What our present mis-ion is, is really mole than i can say, wiles*, indeed, that of nil army of occupation and observation. We are busily em gaged in drilling and relax nothing of our for um r discipline. At first our neighbors were greatly excited at the greatness of <>er force, thinking our attitude eminently hostile to their kind of uovernmeirt.

How Ion" this order of r'tings shall Continue, is mora than we ran till, but 1 i'ope not long, as every principle of Christian charity would demand interference (u stay the hand of h'oud Hitter is the cup pour Mexico has to drink? but I question if .-lie ever will lie better situated, ■Ci ther under a monarciiial gnverinent, or as a Heoubiic governed by licr own base leaders Sail, with all the manifest unfitness of Mexico for d roooratic rule, we are far from being in sjrtnpathy with Louis X ipnleon and M :\imil ian in their efforts to bring Mexico under for eign domination. It i- a popular idea and a j i-t one, that *A u''i ieans shoul! rule America." M xito is our next neighbor and we are not di-pleased to see the troops of a power which was from first t • last in sympathy with the reb el-, upon tlx- border f the section but lately in rebellion. Then our Monroe doctrine is in the way, and. therefore, if we had the inclination, or dtspositi 1.1 to favor Max. in his present de signs, we would tie quite inconsistent, llcnoe, duty, consistency and policy demand from us a pointed repudiation of the Imperial dynasty. He vend all this, we know full well that Uie op po limit) afforded by ouf rebolion was taken a- the occasion to force a foreign prince upon .Mi-xico. Tne leader of Hie "Liberals. "* Juarez, has tun* far successfully maintained the struggle, ilthough having hut a few thousand men, and with such Iro y? as Mexicans make, has been abl ■ to maintain hiuisctt, thus far, against the veterans of the tir-t military power of the old world. This is proof enough that he has the -yinputhies ot Ids people, the ; r patriotic in stincts ueing with him- Juarez has from first to last been the firm friend and supporter of our gov prune n', and whenever he could give us aid in any w iy. he did so cheerfully and without sunt. Therefore, J hold it is our duty to exer cise fidelity and extend all the n?ural support of our government, in assisting him to drive the base invader from his soil. Ido not court war, neither do I think that war could result from such a policy. However, we are pretty well prepared for it, should it come, and with our present armies and navies could set at defi ance—not only those of France, but of all E'jrojic. I think Nap >leun appreciates the sit uation, and with a strong protest from the "De partment of State,he would not attempt the augroentaibn of his present force in Mexico. This, of itself, would be sufficient, for as soon as the people would see that they Were suppor ted Ivy the United States, they would rise in sufficient numttenf to expel the present invaders I from their soil. Our nary could certainly pre ven. the landing of others. Should we con clude to enforce the Monroe doctrine, there re mains n'o alternative but annexation, for us. the 'Mexican people have proven themselves incapable of self-government. It would re- i quire fores to reduce them to order, the em ployment of a considerable army and a large expenditure of means; but this would be more than made up to us, by the acquisition of the immense mines cf gold, silver, lead, copper, quicksilver and other minerals every where scattered through Mexico, fbeae mines are as vol little known,tyring to the unsettled con dition of things. Daily, however, we hear of extensive discoveries of those valuable miner als, whoso richness can only he .developed by tho establishment of good order. Owing to the influx ot Mexicans, specie is quito plenty ; In Brownsville, silver being worth" no more than "Greenback*' in ihe purchase of good*.

It having come to our knowledge that imititions of the Aineiican Watch have been put upon the market in grest number, calculated by their utter worthies*ne*s to injure the reputation of our genu ine products, to protect our own interests and the public f.om imposition, we again pubii-h the trade niaik? by which our Watches may invariably be known. We manufacture four styles of Watches. The FIRST has the name "AMERICAN WATCH CO., Waltbam, Mass.," engrjved on the inside plate. The Second has the name " aPPLETON.TRACY be CO., Wahhana, Mass.." engraved on the inside plate. The 1 hied has the name '•P. S. BARTLETT, Walthain, Mau.," engraved on the insifle plate. All The above styles have the r.sme Amencan Wdtch Co. printed on the dial, and are warranted in every respect. The FOURTH has the name "WM. ELLEKY, Boston, Mass.," engraved on the iq-ide pi te, and is not named on the dial. All ihe above described Watches are made 01 va rious size*, and are told in gold or silver cases, as may be required. It is hardly pos*ible for us to accurately describe the num< rotis imitations to "vhLh we have alluded. They are usuaHy inscribed with names so nearly approaching our own as to escape the observation Of the unaccustn ned buyer. Some are represented as made bv the "Union Watch C 0.," of Boston, Mass.," —in such company existing. Some are named the •■Soldier's Watch," tc be sold as our fourth or Wm. Fllery style, usually known as the "Soldier's Watch." Others are named the "Appleton Watch Co," otheis the "P. S. B-utley," instead of our "P. S. Bar'.lett ;"* besides many varieties named in such a manner as to convey the idea that they are the veritable productions of the American Watch Company. We ai-o caution the public, and particularly soi- Ait rs, against buying certain articles called Watch es, so freely advertised in illustrated papeis as ".Army Watches," "Officers' Watches," "Magic Time Observers," "Arcana Vatches," Ac., the pri ces of which are stated to be from seven to sixteen dollar*. A good Watch, in these times, cannot be afforded for any arh money. A littie attention on the part of buyers wti! pro tect them from gtoss imposition.
