We have seen quite a number of watch chains about town ornamented wjth a neat, little charm in the shape of a watch case opener., which obviates the use of a?knife or fingernail to open the watch.

They sang in a charming manner, winning the plau* dits of the entire audience, who pronounced them the finest breed of shorthorns iu the country. A few of them are of a rich brown color, but the majority ary spotted hrowu and white.” The Supreme1 court has advanced the Indiana tax cases, which involve the constitutionality of the law of 1801, tar8 hearing on March 26th.
