition futile, and those whO
so per cent. more for their watches than is
necessary.
We are now selling Wa1tham Watches at
less prices in g~reenbacks than the gold prices
before the war. There Is ne other manufac-
ture Ofany kind in the United States of which
this can be said.
These time-pfeces combine every improve
ment that a long experience has proved OF
real practical use. Having had the refusal
Of nearly every invention in matchmaking
originating in IL country or IN EUROPE,
only those were finally adopted which severe
testing by the most skiliful artisans in our
works and long useO n the part OF the public,
demonstrated TO be essential to correct and
enduring time-keeping.
Among the many improvements we would
p~articularize;
The invention and use of eentre-piniOn of
peculiar construction, to prevent damage TO
the train by the breakage of main springs. Is
original with the American Watch Company,

t~rivanees, adopted FOgg's Patent pinion as

Hardened and tempered hair pring now
universally admitted by watchmakers TO be

Watches.
All Waltham Watches have dust-prOOi
caps, protecting the movement from dust
and leSSening the necessity Of the frequent
cleaning necessary in other watches
Our new patent stem-Winder, or keyleSs
watch, is already q decided success and a
great Improvement on any tem-windlng
watch in the American market, and by TAR
the cheapest watch of its quality now offered
TO the public To those living in portions OF
the United States where watchmakerS do not
abound, watches with the aforementioned
Improvements, which tend to insure accura-
cy, cleanliness, durability and convenience,
must prove invaluable.

The Democratic County Convention.

The Democratic County Convention.
The Democratic County Convention,
which met yesterday at Hartlein's s
Grocery, was not SO numerously at
tended as we expected. not moro than
FIVE hundred persons being on the
ground, and hardly half of that num-
Der taking part in the proceedings.
The ticket nominated, as a whole,
has no special features to strengthen
or recommend is to the suffrages Of
the people, aud there was much 10
the proceedings of the Convention
and the elements which compose the
ticket to weaken it within the party.
Certainly it offsrs few attractions to
entrap Republican votes, as was orig
inally designed BY some Of the crafty
leaders.
The nomination of Judge 'Parrett
has been from the first foregone con-
olusion, aud we are free to say that it
is gratifying to know that the Democ-
racy have selected oae so we'll fitted
for the position to head the county
ticket. The nomination of Mr.. Rch-
ardson for Prosecuting Attorney was
a signal defeat cf Van Riper's candi-
date. Mann, tho young Boston law
yer.
The candidates for Representatives,
were hardly selected on account of
personal popularity or party strength.
Weaker men could hardly have been
chosen. They are both without any
legislative experience.
The better class of the Convention
were largely for Mr. Ferry for Sheriff,
but the old party hacks and the
"roughs" were all for Mr.. Miller. and
their numbers and impudence gave
them a signal triumph.
The defeat Of ] Ohm G4visk, one of
our oldest citizens, and Democrat
of thirty years faithful service, added
to the slaughter of Ferry, for Sheriff
and Howaou. For Commissioner, left
the ticket without single Irish rep
resentative, and occasioned loud and
bitter murmurs from that nationality
whence so much of the strength OF the
party in this county has come.
TIE three Commissioners are very
poorly fitted by business experience
for the important duties of levyinl
the county taxes AMI dsbursing the
large amount of money which passe;
through the County Treasury. The
Office demands the very best busines;
talent and sound judgment in th'
community.
Certainly the work Of the Democ
raey yesterday, has produced nothing
to discourage Republicans in theil
