New Year's Day.
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

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.

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.

The C.ommissioner of Internal Revenue

commence, without delay; the assessment
of Income taxes for 1867; also taxes upon
Gold watches, & - e., and of Special taxes
(forruely called licenses) for year com
mencing May Ist. It is intended that
these assessments shall be completed in
March, and the taxes all paid before the
first day of May.
Lottery Swindles.
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. And the Diamonds offered are
worthless stones, once used to swindle a
New York tobacconist out of $200,000.

negro Constitutional Convention of Louis

No person shall establish a private
school unless licensed by the State, and all
such schools shall be taxed as other pro
fessions, and the Legislature shall make
laws governing this entire subject.
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.

gasworks at Warrington, in Liverpool.
In both cases the effort were unsuccessful.

The true value of Machinery applied to Watchmak
ing is not that by its use Watches are made rapidly,
but that they are made correctly. Very few people
know why a Waltham Watch should be superior to any
other. lu the first place, at Waltham the Watch is re
garded as only a machine, on mechanical principles.
if the watchierare good. itlebecause the' machinery, ie
good: Of course there must beno,defeet itithe.princl
ple or plan of the movement—no mistake in the. sizes
or shapes attire pieces of which It 'is composed—noth
ing tvanting in their properties, and no error in their
positions.. 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.
