When 1 frst became acquainted with
Winchester, I thought him the bandsom-
est man 1 ever saw. In addition to his
fine appearance, his manners were those
of a Chesterfield. He was prepossessing
and popular. In politics he was a strong
Democrats In religion he was skepticsi.
and might be called a non -believer-be
never attended church. Isaac Rawlings
was low in stature-nothing prepossessing
about him. BE had an impediment in bis
speech, but fine head and q verv intaI-
lectual eountenance. He was as strouRsn
old line Whig as Winchester was a Deno-
crst. They were good friends; had fre.
quent political controversies. but it nsvsr
interrupted their kind personal relations.
Unlike Winchester, the old man was verv
piously inelined-st thorough EpiscoDslis1
In sentiment. Old Parson Wright preached
the first Episcopal sermon ever delivered
in Memphis, and established the first Epis-
copalisn church. Isaac Rawlings took
CREST interest in 1t, contributed Hbersllv
to its support, and attended divineservice
at his church whenever his rheumatics
would admit. His funeral sermon was
preached by the Rev. Philip Alston. and /
this was the last Of Isaac Rawlings.

NHNO D."
Emperor William and President
Theirs have agreed upon terms of
peace. They embrace the payment
by France of $4,000 600 Thalers,
250, 200, 600 dollars, and the cession of
Alsace and Lorraine, including the
fortresses and cities of Metz and
Nancy. These terms will now re-
ouire the ratification of the French
National Assembly, hut IL is not
question of doubt that the ipeople
of France are ready TO agree upon
any reasonable terms of peace. 1t is
rminently fitting that Theirs should
he called upon to bring about these
terms. He was the only member,
out of lao, OF the Corps Legislatif,
that voted against declaring war
France is at peace now, but how
long will che remain thus? The
Chicago Tribune reasons as follows:
The payment of $40, 900 900 thalers
IL a email affair for so rich a nation
as France. The loss of her military
prestige ia, in her eyes, a matter of
greater moment. But the loss of the
two provinces, on the Rhine and the
Museile, embracing three of her
principal cities, will be sure to bring
on renewal OF the war AZ soon as
the people feel that they are ready
for II. The Germans say that
the French will renew the war as
coon as they think they can do so
with success, whether Alsace and
Lorraine be taken from them or not.
They justify the taking of these
provinces as q measure necessary to
seIf,defence. Undoubtedly, the
French would recommence h0stili-
ties, without compunction or apollo.
Ry, for no better purpose than to re-
cover their standing as the first mil
itary power of Europe, If their pres
ent feeling could last ten or twenty
years. Undoubtedly, such feelings
would last with sufficient intensity
for oil purposes, if the former regime
or anything akin 10 it, were to dom
mate The country during the next ten
or twenty years. But there would be
room for all friends of humanity to
bope that, with the overthrow of
Bonnpartism and the establishment
Of something like a republic, n new
education might be given to the peo-
pie, Which might teach them that
mere military glory is only supre-
macy in harbarism, and that their
unprovoked raid against Germany
was q crime of the highest type,
which was justly punished 10y the
overthrow of the French armies and
the capture of the French capital
There would be room for this hope.
We say, if the terms of peace did not
Include the partial dismem berment
of France. But, So long as the peo-
pie of Alsace and Lorraine hold out
their hands for help toward Paris,
there will be no room for such hope.
Another war will come in due time.

WAlTHAM
WATCHES.

The extensive use of these Watches for the last
fifteen years by Railway Conductors, Engineers,
and Expressmen, the most exacting of watch
wcarers, has thoroughly demons rated the
strength, stsadiness, durability and accuracy of
OF the Walhsm Watch. To satisfy that class in
all these respects is TO decide the questions as to
he real value OF these time keepers.
More than 500, ZOO of these Watches are now
speaking for themselves, in the pockets Of the
Peoples proof and guarantee of their superb
ority over all others.
The superior organization and great extent of
the Company's Works at Waltham. enables them
to produce watches at a price which rtnders
competition futile, and those who buy any other
watch merely paying from IS to so per cent. more
FOR their watches than lie necessary.
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 watch making originating in this
country or in Europe, only those were finally
adopted which severe testing by the most skilful
artisans In our works and long use on the part Of
the public, demonstrated to be essential to cor
rect and enduring time keeping.
Among the many improvements we would par
ticularize:
The invention and usc of a center-pinion of pc
culiar construction 10 prevent carnage to the train
by the breaking Of main-sprIngs, is original with
the American Watch Company. who. having bad
the refusal Of all other COntrivances, adopted
FogS patent pinion as being the best and fault
less,
Hardened aud tempered har-springs, now uni
versaly admittt by Natchmakers 10 be the beet,
are used In all grades of Waltham Watches.
All Waltham Watches have dust proof caps,
protecting the movement from duet and lcssening
TIE necessity OF the frequent cleaning necessary
in other watches.
Our new patent stcm-winder. or keyless watch,
is already decided success. and great improve
ment on any stem-winding watch in the Ameri-
can market, and by far the cheapest watch of It's
quality now offered to the pnblic To those liv-
ing la portions of the United States where watch
makers do not abound, watches with the above
mentioned improvements which tend TO ensure
accuracy cleanliness, durability and convenience,
must prove invaluable.
The trademarks of the various STYLES made by
the Company, are as follows:
