THE NEW
w ALT II AM !

Tho past twelve months at the wNltham
Watch Factory have been the busiest in the
Companys history. Several wholly new stem
winding watches have been produced, and great
improvements have been effected in the manu-
facture Of all variety of their standard watches,
until now they include every size in both key
and stem winding that can be desired, of every
quality and OF every price. AT the same time
new inventions in machinery and other large
economies, have cheapcned the cost. so that at
present it is not too much to claim that the Wal.
than Watches are the best and cheapest watches
| n the world These claims arc, in fact, almost
everywhere admitted. In this country It ia n
matter Of fact that hardly any fine American
watches are sold but those Of the waltham make,
| while orders are now regularly received from
England, Australia, and the British Possess
sions generally, and foreign countries arc aban-
donins the hand made productions Of Swltzcr-
land and England, and eagerly adopting Amer
lean machine made Wsltham watches in their
place.
Buyers Of silver watches should be careful to
observe the stamp OF the Company on the case,
a. well as on the movement, rs the waltham

which are inferior both in quality of metal aud

DEAD.

Brevct Major General Lorenzo
Thomas, late Adjutant General of the
army died in Washington yesterday
aged seventy two. He was graduated
at West Point in about 1929. Ho was
Scott's Adjutant in the Mexican war,
and from its close until the opening Of
the rebellion he was Adjutant General
OF tho War Department at Washing
ton. During the first two years Of
the war he was prominent as Adjntant
General at Washington, but owing to
his increasing infirmities of mind and
body he was substantially shelved for
the balance of the conflict by being
assigned elsewhere than Washington on
nominal duty. Since the close Of the re-
bellion he has been on duty as General
Superintendent of National Cemete-
ries. One Of his sons was slaughtered
in the Modoc war. and another re.
m aims in the regular army.

THE Forty-Third Congress-, just ad-
journcd, has been very remarkable
one. There has been no time in the
history of the country when there has
been such a disposition to find fault,
on the part of the people, with men in
office, either elective or appointive, as
in the two years comprising the life
OF this Congress. AS whole, we
think it has done we'll. 1t promptly
reduced its own pay at the demand of
the people, which had been increased
by its predecessor 1t has been called
upon to pass through the only none.
tary crisis we have had since the re.
beilion, and while it did little to rem
edy the trouble, who can say that, act
ing at the time they did, he could
have found an equal number of men
who would have done better? True
there has been weak and bad men in
this Congress, but such is the fate of
all those which have preceded
II VIC were to criticize this Congress
We would point first of all to what we
think is its lack of backbone in crap.
pling-boldly with the indications of
treason that for twelve months have
shown Themselves so plainly in the
South. Ten years after tho rebellion,
this Congress has been too tcmporiz-
ing In Its action with the authors of
that rebellion.

The kind Of soldiers that Republi.
cans elect to Office arc Union soldiers.
And the kind Of soldiers that the Dem.
ocrats elect arc Confederate soldiers.
just in the proportion that tho Dem.
ocracy get control, just in that proper.
tion Union soldiers have to step down
and out, and Confederate soldiers are
brought to the front. The Democrats
complained of military Govern.
ment they didn't believe in filling
civil Offices with military men. That's
what they said. But they have elected
more Confederate soldiers to Congress
in the last two years than the Republi-
cans have elected OF Union.S Soldier
Congressman in thrice the time. Some
conclude that it is Union soldier gov
ernment that the Democracy don't
like; that they have NO objection what.
ever to Confederate soldier govern
ment. And this is q peculiarity Of re-
vcrsed Democratic sentiment that the
whole country would do well to bear
particularly in mind.-Keokuk Gate

lieve this is the greatest mistake that
has for years been made by so import

Representatives. We are aware that
it took the whole Democratic vote of
the House united with Republicans
sufficient to pass such resolution, but
we cannot forcgo what we deem an
urgent duty, viz: to declare that this
act is In our opinion great mistake.
Were it alone to pertain to Arkansas
and 60 no farther it would not be of
such great significance, but as pre-
cedent for rebcl Democratic domina-
tion and defiance oflaw in other States

fears may prove unfounded. We trust
the Senate will arrest tho passage of

TEMPORARILY, and until tho first OF
next December, % we gather from the
dispatches, Congress has practically
restored tho franking privilege upon
all matter save letters. It has also
made permanent the provision for al
lowing agricultural reports and seeds
to pass through the malls FREQ. We
do not believe there was any usc for
this partial and temporary restoration
OF the Franking privilege. Why Con-
gress should have regarded this meas
ure - Of sufficient importance to be
pushed into tho last hours Of Con.
gress at the expense Of matters OF far
grester importance, we cannot SEQ. 1t
does seem 40 though such tollics will
never have an end. The measure was

The Burlington Gazette aars:

"If 1t is absolutely necessary that
President Grant for tho promotion of
his aspirations for third term should
practically assert his power to super
cedc law by military force in Mississ.
ippi, he might find better pretexts for
exercising that power in regulating
the riotous political conventions of his
supporters In that State than in fore
ing notorious plunderers into Offices
to which they have NO righttul claim
at the point Of the bayonet."
The above is tho way Democratic
journals have of sustaining White
Leaguers in the South. Tho writer Of
the above knows that he utters false-
hood in charging that Gen. Grant
wants third term. He knows that
he falsifies when he charges that Gen.
Grant wants to bc given the means to
suppress murder and revolution in tho
South, in order to use them to
forcc himself again into the Presiden.
tial Chair. He knows that he writes
and publishes such stuff knowing It to
be false because hc desires to mislead
that ne thus talks purposely in q
round about way to defend his cut.
throat friends in the South by beratc.
ing and lying about the President.
The Gazette was In the Same busi.
ness when Its Southern friends had
rebelled and lay surrounding the Ma.
tional capitol seeking Its capture. II
then had for it's calling the same abuse
OF Mr.. Lincoln, but nary word Of up
braiding of rebels. The barefaccd an.
dacity of such journalism shows the
