AT that moment new and most beautiful

first great improvement-the substitu.
ton of springs for weights-was in 1850
The earliest springs were not coiled, but
only straight pieces Of steel. Early
watches had only one hand, and, being
wound up twice a day, they could not
be expected to keep the time nearer than
fifteen or twenty minutes in twelve
hours. The dials were Of silver and
brass; the cases had no crystals, but
opened at the back and front, and were
four or five inches in diameter. A plain
watch cost more than 81, 500, and, after
one was ordered, it took year to make
it.-Brooklyn Eagle.

The Parts Bouievards Changing.

The pliys,ognomy of the boulevards Is

the appearance of the Spanish streets,

SO many hawkers of small and cheap
prints. of caricatures, of pamphlets, of
books more or less indecent in char

The populace Of Belleville has come
down and taken possession of the CEN
tral avenue, with no dangerous intent
but with view to commerce which
would have been sternly frowned upon a
few years ago. A vender Of cheap but. :.

ginning to have an influence upon the
