Th present year, is, as most people
know, ''leap year," so called because,
every fourth year, one day is added to
the month of February, on account of
the excess of the civil year (305 days
5 hours, 48 minutes uud 49:7 seconds)
above 305 days. But one day added
every lour years is equivalent to six
hours each year, which is 11 minutes
10:3 seconds too much, or more thau
five hours 48 minutes and 49:7 seconds,
tbe excess of the real year. Hence, a
the end of every century divisible by 4,
it is necessary to retain the bis-sextile
dav and to suppress it at tbe end of
those centuries not divisible by 4.
It is said that during leap year more
marriages lake place than duriDg any of
the other three; and the reason given
for this is that the ladies are privileged
to "pop the question," and they do it
with such warmth and grace and elo
quence, the men usually surrender at
discretion. As this is an age of wo
man's rights it is to be hoped that the
ladies will this year make good use of
their pleasing perogatives.
January, the first month of the New
Year, is so called from Tanus, who was
supposed to preside over doors. He
was represented with two faces, one of
which looked back over the old year, the
other forward to the new. The Roman
year originally contained but ten months,
and commenced with March. Mima
Ponipilius, who died 672 B. C, added
January and February.
February this year commences and
nds on Thursday, consequently we
have five Thursdays in this month,
which will not ocuur again until the
year 1900. In the year 1380 February
will have five Sundays, which will not
occur again until the year 1920.

Scene at a Neuro Oi'era House.
Jim Lord a massa, Sam, what is de
matter wid you? You is jes like a
mashed skeletou.
Sam A nuff do inotter wid me. Why
dese sin do irats. You see that I'de
had no ploymeut fur a long time, when
all at once I gits a letter lrom Dr.IIoof
land to come and work for him.
Jim Dr.Hoofland, eh! who is he!
Sam Why de great mcdicino man
dat makes all detu tings dat folks talk so
niueh about. You know Dr. Hooihnd's
German Bitters, Dr. Iloofland's Ger
man Tonic, and Dr. Hoofland's Podo
phyllin Pills we took many a dose of
dem ar when us niggers were on old
massa's plantation in Georgia.
Jim Well, how did you make out
with de Dr.?
Sam Make out, yah! yah! yes, dere's
where de luff comes in, I could not make
out at all; de way of it was this; de
Doctor he says, Sam, pound up dem ere
roots in dat big iron mortar, and don't
go foolin wid any of de medicines dat
you see piled up around here. Well,
you knows Jim, dat 1 always had some
complaint of de liver, so I thinks this a
good chance to cure myself free gratis,
for nothing. When the Doctor goes
down stairs, I takes a lot of de Pills,
after a little time I takes a dose of de
Bitters, then I takes a dose of de Tonic,
and I goes on all day. When de bell
rings to quit work, 1 brush myself off
and goes to get out of de door, but no
use, I comes bang up against de sides of
de jams, and to save my life I could not
git through ddt door.
Jim Why dat s queer, why could nt
you git through de door?
Sam Cause 1 had got too tat. Toe
medicines of do Doctor are to build up
de natures and systems of folks, and
they had built me up so dat I could no:
git out ot dat door. Lord, Jim, yon
should have seed this DARK, I was de
healthiest and fattest looking culled per
son you ever seed. But how de debbil
was I to git out? I yelled for de Doctor,
and he come runnin' up stairs, and as
soon as he clapped bis vision on me he
knowed what de matter was. He says,
you old nigger, did I not tell you to
leave de medicines alone? you have been
at them, and have fattened up till .you
could cot git out of de door. It serves
you right, and you stay there till you
starve yourself thin. Oh, dear Doctor,
I said and cried, do git me out; and I
prayed and I begged till the Doctor he
takes pity on me, and said he would
git me out it he could. The Dootor
then thinks a little bit, den he rings de
bell and his boy comes up and he says to
him, boy, you go down to de store of de
opposition Doctor, and bring me so many
of his medicines, aod he tells de boy
how many of each kind to git. When
de boy he goes, I says, why Doctor,
what for yon send for you send for de
medicines of dat oder Dootor? he says
his medicines will make people fat too.
Ah, says de Doctor, he says so, but dat
amnotdofao, but dey will make em
thin. And cow, Sam, when de boy
comes back I will give yon dem medi
cines to take, and you stay up all night
in dis room and take em, and in do
morning you' will be thin enough to
git out of do door. So the Doctor
leaves mo de medicines wid a candle,
and goes away. Den I commences to
tike de medicines of de ouer Doctor,
and takes em steady along for three or
four hours, and den I gets tired and
lays down and goes to 6lecp. now
long I sleeps I knows not, but I waked
up aud found de oandle had gone out,
and I was all in de dark; den I gits up
and feels so lunny, ns if I had been
scraped down, and so awful weak dat I
could scarcely walk. But I shuffles
round and hunted for de door, and
while I was hunting, all at once I goes
slap bang through a knot-hole in de
floor, and falls flat into de Doctor's -ooui,
De Doctor he jumps up, skeared almost
to death, and when he seed it was me,
he lafled till he cried. So you old dark,
he Bays, why did you not stay till
morning, when I would have let you out
right. I told you de oder Doctor's
medicines would mako you thin, but
I did not think dey could draw you
through a knot-hole.

THE
NEW YORK TRIBUNE.
FOB 1873-
The consolidation of Italy, so long frag
mentary and impotent, into one powerful
State, with 'Rome as its capital; the hu
miliation of France through a series of
crushing defeats, ending with the siege
and oapitnlation of her proud and gay me
tropolis; the expulsion of the Burbousfrom
the Spanish throne, and the substitution
for them of a scion of the most liberal
among royal houses; the virtual absorption
of the kingdoms of Saxony, Wurttemherg,
Bavaria, with Baden, Hesse, the Hanse
Towns, &c,, under the headship of Prussia,
Into the triumphant and powerful empire
uf Germany; and tho arming of Russia to
reassert her preponderance in the counoils
of Europe, or to proseoute hor ofton post
poned but never relinguished designs on
the great city founded bj Constantino and
tho vast but decaying and anarchial do
minion of the Sultan, all combine to invest
with profound interest tho ever changing
phases of our tidings from the Old World.
Tub Tribune, through trusted correspon
dents stationed at all points in Europe
where great movements are in progress or
imminent, aims to present a complete and
instructive panorama of events on that con
tinent, and to mirror the prolonged strug
gle between - middle-ago Feud
alism and Eoclcsiasticism on tbe one hand
and Nineteenth-Century skepticism and sec
ularism on the other. Recognizing a Di
vine Providence in all that proceeds and is,
it looks hopefully ou the great conflict as
destined (like our our recent convulsion)
to evolve lrom strife, disaster, and seeming
chaos, a fairer and happier future for the
toiling masses of mankind.
In our own country, a war upon corrup
tion and rascality in office has been inau
gurated in our City, whereby the govern
ment of our Slate has beeii revolutionized
through an initial triumph of Reform which
surpasses the most sanguine anticipations.
It is morally certain that the movement
thus inaugurated cannot, in its progress, be
circumscribed to any locality or any party,
but that its purifying influence is destined
to be felt in every part of the Union, re.
buking venality, exposing robbery, wrest
ing power from politicians by trade, and
confiding it to those worthiest and fittest
to wiekl it. To this beneficent and vitally
needed Reform, Tus Tkibukk will devote its
best energies, regardless of personal inter
ests or party predilections, esteeming the
choice of honest and faithful men to office
as of all New Departures the most essen
tial and auspicious.
The virtual surrender by the Democratic
party of its hostility to Equal Rights re
gardless of Color has divested our current
politics of half their bygone intensity.
However parties may hcuceforth rise or
fall, it is clear that the fundamental princi
ples which have hitherto honorably distin.
guished the Republicans are henceforth to
be regarded as practically accepted by the
whole country. The right of every man to
his own limbs and sinews the equality of
all citizens before the law the inability uf
a State to enslave any portion of its people
the duty of the Union to guarantee to
every citizen the full eujoymeut of his lib
ery until he forfeits it by crime such are
the broad and firm foundations of our Na
tional edifice; and palsied be the hand which
shall seek to displace them! Though not
yet twenty years old, the Republican party
has completed the noble fabric of Emanci
pation, and may fairly invoke thereon the
sternest juJguieut of Alan and tho benig
nant cniile of God.
Henceforth, the mission of our Republio
is one of Peaceful Progress. To protect
the weak and the humble from violence and
oppression to extend the boundaries and
diil'use tho blessings of Civilization to
stimulate Ingenuity to the production of
new inventions for economizing Labor and
enlarging Production to draw nearer to
each other the producers of Food and of
Fabrics, of Grains and of Metals, and thus
enhance the gains of Industry by reducing
the cost of transportation and exchanges
between farmers and artisans such is tho
iuspiring task to which this Nation now
addresses itself, and by which it would faiu
contribute to the progress, enlightenment,
and happiness of our race. To this great
and good work, Tuk Tmuu.'iE contributes
its zealous, pvrsi.stcut e Hurts.
Agriculture will continue to bo more es
pecially elucidated in its Weekly and Semi
Weekly editions; to which some of the
ablest and most successful tillers of the
soil will steadily contribute. No farmer
who sells $300 worth of produce per an
num can atlurd to do without our Market
Reports, or others equally lucid aud com
prehensive. If he should read nothing
else but what relates to his own calling and
its rewards, we believe that no farmer who
can read at all can afford to do without such
a journal as Tub Tu.uukk. Aud we aspire
to make it equally valuable to those en
gaged in other departments of Productive
Labor. We spend more and more money
on our columns each year, as our country
men's generous patronage enables us to do;
and we are resolved that our issues of for
mer years shall be excelled in varied ex
cellence aud interest by those of 1872.
Friends in every State! help us to make our
journal better and better, by sending in
your subscriptions aud increasing your
Clubs for the year just before us!
