How Watch Cases are Made.

The many great improvements intro
duced in the manufacture of the Jas. Boss
Gold Watch Case, have led to similar i'm
provements in the making Of silver cases.
Under the old methods, each part of a
silver case was made of several pieces of
metal soldered together, requiring great
amount of cutting and soldering, which
soitened the metal and gave it the pliability
of lead rather than the elasticity of silver.
Under the improved methods, each part
of the keystone Silver Watch Case is made
of one solid piece Of metal hammered into
shape. The advantages are readilyappar-
ent, for every one knows that hammering
hardens the metal while soldering soltcns it.

weight Of any other make will give enough

preaching train sounded and the darkcy

preaching train sounded and the darkey
moved away from us.
AS the train rolled up the excitement in
creased, some of the women singing, i'll
low tone, "Git on board, little chillun."
You could hardly hear your ears for the
continuous talking, all Of their tongues
moving at once, bidding the emigrants
goodbye and telling them they hoped soon
to Join them in their new home. The train
rolled off and we could not miss those that
had gone.
We are told that quite number of men
and boys left the city Sunday afternoon
afoot, going to Seneca City, where they
took the cars. This makes perhaps seventy
five or eighty negroes that have emigrated.
We understand that another party expect
to leave next Saturday or Monday.
The emigration spirit seems to be spread
ing all over the County. AS yet we are un-
able to learn the cause of the sudden move
ment. We surnise, however, that it has
been slowly and silently worked up by
some of their designing leaders, who, it IS
said, receive from two to five dollars from
the emigration agents for every ticket pur-
chased. We can attribute the movement to
nothing else, for we venture there is not a
County in the State where the negroes, as
a whole, are in better condition than those
of Anderson County. There are quite a
number of them who own farms, we'll
stocked with farming implements, stock,
&C., and who have good credit This class,
however, do not seem to be affected with
desire to emigrate. It is confined, in
great degree, to their worthless, thrittess
brother, who is easily duped by any schem-
ing or designing party that comes along
Arkansas is fine agricultural State, and if
they will go there and so to work, econo-
mizs and cease rowing about from place to
place, they will thrive and prosper. II
they go there, however, under the delusion
that they will not have to work for living
they will be badly disappointed.

The Negro Exodus to Arkansas.

On last Monday afternoon long before the
time for the arrival of the up-train crowds
of negroes-men, women and children
could be seen vending their way to the de-
Dot, and considerable excitement seemed to
be prevailing among them. 1t was another
party of emigrants leaving for Arkansas.
With that curiosity characteristic of a
newspaper scribe we went to the depot to
see them off. Arriving there we found
very large crowd Of negroes, the majority
of them women, standing on the platforms
and the ground adjacent, awaiting the train.
The arrival of Barnum's show could not
have drawn larger crowd. Gazing on the
crowd, we thought if they were all going
to leave, the city would surely be depopu-
lated Of the "colored brother" We in.
quired Of the agents how many tickets had
been sold, and were informed that only
twenty seven had been purchased. There
were several small children in the party,
and this would make the number of emf
grants over thirty.
We made our way through the crowd,
inquiring of nearly every man if he was
going off. All of them gave us negative
answer. Finally we came across one who
replied in the affirmative. He was appa-
rently about thirty years old, and dressed
in an old worn-out suit Of clothes. Strapped
across his back he carried an old musket,
and in one hand held budget of clothes
and in the other an old quilt or two.
"You look like you are fixed for travel
ling" said we to him.
"Yes, sir" he replied.
where are you going?"
"Kansas."
"You are not going where the others are,
then? They are going to Arkansas"
"Dat's de place. We all's gwine to stop
at Little Rock"
"What are you going to do there?"
sob, Use gwine to work. I kin git twen-
ty dollars month out dar working on de
farm, an won't hev to work hard at dat. /"
We then asked him if he had money
enough to carry him out there. He re-
piled, in substance, that he could get a
ticket at Seneca City and pay for it after lie
arrived at his destination. at this juncture
of the conversation the whistle of the ap-
