®ev. G. F, Krotel , s JLecture at Musical
Fund Hall, Xast Evening'.
The fourth lecture of the course now in progress
.1n this city, umler the auspices of the Lutheran
JBoanl of was- delivered at Musical
PUDd Hall, last evening, by the Kev. Q-. P. Krotel,
pastor of St. Mark’s Lutheran Church, Spring G-av
den, above Thirteenth .street, -The .lecturer was
introduced, at A few minutes after 8 o’clock, by the
Eev. E. ■WVHUtter.v His subject was 11 E Pluribus
Unun),” and his treatment of it was ,an eloquently-
Told history of that which is symbolized to every
loyal heart by these magic words upon our national
standard. The lecture was delivered in excellent
style, and was greeted with frequent and rapturous ;
applause. The audience, notwithstanding the' un
favorable character of the evening, was large, the
Jhall having been fully two-thirds filled.
He with a reference to the rise of
standards' among ancient and modern nations, some
of which were very curious* It was in the time of
IVlarius 4 ’that the Romans first introduced the eagle
as the standard of theij;Regions. These standards
had been used to represent dignity and power—a
j allying point in battle. '•
Id the .Book of Numbers we read that standards
Were employed by the different tribes of Israel.' In
•the mi&Bt* of the Gamp of Israel was pitched the
taberrtaole, but around that centre each of the tribes
•of Israel was encamped under his own banner ; hut
-above them all, and; to which all looked,, was the
central banner of Jehovah—-the marvellous cloud by
day and the pillar of fire by night. In addition to
this, he doubted not that in most cases a few words,
•or short sentences, were added to their symbols, in
■order to make their character and purpose more ex
pressive and explicit.
This same principle was also illustrated in the
<days and history of chivalry and the Crusades.
'Heraldry had been dignified by|the|name and Import
ance of a science, and properly so. The motto which
the Black Prince, the son of Eawardthe Third, wore
in his day, was still proudly claimed and used by the
present Prince of Wales, namely, “ Ich Dien v —l serve.
Portunately, we lived in a land in which no title of
mobility could be granted to citizens of United States.
Devices of various, kinds were not prohibited on
signet rings, walls of mansions, coach panels, el
•cetera; but, after all,it was by no means indispensable
ior an American citizen to have any other arms than
•a coat with arms. To the American nation , however,
•there had been assigned by authority, the K U. S,”
•Which the juveniles of our day translated into Uncle -
Sam. And so, tnh T hkfl flsH^ri^btiWrrhrrrrr-
"tiie subject oi the lecture—“ E.Pluribus Unum.”
Having thus introduced fria subject, he proceeded
•to give briefly, though in considerable detail, the ear
ly history of this land, which had ultimately resulted
dn a Union of the various provinces composing it?
Ab early as the year 1722, the colonies 'had held a
sort of Congress, for the purpose of adopting better
defensive measures against the Indians. The lec
turer here also quoted an eloquent extract from a
speech made by the immortal Franklin, as early as
the year 1752, in which the example of the unity
existing between -the Six. .Nations of Indians
was held up as worthy the imitation of these
colonists, who spoke the' same language,
worshipped the same God, were subject to the same
power, and who were united in the same interests.
In the year 1754 j Franklin, while publishing the
Philadelphia Gaxese t had inserted in hiß paper a
wood-cut illustration representing a serpent divided
Into thii teen different parts, corresponding to the
mumber of the Colonies, with the initial letters in
scribed upon each section, and this significant motto
■underneath: “Joined, alive; divided,dead!” From
Ihis early serpentine illustration, the lecturer. hu
morously deduced the modern fancy for this class of
symbols—the “rattlesnakes“ and the “copper
heads.” This allusion to,the venomouß sympa
thizers of our day; who delight to sport this symbol
of their order, was received with deafening ap
plause, The various stages through which the idea
f Union had passed until its final achievement in
liladelphia, in 1776, were subsequently narrated,
id the conspicuous parts performed in this drama
Patrick- Henry, Samuel Adams, Franklin,
ishington, and others, appropriately referred to.
iring-the year 1775 the disjointed serpent of
inklinihad, by a mysterious power, become
ited. -Then every newspaper in the land exhi
ted at its bead a long and united serpent; and
m, too, the-useof the rattlesnake had been first
roduced, under which waß written, “ Don’t tread
me /”
The first flags of the Union were next described, 1
id the events attending the adoption of the Defla
tion of Independence successively dwelt upon.
ie modern story about the signal made to the bell
igor in the State House steeple at the moment
ien the Declaration was adopted was used with
»et, as was also the prophetic motto on the old
1, “Proclaim liberty throughout the land, unto
i the Inhabitants thereof.”
There was another event not generally known,
nnected with the histery of the 4th o£ July, 1776.
the after part of thatday OongreßS had appointed
jommitteeof three to prepare s suitable device by
ieh the individuality of the new nation might be
tgnized among the nations of the earth. This was
reported upon until the following .month, when,
mg those submitted, one' contained the motto
ch constituted the theme of hiß present dis
use—“ E Pluribus TJnum,” viz.: “One out
Many”—one great State, out of many parts,
history of the events which led to the adop
, subsequently, of the Articles of Confederation,
of the device for a coat of arms, which had at
th been attained in 1781, and which constitutes
oeautiful and expressive symbol of our nation
e, were next taken up by the lecturer, followed
the history and adoption of the Federal Conati
on. He from Washington, Jay, Jeffer
and others, to Bhow that it was only in the pre
lion of this instrument, and the spirit of unity
. it involved, that our nation, now drenched in
i, could be preserved.
e lecture, both in itß matter and style, was one
ve best of the season. The next lecture of this
i sting course will be delivered in the same hall,
3xt Thursday evening, by the Rev. Joseph A.
pastor of St. John’s Lutheran Church.

A Coat of Mail for the President. —
The Tycoon of-Japan has sent a suit of .armor to
President Lincoln, The outside of the helmet,is
profusely ornamented with chrysanthemums of gold
in open work, upon black lacquer, with a rimming
of The visor is of copper, lacquered in scarlet
.and brdwn. The armlets are of the finest copper
chain work. The breast-plate ; ia of copper, inter
sected with parallel strips ofdaequeri and woven'
together with; delicate wire and golden cord. The
Tycoon is probably not aware of the fact that in*
Philadelphia the President could procure an iron
clad vest at the Brown Stone Clothing Hall of Rock
hill &/Wilson, Nos. 6p3 and GO5 Chestnut street,
above Sixths which would be far more effective, less
costly, and more becoming than All thiß gingerbread
and lacquer work. <■
Autistic. — It is said that the artists of the
illustrated-papers put themselves in very perilous
positions in the recent fight in Charleston harbor.-
Thiß putting themselves in the front was probably
for the purpose bf drawing theenemy’s fire. We and
almost everybody /appreciate a handsome
whether it be in an illustrated paper or on a gentle
man’s back; we don’t mean the kind of cuts we re
ceived in our school-boy days, but those that Mona.
Seynave, the celebrated coat-cutter at Chaß. Stokes
& Co.’s, under the Continental, prepares for the
backs of so many of the gentlemen of Philadelphia.-
Wholesome Advice.—Be just; be gene
rous. But never be measured by the
amount you lavish on a fine dress, or that you spend
to gratify vanity and folly. Although we may not
chfy?ge vanity to those who dress well, on the con
trary, it also is a duty, though we may accomplish
it, and the others’ as well, by purchasing all our
clothing at the beautiful emporium of Granville
Stokes, No. 609 Chestnut street.

has the full sanction of the National authorities, civil,'
military, and naval. •;
is to minister to the religious and temporal wants of all
gearing the National uniform on land and sea.
The Christian Commission regards ourbrave defenders'
as men, having both bodies and . souls. Bodily relief/to
suffering men is important and imperative;: without it, ;
religious admonitions are in vain,, and a mockery.
Therefore! the Commission receives and distributes
clothing and comforts, and sends relief to. the sick,
wounded, and destitute, by every one of its delegates.
Religious instruction and consolation are more price
less still, and the Commission,-while meeting bodily
wants, does npt forget that God made men living souls
to live by His' own preciouß Word, andthat “there is
none other name.given under heaven amongst men
whereby we cau he saved ” but the -name' of the Lord
Jesus Christ, and therefore sends as delegates only such.

WATCHES AND JEWELRY.
WORD ABOUT
AMERICAN WATCHES.
AFTER A THOROUGH TRIAL OF MOKE TH AN TEN
YEARS, the time-pieces manufactured by,the American
Watch Company, of Waltham, Mass., bavegaineda firm
hold upon the favor of the public, and now, no less than
76,000 of.them are speaking for themselves in the pockets
of the people. From a .very insignificant beginning the
business has 'increased to an extent exceeding our most
sanguine anticipations, and we are now : . ustified in
stating that WE MAKE MORE THAN ONE-HALF of all
the watches sold in the; United States. Repeated enlarge
ment of our factory buildings, andthelaborof 500 opera
tives, still find us unequal to supply the constantly in
creasing demand. And we may here observe that not
withstanding the high price of labor and materials, we
: actually sell our products at less prices than those current
five years ago.
We refer to these facts only for the purpose of properl y
introducing another subject relative to our manufacture
of watches Hitherto our chief object has been to make
good watches for the million at the lowest possible price.
—something to take the place of the make-believe watches
called * ‘Ancres, ” 4 ‘Lepines, ” ‘ ‘English Patent Levers, ”
&c., annually thrown upon this market, in couutless
numbers, by European workshops—watches which are
the refuse of their .factories, unsaleable at home and per
fectly worthless everywhere.
r This object we have accomplished, and now we have
to announce, that n e have commenced the manufacture
of watches of the very
HIGHEST GRADE KNOW TO CHBONOMETRY,
unequalled by anything hitherto made by. ourselves and
unsurpassed by anything made in the world. Forthis
purpose we have the amplest facilities. We have erected
an addition to our main buildings expressly for this
branch of our business, and have filled it with the best
workmen in our service’. Profiting by our long expe
rience, we Lave remodelled the form of our watches, in
troducing such improvements as have been suggested and
proved to be good from time to time, and have instituted
new and severe tests of isochionism, adjustment, and
compensation, New machines and appliances have been
constructed, which perform tlfeir work with consummate
delicacy and exactitude, .and the choicest and most ap
proved materials only are used. Nothing, in. fact, is
wanting either in mechanical principles, material, or
workmanship to insure perfection in the result.
We continue to manufacture our other, well-known
qualities under the following names:
“APPLETON, TRACY - & CO.”
“P. S. BARTLETT,”
And tie “Soldier’s Watch.”
“WM. ELLERY.”
The latter, the lowest-priced watch we make, is a sub
stantial. reliable time-piece, cased in. sterling silver—
hunting pattern, and is not liable to get out of order
either in inarching, riding, or fighting. All' the above -
described watches including tliejfoest, which is named
“AMERICAN WATCH COMP AN?” on the plate, are
sold by watch dealers generally throughout the country*
