NO CHANGE.
In spite of the humane decision of a paternal Government to relieve us of another 11 per' cent; of duty, the price of the * correct' tithe,’ 1,e., the Waterbury, will riot be changed this season. The gentleman who longs for .accurate time, and possesses the necessary thirteen and sixpence, can still wAlk into the establishment of our agents and demand a brand-new Waterbury, and come away fully satisfied that he has secured tlie beßfc time-keeper on earth for his money. The Waterbury is a plain niokle-cased watch with a thoroughly reliable movement, and is built for' use. The man who spends ten times the money on a patent double-barrelled Brummagem jewelled second-splitting chronograph gets more glitter bet less value, and needs to make a contract with the.Jeweller to keep it in order for say.a third, of his income if he wants to be fairly near the time.
