A FEW REASONS WHY THE
AMERICAN WATCH
IS THE BEST.
It is made on the best principle, while the for
eign watch is generally made on no principle at all.
The foreign watch is mostly made by women and
hoys, EV HAV3, While their labor a cheap, their
work is dear at any price. Such watches are made
without plan, and sold without guarantee. They
sre nregular in construction, and quite as irrpgular
in movement. They are designed only to sell, and
the buyer is the party most thoroughly sold. Those
who have kept "ancres," "lepines,"aod "Swiss le
vers," in professed repair for a few years will ap
picciatc the truth of our statement.
THE PLAN OF THE AMERICAN WATCH.
Instead of being made of several hundred little
pieces, screwed together, the body of the American
Watch is formed of SOLID PLATES. No jar in
tertercs with the harmony of its working, and no
sudden shock can throw its machinery out of gear.
In riding or any business pursuit, rt is all held to
gether as firmly us a single piece of inetal. It is
just what all machinery should be—
-Ist. ACCURATE. 2d. SIMPLE. 3i. STRONG.
4!b. ECONOMICAL.
We not only secure CHEAPNESS by our system,
but QUALITY. We do not pretend that our Watch
can be bought for less money than the foreign maie
iehtves, but that for its reai value it is sold for one
half the price.
OUR SOLDIER'S WATCH (named Wm. Eilery)
is what its name indicates—Solid, Substantial, and
always Reliable—warranted to stand any amount
of Marching, Riding or fighting.
OUR NEXT HIGHER QUALITY OF WATCH
(named P. S. Bartlett) is similar in size and genera!
appearance, but has more jewels, and a more elab
orate finish.
OUR LADIES' WATCH, recently brought out,
is put up in a great variety of patterns, many of
ihem ot rare beauty and workmanship, i'( quite
•mail, but warranted to keep time.
OUR YOUNG GENTLEMAN'S WATCH ja neat,
not large, and just the thing for the pocket oi Voung
America.
THE PROOF of the merits ot our Watch may
be found in the fact that we now employ over sev
er. hundred workmen in our factories, and that we
are still unable to supply the constantly increasing
demand. *
OUR THREE QUARTER PLATE WATCH is
thinner and lightei than the others we have descri
bed. Its fine chronometer balance is delicately ad
justed to correct the variation caused by changes
of temperature. These watches are the fruits of
the latest experiments in chronornetry, and are
made by our best workmen, in a separate depart
ment of our factory. For the finest time-keeping
qualities they challenge comparison with the best
works of the most English and Swiso ma
kers.

By authority of the Secretary of the Treasury,
the undersigned has assumed the General Subscrip

1 Notes, bearing seven and three tenths per cent, in
-1 terest, per annuo), known as the
SEVEN-THIRTY LOAN.
These Notes are issued under date of August 15th,
j 1864, and are payable three years from that time,
j in currency, or are convertible at the option of the
1 holder into
U. S, 5-20 Six per cent,
j GOLD-BEARING BONDS
These bonds are now woiih a premium of nine per
cent., including gold interest from Nov., which
( makes the actual profit on the 7-30 loan, at current
rates, including interest, about ten per cent, per
' annum, besides its exemption from State and munt
; eipal taxation, which adds from one to three per cent.
, more, according to the rate levied on other property.
I The interest is payable semi-annuil'y by coupons
j attached to each note, which may be cut off and
I sold to any bank or banker,
j The interest amounts to
One cent per day on a SSO note.

j Notes of all the denominations named will be

This is
THE ONLY LOAN IN MARKET
j now offered by the Government, an i it is confident-
I ly expected that its superior advantages will make
; it the
CHEAT POPULAR LOAN OF THE PEOPLE.
Less than $200,000,000 remain unsold, which will
probably be disposed of within the next 60 or 90
days, when the notes will undoubtedly command a
premium, as Las uniformly been the case 011 flosing
: the subscription to other loans.
In order that citizens of every town and section
of the country may be afforded facilities for taking
' the loan, the National Banks, State Banks, and Pri
vate B,inkers throughout the country have general
ly agreed to receive subscriptions at par. Subscrr
■ hers will select their own agents, in whom they
