More than 5OO,00O Of these watches are now speak
ing for themselves in the pockets Of the peope-a proof
and guarantee Of their superiority over all others.
The superior organization and great extent of the
Company's Works at waltham enables them TO pro-
duce watches at price which renders competition flu

from IS to 80 per cent for their watches than is

those were finally adopted which severe testing by the
most skillful artisans in works, and long

Grand Gift Enterprise.

In placing before our readers the
grand gift enterprise inaugurated by the
Musical Society of Milwaukee, Wis, we
wish to recommend the merits of the
scheme to their careful consideration.
The originators of the enterprise are
widely and honorably known through
out the country, there being very few
musical organizations of equal merits in
the United States. Within the twenty
years of its existence, this Musical So
ciety has gained the universal esteem
and support Of Milwaukeeans as one of
their most prominent institutions. For
this reason the most widely known
business men Of that city, foremost
among whom is the Hon. ALEXANDER
MITCHELL, President of the Milwaukee
and st. Paul II. r., and Representative
in Congress of the First District of
Wisconsin, have not only given their
Endorsement, but also ther active influ-
ence to this enterprise, which is to take
the last obstacle of the society's future
away, by ameliorating the state of its
financial affairs. The scheme so in
dorsed cannot but meet with confidence
and universal favor. Eighty Thousand
Dollars in greenbacks are to be distrib-
uted, among which there is one prize
OF 1000, and many others, amounting
to large sums. The tickets are sold at
81. Mr.. II. n. Hempsted, the we'll
known music dealer of Milwaukee, is
the general agent Of the enterprise.

The Western Reserve Historical
Society has printed the personal
Recollections of General George San
derson, of Lancaster, Ohio" who
died in that place on the 26th Of
August last, in the seventy.ffth
year of his age. In these "RecOIlec-
tions" the General says:
"My opinion Of General HulI's
conduct, formed at the time, (and
events since have not changed it
was, that General Hull was an i'm
beciIe-nOt a traitor or a coward,
but an imbecile, caused by the ex-
.cessive use of ardent spirits. He
was a constant, heavy drinker On
the day before the surrender, his
son, Captain Abraham F. Hull,
came among my men in a beastly
state of intoxication. On the day of
the surrender I saw General Hull
frequently. His face about the chin
and mouth was covered with tobacco
juice, and I thought, in common
with other officers, that the General
was under the influence Of liquor.
His personal appearance indicated
that he had been drinking. The
General was surrounded in camp
with military family, the MEM
ber5 Of which were fond Of high Iiv-
iug, wines, liquors, &c. know we
poor volunteers wondered how they
could keep such Iuxuries, but our
surgeon relieved my mind by in
forming me one day that HulI's Of
fcers drew all the liquors from the
hospital stores on continued COM
plants of illness. Hull's surgeon
