The number of watch of various kinds nnd size nnd vnlue which are now seen In the windows of the jewel er-watchmakers of Paris reminds a correspondent of l'Kclnire of the watch which once wns the property of Robes pierre, and which the correspondent saw at an exhibition of curios. It surely should have long ago found its place In the Carnnvnlet. The watcn was In the shape of a pear ana of trie size of one, and wns made of silver. It opened In tho center, the face be ing In flie lower section, while the top section wns ornamented with penr leaves wrought In silver, the size of a pear, arid a good deal heavier, is plainly Indicative of some what bizarre tastes on the pnrt of the "Friend of the People."
