M. Cadot of Paris, - has recently invented a curious clock whiclideservei a „prominent • 'place among the nuttiber of similar -ingenious . devices 'which we lately. described.' It has two apparently free- hands. placed. in the centre of a double pane,the two sheets Of glass, composing which are held, in an orna- mental frame_ The clock is operated by concealed Mechanism in. the frame, which once fairminute causes- a slight and nearly in- visible:Malign of one of the glasses. This • causes the Moienientof the minute hand; and a minute 7train- of gearing condealed in the pivotof da . thehour • hand. - Mr. 'Robert Hell ,lately been exhibiting al dee o invention, the mystery of. which no one, „we believe,. has yet fathomed. It clear disk of glass, marked with the usual numbers. The hands have no bulb or other enlarge.- meat - at the Centre, -- where it -might be mechanism Could be concealed, and appear to be simply pivoted to .the face. " -A ring .like that of a watch suffices: for the • support of the clock from two cords snsPend...' edfromthe ceiling; ...At the command of its owner, the 'clock Marks any hour, moves backward- and - forw.ard, . and otherwise be- haves in an astonishing manner. The use of the cord _naturally -suggested Coneealed wires and electricity, -which is:probably the secret of the movement. But this theory_ is some. what when the :Magician 'remoVes. the clockiremits cords, and, holding it with at arm's length; carries it inthe Midst of his audience and causes it to con- tinue its perfornianeeS under the:very eyes of the people, allowing the closest inspection. One Clock like that would be an, invaluable aid to an exhibiting spiritualistic* rs di and .would cause - 'widespread rejoicings among_ the elect. • - 1\T Ito* c Sultan -Lives. Ms Hours, Habits, and -Intimates-After- Dinner Talks--Fondnees for Music. [From the Pall Mall -_Gazette.] The Sultan leads a 'quiet and orderly life, is systematic in his habits, and takes care of his health. • He retires early ----generally be- fore 11 o'clock -and . by 10 in the morning he is in his library or cabinet de travail (a fact of • which I myself _ani a_frequent!witale438)‘wh ere ere he spends the greater part -of the day.

With t Admiral his relations are more confidential :hi makes him- the channel of unbific. intercoursewithour embassy. . • • In the evening the Sultan frequently mike one or more of the Ministers to dine at the palace., and after they have dined. engages themjn.conveksatfon on public affairs,- which is often Protracted to a late hour, The day before yesterday Safvet Pasha mentioned to me casually in converisation that on the pre,- Vious Sunday evening the Sultan _detained him thus in a tete-a-tete colloquy which listed for three hours. . • Recently, :too, Ed. hem, Djevdet and Redif Pashas pissed the Whole evening with the Sultan dittonssing public affairs: Again,- Ali. Pasha,. lately , called from his miserable Governershipl- Mostar to be Vall of Adrianopk-the Ali ivhe prededed Sadyk as Ambassador at Paris -had a long _interview with the Sultan fore . going to his new post . In= this inter- view the -Sultan_ cross,questioned- him very minutely regarding the .causes of provincial maladministration. , Ali:Pasha explained to - hire the vice of the whole system, the.Sultan listening With marked attention. In taking eave of Ali the Sultan': requestedhim.to time to Constantinople -once a Month in ,or- er, to conferwithhim on provincial affairs.. Another person who has lately seen the an is Phetiadett Bey,- the Ottoman Minister t Athens, Who, says that the. Sultan asked m number .0' very sensible questions bout Greek Politics, and the social and in- fistriaL condition of Greece as compared with, that of Turkey. All these men who avelateltieen the Sultan bear testimony the soundness of his bodily health and of s mental powers. NO one says he is a eat genius; 1 but all agree that he is. modest, telligent, eager for information, and great, : interested in the affairs of the Empire. As regards amusements, I learn that -he in- erite his father's fondness for 'tamale and. the fibres in those fmg rif being communicat--- ed to the shell; it propagates. and intensifies them as the hollow bo y of a violin does. the vibration of its.strings and thus _the .m.014- -fie nerve receives Ither °limns T-4expressions.

Paul Dussap was the music master of his boyhood, and he it is who conducts the Sultan's musi- cal evenings. I.:asked D. how these even- ings Were passed -unless the Sultan is very busy there is always music -and he replied, "The Sultan likes the piano with Stringed' _ quatuor afterTlaymg a few pieces thus ar- ranged,. she generally asks me to sing, and then he talks of music. - He likes the quaint wildness which belongs to Turkish music, and to its more civilized Hungarian- brother. At his request 'I composed a March for him, in Which he particularly' wished to have the -rhythm of the " Marseillaise " ' combined . with the characteristic modulations of Turk- ish and Hungarian music. He. told' me to "keep it as much like his father's own march as possible." D. played the march to me, adding the' Sultan had made seieral little changes 'before authorizing him .to have it seared for the full Orchestra. These little matters, wholly unimportant in themselves; help to throw -light upon this question, and, give one aii•insight into the Sultan's mode of life. ' A IteW' Game. (From the Virginia Chronicle.) A man came into a restaurant last night, awl, mounting a high stool, leaned over the counter and ordered a porterhouse steak with - eggs on the side, and some ale and oysters to . begin with. In. about half an hour he had -finished his repast and -wai beginning to, de= . liberate on what kind of _dessert he would wind up on, when a Man Walked in, and, tapping hitn•On the shoulder, remarked: "Is your name Billy Hicks ?" "Yes, that's my name," said the man on thestool, as the hand stole downto his hip pocket, fumbling for the hand of a barker.; " what do o want?" - • Y - - - "We had a little -trouble once before in White Pine, and. now 1 guess I've got you .dead to rights," continued the new comer, pulling out a large-sized six-shooter. "If you'll just step Out into the Street and pace off your distance, I'm:your man," said the feeder' who had just finished his pie, and whipping out a revolver, he sprang off his perch and rushed after the other into the street. - _The frightened restaurant -man -got clown behind the counter and bent his ear to listen to the shots and rush of the.mob ; but he did not hear anything unusual, and in about five minutes he recollected that there was $2.50' owing on the meal. Then he went out on the sidewalk to investigate. -" Was there a roVs-outthere a few minutes ago ?" he inquired of a - star gazer „on the sidewa.Ik. - . - Didn't see any.'
