If Usher and Cal met are authorities on the age of the world, then the time that has elapsed since God said **Let there be light,'' numbers 5370 years, making a difference between Jewish chronolo? gy of 220 years. Hobbs asserts that the crea? tion occurred 5411 years before Christ, which, if true, makes the terrestrial sphere upon which we live, move and have our being, at the venerable and ripe old age of 6181 years-651 years older than by Jewish reckoning. The New Year Day commenced, according to the Reform Jewish authorities, yesterday evening, and will terminate to-night. The orthodox Jews observe two days in order to make sure of observing the right day. The Reformers claim that, Inasmuch as there are ten days be? fore the day ol Atonement, lt ls unnecessary to observe two days of the beginning of the year, when the first day observed Is reckoned among the ten that precede the Atonement. That U you commence to count from the sec? ond day. then the day of Atonement must be one day later; and the orthodox Jews, as well as the Reformers, do not disagree as to the day of Atonement. CITY TASES.-The attention of persons in? terested ls called to the notice of City Treasu? rer Thomas, which appears elsewhere.

Before the meeting oncluded, there was general confusion, the rowd dividing itself Into cliques, and each ne cheered for its favorite-Bowen, Elliott, leLarge or Leslie, as the case might be. The esult of the meeting will cause the putting ut of a new county ticket, ^opposition to the icket of the Alken-Barnwell clique. THE COUNTY TREASURER AND THE CHARQES LGAINST HIM,-THE NEWS has mentioned that nagent of Governor Scott was sent here to xamine the books of Mr. Wm. R. Stoll, the ounty treasurer. Daddy Cain, through whose nfluence lt ls believed Mr. Stoll secured his ippolntment, is very indignant, and says that 'certain gentlemen who have been buying up ounty treasury checks, at a discount of ten nd twenty-five per cent, till they have Ailed heir pockets with thousands of dollars, are ow foremost In charging Mr. Stoll with cor uptlon, when they, too, have offered large tibes to induce him to pay their bills first." i addition to his comments. Cain presents a correct statement of the amounts collected ad paid out by the treasurer," as follows: ?ptember 22d, 1370. Amount county tax to he lid for 1869 as per the tax books, $120,317 76; nount of county tax paid In trom the Isl ily to thia date, $69.709 18-leaving not paid, ?0,608 28. This is for the city alone.

REFORM CLUB OP WARD "_The working committee of Ward 7, Reform Club, are re? quested to meer, punctually, at half-past 7 o'clock, this evening, at their hall, in Nassau street. As AURORA BOREALIS, splendid for this lat? itude, made its appearance on Saturday night, lasting several hours, and fading away at half past 10 o'clock. It occupied the horizon from N. N. tv. to E. K. E. A broad horizontal belt ot white light rested on the horizon; above this was a narrower belt of pale green. From these belts, blood-red perpendicular bands, of variable intensity, shot np towards the zenith; three ot these bands west of north, and the other two north of east. The effect was strik? ing enough to cause an alarm of fire about 10 o'clock. The light was visible last evening, but was very faint. THAT CARGO OF RAILS.-Diligent inquiry shows that no vessel to arrive at Charleston lr om Europe has rails for the Macon and Au? gusta Road. Savannah, then, is the alterna? tive port of entry; and while we cannot see the wisdom of consigning material for the comple? tion of a rival road for transportation over the railroad whose trade is to be affected at the very busiest season of its freight year by the deliver}- of rails lor the effective working of the new road, still this strange course may have been adopted in this instance. Assum? ing, then, for the sake of argument, that the four hundred tons of rails, as alleged, have been shipped, and that Savannah has been se? lected as the port of entry, let us Inquire what the chances are under these unbuslness-like circumstances. The business community of Macon have been, for year3, tinder heavy tolls to a single rail line. They have been, for ten years, struggling for free trade. After all sorts of difficulties and money outlays, they are now within "five miles of rail" of the reali? zation of their hopes; but it turns out that the 400 tons alleged to have been provided are overdue for six weeks. Inquiry develops that lt has not been shipped to this, its natural port. The inference, if shipped at all, points to Savannah, aud, if to Savannah, the only means of transportation is by a road whose income may be affected by the laying down of this 400 tons of rail. Assuming the iron en? tered at the Savannah Customhouse, say by Christmas (?) how many tons per week will And freightage ovCi the Central Road ? And may we not reasonably calculate, from the expe? rience ot the past, that one carload of seven tons will be the maximum weekly delivery ? We think Macon will have to either assist her? self, or stay under hack another cotton year. The essential feature, the keystone of the | whole affair, seems to be a premeditated pro- i crastination. which will Inst a good while yet, i unless the placid, but very stagnant waters i are roughly stirred. Wanted, at once, 400 tons old rails : ' TO THE UNION REFORM VOTERS OF CHARLESTON COUNTY.

They complain or no speci? fic disease; they suffer no positive pain, but they have no relish for anything which affords mental or sensuous pleasure to their more robust and energetic fellow-beings. In nine cases cut of ten this state of lassitude and torpor arises from a morbid stomach. Indi? gestion destroys the energy of both mind and 1)0 dy.

We were all suffering from the 'national disease'-Indiges? tion; and all agreed on one point, viz: that noth? ing agreed with us. We discussed medicines. One had tried blue pills, another extract of dandelion, another almost every variety of purgatives. In fact, we had made apothecaries' shops of our In? sides; but nothing had done us any good. I said I wondered If your PLANTATION BITTERS would help us any. After some talk we concluded to try it, and meet again at the same place that day month to compare notes. We did so. It was a Jovial meeting, I can tell you. We scarcely knew one another. Each had gained flesh; each re? ported a good appetite, sound sleep, an easy stomach and a regular habit of body. The change was marvellous. It was agre"-' to report the facts to you, and I was appointed to make this communication.
