WALTHAM
w A II @ e s :.
The extensive use Of these watches for the last
fifteen years by Railway Conductors, Engineers
and Expressmen, the most exacting of watch
wearers has thoroughly demonstrated the strength,
steadiness, durability and accuracy of the Walt
ham Watch. To satisfy that class in all these
spects is to decide the question rs to the real
value of these time-kcepers.
Moro than 100000 Of these watches are now
speaking for themselves in the pockets of the poo
plea proof and a guarantee Of their superiority
over all others.
The superior organization and great extent of
The Company's works at Waltham, enables them
to produce watches at price renders competition
futile, and those who buy any other watch merely
pay from % to 80 per cent more for their watches
than is necessary.
These time pieces combine every improvement
that long experience has proved Of real practical
use Having had the refusal of nearly every in
venton in matchmaking originating in this coun-
try or in Europe only those were finally adopted
which severe testing by the most skllful artisans
in our works, and long use on the part of the pub
lic demonstrated to be essential to correct and
enduring time-keeping.
Among the many improvements we would par
ticularize
The invention and use of a centre pinion Of De
culiar construction, to prevent damage to the
train by the breakage of main-springs, is original
with the American Watch Company, who, having
had the refusal of all other contrivances adopted
Foggs patent pinion as being the best and fault
less.
Hardened and tempered hair-springs now uni
versally admitted by Watchmakers to DO the best
are used in all grades of Waltham Watches
All Waltham Watches have dust-proof caps
protecting the movement from dust, and lessenng
the necessity of the frequent cleaning necessary
in other watches.
Our new patent stem wnder, or keyless watch
is already decided success, and a great improve
mont on any stem winding watch in the American
market and by far the cheapest watch of its quail
ty now offered to the public. To those living in
portions of the United States, where watcnmakers
DO not abound, watches with the above mentioned
improvements which tend to ensure accuracy
cleanliness, durability and convenience, must
prove invaluable.

the company are as follows:

A wnole County sinks in FLORIDA.

The Florida mails give meagre and vague
accounts of an astonishing phenomenon at
Apopka, Orange county, near Pilatka.
The whole county disappeared in one night,
and it's site is covered by great lake. A
correspondent, writing from the ncighbor-
hood to the Pilatka Herald, says:
Mr.. Alexander X. Foster has Just come
in with most marvellous aud startling re-
ports. lie says that on his way from Orlando
to MillOnville, after crossing Fort Nlctln
branch, he left the road to avoid the con-
stant begging to which he was subjected.
The safest place he thought would be on
the crown Of high BLACK: jack ridge, run
ming parallel with the road, which he ac-
cordingly took. After riding perhaps a
mile his horse commenced begging, and for
some distance it Was questionable whether
he could get through. lie, however,
re ichcd more solid footing. Again he
commenced begging. At this time he no.
ticcd remarkable and portcntous sounds in
his rear. The begging grew worse as he
proceeded, until he mad to dismoLnt. There
and his horse were begging. The
sounds i'll his rear Increased more and mol G.,
and became moro and more alarming and
the route i'll front more bogyy--he dare not
stop, Is this would have rendered it impos-
sible to have eXtricatcd binself-he neither
dare nor could look behind him, his whole
thought and aim was to reach terra tirma.
At last, after the most superhuman eXer-
tiOnS. both he and his horse exhausted to
the most extreme degree, he reached solid
ground. Turning 10 examine into the
cause Of those fearful sounds in his rear, he
saw the most terrific and appalling sights he

thing that attracted attention was that the
trees were moving-first gyratory motion
Of the top, then some sinking gradually out
Of sight, the tops revolving more and more
rapidly as they sunk and disappeared,
others following, and as they fell revolving
and describing arcs Of Il circle against the
sky. Then the whole earth, as far as the
eye could reach, sinking and its place sup
piled by i sea of waters, rushing, seething,
boiling with the noise of mighty cataracts,
and ever and anon casting to the surface
the roots, tops, or bodies OF mighty pines
and oaks. He concludes:
''People are rushing from the scene OF dis
aster. Cur camp is crowded with the ter
ror.stricken inhabitants from the country
in our rear. Everybody is waiting the fore
bodings and horrible expectations. They
believe the day Of judgment has come. The
extraordinary phenomenon appears more
and more extraordinary. The country
from two to three miles from here to Lake
Metlin is entirely submerged, and is now
one vast lake.
Nothing authoritative from beyond,
though rumOrs are rife that Orlando is
swallowed up and the whole chain of lakes
to Lake Conway are now united and form
an immense inland sea. We leave immedi-
ately and in terror for our own fate.
In haste, yours,

of the difficulty Of arriving at The condi-
ton of their debts, covered up as they
often are In railroad subsidy bills with

by official statements that the annual assess

for all this these people have absolutely
nothing to- show. The money has been
simply stolen and squandered. And what
is it that has made Virginia thus far a shin
