A Clock Three Hundred
Years Old.

A curious relic of bygone
days is at present in a jewelry
store in Germantown undergo
ing repairs. 1t is a chime
clock, the property Of a resi-
dent Of the village, and its
history, which is rather pecu.
liar, is given as follows:
1t was originally the proper
ty of q man named Barnhill,
the grandfather of the present
owner. Being q sympathizer
with the American cause du-
ring the Revolutionary War,
he was compelled to- fee from
his home in Philadelphia when
the British troops, under Howe
entered and took possession.-
His house and furniture were
taken by the troops, and the
case Of the clock, which stood
some eight feet high, was used
for fuel. The works were
spared. When the American
troops reoccupied the city the
works were found by the own
er on the mantel-piece of his
house, and running. These
have been preserved to this
day. The face of the clock
bears the imprint, "Devereux
Bowly, London" The dwell.
ing of Mr.. BarnhiIl stood at
the corner of Third street and
Church alley. The clock is
made to chime every fifteen
minutes, and has six bells. 1t
is quite a curiosity in it's con-
struction, and is in good state
of preservation, with the ex-
ception Of the first bell, which
is cracked. A new case has
been made for in since the des,
truction Of the original one.--
1t is a very valuable and curl.
Gus timepiece, and is supposed
to be about three hundred
wears old.

An Elderly Female.

A female, and no doubt the
oldest one in New York City,
named Ellen Burke, having at
tanned her one hundred and
fifth year, applied on Monday
week ago to the Commission
ers of Charities aud Correction
to be sent to the almshouse,
being in destitute circumstan-
ces, and without q relative in
the country, having outlived
every one. She was born in
the year l765, in Skibbereen,
county Cork, Ireland, and came
here many years ago. She re.
tains all her facilities, only
slightly impaired, and her
memory, which is very reten-
tive, carries her back even be-
yond the stirring scenes of the
rebellion Of '9S, many of which
she describes vividly. She is
comparatively vigorous, too,
and walks even without the
assistance of a stick, with q
firm and sure tread. She is
altogether a most remarkable
person. She was sent to the
almshouse.

The prayer winged by faith
never fails to reach the throne.
Such prayer is the hand which
pluclls fruit from the tree of
life for our food, and leaves for
our healing. 1t honors God
and God honors it. This is the
confidence we have in Him, that
if we ask anything according
to His will, He hears us, what.
soever we ask, we know that
we have the petitions that We

Beautiful Thoughts.

The same God who moulded
out the sun and stars, watches
the flight of insects. He who
balanced the clouds, and hung
the earth upon nothing, notices
the fall of the spawows. He
who gave Saturn his two rings,
and placed the moon, like a
ball Of silver, in the broad
arch Of heaven, gives the rose
leaf its delicate tint. And the
same Being notices equally the
praise of the cherubim and the
prayers of the little child.
