?WEDNESDAY MORNING, JANUARY 23, 1807. [ron Tire iraws.] TICK MISSING SELLS. We roles tho boils, with their tones sublime. And tho mellow notes o? St Michael's chime, For tho Babb- -u' come ss they carno ol y oro. But the Sa',oath bolls arc heard no moro. A stillness reigns o'er tho city now. And tho prayerful throngs in silence bow. When tno holy light of tho Sabbath mom Is ushered In with a rosy dawn. No music floats on tho passing gale. But the missing bolls toll a sad, sad tale For their strains woro lost in tho cannon's roar. And tho Sabbath bcUs arc bellt no more. They muttered loud, with a smoky breath. On thc battle-field, 'mid the scones of death, Tho samo soft bolls that had sounded praise From the steeplo tops, in our peaceful days. Oh I soon nu y the solemn silunco cooee. And the bells re-echo tho notes of peaco : May our hearts once more with their music thrill. And beat responsive to Love, and .. Good Will." CACIOS. Talcing tho Nineteenth Century Down rt IPeg. The ROT. HUGH STOWELL BROWN, of Liverpool, gave a lecture in Dumfries last month on "Tho Good Old Times." We extract tho following pas? sage: Men did aa wondorful intellectual feats 2000 and 8000 years ago as aro done in the present time. Xi' it be true that man was only un improved gorilla, ' we don't find that he allowed a greater resernhlance to it then than now; for his own part, he holieved there were more monkeys now than tijou, and pos? sibly the gorilla might "not so much represent the race from which wo sprang os thc destiny to which we are htstemng. Abraham he believed to bo aa thoroughbred a gentleman as any in tho nine? teenth century; Jacob as good a man of business as they would find on tho Liverpool Exchango; while Joseph was a statesman and MoBeB a legis? lator, worth a great deal more in their time than all our Lords, Commons and Town Councils put together. In our own country, in tho 16th and 17th centu? ries, there were hundreds of men who,' for brain* and the use of thom, would stand comparison with any that adorned this century. Wo bad sonic splendid remains of architecture in thia country, and wo vainly attempted to equal tho edifices of which they are the ruins. The very best we have are only bits taken from edifices erected hundreds of years ago. Our mechanical appliances for build? ing are far superior to what could havo beon known to the people of the elden times, b it they reared up buildings that aro the just aator.isnient of the clriiiioe "uililf olia TTIUWU no ourmot equal. W e may copy them, but we may copy a pointing of an old master, but, till we strike out some thing ol our own as good as tho Parthenon or Strasburg Cathedral, we must knock down to the old timen. We think we do all things on a grand scale, and a Cockney will boast that the lar-rest th oat ein London will hold 4000 people; 30,000 would scarce? ly have filled tho Colossieum of Rome. St. George's Hall, Liverpool, ia justly regarded as a very mag? nificent building, but it was only a reproduction of a very little bit of the Bath? of Diocletian, which were neartt a quarter of a mile square, thc whole structure being a very great d al largei than our Houses of Parliament. Some moderns said if the peo pl 3 of the ancient times could revisit the earth, they would be very much astonished. He had no doubt they would, but ho would be sorry if they die in cuse they should only laugh at us. Possibly our great-fathers who lived in that stupidest of all centuries-tho lBlh-would be astonished, but not the mon of 2000 y eira ago. We thought we hod made great progress in sani? tary science, but ho believed we were at a disad vantago compared with tho ancients. In Rome alone there were 800 public baths, and it no vor liai more than hall the population of London. Tho\ bad bot, cold and vapor baths,-and something like our Turkish bath, and, what was better still the people constantly used them. Wo boasted o: our civil engineering, but it was questionable if il had advanced much since the time when the Ro mans built their aqueducts, which were carried ever ? alleys, supported on thousands of arches, ol tunnelled for milos through the solid rock, while tho greatest scientific skill was required to give the supply a proper grade. There was a great deal of talk about that won? derful *riuniph. .of genius, bringing tho water o; Loch Katrine to Glasgow, but tho quantity ol water delivered to every inhabitant of Romo was ten times the water supply of London. An abun? dant supply of water was a special character stic of ancient cities. We often read of tho inhabit? ants of a besieged city suffering from hunger, bul rarely, if ever, from thirst. And there was nc overcrowding. Nineveh contained GOOdlCO inhab itante, but tLe population of London was, for itt area, five times as dense as that of Nineveh. Th? ancients did not allow the dead to be buried wi tim tile walls of their cities-a practice only beginning to be abolished with us. In point of cleanliness also, they were more careful than we are. He rea? the other day of some people taking cholera fron washing the clothes of persons who had died o that malady. According to the Mosaic law thesi clothes should have been buried. Moses would not allow people to live in houses that were un healthy, but it was no use turning the people on and allowing tho house to stand; he knew peopli would live in it if it remained, and so he said ..Bown with every stick and stone of it." . in the matter of sewerage, the Romans were sn perior to us. The city was built on aro li OB for Un purpose of complete sewerage, and thore yet re mains a sewer in Rome so wide that a cart kiadec with hay might pass through it Excellent one well contrived d airs had been discovered in Nine Teh and other towns. The refuge of the cities wai burned in the open plains. The hand-looms o: thirty-thousand years ago produced cloth of ai fine a quality, in point of texture, color, and stylo as we can produce, und the Hindoos, and some o the Africans, knew the process of manufacturing iron and steel, which led them to look: with con tempt, and to reject as rotten, the specimens o - these metals which we sent them. In all thesi points the past compared favo?ably with the pres - saut. No doubt the present had its achievements. Ii bad the printing press and railroads, telegraphs, and extensive manufactories. He bel-, e ved that itt superiority consisted more in the greater po wei of production, and in the wider diffusion of wenltl and knowledge than obtained in the past, rathei than in the intrinsic excellence, or boanty, or bril? liancy, or depth of what it did or achieved. It ox celled, ii- tho ex ent to which it had investigated, the laws and operations of nature, and applied them to the increase of human power over matter. Before, however, they boasted themselves too much of modern progress, they ought to inquire whether tho progress made was commensurate ?with their opportunities. He very much doubted if there were any room for boasting. Looking at the wretchedness, profligacy, drunkenness, and general degradation, which characterized our large cities, he could see nothing worse in the days ol the past; and, instead of boasting, it behooved this age to confess with shame that it had advanced so little, and that in some things it had not advanced at all. lt was said that the upper classes' did not drink now so much as they used to do, which might be true,, but he was afraid the great bulk ol the people were quito as intemperate as ever they were, if they ever were worse than they are now, Which he coald hardly imagine. Old and New Style. BOW THE ELEVEN SASS CAME IO BE DROPPED. Many persons know that there is a difference oj eleven days between Old and New Style-that is, ' that what three hundred years ago would have been the 1st of January, is now the 12th-but bow this was bi ought about is not so generally known. The following from the Cincinnati Conimercial will explain the matter : How it was .managed before the Christian Era, to bring the year round to its proper beginning, and square the differ once of timo, is not clear. Probably they fixed upon a certain lanai revolution in connection with the seasons, and did not mind the fractions of hours and minutes that afflicted *hx> ?intro i?ycnol-u about *Ko ?me of Julius C838ar. That imperial Roman decreed, on the "strengm of computations mudeby an Alexandrian philosopher, that evsiy fourth year should consist of 366 days, to make np for the odd .hours of the other three years, and by his arrangement the additional day was conferred on February, probably because it bad the fewest days of any month in the year. Bat the calculation of the Alexandrian was found to be at fault. A day every fourth year was too much by eleven minutes, ten seconds, s nd three-tenths of a second-a small matter, yon may think, but of considerable account in the long run. The natural time Tell behind the reckoning, ar.d how^agsuch the difference amounted to after the lapse of centuries is shown by a singla fact. From ii the time of the Council of Nice, in 835, when the vernal equinox fell on the 21st of Inarch, Pope Gregory, in 1582, discovered that the over-reckon? ing, according to tho Julian arrangement, amounted to ten "days; and brought tho'vernal equinox on the 11th of March. And so the error had to be corrected to harmonizer dates with 'toe equinox. The Pope decreed that the 5th of Ootobor.that year should be reckoned as the 15th, and to keep the year " O K" for tho future (the surplus, being eighteen hours, thirty-seven minutes and ten seconda in a century) every centennial year that could not be divided by four should not be bissex? tile, tous dropping the extra day three times'every four hundred years. In countries where the Pope's word was law this method of reckoning was adopted and it ia to bo regretted that it was not univer? sally accepted. But the Protestants in those days had aa strong prejudices against the Roman Pontiff as they hayo now, and did not toke his suggestion l^dly- ra>at business had the Pope tomeddte with the year any how ? Bot the regulation was founded upon sound ac tronomical calculations, and is now prevalent hi all civilized countries except Russia. Great Brit? ain, however, did not adopt it till 1752, and still re? tains tho old stylo in the accounts of her Majesty's Treas.'ry. In 1752 tho difference in reckoning wbic'iPopo Gregory had discovered amounted to eleven days, and so on act of Parliament was pass? ed by virtue of which the 3d of September of that year was reckoned as the Hth. It is ont of theso changes in reckoning that, what are called tho N-w Style and the Old. Style have arisen-a difference that we still have to observe if we have correspon? dence at St. Petersburg, or dealings with the Treasury of Great gfitaln. "".*?. . It is f however, aSatisfactory reflection that the yean oro now so arranged that no further changes will be necessary for thousands of years to come. The 1st of January of each year will find the sun ; and stars in their pl ices and "on time" with so trivial a variation that the reckoning will not have to be changed for a period so distant that we need ? not bother our heads no more about it than about the theory of the French stroan, who assumes that thetirr.e wi 1 come when the moon .will fall into the ca' th, the earth into the Bun, and finally all the stellar universo into one compact globe of mat teTjIeaving space literally void and darkness. ? These years, whose duration is calculated to tho ttaction of a second, go fast enough with the most of us, and bring with them a? toe issues of life and death. Esch ono bringa us nearer to tho silent ?mai from whoso nrystorioua shores neither the vetee of warnlng. nor entreaty, nor love, nor afleo tion comes back to us. Wo tend that way by a law of hie as irresistible as that which governs tho procession of tho stars, and holds m boautiful order tho universal franio of things. No matter, if wo so order our lives that we can serenely faco tho fate that awaits us. conscious that we have fou-'ht tho good fight of an honest, a useful, and "an ??onorablo life.

That staid and respectable journal tho Auburn Adcerliser says : -, A gentleman from tho West was recontly married in this city, and retired to rest in tho bridal cham? ber of the Blancquo Hotel in company with his blooming brido, whoso rosy cheeks, surpassing tito rich gloom of Pomona's choices; brilliant ovos vicing in sparkle with tho diamond's lustre; tooth excomug the Orient "pearl: lips of chorry plump? ness and color; trim-built limbs eclipsing tho statuesque proportions of sculptured marble; flow? ing tresses of moro than Hyperion luxuriance and g.ossinoss of texture; in short-whoso e\ orv grace, combined with full-chestod healthfulness and fasci? nating appearance generally, had won him rapidly at tho previous ovoning's ball, to the subsequent calling in of a clergyman, and the investment of a flU greenback in mutrimony. An alarm of firo with in tho hotel aroused thc sloeping bridegroom tu tho small hours of the morning, and without dis? turbing his fair partnor, ho bounced out to tho hall and found the alarm to be a falso ono. Re? turning to his chamber ho turned' on tho gas, when_horrible to relate-he discovered, as ho supposod, tho mortifying fact that he had mista? ken thc room. Too much bewildered to collect his disturbed facultios, bis oyes mechanically took ina heterogeneous display of horrors promiscuously strowu about the apartmont, in chairs, on tables ano tho floor, and susponded to the bed posts, which caused him to suspect ho had entered the den ol somo practical anatomist; for upon tho bed, clearly defined by tho light of tho now blazing gas lav the shape of an almost fleshless skeleton with bare skull and only one dull, browless, lash less ?ye; toothless, pale-lip jed mouth; wxinklet brow and s.inkon cheek; shrunken limbs and con sumptivo thorax. About the promises lay fragment! of uumanitv, to all appearance-here an eye, freut from its socket, but glassy and sparkling; there t grinning row of snow-whito teeth, detached fron tho jaws, but with the gums still adhering; a masi of human hair, just as it might have bean scalpel from the scull; two fragments of human limbs con stituting what appeared to be the fleshy part, o calf of tho leg; also what seemed to be a femol brist, or chost, still moving as in the act o respiration; wbilo near by were tho inns portions (apparently artificial) of two huma cheeks; a saucu of rouge, seven bottles of cos meties, hair dyes, pearl powder, a stay lacs in si: fragmonts, a box bearing tho labol "patent fais calves," anothor 1.bolled "plumpers for th h?oks," still anothor marked "heavers," a set < "patent oyebrows and lashes," wore groupe about, and added to tho light which was slowl breaking over tho -myoiifioa i?iacSioum, wm "po,, <u>??uy approaching tho bod, succeeded 1 tracing amid tho bones and parchment there e: tended what was left (after substracting tl machinery) of his lately blooming bride. Crowi ing the whole lot of traps ann. bones into a satchc he rushed ta coroner and debvered up the cfefiri not even waiting to attend the inquest. Tho no: train West bore tho horrified widower to his hom . where he is now living under vows of etern -colibacy. _' _ L MATRIMONY AS A MATTES OF MONET-m ITALY. In Genoa there aro regular marriage brokers, wi have memorandum books filled with tho names ? the marriageable girls of the different clo38c i with notes ot their figures, personal attraction ; fortunes and other circumstances. Those broke go a jout endeavoring to make arrangements tho samo off-hand, mercantile manner which thi would bring toboar upon a business transactdc I and whon they succeed, they get a commission i two or throe per cent, upon the portion, with sui extras or bonuses as may be voluntarily bestow? by the party. Marriage at Genoa is thus otb . simply a matter of business calculation, general , settled by the parents or relations, who draw i ? tho contract before thc partios have seen one a - other; and it is only when everything else is t r ranged, and a few days rrovious to tho mania ' ceremony, that the future husband is introduc f to his partner for life. Should he find fault wi I her manners or appearance, he may annul the cc . tract, on condition of defraying the brokerage a [ any other expenses incurred. j FURNITURE FASHIONS IN PARTS.-The Paris oom i pondent of tho Queen says: "The newest fashi in Paris, where even tho fashion of furnitt - changes completely every two or three years, is F have dining-room chairs no longer covered wi r morocco or moleskin, but with dark cloth, t i walls equally hung with dork-colored velvet pap . or cloth, and relieved by candelabras, behind wfii : arc attached plates of metal or of glass, the wh< - being highly 'becoming,' as the well-informed a t well-spoken dealer tola me, to ladies in full dre > whose brilliancy the contrasting dark shades i . off. ?Some houses confine their manufacture i i lirely to certain periods: so at a certain dealei i who had some magnificent specimens of Lo i XHL furniture (imitated), I was told that r nover designed or worked later than the Louis '. * style, and there much of the carving wis m ey 1 more wood, though not of so fine a grain, and i i quite so expensive. It is impossible to give m f eiate-minded English persons an idea of the > tent and universal spread of extravagance in i L way of furniture in this country." t THE "FATAI, Horns."-At a ball recently giver 3 Paris, all who had a taste for intellectual fun w : invited to a social toa drinking at eleven in private apartments, and those who did so woro - join in a game invented by the Empress hers j No jewels and no ornaments were allowed to rom - in the hair ; state was to be forgotten. 1 When tea was over tho names of all prose 1 written on small squares, were thrown in a b - from T.bich, sac a malice, the youngest lt i present drew forth a name.

For twe . years after he arrives at maturity, his fangs i talons show no signs of decay ; but after that . gradually becomes feeble, Iiis teeth fail him, i lie grows "cubbish." He is no longer a match [ the tremendous buffalo ; he is overmatched o by the peaceful ox, so he prowls around the ca ! kraals, and snatches a lamb or a kid, just as did whoa be set out with his parents nearly thi years before. A woman or a child at night sha the same fate.

Tho New York Herald, of Saturday, the 19th inst, says : The gold market has been excited to-dey, and after opening at 137?, it advanced to 137?, from which point there was a steady decline to 136?-the closing quota? tion on the street. Tho borrowing demand was active, nd loans were made without interest and as high as l-32d per cent, per diem in favor of the lender. The general impression is that the premium will continue to advance, in view of tho impeachment of the President, tho commercial Indebtedness of the country to Europe, and thc contingencies arising from the fact of six hun? dred millions ot' American securities being held there. Tho great check upon the advancing tendency of the market at present is the tact of the Treasury holding about seventy millions of gold, exclusive of certificates of deposit. Should tho Government be unwise enough to reduce its reserve, the speculators will be tho gainers, and the premium will riso all the higher, in the present condi? tion of affairs, because of such sales. Ii gold is to bc j sold, however, it is better that it should be done public? ly than secretly, and therefcre the bill authorizing itt public sale, now before the Committee on Ways and Means, should bo passed in preference to allowing the Secretary of the Treasury, as at present, to exert a dis? cretionary power in tho matter. But it would be stUl bettor for Congress to legislate in favor o' tho Govern? ment retaining all its gold up to two hundred mlllious, the moral effect of the balance in .the Treasury being greater than double tho amount elsewhere. The money market was easy at seven per cent at call to the Stock Exchange, with a few exceptions at six ox Government securities.

Among the chief points of excellence of the Ohlcker lng Pianos, of which speak the renowned artista in thulr congratulatory testimonials to the Messrs.

They are unrivalled for their singing quail ties and for the harmonious roundness of their tone. There is a perfect homogeneity throughout all the registers. The upper notes are remarkable for a clearness and purity which I do uot find lu any other instrument, while the base ls distinguished for power without harshness, and for a magnificent sonority.

' I have never heard a tone so perfect; lt yields every expression that ls needed in muslo, and its quality is capable of change to meet every sentiment.
