Jan. 16-ly TRIUMPH OF MECHANISM. AMERICANWATCHES. Watches are produced by the same sys- JL tern that has made American Fire-Arms the best in the world. It substitutes the rapidity and precision of machinery for the slow and unrelia ble results ol handicraft. The factory consists of a series of machines devised expressly for this es tablishment, each of which works true to exact ness, turning out each part s<* us to be an accurate fit in any one of a thousand watches. Absolute precision of time is nearly attained by these watches, as the inevitable result of their simplici ty and exactness of structure. The ease of their repair is obvious, as the makers have always on hand, for sale, the different parts of the watch perfectly finished, to repair damages. Besides the watch heretofore offered to the trade, wo are now making a second quality, inferior to the first only in having less finish in immaterial parts and u lighter case. This we oiler at a price so mode|iate as to be within the means of every class, ami we recommend it as sound and reliable, and greatly superior to imported watches of equal price The trade are cautioned against English and Swiss imitations with which tlie country is flood ed. Each of our best Watches is engraved on the plate, Appleton, k Cos., Waltham, Mass., and is accompanied with a certificate of genuineness and perpetual warranty, over our own signature. Wc refit with new Enamel Irials, of beautiful quality, watches of all kinds, the dials to which may have been broken.

March lO tr E BARNARD A CO. &ije ‘gailtj; gw. Saturday Morning, April 3, ISSB. Vine Culture in the United States. Considerable doubt seems to exist in certain quarters ns to tho success of the experiments now making in various parts of tho country in tho manufacture of wine from nativo grapes. Tho following ex tract from the News, published in Vevay, Indiana, which was settled by emigrants from tho Swiss villagu of the same name, who were probably tho first to introduce the grape culture in the West, states some of the causes of its failure : “We have always looked upon it as a settled fact that any attempt to render general tho culture of the vine would re sult in ruin to the party attempting it.— Our seasons are variable—one, winter too cold—the next too open anil wurm—one summer is too dry and too hot—another is too wet. Tho truth is, that land in the Ohio river valley is worth more mo ney per acre to raise grass and wheat and corn, than it is to raise grapes. We re gard that any man who enters into the culture of the wine without a capital like that of Mr. Longworth, of Cincinnati, will he ruined in ten years. Wo aro sure that the results of tin: chemical analysis will show that all the money Mr. L. has ever made out of the vine culture has been done by adulterating the juice of the grape and making a little go a good way. in support of our idea, wo would refer to the experience of the vino when commenced, where at an early day largo amounts of money were expended in tho preparation of the ground and planting grape vines. Now, there is not a farmer who has any viues who takes pains to do more than raise grapes enough for his family to eat, and (o make enough to have a drink or two in the hot weather. In deed, we may say in the vicinity of Vo vny, where the vine growing was first at tempted in America, it has been aban doned, ami men are raising liny, wheat and corn.” - - - A Beginning'. We arc pleased to he able to announce, by authority, that a step lias been taken in an enterprise, that should have been in operation fifteen yeurs ago. Arrange ments have been finally completed, by a very few of our citizens, to ofieri direct trade with one or more Texan ports. As a beginning, the steamer Fashion will be despatched from (his port within a few weeks as the pioneer. Should the busi ness be sufficient to justify it, another steamer will run in connection with her. The Fashion has just come out of the Dry Dock, where she wns thoroughly over hauled, and found to he perfectly staunch and sound. All that was necessary to be done was scraping the bottom and a little caulking. The inspectors, after having closely examined her, pronounced her as staunch as when first built, and entirely seaworthy in every respect. Wo are not advised as to her commander, but the pub lic may rest assured that the proper mau will he selected. We know the parties well enough to say, with certainty, that the captain, whoever he may be, will pos sess the ability and character to ensuro safety aud comfort to passengers. It is with no ordinary feelings that wo announce the consummation, in part, of this enterprise. That it will pay hand somely, we do not entertain a doubt, and if the success follows that we anticipate, a consort for Lite Fashion will be required early next season. Jtut this is not tho only result wo look for. A line of steam ships— two at least—will be demanded to run between Mobile and New V'ork, con necting at this end witli the Texas steam ers. The inauguration of a few enterpri ses of this kind, and the early completion of the Mohilo and Ohio Kail lload, will at once drive away the despondency now brooding over some of our faint-hearted people. —Mobile Mercury, 27th ult. —■ Tin- Lakes of Illlniieiiata. A correspondent of the Minuesotian supplies that paper with a table giving the dimensions of ninety-three lakes in Minnesota, comprising the larger number of those most known. Thousands of oth ers of smaller extent are distributed over the surface of the country, and a great many of a mile or two iu length have been omitted for want of a name. The largest lakes iu the State, according to this table, are Red Lakes in i’emhina county, thirty miles long and twenty’ wide; Big Stone Lake, thirty miles long by three miles wide; Mille Lac, twenty miles long and fifteen wide ; Lac Traverse, twenty-five miles long by eleven wide.— Most of (lie list, however, aro from one and a half to six miles long, and from one to three miles wide. The water iu all these lakes is perfectly pure and sweet, and they are all of great beauty of shore and surroundings. The lakes of Minne sota form a distinguishing feature of the country, and lend an air of charming ro mance to the landscape. —.— Ten Tliuukiinil Dollar. Stolen. A hold and extensive robbery was com mitted iu Baltimore last Friday, at the counter of the Farmers’ and Planters’ Bunk. A clerk of Enoch Pratt <St Broth er called at the hank, and reaching around tho wire screen of tho book-keep ers’s desk, placed his hank book and a package containing SIO,OOO in assorted Virginia hank notes on the desk, and then left the bank for the post office.— There was a stranger standing near at the time, hut no notice was taken of him. The book-keeper stepped for a few min utes to another desk for the purpose of entering some checks, and when lie re turned to his own desk the package of money and the stranger had both disap peared. —— -- ♦ ——— Hillards. In answer to a correspondent Porter’s .Spirit of the Times gives the following decision : If a player at billiards pocket his hall after touching the white, fie cannot lose more than two. To gooff tho red, or both reds, counts three against him; hut if, after tuchiug one or both of the reds, lie enrroms on the white one also, he eaunot lose hut two. The practice pursued in some localities, of losing by going in, ns many as you have made on the stroke, is u bad one. It is making a penalty against merit, and has never reached the dignity of a rule. - No More Banks at Present. There are several hills before tho Penn sylvania Legislature, to charter now Banks, hut the Committee to which they wero referred has reported against their passage. On this the Ledger remarks; “This is all very well, aud is as we ex pected. No more Bnuks are now wunted, and nobody having money to Bank on would think of employing it in establish ing one. Those persons who are press ing applications for Bunks are, iu the main, men who want money from Banks —having none of their own to lend.” (NO. ’2ll.
