Julius Poppe, Anderson. Robert Bryoe,8nartanburg. J. A.GrigsbT.Bidgeway. B. A. Scott, Nowherry. E. W. Lawaon, Abbeville. A Wonderful CxjOCK.?A German of Cincinnati has invented a clock which, though much smaller than the celebrated one at Strasburg, is, from its description, much more compli? cated. Woeee, in a glass case, a three story, steeple-shaped olock, four feet wide at the firet story and nino feet high.:/ The movement is plaosd io the first story, on four delioate eolumns, within which swings the pendulum. The second story consists of two tower-like pieces, on the doors of whioh there are two pictures that rep? resent boyhood and early manhood. A tower orowns, as third story, the in? genious structure. A oook, as a sym? bol of Watchfulness, stands on the top, direotly over the portal. When the olook marks the first quarter the door of the left pieoe of the second story opens, and a child issues from the back ground, comes forward to a little bell, gives it one blow and then disap? pears. At the seoond quarter a yooth appears, strikes tbe bell twioe, and then disappears. At the third there oomes a man in his prime; at the fourth we have a tottering old man leaning on a staff, who strikes the bell four times. Each time the door oloses of itself. When the hour? are full the door of the right piece of the second story opens, and Death, as a skeleton, scythe in hand, appears, and marks the hour by striking a boll. Hut it is at the twelfth hont that we have the grand spectacle in the representation of the Day of Judgment. Then, when Death has struck three, blows on the top of the little bell, the cock on the top of the tower suddenly flaps hia wings and orowa in a shrill tone, and after Death has marked tho twelfth hour with his hammer, the cook orowa twice again. Immediately three angels, who stand aa guardians in a central position, raise their trompete in their right hands, (iu their left they hold swords',) and blow a blast toward eaoh of the lonr quarters of the earth. At the last blast the door of tbe tower opens, and the resurrected ohildren of earth appear, while the destroying angels Bink out of sight. Then, sud? denly, Ohrist descends, surrounded by angels. On his left there is an angel carrying the seales of justice, on bis right another carries the Book of Life, wbich opens to show the Alpha and Omega?tbe beginning and tbe end. Ohrist waves his hand, and instantly the good among 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 stands the devil, radiant with fiendish delight?ha can hardly wait for the final senteuoe of those who fall to him, but, In obedienee to the com? mand of the central figure, he with? draws. The figure of Ohrist laiaes its hand again with a threatening mien, and the accursed sink down to the rselaiaof the) Satante majesty. Then Ohrist blesses the ohosen few, and they draw near to him. j Finally, we hear a cheetfal chime of bells, during which Ohrist rises, surrounded by his angels, until her disappears, ana the portal oloees.? A complete drama is here rep? resented, without tbe aid of a homan hand. The v movements are steady, calm end- noiseless, with the exoeption of the threatening gestures of the figure of Christ and the movements of Lucifer, who darts across the scene with lightning rapidity. Of course, the peculiar notion of these fignres is intentional on the pat t of the artibt, and adds greatly to the effect. A sharp nose is not half so bad as a sharp tongue. ITO THE READING PUBLIC!
