Close by Market street—now Broad-
11 way—lived and prospered a baker, tbs
first man that ever baked New-Year
cakes—iu fact, the inventor of them.
The name of our friend was Volckert
Jan Pieteraen Van Amsterdam, com
monly known as Baas. He was Dutch
from his large feet to bis round bald
head, ami had no respect for any one or
anything that was not Dutch. He whs
u regular attendant at the old Dutch
church, but, nevertheless, in constant
fear of Iteing bewitched. His wife,
Maritje ? was economical even to saving
the ]wrings of her nails, and his ginger
bread babies were always made in imi
tation of his children. It wss New-Ycar
eve, 1655, and Baas was in his shop
dealing out cakes for small pieces of
money, called wnmpuin. He had taken
an extra glass of mm in honor of 8t.
Xickolaua. when he heard a sharp rap.
and in walked as ugly on old woman as
ever he had sot his eves on.
"I want a dozen New-Year-cookies,’’
she screamed.
" Veil, den, you ncedu - sbeak so loud.”
replied Baits. "Duyjrel! I ain’t leaf,
tlen.”
" I want a dozen,” screamed Ihe old
woman, "and here is only twelve. ”
"Veil,' den, nud vhat de duyvel is
dwalf but a dozen?” said the baker.
" I tell you I want one morel ” she
shrieked.
" Veil, den,”* taid he, “yon may co to
de duyvel und get anodoer; you von’t
get it here.”
From this time on our baker's wife
and hiihself were made miserable. Their
money and cookies wure taken away by
invisible hands; their bread either rose
out of their sight or sank into theetrth;
their famous brick oven was torn down,
and i>oor Baas pelted with his own
bricks; Maritje became deaf; Bans was
black and blue from-head to. toe; and
such a life as he .ed whs purgatory.
Thrice the old woman aujH*im*d., and
lliriee was she sent to "de duyvel.” Aud
tit last, in his agony, Bturs bethought
himself of Ht. Ni^kaiutis, who advised
him, on hearing of bis troubles, when he
counted a dozen to oTTint thirteen.

It has hUvhvs been thought, by read
ers of the daily payers, that New York
had u tail sharp of crime;’ bat it appears
that the place has never been permitted
to show its real criminal strength, on
aecouni of a law which makes it.a crime
to bo a witness. It apjtears that when a
witness, or a probable witness, ia dis
covered, who has any knowledge of a
criminal transaction, ho is at once ar
rested and plftcod in the "house of de
tention," which is nothing less than a
prison and from which ho can only l>e
released njsni buil. In this place wit
nesses are sometimes kept for months,
aud even years, while the criminal -him
self is out on 1 null It will be seen, thero-
fore, tluut tiro iieuulty against any one
for making a complaint, or giving in
formation that a crime has been com
mitted, is very severe,*and by this means
much of the crime committed in New
York is kept out of the courts and not
made a luudeii of. expense upon tho peo
ple. Strangers in New York, who have
had their pockets picked or been robbed,
cau secure—justice only by going to
lirisoii Uuahselves for a few months,
while their iwsailant ^s out on
busily and industriously^engaged inpick-
uig |M>ckets enough to. fpe-ja lawyer to

does it come at last that the poor victim
is ready to fall on his knees before .the
man who 1ms roblxul him, and implore
him to be merciful and release him from
prison. But pick pockets, as a class, are
a hard-hearted lot, aud usually spurn the

Obelisks. .
Ths Homans had s possum for obe
lisks, removing the one now in” New
York, and the one in London, from He
liopolis and erecting them before the
Cmssreust of Alexandria. Here is an
account of an bbelihk greater than ours ;
The great obelisk which now adorns
the piazza of St. John Latsran, at Borne,
was originally set up l>efore the Temple
of Amen at Heliopolis. - jt is of red
granite, and as it now stands it to 108
Feet 7 inches high, and its faces are re-
sjiefctivelv 9 feet 8j inches and 9 feet
wide at the Itase ; one of the bases is
slightly convex, and it has l>een calcu
lated to weigh 455 tons. The Persians,
the Greeks and the Homans allowed it
to remain in the place it was originally
designed for, but on the establishment
of Christianity Constantine the Great,
intending it for the adornment of his
new capital in the Fist, remo\ed it to
Alexandria alntut 300 A. D. This inten
tion he was unable to carry out, but it
was brought from Egypt by 1 vis success
or, Constant ins, w ho rc-civctcd it in the
Cmcus Maximus. A ship was Ittfilb fir
eonvey the obelisk to Borne ; 300 rowers
tugged the huge trireme and its ponder
ous burden ueroHrt the wntem of the Med
iterranean fi> the shores of Ostht. Ar
rived there the olveiisk was slid off from
the dock of the galley on a low cart sup
ported by rollers instead of wheels, kud
it waif then dragged and pushed through
the gates of Ostia into the Circus Maxi
mus. “All that now remained to be
done,” records the historian, AulniLums
Marcelliuus, “ was to set it upright,
which they hardly exjteotod to accom
plish. Large lieafns of wood, were plant
ed upright and raised to a dangerous
altitude, resembling a forest of machine'
ry. To these were attached long, thick
ropes, which, from their w eight and ten-'
sion, appeared but as so many slender
threads, and veiled the sky as with a
close netting. To these ropeathe moun
tainous mass of granite, covered with its
profusion of hieroglyphic^, was attached,
and 1 icing gradually raised up into the
air, and for some tune actually suspend
ed, was at last poised upon the bast* pre
pared for it by the cxervions of many

Old Age.
Tho brain in old persons, after the age.
of 70, diminishes both in bulk.aiwl den
sity, and thus IveeouHw lighter. Its ca
pacity for continuous hard work is
thereby lessened as realty as is that of
the hotly for muscular laltor. 3
As an old uiau, however, has the ac
cumulated knowledge, skill and practi
cal experience of almost a lifetipic, uml
that wonderful facility which comes of
habit, he way, with good health and
care, do much of Jiis best work in tho
neighborhood, say, of 80.
Ke cannot l>ear mental ‘strain, and he
must not attempt mental “spurts,” but
lie can still slnov himself a “workman
that ueedeth not to be ashamed.”
Since,"however, theBrain is not then so
firmly supported by the skull, tcid is
slighter in texture, the blood vessel?! are
more easily dilated of ruptured. The
danger of paralysis, and apoplexy is still
fitrther increased, because the blood ves
sels becomo- in olD age more or less ob-
sitied and brittle, and thus less nblq to
sustain a sudden ruali of blood.

Unhitching 8 Horse InatoaUaeoulj.
A very interesting experiment was
lately made at Milan of Signor Mainetti’s
invention for instantaneously detaching
a horse from a carriage. The horse, <put
at a gallop, was detached without the
least shock, leaving the carriage behind,
and only carrying off the harness on hte
back. The contrivance consists of »
lover within reach ofthe coachman, who,
with the slightest effort, withdraws two
little iron pegs which fasten the traces.
Now, as all the harness on the horses to
fastened to two iron bolts, fixed ou the
shafts, and these bolts are only held in
their places by the traces, it follows
that t)ia moment the latter are loosened
the boits slide out snd the whole of the
horse’s harness is detached from the car*
riage, while the shafts snd bars remain
in their places. The experiment was l»*
nested with success several times.
