"W-.T A .. ? lt -Wo have in thia city 75 genuine and wholesale traders, b?aiden a large army of retail dealers nud others ?who aro ovory year beaten in their busi? ness by the bogus watch importer, backed by about GO dealers in the goods. Not. Jess than 100,000 of these bogus and oroide watches were sold in thia country lost year, and, as the demand is continu? ally increasing, the number disposed of thia current year will probably exeeed thi^,;r. Their shops are usually stored away in little hallways, in dark base? ments, or up two or three fights of stairs in some, large building where there is likely to ba a great deal of trafila on other accounts. Tho extent of their profit is almost fabulous, for, being in an illegitimate business, conceived and carried in deception' and fraud, these dealers hare no scruples abont the means of disposing of their wares. Indeed, so extensive is the business transacted by some of ih? bogus watoh dealers, that one of them on Broadway boldly pro? claims the character of his trade, and yet, we understand, sells from $30,000 to $40,000 worth a monto. Poor humanity 3a to be duped and swindled, and like [rifling QE drinking ur,any other pas }h, when.thia desir? to gain a $1,000, "Hiy investing ? $1,000 in a lottery, or " is tho same thing differently ap " tho passion to. get a $250 gold Jbi' for,$l in paper, grows upon a j, ho nc (nally .places himself in a position'to bo swindled. ?EHE posT OF. TUE WAR.-Commissioucr m his report presented to Con? gress, gives au. .estimate of the cost of the hits war. The Government spout in war expenses, and expeuses growing out offtho war, down to June 30th, 1869, $4,171,914.4.98. . This excludes what the administration 'would have cost had there been-no war, and may be called the net cost jto tile Government of the rebellion. To this, however, must be added a num? ber; of items, whieh Mr, Wells gives thus: Pensions, capitalized, at eight years ptirohase, $200,000,000; increase of State debts, mainly on war accounts, if 1-3(3, - 000,000; County, city and town indebt? edness, increased on account of the war, (estimated) $200,000,000; expenditures of fla-ftMb Counties, cities and towns on account of the war, not represented by funded debt, (estimated) $600,000.000; estimated loss to the loyal States from tho diversion and suspension of iudustry, and the reduction of the American ma? rine and carrying trade, $1,200,000,000; estimated direct expenditures and loss of property by the Confederate; States by reason of the war, $2,700,000.000. This makes'a total of loss by the war to the whole country of $9,000,000,000. To which the New York Post adds: We spent and wasted iu the war money enough to build ninety Davien ship ca? nals, or to build a hu mired Pacific rail? roads, or nine times as much os would double-track every railroad in the United States. NOVEL BUT EFFICIENT.-A casual visi? tor at one of our excellent city schools was somewhat surprised, tho other day, to see a boy standing on the floor, hold? ing in his mouth a piece of lath about six inches long. Our iuformaut gazed at the novel spectacle iu wondering silence; the boy was as solemn as an owl, aud his eye wandered scrutinizingly around the room, while the quiet scholars scarcely glanoed at him. At length the youth called the attention of tho teacher to the fact that a certain scholar was whispering. The delinquent was called up and relieved tho lath holder, aud be? gan looking for some offender to take his place. Wo recommend this method to teachers troubled with noisy schools; it certainly worked to a churni in the cass above mentioned. This is the latest plan out and decidedly the best. j Peoria Transcript, A Gentile in Salt Lafts who hus mar? ried a Mormon lady is in some dread of the "blood atonement." He describes the peculiar institution as follows: "Well, these fellows got a grudge nguiusta mau, and they make ont that he's done some? thing he can't atone for except with blood, and then some of tho ciders have a revelation that the man's got to bo got out of the way, and thoy go for him. 'Taint no use, then. These revelations do the business for him. Man's found dead, throat cut, or something of the sort, and that's the last of it. Nobody knows anything about it, and if you critch 'em at it 'taint no use-they all stand by each other." DROWNED.-Oliver B. Brunner, on Tuesday night last, got up out of his bed, and undressed as he was, walked out of the house and across the field, about half a mile, into Bull Swamp, and into Bull Swamp Creek, where he was drowned. The unfortunate young man was subject to epileptio fits, and it is sup? posed that he was suffering from one of these fits whon ho was drowned. Wm. R. Treadwell, Esq., Coroner, held an inquest over the body yesterday morn? ing. The vordiot of the jury was that deceased came to his death by accidental drowning.-Orangeburg Hews. Terre Haute is the scene of a veritable Rape of the Look. A young girl was seized on one of its streets just after nightfall, and nearly all of her bair was cut from her head. BU Aiuuuy mun UUVCrilSeS that li thc fellow who took his now hat from the barber-shop, and left an old one, don't return it, he will send tho chap's wife a letter, which was found in tho lining of tho old one, directed to a certain female not related to the family. INQUEST.-Mr. Coroner liol lom an held an inquest over tho body of Hobt. M. Snipes, a youth about fourteen yen rs of age, on the Oth inst. The verdict of the jury was, that deceased came to his death by drinking an unreasonable quantity of liquor.-Keowee Couria'. The Tennessee Legislature hus repealed the law of the last Assembly providing for the payment of loyal men for losses sustained during the war. There were 42,000 claims, amounting in the aggre? gate to $6.000,000. Not a cent of it will now bo paid. FIZZLED.-The Deistical Congress at Naples proved a "dead failure" and broke up in an irreconcilable row among its own members. At Des Moines, Iowa, it takes the dea? cons all day Monday to paste together the shin-plasters put into thc collection plate on Sunday. Voodooism is increasiug about Mem? phis, nearly every negro scamp that is arrested, on being searched, showing n *'Voudoo" charm on his person. Cousins in New Hampshire aro "mar rying up a lot ahead," because after thc 20th of December it will be wicked, nc cording to law.
