A Wonpebf?l, CiiOcx.?A German of Cincinnati has invented a clock which, though much smaller than the celebrated one at Strasburg, is, from ita description, much mere compli? cated. We see, in a glass oase, a three story, steeple-shaped alook, four feet wide at the first story and. nine feet bigh.;j The movement is placed in the first atory, on four delicate Columns, within, which Swings the pendulum. The second story consists of two towor-like pieces, on the doors of which therear? two pic tores that rep? resent boyhood and early manhood. A tower crowns, as third story, the in? genious structure. A cook, as a sym? bol of Watohffnlneflfl, stands on the top, direottj over the portal. When the clock marks the first quarter the door of the left piece of tho second story opens, and a child issues from the beck gr?ai^ couteejorward to a little bell? gives it one Now and then disap? pears. At the second qusrter a youth appears, strikes the bell twice, and then disappear*. At the third there comes a man-in hie prime; at the fourth wa have a tottering old man leaning on a ataff, who strikes the bell fonr times. Eaidixtiaa the, door closes of itself. Wllett We$inrs are full the door of the tight pffece of tho second story opens, and:/Death, ae a skeleton, scythe in bend, eppesrs, and marks the hour by striking a bell. But it is at thejwetfth -hoar, that we have the grand spectacle in the representation of the Pay of Judgment. Then, when top of ?elittle bell, the cock on the top of the tower Suddenly flaps his wings .and crows in a shrill tone, and after X>eaU\ has, marked the twelfth boar Wftn his hammer, tho cock crows twice again. Jkimodiately three angels, who sUtnd as guardians in a central position, raise. tJjeir trumpets in their right hands. (19 thejr left they hold swordijiand blow a bluet toward eaoh of the l?ur quarters of the earth. At the last West .the door of the tower' opens, afati the resurrected children of earth appear, while the destroying angela sink'?nt of iright. Then, sud? denly, Chrialj descends, surrounded by angels. On .bis' left there is an angel carrying the scales of justice, on his right another carries the Book of Life, which men* to show the Alpha and Omega?4be beginning and the end. Christ waves his -band, and instantly Ihn good smong the resurrected are separated from the wicked, the former going to the right and the lat? ter to the left. The Archangel Michael salutes the good,, while on -the other side elaade the devil, radiant with fiendish delight?he, oan hardly wait for the final sentence of those who fall to him, bnt; In obedience (o the com? mand of the een traf-Ago re, he with? draws. The Ago re of Ohribt laisas its hang again with a ?jreeteni?g mien, and the aoooreed sink down to the reelssao! 4b? Satanic majesty. Then Ohrist blosses the chosen few, and they j surrooafded by hie angels, rs, and the portal j drama is here rep t the hid of a hnman ante are steady, Agare t Laoifer*. vwMoi darts ?etoss the scene wirhr hg*tixinr, rapidity. Of course, the peculiar action of these figures is intenlionsl eti the part of the artist, and adds greatly to tho effect. S Vi*V Ut i??.
