The first day of the year, for many ages and in various parts of the world celebra ted as a religious and social festival.— With the post-biblical Jews the new year commenced and still commences with the autumnal month Tisri, the first day being celebrated by them with considerable cer mony. Tne Romans made an especial holiday of it, offering sacrifices to - Jantisovhose principal festival occurred on this day,aed taking care that all they thought, said and did, should be pure and favorable, since everything was othinons for the oc currences of the whole year.. They ap peared in .the streets in festive garments, exchanged kindly salutations, and gave to each other presents called strekce, consist ing of gilt dates, figs, • honey cakes and copper coins having one side the double head of Janus, and on the other a ship.— This custom of bestowing presents 'was made by some of the emperors an impor % ftant coerce of their personal revenue, ,tte - - - til modified by a decree of the emperor. Claudius. The early Christian;emperors however continued to receive -there, hot withstanding they were condemned by the . ecclesiasticarColineili bn account of the pagan ceremonies at their presentation. Pryane in bin " Histrio-liastix,” referrin to the hostility of the early church to ani imitation tialong Christians of the Roman saturnalia, says: "The whole Catholicke.church appoint -ad a solemn publiee fasts upon. their new yeare's day, to bewair those heathenish enterludes, sports, and le'wd idolatrous practices, which had been used on it; pro hibiting all Christians, on:pain of excom munication, from observing the mien& or - first of January (which wee now call new yeare's day) as holy, • and from sending abroad new yeare's gifts upon it (a ens tome now too frequent), it being a mere religne of paganism and idolatry) derived from the heathen Romans' feasts of two faced Janne, and a practice so execrable unto Christians, that not, onely the whole Catholicke church, but even the four fa mous councils of (here follow a long st ray of authorities) have positively prohi bited the solemnization of new yeare's day, and the sending abroad of new yeare Fitts, under an anathema and excommun tcation." The bestowal of gifts upon new year's day was not peculiar to theßomans. The druids distributed branches of 'the sacred mistletoe, cut with peculiar cereinonies, as new year's gifts among the people; and the Salons of the north, according to Bishop Stillingfleet, observed the festival with more than ordinary jollity and 'feast: ing, and by sending ' gifts to one anoth(44 in spite of the opposition of ecclesiastical councils', the practice continued thiovigh the middle ages; sad among kings mid . . their powerful vassals the interchange of presents was a distinguishing feature of the•first day•of thelear. - nem W. of Englind is said to have extorted new`year's gifts, and'Queen Elia aboths wardrobe and jewoly were proba bly almost wholly supplitid from these an nual contributions. It appears from the "Progresses and Processions" of her ma jesty, published by Nichols, that the lords spiritual and temporal of the realm, the Chief officers of state, and the servants of the royal household down to the master cook; sergeant of the pastry and dustman, were among the contributors to these Jar gasses, which consisted' of money, rich wearing apparel,. plate, jewels, trinkets, sweet meats, and an lank.° variety of oth er things.. Dr. Drake says that, although the queen made returns to the new year's gifts, in plate and other articles, she took take care that the balance should be in her own favor. As late as 1682, as appears from the Monthly Miscellany for December of that year, the English nobility were accustom ed, "every new year's tide," to "send to the king a purse with gold in it." Under the Tudors and Stuarts new year's gifts were given and received with mutual wishes of a happy new year among all conditions of people. An orange stuck with clover or a gilt nutmeg was a popu lar gift; tenants sent their landlords ca pons, and ladies received presents of gloves or pins, or in lieu thereof a compo sition in money, whence the terms "glove money" and "pin money," Brand in his " Popular Antiquities" en umerates many ceremonies and supersti tious practices observed by the English and Scottish peasantry on the first day of the year, a hich, with the o 05 almost un iversal dist' ibut ionofgilis,havevery much declined. In England the ringing in the new year from the bellries of churches is now the only demonstration of joy at the recurrence of the anniversary. In Ger many ceremonies derived from old super stitions are in vogue; but throughout continental Europe, although the day is a universal holiday, congratulatory wishes have generally been substituted for the more substantial expressions of esteem fortfterly interchanged by fl tends. In Paris and other large cities almost incredible slims are still expended in bon bons and similar articles for presents. In the city of New Yolk the day is made the occasion of social visits by gentlemen among, the families of their acquaintance; a custom dating back a'most to the settle ment of the town by the Dutch,and which has been imitated with more or less sue cess iii other places in the United States. I —Nets American Cyclopced ia. Christmas. CIIRP.TIIAS—that ever welcome anni versary—passed t,ff very acceptably last week. The Christmas trees on Tuesday evening, at some of the Churches were la den with a - bountiful crop of precious gifts, and the occasion was both pleasaut and profitable to the participants. On Wddnesday the weather being mild and pleasant, and the sleighing excellent, it, is almost needless to state that it was made good use of by the people general ly, who correctly anticipated that it was about the last day (fur the present) for that exhilerating pastime. Our streets presented a lively aspect during the day, and the Band kindly favored the public with some acceptable music in the open air. In the evening, after the annual Mason ic Installation, at Warren Lodge, the members of the craft, to the number of some b 0 or 60, partook of an excellent oyster supper at the Franklin House. Altogether, it was a pleasant festive season, and ale recurrence of its like will be most welcome, especially to those of us who were bountifully remembered by that clever old myth, who is said to visit. the fireside at the mystic hour,.-andlie• cretly deposit the unexpected token's' of friendship and affection., Internal 7 Retenne Decisions', -fil'be Commissioner of Internal Revenue - has rehdered the following decisions : A mortgage, security , b $lOO or less, is not subject to a stamp duty; but the lia bility of the bond or note, which is evi dence of the amoynt secured, is the same as though there were no mortgage. The necessary stamp may, however, be affixed either to the bond or to the mortgage. Section 160. The postion of treasurer in the organi zation of Odd Fellows or Free Masons, or any other similar organization is not an office within the meaning of the statute. Bond given by the' persons holding such positions are, therefore, not sulject to a dollar stamp each, as bonds " for the duJ execution of performance of the duties" of an office, but to a twenty five cent stamp only, as a bond not otherwise - charged In Schedule B. Legacies and Distributive Shares. The attention of Executors and Ad ministrators is particularly directed to the following clauses of the Internal Rev enue Law : And every Administrator, Executor, or Trustee, having in charge or trust any legacy or distributive shares, as aforesaid shall give notice thereof in writing to the Assessor or Assistant Assessor of the dis trct where deceased grantor or bargain er last resided within thirty days after he shall have taken charge of such trust. And in caseof wilful neglect of such Exe cuter, Administrator, or Trustee, as afore said, he 814 be liable to a penalty not ex ceeding one thousand dollars, to be re covered costs of suit. A strict bOinpliinee with the . above clause of the Law will save Executors and AdMinistratUrs time and - trouble. *en —A wit once asked a peasant wbat part be perforified' tbe great dranta.of life?

One of the most promising of the many gift enterprises offered to ns for advertise ment was the Gettysburg Orphan Asylum scheme. We suspect all such, and gener ally decline t hem, although offering to pay well. Mr. Van Wyck, member of Con gress from New York, denounces the above scheme as a swindle, the $60.000 farm being in his district and not worth $6.000.

This is to prevent the establishment of private schools for white children, as it is the object of the convention to compel the two races to attend the same school and be educated together as social equals.

These points once thoroughly settled, It rests wholly with the machinery constructed with in finite diversity of form and function exprcsaly tbr the purpose, to produce the finished pieces. By means of multiplying guag,es and microscopes, tests and inspec tion for the detection of wear in the cutting tools, and for faults or flaws in steel or stone are made to accom pany the work in every stage from beginning to end.— As a necessary result, the watch goes together a perfect machine. Every part is found to fit properly in its place. Every pin may be pushed till it pinches, and ev ery screw turned home. In tead of a sluggish and fee ble action, the balance, evWnrider the pressure of the lightest mainspring, vibrates with a wide and free mo tion, and the beat has the clear ringing_ sound always characteristic of the Waltham Watch. The machine is a timekeeper from the start. This system is unknown in foreign countries, and is entirely original with the Waltham Company. The Company claim that by it they produce watches that cannot be squall. d for every quality which makes a watch valuable. Simple In plan and correct in princi• pie, the movement Is not only beautifully finished, sub stantial, accurate and cheap, but Is uniform la the mi. mutest details, not easily damaged, and when repaired always as good 48 new, There are different grades of finish Itt the different varieties of watches made by the Waltham Company, as there are different sizes and shapes to suit all tastes and means ; but every Watch that bears the genuine trade-mark of "Wayrnarr" is guarantied to be a good one, and nobody noes be afraid to bny it. EVERY WATCH FULLY WARRANTED For Salo by all First-Class Dealers in the United States and British Provinces.
