Jams, but we regret the refusal of the
little Office of postmsstership at Fort
Smith. But don't be dismayed, Bro.
Williams, for we assure you Bro.
Breckenridge is doing his best, at
least to silence the batteries OF the
press against him. Don't you see he
is? The seven wonders of the world
have multiplied into forty, and this
is not one Of them.
The boat that steers clear Of break
ers is the one that will not sink for
running against obstacles, and that
is what Bro. Breckenridge is doing.

That cool thought, which dictates
just policy, even in a congressional
district, will never loses the result of
its object, and the general in the army
who does not count on his strongest
lieutenants will always get lost; and
while we hardly think SO, unless the
general made a mistake, this may be
the reason Mr.. Garrett was promoted
in the line of battle, and this is our
kindly salute to Bro. Williams
on this subject; but we think Bro.
Williams the stronger lieutenant,
and that he should have had
the appointment. But go slow,
and don't finally rise against your
priest until he has finally declined to
concentrate you Bread is not the
question. Any newspaper man in
this district can get that, if he plows
for it and is not abashed by the sea-

The failure Of Editor Williams, OF the

is cause for genuine regret on the part OF
his newspaper friends all over the state.
The giving Of the place to his fortunate

politics and the ingratitude Of friends as
well. But let that pass. While the pos

MOB LAW ARRAIGNED.

The occasional unfortunate in
stances in which an appeal to person
al vengeance, in melting out swift
and terrible punishment for some
fiendish and unnatural crime, is ap.
parently justified, or rather excused,
by the exigencies of the case form
the foundation stone upon which, in
this, and every other country, Is
erected, by criminal or lawless hands,
a superstructure of unpunished
crimes. Upon almost every State in
this Union, at some time or another,
the stain of mob violence and law
less murder in its many forms has
been imprinted. Among all of the
States, there is one, in particular,
which Of late years, has suffered
deeply from this most deadly and
dangerous of all crimes, that is the
State Of Tennessee, where mob vic
lence and personal lawlessness have
run riot throughout her con
fines, staining her honored
soil with the blood of violence
and stamping the band Of lawless and
outrageous deeds upon her fair es
cutcheon But fiat has gone forth
in that state against this species o.
crime which might well be initiated
in both Arkansas and Texas anC
which we predict, will prove the frs
stroke of the bell which sounds th'
death knell of lawless murder ant
outrage in Tennessee. This gallan
call to arms was sounded by Circui
Judge Moon, in the Criminal court a
Chattanooga who, in charging tn
grand jury, sworn to investigate
recent deed of mob violence in tina
community, said: "The court is pow
erless to enforce the criminal Law
without your aid If you fear not t.
do your duty mobs may hereafte
know that the law declares that they
must die that it may live and that
cowardly aggregation of citizens wh'
take with violent hands the life o
prisoners of the law are murderers il
the first degree. Have the courage
as grand jurors to do right because /
is right, let the consequence be as i
may"

1.-THE LAST FOUR Weeks OF the
WAR;"

There probably was no period of the civil
war more fraught with events destined to
stand so prominently in history as the days
Just before the final dissolution of the
armies
A great deal is constantly being written
bearing on the war, but it is seldom that THE
NATIONAL TRIBUNE finds book which
really throws enough new light on the
momentous struggle to warrant its recon-
mendation "The Last Four Weeks of the
War" is an exception, however. The
author Mr.. Edmund n. Hatcher, has searched
the newspaper files Of those days of both the
North and South, and has brought to us an
impartial picture of the closing scenes,
not as they appear in looking back, but the
impressions they made on the days of their
Occurrence-thus making diary of events
rather than q history.
Commencing with March 25, 1865, he fol-
lows the movements of all the armies and
divisions at that time in the field, and the
acts of the leaders, upon whom all eyes were
turned, until June 20, when Gen. Meade
spoke his farewell address to his soldiers
and the Army of the Potomac ceased to
exist.
To all who are interested this will prove
valuable book.
The book is an svo. of 416 pages with
half-tone engravings. 1t is well printed
on fine paper and elegantly bound in cloth.
By special arrangement The NATIONAL
TRIBUNE will send it to any subscriber for
$1.OO, or any one sending $1.75 will receive
the book and the paper for one year, or sent
free to any one sending club Of five SUBJ
scribers at $1.0O each.

! We propose to herewith discontinue our
watch called "Elgin's Pride" No. 1O2, and
J to substitute therefor watch made by the
Waltham Company, which we believe will
not be open to the objections which have
been made to the other tancy-dial watch so
extensively advertised and sold by us. The
hands upon the "Elgin's Pride" were i'm
ported, and great difficulty was found in
| fitting them to do satisfactory work. In
| our new watches these difficulties have been
| obviated by the genius of American work
| men, who in all cases of competition have
proved their superiority.
The difficulties we encountered in making
up the "Elgin's Pride" have thus been OBJ
waited by the new product of the American
Waltbam Watch Company. The hands and
dial of the new watch are made by the
methods which have proved American me-
chanics famous in this as in all other
branches. In the watches we offer, the
movement, also, is made by the Waltham
Watch Company. This watch will be fur
nished in same fancy engraved case as
"Elgin's Pride" The works are jeweled in
all important paris with precious stones, the
regulator is of an improved pattern; the
handspring is made under LOgan's great
patents; the dial is handsome beyond our
powers Vi ueScIiptIou, duu "itoSeehei 'ho

watch is bound to prove one of the most
magnificent and satisfactory articles we have
yet sent out.
