The AnMioPru'?an Difficulty.
Tut. latcsi news from Europe in reference to
the dtfrences between .Prussia and Austria
leaves the question of wa? or peace in a state
o' as much unceiialnty as it was four or five
weeks ago. Both paitlea ma'ntaln a threat
ening attitude, much like that of two school
boys, each of whom has a chip on h's shou1.-;
der, and dares the other to knock it off. But
neither la willtng to tr.ke the responsibility
which the cba!!eng3 involves, end, of course,
instead of a first blow and a bloody set-to on
both sides, the pugnacious adversaries do
nothing but exchange words of banter and
ciimmation.
This sort of bristling and snarling may be
very agreeable amurement for those imme
d'r.tcly engaged in it, but It holds all
Europo and a coacideraVe part of
the outside world in a very unplea
sant str.te ot suspnse. If then is to
be a fight rea!'y and pcr.'t!vely, frera ere car
tr.?a European powerj, Inc'uding France,
Buisia, and Eng'.snd, who must, necessarily,
be very seriously implicated in the conflict,,
however sincerely they may wish to avoid
being involved in a geaeral continental war
of indefinite duvat'njwh'.'ethe United Siatas
of America cannot be unatfectad In their com
mercial Interests, at lec-t, by such an event,
however parlectly they may be enabled to
preserve their . neut.-allty between the nume
rous belligerent!. We should, no doubt, profit
large-y tn va'ioi' way by a struggle that
would embroil a'l the geat powerj In the
opposite hemisphere In a fierce and proiractcd
efl'oit to, destroy each other; industry
and trade ; and yet, aitcr the expe
rience we have recent'y gained of
the terrible evils of War, our people, in spite
or any conslderatlcrs of the fccun!ary,or
political advantrges tbey might 'realise! in
consequence of a geneial bicak-up of the
peace of Europe, would regard with sincere
regret any such disturbance as is now
threatened by the wordy controversy that Is
going on between th two leading members
of the Germanic Confederation. The largest
and truest prcspeiity and happine-rs of the
entire civilized world must ta found In uni
versal and absolute peace, and a'l nafons
should te concerned to prevent war in any
one section of the whole civcle of thoce Stages
which ere united by amicable political rela
tions and the lociprccal exchanges
of commerce. This fact suggests the
InqViy why a'l conflict-, of arms shou.d
not be aveited by the friend'y Intervention
of the principal Governments not Imme
diately concerned in there disputes which
occsnioncMy arise between two or more pr
tcubr n.t'ors or Sf itcs of the world, but
which, not wiiSstzn ding, mut suffer more cr
less directly and torsidoiably in consequence
of the conflict which they might possibly pie
vect by timely and Judicious mediation. Rus
sia has aheady stepped forward with a tender
of her Influence to efi'ect an honorable adjust
ment ot the controversy be.'ore it proceeds
from words to blows; end the els no reison
wbataver why Great Eiil-.ln and the United
StatrC; wbWi aa, tcyond all quest'on
the conf rolling powerj of the world, should not
foi'ow tbeexamplnof the Crr. Motives of
delicacy should not be allowed to prevail in
such exigencies. 1 Le hum?n family.deEcendod
from a common ancestvj, though scattered
over the glote and d'vldsd by tongues, reli.
glons, end po i'Jcal corsiitutions, should yet
ok:erve the couUcsics end amen'f ies of indi
vidurl fi.'endshlp and dooiertic relationship.
However the Christian communities and gov
ernments of tba wor'd may be eeparatcd by
geographical l'nca and lv!l lr;t'.:a:!on8,there
should, in th's advanced stvre of civi'lzat'oa,
exist the same sori of mutual regard, amity,
rnd iniarest among them that exists between
the individual member of the same house
hold. Seme yerrs ego there wei ore;sn'red what
was cs'led a peace society, whose object Wis
to sutstltuta the eraumenij and persuasions
ofierson aud !'.U3 in fie sfrad of biefa
ioi- e, foi the re'.tlement ol a'l the contentions
thaturgbt a.'se tc.wcea the va-ioue civilised
Governmen's of the world. The plan was
to have H ' inf ljiaL or-l d!'putn rcfei.cl
for decioa to a geneial cong.c:i reprt
senfng e" the gvea rnd btV.1 Stc.es
of the Chrtian woih', and from wich
the.-e should to no appeal io ihe swore'.
The Idea was eminently worthy of the
age, and hijlj c.edifbla to the benevo
lent end wi'e men wbo origlcifed it. But
their flrat efloris were not succesrful ; and
tbey seem to have abandoned what, to
or apprehension, was the subl'mett enter
piise of th's century. It is too kta to raco ver
what was so weekly su.iendered, a-d ca-iy
it out to perfect consummation. War is tot
a fit means for the satt'ement ot d'terjncc'a
between Christ.'an, or even civilized Govern
ments. Tr jth end Jusfce are but seldom or
never seemed by the triumph of numbers
over principle. War Is barbarous in its o:-in
rnd eflects. It rea'ly settles no more than a
prhate duel, in which the innocent parly
may t3 shot down, end Doth'ng but his per
KOVaal honor ba rr.ved. The tlree hai come,
we think, when disputes between Govern
ments, rs. well as individuals,, should be ar
ranged by peaceable means, and when the
natlors "shall teat their swords Into plough
shares and their spears into pruulng-hooks,
and nation aba!! not lift up sword ajainst

ti e harmony of its working, and no so idea shok can
(m(ta Its machinery Every piece la made and
Onlnbcd by machinery (Ittelf fnrooas for Its novelty, as
y-el as lor Its effectiveness) and Is therefore properly
made. Tbewatoh Is what ail meohanlsm shonld be
A C'l URATE, SIMTLE, STRUNG, a ND ECONOMI
CAL, fioept somi blrh grades, to eostly for general
nse, foreign watches ate chiefly made bv women and
boys. Such watches ars composed of . svetal honilaed
plcoes, screwed and riveted together, and require oon
stani repairs to keep them In any kind f orJar. All
pcr.ons who have carried "ano es." leplnes." and
"English Patent levers, "are perfectly well aware of
the truth of this statement
At the beginning ot onr entrrprlie, m re than ten
yrars ago It was our flwt objoct to make a tborouKhly
ytod low-priced winch lor the inliloa, to take the p ace
of these foreign lmnosi Ions the reiuis ot for Alga I ao-torles-wb-ch
were entirely unsaleable at hums and
perreot'y worthiens everywhere.
How well we bave acoi mpllshcd tbls may be under
stood from the too i, that After so maay yearn 01 punllo
trial, we now mate MURE THAN HALF OP ALL
THE WATCHES SOLD IN THE UNITED TiT8,
and tbat no others have ever given such anlverta!
satltfaollon. While this department or oar business Is
continued with Increased laclllties for porieot work we
are at present ea.a ,ed In the manufacture of watchos
of tha very
Highest Grade Known to Chronometry,
Unequalled by anything hither .o made byourralves,
and unsurpassed by any thing made In the world. For
this purpose vie bave the amplest 'acuities We have
erected an addition to our main bul.d-ngs ezpresly for
this branch of our buslnen and have fi led it with the
best workmen In our service. New maohlnes and ap
pliances Lave been constructed, which perform their
work wltb consummate delicacy and exactness. Tbe
choicest ind most approved materials only ate nsed,
and we challenge comparison ootweun this rrade of oar
work and the finest Imported chronometer.
We do not pretend to sell our watoties for Liss atomr
tban foreign watches, but we do aasert. without (bar of
contradiction, tbat or the saus momet our prodaot Is
Incomparably supeilor.
All ourwatcbes, of whatever grade, are fatly war
ranted, and this warrantee Is good at all times against
us or our agents In all parts of the world.
CAUTION.
As the high Kputatlon of our watches has caused
them to be extetMvu y oouoterfolted by foreign makers,
and sold In this country aa genuine, the public aro cau
tioned to boy only l respectable dealers. Al' persons
selling counterlel i will be exposed and prosecutod.
