LOCAL INTELLIGENCE,
ee
A SERIOUS CHARGE.—Pearl Ladd, of
Rough & Ready, an old resident, a man of
considerable property and heretofore esteemed as a good citizen, was recently ar.
_yested upon the charge of robbery. The
circumstances are these: Ladd owned a
ranch at Rough & Ready and Mat. Adams
worked for him, The latter had about
$3,000 in money, gold, dust, specimens,
etc., Which he kept under the head of his
bed; In February last the entire property
was stolen The robbery was committed
between breakfast time and evening. On
returning to the house, Adams missed on
_property and found a window opening to
his roomopened, No. traces were found
of any one leaving the house. Two. Chi
namen at work on the place were suspicioned: and arrested, but were discharged,
there being no evidence against them.—
Afterwards Ladd was suspicicned, The
grounds upon which the’ suspicions are
based are as follows: On the day of the
robbery, Ladd and his wife went to Grass
Valley without saying, anything about it
toany one. This they ‘were not accuswmed to do: The shipments of gold
made by him were closely watched, and
it issaid one bar was found which contained alloy and waseither from coin or jewelty. Recently Ladd/sold his property for
a. considerable sum ‘and started for the
East with his family,and on the eve of
his departure was arrested by Marshal
Snow of Grass Valley. Itis stated that
the purses to. which Adams is willing-to
swear were found in Ladd’s possession.—
The prisoner was brought to Grass Valley
Nod placed under heavy bonds to appear
before Judge Byrne for examination, The
friends of the defendant aré confident that
he will be. able to vindicate, himself from
the serious charges against him.
A Ricn Strixze.—On Wednesday last,
Leeth & Barton made arich strike on Deer
Creek. They found a quartz! pocket from
which in a few hours they took out over
$600 in gold. This lucky strike was
made near the door of Leath & Co’s cabin
and men had been walking over it for
years. Quite a large number of these
pockets have been found in the last few
years near the mouth of Wood’s Ravine,
and in some instances several thousand
dollars have been found in a pocket of a
. . few inches in diameter. We believe they
are generally made up of decomposed
; quartz. There must be a rich ledge somewhere in that vicinity.
A'Smarr Doa.—A dog owned in this
city exhibits an intelligence that almost
amounts to reason in the performance of
his duty. He has been taught to go from
his master’s residence to his place of business, for the purpose of announcing that
meals are ready, and each day he signifies
tothe owner, by Opening his mouth and
putting his tongue out, that dinner or supper is waiting. Recently he came down
with his message, but the door was fastened. After reconnoitering for some time,
the dog jumped up, and taking the knob
in his mouth unlatched the door and enfered. Such an act would almest. convince one that animals sometimes reason,
=
BoLp RoBBERY.—We learn from the
Grass Valley National that on Tuesday
last Alfred Norris, while on the way from
Colfax to that place, was stopped near the
’ toll gate and robbed of his watch and $60
incoin. The victim Says “the men were
not disguised, and says he will know them
if he sees them again. He says one of the
men lodked like a Mexican, was dressed in
black and had ona Peruvian hat. The
other man-was-apparently an Amcrican,
about 25 or 80 years old. He was also
dressed in black. Norris came into town

arn se REOAN
WALTHAM WATCHES
We claim and are prepared ‘to prove that the
American Watches manufactured at Waltham,
Massachusetts, ate not only equal, but far supetior, to the watches of England, Switzerland and.
France. We also claim that they are CHEAPER
MORE ACCURATE, MORE DURABLE, and
more easily kept in order and repaired than any
other watches in the market.
Because in each one of the very numerons parts
of which a watch is made up, we attain, by me
chanical power, nearly absolute mathematica)
precision and uniformity, making every watch of
any one style atrue copy of its model. ,
. _ This similarity in structure reduces:the cost of
production; it secures uniformity in results; it
perpetuates infallibly any excellence that may be
once achieved, and makes it easy to repair any
injury sustained, or replace $ny_part that may be
lost-or destroyed. — .: ies
In addition to these mechanical advantages,our
Watches are simpler in structure, and therefore
} Stronger, and less likely to be injured than foreign watches.
How they run under the hardest trial watches .
can have, is shown by. the following letters :
PENN. RAILROAD COMPANY.
OFFICE OF-PH®-GENERAL SUPERINTENDENT, )
ALTOONA, Pa., 15th Dec., 1866. ‘
Gentlemen : The watches manufactured by you
have been in use on this railroad for several
years by our enginemen, to whom we furnish
watches as part of our equipment. There are
now some three hundred of them carried on our
line, and we consider them ‘good and reliable
time-keepers. Indeed, I have great satisfaction
in saying your watches give us less trouble, ard
have worn and do wear mich longer without repairs than any watches we have ever had in use .
on this road. As you.are aware, we formerly
trusted to those of English manufacture, of acknowledged good: reputation, but as a clase they
never kept timé as correctly, nor haye they done
In these statements I am sustained by my predecessor, Mr,.Lewis, whose experience extended
Over a series of years. Respectfully,
‘ EDWARD H. WILLIAMS.
General Superintendent
American Watch Co., Waltham.
NEW YORK CENTRAL RAILROAD,
Locomotive DEPARTMENT, Wzar. Division, ‘g
. RocHEstkR, Dec. 24, 1866.“ j.
Gentlemen : I have no hesitation in saying that
I believe the great majority of Locomotive Engineers have found by experience that Waltham
Watches are the most satisfactory of any. for
their uses. They run with the greatest accuracy
and steadiness, notwithstanding the rough riding
of an engine, and asT have hever known one to
wear out they must be durable. I hope to see
the time when Railway Companies will generally
adopt your watches, and furnish them to-allengineers and conductors. In my opinion it would
greatly tend to promote regularity ahd safety.
Yours respectfully,
{ CHARLES WILSON, G. Chief Engineer.
