It will bo apparent to any one, who ill examine n Solid Gold Watch, that aside from (lie necessary thickness for engraving and polishing a large propor tion of the precious metal used, is nee ded only to stiffen and hold the engrav ed portions in place, and supply the necessary solidity and strength.' The surplus gold is actually needless so far as utility and beauty arc concerned. In -Umics Boss’ Patent Goi.n Watch Casks, this waste of precious metal is ivcrcoino, and the same solidity and strength produced at from one-third to one-half of the usual cost of solid cases. I his process is of the most simple na ture, as follows: A plate of ttickle ('imposition metal, especially adapted to the purpose, has two plates of solid gold soldered on each side. The three are then passed between polished steel rollers, and the result is tv strip of heavy plated composition, front which the cases, hacks, centres, bezels, Ac,, are cut and shnped by suitable dies and for mers. l'he gold in these eases is suf ficiently thick to admit of all kinds o chasing, engraving and enameling; the engraved cases have been carried until worn perfectly smooth by time and use without removing the gold. This is the only case made with two plates ot Solid Gold and warranted by special certificate. For sale hv all Jewelers. Ask for il lustrated Catalogue, mid to see warrant. july 13, ’80—ly linn.

Miss Sarah Elizabeth Prescott, daugh ter of John R. aud Martha H. Prescott, was born in Burke county, Georgia, Au gust 29th, 1832, and departed this life at the residence of her brother, iu Email uel county, Georgia, November the 7th 1889. For several years she was a con sis tent member of the Baptist churoh at Darieq, in Hancock county, Georgia. And tho’ during the last few years of her lffe, she could not attend cliureh regularly, she delighted in studying tho Bible, and talking on religious subjects. In April last, her beloved mother, one of the pure of earth, was oalled to join the companion of her younger days, and though “aunt Lizzie” was in her usual health, she often spoke as if she would soon follow tl;e dear ones who lmd gone before. On Saturday night, November tho 6th, she appeared perfectly well, and retired at the usual hour. Between 3 and 4 o’clock Sunday morning, her bro ther, who was sleeping in an adjoining room, heard her breathing hard, as if choking, and went to her door and call ed. Receiving no response lie forced his way into the room, but alas! too late for his dear sister was then in the arms of death. Here was a pure Christian life, and those who know her most inti mately in tho family circle, know best how gentle, patient and good she was. Bereaved oucs; bo comforted. Think how happy she was whon her angel spir it joined father, mother, brothe: sister in that bright home above, pearly gates are still ajar, and within theni’sbe is watching and waiting for you. Let us so live, that when the death angel calls, it may be said of us as of her. He “givetli His beloved vest.” Byne. Flower Plants fo,r Sale.
