Offices when good and true republicans
can be found to fill them but, can
anybody who is an advocate of the
principles upon which the republican
party is founded support Mr.. Hayes
in his Cancellation scheme? His policy
thus far has only resulted in dividing
the republican party and uniting their
opponents to such an extent that the
Tilden democracy believe themselves
strong enough to turn Mr.. Hayes out
of the White House and scat Mr.
Tilden therein. If this revolutionary
movement is defeated it will be by the

Ancient l'imepleces.

Bowls were used to measure time,
from which water, drop by drop. was
discharged Though small aperture.
Such bowls were called water-clocks.
It was then observed how much water
from such bowel or cask, from sunrise
till the shortest shadow, trick'ed down
into another bowl placed beneath; and
this time, being half of the whole solar
cay, was divided into six hours. Conse-
quently they took sixth Of the water
which had trickled down, poured it into
the upper bowl and this discharged one
hour had expired. But afterward more
convenient arrangement was made; they
observed how high the water at each
hour rose in the lower bowl, marking
these points, and counting them, thus
finding out how many hours were till
sunrise.
With the Chinese, the water-clock or
c'epsydra are very cid. They used a
round vessel filled with water, with hole
IN the bottom, which was placed upon an
other vessel. When the water in the up
per vessel passes down into the lower YES
sci it subsidized by degrees, announcing
thereby the part Of time elapsed. The
Babylonians are said to have used such
instruments; from them the Greeks vi
Asia Minor got them, at the time Of King
Cyrus, about the year $50 before Christ
The Romans did not get the first water
clock before Christ. But, though the
hours Of the c,epsydras did not vary in
length, they still counted from the morn.
ing. When The clock with us strikes
seven, the ancients counted one, when the
clock with US strikes twelve the ancients
count six, and so forth. This method OF
counting the hour was, according to the
New Testament, also customary in Pales
tine at the time of Christ. The water.
clocks had the advantage that they could
be used at night, and the Romans used
them to divide their night watches, which
were relieved four times, both summer
and winter. Comfortably to these foul
night watches were counted, not only ii
Rome. but wherever Roman garrison

The brocaded materials are gradually

another to hang from the chatlaine.
The newest short dresses have three

In winter the wool fabric is also laid on

OF tedded grass, with faded flowers,

While from yon roof whose curling smoke

The voice OF psalms, the simple song of
