HOW WATCHES ARE MADE.

l. will be apparent to any one who will err
anime a solid gold watch, that aside from
the necessary thickness for engraving and
polishing "a large proportion of the preci-
Gus metal used is needed only to 81 iffen
and hold the engraved portions in place,
and supply the necessary solrity ana
stlensth. The surplus gold is actually
needless 80 far as utility and beauty are
concerned. In James BOSS PATENT
GOLD WATCH CASES, this waste of pre-
cious metal is overcome, and the same
solidity and strength are produced,
at from 1-3 to 1-2 of tie usual cost of soli,:
cases. This process is OF the most simple
nature, as follows: A plate of nickel COM
position metal, specially adapted to the
purpose. has two plates Of solid gold sol
dered one on each side. The three are
then passed bet ween polished steel rollers,
and the result is strip of heavily plated
composition, from which the cases. backs,
centres, bezcls. etc., are cut and shaped by
suitable dies and formers. The gold il
these cases is sufficiently thick to admit
OF all kinds of chasing, engraving and
enamellIns; the engraved cases have been
carried until worn perfectly smooth by
time and use without removing tie gold.
They are for sale by all jewellers, and each
case is warranted by special certificate.

Ohio ('nn BE Won.

ly 10 friend i'll this city that there
is a reasonable prospect of the Dem
oerats carrying Ohio at the October
election, aud that be never knew
the Democracy to be so thoroughly
GaI field, lie writes, is
not IA strong candidate in his own
State, and fails to arouse any en-
tIiusiasm. Mr.. Thomas Sh, rlock,
of Cincinnati, when in this city Il
few days ago, gave it as his opinion
that Ohio was safer for the Democ>
facy than Indiana This cheerful
Information, which crowds in upon
the National and Congressional

No Military Nonsense.

Under this heading, a Northern
contemporary has the good taste
and the good sonse to say that Gen.
Hancock is presented to the cleo
tors of the country as a fit person
to be President, not because of his
qualities as a good soldier, display
ed as they PROFESSIONALLY were on
m,uy fields, but because of his
qualities as law-respecting patrl>
OF, displayed when, having absolute
power thrust upon him, he deliber-
ately decided in favor OF civil in-
stead OF military government.
The nominee of the Cincinnati Con
ventiOn is not Hancock the General,
but Hancock the Citizen not the
soldier who fought and won at
Gettysburg, but the selfcontained
patriot who declare that "the right
of trial by jury, the habeas corpus,
the liberty Of the press, the freedom
of speech, the natural rights of per =
sons. and the rights of property
must be preserved
The Southern people do not re-
member with particle of i'll feeling
Gen. Hancock's splendid military
record on the Union side of the war.
They accord to him full credit for
following his convic ions of duty,
just as they followed theirs, but to
say that they are supporting him
because he fought on that side and
whipped them, is to say that they
are a breed of fawning hypocrltcs.

THE Hayes Administration is
frue to its corrupt and fraudulent
birth. For vile pirtizanship aud
downright misrepresentation and
Islander of the Southern people, the
Grant regime bad as it was, is not
10 Oe compared to it. For example,
che Attorney General, Devens, has
fhe hardihood to publish that if the
t.Demoeratic party were successful
that whole sections OF the country
would lapse into condition of un>
rpbuked lawIessness aud anarchy.
The local authorities and public
sentiment openly defy the laws OF
the United States, and the higher
authorities, fearful OF offending this
sentiment, countenance the condi.
lion OF affairs by declining to give
the Federal officers their moral
support" When the intelligent
people Of the South who know that
there is as much reverence for law
and order exhibited in their own
States as any other portion of the
Tnion, see themselves slandered in
this way by leaders who speak for
and represent the Republican par~
ty, il it a wonder that they are

A Question Answered.

A late issue OF uarper's Weekly
contains an article, presumab' y
written by Mr.. Curtis, from which
we take the following:
s.And why, since slavery has gone.
since the distractions OF , ate SOY
ereigntv are not to be reduced TO
practice, since the reasons for the
existence OF the South as a distinct
political force have disappeared
why does Senator Hampton still
speak oft as united Why Is it
conceded that it will be ''so'id y
Why is a Republican vote assumed
to be hostile to the S, nth ?"
The Republican vote is hostile to
the South because it has done all
in its power to subject these South
ern States to the dominion of the
colored race 1t went deliberately
to work in 1865 TO build up a low
er in the South in lis own interest
and TO retain itself IN office at Wash
ingtOn. 1t ST. inned the census res
turns and DISTINGUISHED tens of
thousands of whites in every Sonth-
ern State, hoping to destroy their
influence or to corrupt their inde-
pendence. With these votes dis
franchised, it expected, and the
fact justified the expectation, that
the enfranchised negroes would get
possession of every Southern State.
The fool who came to the South
upon the fools GRAND. acknowl~
edges that the Republican party
made blunder in committing this
great crime against intelligent, hon
est and free government. That
blunder, planned in greed for power
and perpetrated with all the artI
and appliances of tyranny, was
enough to startle, shock, terrify and
consolidate the white population
against such rule AS was ccntem>
plated by the party in power. A
few years of such rule satisfied the
warmest friends IF the Union in the
South, that party is not fit to rule
this republic that could commit
such fatal blunler.
Our fields were deserted. Our
Legislative halls We're made the
pandemonium for race which bad
never before met in convention cx>
cept to eat each other. The Pie>i
dent of the United States sent his
spies and army to terrify the rural
districts. He encamred his soldiers
around the State houses and organs
lied governments at the point of
the bayOnet. His friends robbed
the State Treasures right and left,
and corrupte'. every avenue of gov
eminent Never was there such
an outrage upon civilization, not
since the days of the pe,juIies of
Titus Oates, and the bloody assizes
of Jeffreys. To those who sit in
the counting rooms of Boston and
at the editorial desk of Harper's
Weekly, this may seem extravagant
language. o. the contrary. it Is
the language of soberness and
truth.-Mobile Register.

The Prospect Before Us.

1t is now exceedingly probable,
says the New York Sun. that all the
States which voted for Mr.. Tiiden
ip 1876, and which gave him a de-
cided majority of the electors, aud
a majority of more than Il quarter
of million OF the popular VOC,
will 60 for Ii ,ncpck.
The electoral votes Of Louisiana,
Florida and South Carolina. nine
teen in all, were stolen by the con-
Spirdtors who organized the great
fraud. The late Zach. Chandler
and the present John Sherman
were principals in that conspiracy,
with james 4. Garfield as chief of
staff. in his double capacity of visit
ing statesman at New Orleans to
aid Wells and Anderson in their
false returns, and as member of the
Electoral Commission to sustain
them and the forged certificates of
electors which Kellogg and his crew
had fabricated.
The Ti!den States would give
Hancock 203 electors, or eighteen
more than the niece Ssary number of
1855, There is hardly u reasonable
doubt now alb mt any one of them,
and the probability is, that after
Indiana shall have made her record
others will be eager TO fall into the
winning Column, and thus cOntrib-
ute to Il sv eaping victory, Con III
dence is also fortified by the cOnvic
ton that, it legally elected, Gen.
Hancock will take his seat IN the
White House and will exercise the
functions of President, in spite of
all Vaccinations to the contrary.
The friends of Hancock will claim
nothing that is W org, and will sub
nit to nothing that is wrong. The
cOnspiIa,Ors Of 1876 are now III pos
session of stolen power, They can
not repeat III ir former frauds, hes
cause their cOntederates i'll the
South are no longer able to pack
Returning Boards or to falsify Ger
tificates. But they are fully capa-
bile of resorting to other methods
equally criminal, i'll order TO retain
culitIo oil of the Government.
The standing army of more than
IA hundred thousand officeholders is
a mere fraction of the enormous
power welded by this Administra
ton. The Treasury alone handles
over SIX hundred millions a year OF
receip'S and expenditures. The Gus
tons, the banks, the internal rcve
nue., the Post Office. the Indian
service, the pensions, the patents,
the land serv ice, the army and the
navy, the revenue service, the coast
survey, the judicial service. with
the nlarsha's, deputies, district at
torneys, clerks, commissioners and
other branches, reach into mnlti-
tude of interests. and touch the
rockets of millions of people.
The bt H. firiaries of this system
do no: mean to give up without ii
severe struggle. They are contend
ing not only for what they have &C
qnired already and what they ex-
pect TO get in the future, but also
to prevent any exposure of the
methods by which they have be-
come enriched. Hence they fight
desperately against a change, and
they will not scruple at at any
means to prevent that desired cons
But Gen. Hancock
will probably be elected, and in that
event he certainly will be inangu>
rated.
