Co., the well known jewellers, on the cor

the Exposition case of watches that at
tracts more than ordinary attention.
The display made by the firm is almost
exclusively in watches '-among which
we noticed those of the Au erican Watch

stem .winders" attracted our attention
The improvements they have made in
this mode Of winding is not excelled by
any make in the world. We also ex-
amined other makes of our own country
the National, ct Elgin, Illinois, and
the Howard, Boston, Massachusetts,,
both splendid time.pieces, which are
sure to become most favorably known to
those who want true time. OF foreign
watches, those of Charles Frodsham,
London; Patek, Phillip 4 Co., Geneva,
and Jules Jergensen, Copenhagen, and

in watches receives the attention il so
justly deserves.
