THE NEW YEAR.

Before another number of the "Pio.:

will take its departure into eternity and
the new one will he ushered in. The
death knell of 1850 will soon be rung.

page We cannot but regret that it will
carry with it through future ages the foul
bot with which it has been tarnished by
designing demagogues and black hearted
traitors.
!, But friends. as the decrepid old year
si Ks into the past-as it assumes its
place in the tomb Of years-and as the
young hopeful. robust, New Year. springs
into its place, let us not forget the lesson
it teaches-with all OF US time mus
end and eternity begin. Time does
NOT fly upon lsadrn wings twelve months

and as We bound along in the enjoyment
Of health and plenty wesesm to have for.
gotten that many of those who. one short
year ago. erasp-d our hands in friend
ship, wished US a "happy New Year"
and bid us God speed. have been laid low
by the hand of Death.

you all a happy New Year you will
accept the kind regard. Of the editor and
his best wishes for your health aad pros,

MISCELLANEOUS.

THE AMALGAMATIoS OF LANGuAGts-i here
is growing tendency in this age toappropri-
ate the most exp, essive words Gf other Ian
guages, and after while to incorporate them
nto our own, thus the word Ceplialic, which
is from the Greek, signif, ing .'for the head, y
is now becoming pop ularized in connection
with Mr. SpaIdlng's great Headache remedy,
but It will soon be used i'll more general
way, and the word Cephalic will become as
common As Eleotrotype and manv others
whose distinction As foreign ,rds has been
worn away by common usage until they seem
native and to the manor born"

Freaks OF Fortune.

The New York Express il responsible for
the following history of the yicissitudes of for
tune:
About five years ago Count b., Russian
nobleman, was accused Of political crimes.
An edict was issued confscatng his estates
and consigning him and his family to the wilds
of Siberia. Fortunately the Count heard of
she matter before il was too late, and succeed
ed in embarking with his wife and daughter
on board of brig hound for the United Stntes
In the hurry Of their fight they were unable
to take anything with them but few valuables
which barely suiliced to pay for their passage
They landed in this city pennicss and friend
less. In this predicnment, the Count be-
thought Of turning the musical talents of his
family to account He procured an organ for
himself, violin for his wife, and a tamborine
for his daughter, by pawning portions of their
clothing. The trio then went out, singing
and playing from door to door and their aris-
tocratic manner, which even their humble oc-
cupation but lily disguised, procured for them
much more liberal support than is usually given
to itinerant musicians Their gains were so
considerable that in the space Of four years
they had laid by money sufficient to purchase
a house for $4,000 in the Sixteenth Ward,
aud two weeks ago signed the title deeds in
the office of a lawyer in this city. BY the last
mail the Count received dispatches acceding
to him II fun pardon, with the restoration OF
