SlguificAut L&ndmark8 la New York Citj. Castle Garden, Trinity Caurch, Union Square. Etc Memorable Scene Ilefore ''the Old Clock" Points. Boston llcrald I NivtYoek, Dec 13, 1334 Many people haye aa idea tbat sentiment ia confined to loYers, and that the rustic bench, therannel coal flame, the 2 o'clock in the morning ball room, the last Högering moment of a delight fal evening, romance in the mountains, flir tations in the springs, the long a weepings of the steamer orer the ceralean crested wares, are the only inspirations in other words, that opportunity alne decides all things la life. This is poppycock. No man lives, who is worth living, who hasn't friends by the score, knitted to him with hooks of steel, and bound to him by bars and bands of iron. No man lives, who is worth livinsr. who hasn't enemies, quick to apprehend everything to his disadvantage, nua to utilize it, if possible, to his absolute fmnibuation All of us bad forefathers. Where are they? From our earliest infancy we have been familiar with men, women, buildings, significant physical developments. Where are they? The men have long since dried up and blown away, to Paradise or elsewhere. The women naturally followed suit. The great buildings were pulled down years and years ago, and the significant physical developments no longer exist. Day after day landmarks pass from right. Now and then Bonie Hi-defined echo of the past brings to ns a reminiscence of a floating suggestion of what was, bnt which will never be again. I waa standing this morning on tbe fctepa of a broker's otfice, within a Stone's thro of Madison Square, when I said to myself: "What the matter? Something's gone. Vbat do you miss?" I looked and looked a long time in vain. All of a sudden I b&itt: '-Why, the old clock's gone." And suit- enough it waa. Even the standard, the t-Lfi iy iion pillar, on which it rested, had be; taken away, and the hole made by its firp foundation wa9 filled up with logs of wo d, temporarily placed there. I declare, in a moment, in the twinkle of an eye, my miixd rushes back to lS53,when the old Cl9ck was reared, and I thought "Where under heaven are the men who" put it there? What bas become of the millions who have looked at it for information, for warning, for suggestion?' Absolutely gone, it was taken down day before yesterday.and prior to that time had any one said to any well-informed maa about town, "What do yon consider the significant landmarks in New York cityV the answer would have been: "Castle Garden at the Battery, Trinity Church at the bead of Wall street, tbe Postotiice, the City Hall, Union Eqnare, the old clock on Madison square and Central Park." Every oi e vi these has passed through a signiiicant ftaiice; some of them a series, CASTLE GAIiDK! to-day ii no more the Castle Garden cf my boyhood than my baldheaded, grizzly bearded wlf ia like the boy I knew' tome forty yean ago. My first recollection of Castle Garden is that it was a fort; than that it was changed into a vast amphithetre in which the most magnificent lyric artists of the age raade thenjeuea harmonious for the delectation and th dollars cf the great Ameriean public Mario, tbe rogat Buperb combination of lyric and dramatic art ever known, made his debut there, so far as Arueiica was concerned, and Grist, the absolute personification, the type, the very mould and fashion of the compoeer'sNoroia, there first barst, refalont and melodious, upon the American ear. There I recall distinct'y the great Julian and hii magnificent orchestra, the king pin of wbicö was Herr Koenig, priDre of cornetitts. Julian seemed to regard himself as a kind of five legged calf, a tort of fat woman. Ue appeared to feel that he was a curiosity and that he was to be on exhibition all the time, The consequence was that his conducting was a series of grimacces so far as bis face was concerned, hnd a sequence of contortions so far as his body bad anything to do with the performance. Then came Jenny Lind, and, after that, Castle Garden iaDk lower and lower, until finally it became what it ia today, a receptacle for immigrants, a great big apartment absolutely echoing with cries of distress and with &;r;nala o disturbance from January to Derenibar and Irom January te lecrmber ajrain. The next landmark, teisity CHcncn liesn't passed through the trials and tribulations oi Caatle Garden, which has virtually passed away, for its port holes are new eheltered with glass, its porticullis waa long since torn away, red hot stoves take the place of its magazine and tbe odor of DOtcleanly emigrants has supplanted that of saltpetre. Trinity Church has the most beautifully modeled spire in the world. As an edifice otherwise, it is beneath criticism, out no bright pen has ever yet been able to say aright against the proportion of the spire, acy more than any tongue, evil thousii it m:ght be, would dare asperse the majesty of its golden cross. I have seen many notable occasion? celebrated in Trinity Church, I remember when the bones of "Don't give ud the bhip' Lawrence were put there. In tbe ear!y days of the war, gallant Phil Karney, mutilated, dead, was brought to that church and laid before the altar. I tell you the city had but one sensation that dayToward Trinity Church wended every line; toward the bead of Wall street marched multitndinonsly the people of New York, Brooklyn and Jersey City. Tbe coffin, draped with the American dag, rested in front of the chancel. I was then a young reporter, and, being unable to find a position whence I could see and where I could hear, I joined the white robed choristers in the chancel and stood, unfortunately, at the end of the front row, confronting the entire congregation, tremendous in its aggregate, so that I dare not take a note of what was doae, but was compelled to rest entirely upon my memory, aided, possibly, by a somewhat lively Imagination, for the story told by the New York Times on the following morning. One of the saddest and most significant sights I ever saw waa deyeloped in the broad aisle of Trinity Church when I was a mere lad. The captain of the steam ship Sierra Nevada, J. D. Wilson by name.
had died of a fever in Panama, and his remains were brought home in a box about three feet square. I never understood why they were not transfered to a cotan-shaped tasket. and I never shall forget the impression produced upon me as I sat in the dimly lighted auditorium, listening to the perfunctory solemnities of the occasion, and wondering precisely how the bones of that gooi fellow were arranged in the contracted box. I was there at the opening sermon of Morgtn Dix and at the obsequies of his father. Major General Dix. I have heard the most maKoiiicent organ performances there. I haveieen some of the most absurd little parson- In tieir canonicals, with wisdom written all over their countenances enera vor to unmet the mysteries of divinity atd remove the sehi from the books of revelation. What da you think they are doing wiibHtdajT It has stood ao long confronting tbe elements that much of its ex terior is weather beaten and scarred by exposure to the stonnaaf winter and the blutsof enramer. Tbl doesn't suit the newly rieh who now worship there. They want tbe church to have a fresh, bright, new face, ao, Iblees your hearts, they are cleaBingittherrjoliaMllg It, and they are making It look like nawl It deevn't do now-a-ajt to have anything that's oM. Visitors lU waii Vj Hiw York rtrtlf art
occaaioniy ctitw I ran against one
yesterday night It was in the Fifth Avenne Theatre, where the ever jolly Billy Florence and theevsr graceful Airs. Florence were disporting m what I consider the best American play ever written, "The Mighty Dollar." 1 met him in a private box, John Stetson's own, and he (the visitor) actually had the innocence and the ingenuousness to say to me, "I would like to take In Barnum's manam to-morrow afternoon." Hal bless my battons. Barnum's museum wi burned oat years and yean and years ago, and the marble edifice which serves as a monument to tbe elder Bennett loni? years ago took its place, fronting, not the lower end of City Uall Park, known and eeen of all men for a hundred years, but what stands in its place, the magnificent granite pile known as the Federal building.in which are all the United States Courts and the vast machinery of the PoetoflSce as well. Even the City Uall Park, you see. is no longer as it was. I remember distinctly, within the past twenty years, to j. when that whole scope, beautifully grassed and sodded, ' th fountains here and there bubbling nod rpsrkling in the summer sun, was inclosed by iron posts, connected one with the other by iron chains, long since passed away, for cow there is no fence of any sort or kind. and. instead of a single edifice, the City Uall sitting like a diamond upon the circumference of a ring, there are not only the Postomce and the City Uali, but what is assuredly called still Tweed's "new county court house," and a number of smaller buildings devoted to other branches of the city's economy. CMOS jrp. we reach, significant place, and yet how changed. My mother, torn in John street, when residences there lined its entire length, recalls the time distinctly when her uncle, one of the ten governors of the almshouse and the various public institutions of the city, lived in State street,cear Castle Garden, and had a country place on the precise spot where Union Square now stands. In our time, of course, it has always been a square. I remember when it was lighted by little oil lamps, then, when, with vast and unpopular extravagance, gas supplanted them, and now, when it is made bright and brilliant as the noonday sun by huge electric volumes of brilliancy, sent out by an apparatus, hoisted hundreds of feet, far up toward tbe clouds. Oli, what tremendous meetings have been held in tbat place' The greatest, perhaps, was the tremendous demonstration of 18G0, presided over by John A. Dix, when, from every portion of this country, multitudes came as delegates to the great Union meeting. Oh, what a sight! Is there any picture ao exquisite, is there any canvas so magnificent, can any panorama be devued so Buperb in its length and breadth, as this tremendous gathering, the outpouring of human nature, assembled with a common Impulse, with a with a common determination of indorsing resolutions, absolute, clean cut and fixed in purpose? I trow not. Within the memory of my youngest reader Union 8quare was belted about by sumptuous residences. Now I know of none remaining The Springier Institute was for many years the leading female seminary of tbe city, standing on the western boundary of Union Square. Tiffany, I.think, was the first to make a break, then followed Barony, Bietano Bros., and a variety of trades ot various description, while on the esstern side theatrical agents, restaurants of German, French, Spanish and Italian siyle, and busine&s firms' of various nature Lave taken possession. The extreme northern boundary is lined with magnificent warehouse, and the soutnern is occupied entirely by tbe Union Square Theatre, with tbe Morton House and their various dependencies. Pass we in search of landmarks until we come to the Ffth Avenne hotel. What is it that looks so strange? What is it that's gone? WHY, THE OLD CLOCK.! B!ess its buttons, where ia tbe old clack? Tt;j betel V733 opened ia KxS. It wm believed tobe so far "up in town" that nobody woald ever go to it, and was regarded aa the fuprenie&t folly that Mr. Amos 1U Eoo, father of Mr. John En o and Amoa It. Kno, an old schoolfellow and friend of mine.could possibly commit. Mr. Eno was and is a real estate operator, and when he built that hotel he builded better than he knew, for to day it is doing more business than any of its rivals, and is exactly in tbe centre of every social, financial, business andipolitical interret of Manhattan Island. Bat never mind about that, the clock's the thing with which to catch the attention of the reader. The clock stood at the ton of a loity iron pillar. Just run your mind back twenty-eix years, a trifle over that, bat between twenty-six and twenty seven years. It is a generation, under ordinary circumstances, it is half a dozen generations under existing circumstances. In 1M8 James Buchanan was President, and tece&eion was beginning to enfold its purposes. Abraham Lincoln had not even been nominated, and nobody ouppoed he would be. Ninety-nine men in everv hnnirfd would have aid if asked. "Who will be the nominee of the Republican party in tbe rext campaign?" William H. Seward of New Ycrk; but, as we well remember, the ßht between Be ward and Chase and Cameron waseo bitter that compromise became an absolute essential, and Lincoln's name fortunately was settled upon. The 1'rince of Wales, with all his glittering euile, occupied rooms in the Filth Avenue Hctpl, and their Anglican eyes rested curiously upon the faca ot this old clock, cow not only pulled to down, but pulled to pieces. Think for a moment of the scenes that have transpird beneath the shadows of that elock. When I was a little boy, visiting in Boston, 1 remember diatitcily a procession, the graDd marshal of which was a handsome feliow. on a magnificent horse, which he strode with ease and the bearing of cue accustomed to the saddle, Frank Howe. He came to New York and during tbe war was the agent of Massachusetts in this cty, pa-sibly of all the New England states. 1 den t kDow as to that. Every incomiag regiment was met at the Fcrty-eecond street depot by Frank Howe, the same fellow I saw in boyhood at the head of the Boston procession, and he either rode or walked, as the case might be, from the Forty-second street depot down Fifth avenue to Brcadway, and down Broadway to the Battery, with some escorting body of troops on the way to the front. One and all of these soldiers, raw in experience, absolutelyunaware of what they were going to, parsed by that clock in broad daylight or at night, and it is no unreasonable fancy to assume that every mother's Btn looked to see what time of day it was. The war went on. Many and many a regiment was called from tbe ster-le tArrus cf New England and the water- ah bed roat along its rock-bound every oc r' which passed through that squa'j a d by that clock. Thank God so man y oi tbai returned. Who can ever forget ti e lUiiTersai uprising that saluted the announcement that was was ended and tbat ?eace reigned once more from Maine to exas and from Mas?achusetta to California? Home again marched the gallant bands, decimated, some of them, all of them wounded and injured, but all thank God, victorioa, and past that uplifted, clean faced clock walked, to majestic music of sonorous bands, tbe eoldiers of the Republic, homeward bound. As I etoed there this morning, looking at the hole, I recalled, as in the vision of ao instant, the great men I bad seen there since that clock was raised. Great some of them because tbev were born to it, great some because they attained to it, great others because it was thrust upon them. Lincoln, Chase, Se ward Grant finerman, Thomas, Garfield, Hayes, Blaine, Clevelai d, their numerous satellite, tüelr praisers and defenders and defamen, nae and all ct these, aa also the present exec itle, Arthur, and bis cabinet and many Barnes noted upon the lyric and dramatic boards of the world, have been guests in the hotel, and bare pressed the nose of curiosity againt tbe pane of observation, in order tbat tbev might take not of time told by the faltbfal pointers of that old-time clock. One Of the most notable occasions confronted by tbat rotund chronometer was the recaption avert by the Arcadian Clab to Charlotte irtman, Aj a gtatua Ca&hmaa rtoul pre
eminent; as a business manager be waj no alouch. Her genius, hand ia hand 7,-f 0ld age, was becoming decrepid, but her cess instinct was alert to a degree, and wi?S" Jarrett t Palmer suggested to her a farewei'
perfonnacce in B.xth'a Theatre now grroe, by the wcy, long after this old clock was new demolishtd.torn down, and replace Jby other buildings prior to the following of the clock itself ehe jumped to it with the alacrity of a four-year-old colt in the presence of a gentle hurdle. The distinguished law vers. judges and journalists in New York city, tide by side with the Arcadi&a Club, assem bled upon the stage at the close of the performance to tender tbe go&d old Udy and tbe magnificent actress a few words of omplimpnt and adulation, f he might gracefully subside into he leiiracy of ptivate lifa. There ! re, bald beaded and gray-bearded, W iu;l evening dress, illumined by the tierce glare of the footlighK A 8 the curtain rose, the old lady faced the spokesman Jndge Brady, if I remember cor rectly and took it all in as a sponge does the mcsiture, but when he concluded. instead of announcing ai hid been pre arranged, her retiracy from public life, shesimply thanked the magnificent audience, individual heads ot which had paid as high as $25 for a seat to witneee her exit, saying that she was so much cheered arid gratified by tms unexpected popular demonstration that, instead of retiring, she would come egain before the public, as a reader, during a subsequent season, l hat broke tbe boya all cp. However. JoeTooker had hired abont 200 fellows in the street to carry torches, the horses were taken awav from Cushman'a coach, and, escorted by two or three embers of the Arcadian Club in the carrirge, and these hired terch bearers, attended by thousands of curiosity hunters, she was conveyed slowly and with great empressmen t to the private entrance, on Twenty-third street of the Fifth Avenue Hotel. I chanced to be by her eide, and went with her up stairs through tbe drawing-rooms and out upon tbe marble balcony in front ot tbe hotel. A great calcium light was turned full npon her. and, while tbe 7th regiment band harmoniously serenaded her, she stood like a statue; then, recognizing the gracious compliment which swelled from the throats of individuals until it attained the proportions of a vast harmontus choral, she bowed with characteristic dignity and waved her handkerchief, amid the wild tumult of enthusiastic demonstration. A brief sketch of the reviews, military and civic, of the processions ot various sorts and kinds that have passed up and down that square would make a volume of vast interest and general entertainment. Not alone the fierce tumult of tbe election of lSt0, cor the great popular excitement of war declared, nor the tremendous tribulations of the riots of 1863, cor the wild wall attended the assassination of Lincoln, cor tbe great social upheaval of 186s, cor the multitudinous maledictions attending the authors of black Friday,nor the sub sequent scenes of excitement and interest of the last campaign, would be texts for long discourse, but a continuity of social, personal, financial, national, universal starts, progresses, growths, effiere9cences, failures, might also be appropriately bound in one common volume, the interest of which would be quite paralleled by ite instructivecess and its entertainment. The old landmarks of New York are really fast passing away. The buildings we knew but five or ten years ago, dating back to the Dutch times, to the early settler times, to the deys when the As tors peddled in the streets, ai.d the Yanderbilts sold liquor over the counters, and the rich real estate owners of today were babies in homes, the heads of which brought vegetables and milk to town; when Chamber street was away up town, and the Park Theatre in Theatre alley was the centre af Tashion; when the bright and Pheasant promenade of the city was the Battery, and when tbe ample fields beyond Chatham street were known as the Bowery those buildings are gone, and I doubt very much if any ambitious photographer had sers?e enough to keep a counterfeit presentment of any one of them, which is the order of the day, for nothing is as it was. The rumble of the old-time stage-long since pave way to the jfggerty joggle of the street cars, as they in turn are gradually dyina: away, drowned ont by the tremendous clatter of the Elevated road. CKNTKAL PARK, twenty years ago a bog, a more, a wood, today is the regular resort of tbe hundred thousand people, and at times thrice that number have assembled in and about its drives, its lawns, its malls, not by reason ot any extraneous attraction, but because the weather was suberb, tbe heat excessive, and a desire to get a glimpse at least of rub in urb, prompted man, woman or child to seek its leaf-shaded placidities. With the exception of the thirty odd miles of park driveway in Chicago. I know of nothing on this continent that approximates to the interest and health giving ii tpiration of our Central Park. The value in statuary alone must be very great, and seine of the bronzes are peculiarly good werk. As is always the rase with these public selections, there are orue groteaqueriea, some abortions, some idiotic nominations; but a majority of the figures, which are in terestiDg historically, are weil worth seeing. Tbat landmark can not be paid to be passing away cr changing for the worse; on the contrary, its vast pecuniary value increases year by year. As an investment, it is worth a hundred times yes, a thousand times what it cost originally, and now tbat it is literally inclosed by street and avenues, heavily fnnpsd with Buperb edifices ia brick and marble and granite, its money valuation wouM be diflicult to accurately state. In every way the park of to-day is a great improvement on our park ot twenty years ago, wLea it was little better than an inclosed purffvee road, rough, uneven and of no attraction whatever, Bave to the eye of the landscape gardener, who 9aw in it great possibilities for future utilization. A Clean Sweep. New York Sua. Our Independent contemporarie s ate very much concerned lest there Bhould be a clean sweep when the Democrats come into power. They feel pretty sure that Mr. Cievaland is a civil service reformer who wi'l not be in fayor of the general removal of Federal officers. They fear, however, that he may be forced by the Bourbons to make very many removals. It sefms probable tbat he will not have to be forced to this course, but that he will find it necessary to take it in the proper discharge of his duty. It is firmly believed, and on ample evidence, by the Democratic Earty that monstrous abuses and corraption ave prevailed in the public rtervice under llepublican rule. On this point it Is sufficient to qvote from Mr. Bayard, a witness whom tbe Independents will hardly impeach: -'Mr. Cleveland is confronted with an encrmons task, the like of which has hardly a T arallel in history. The Democratic party is the legatee of the most monstrous system of mismanagement. Every department of tbe public service is mismanaged, or condo cted in such a way as it should not be." Now. if these charges are true, a new lot ot public servants is needed in "every de partment of the public service. Of course an absolute clean sweep can not be. Some officers are properly retained for tbe con venience of public busiaesB. in spite ot a change in administration. But if Mr. Bayard is right, a great majori ty of the Federal officeholders should removed Our Independent friend!, to do them jartice, agree that all corrupt or incompeb-nt officeholders should be removed, and of these there must be a good many, oz l.e publican maladministration could not have been so general aa tbe Democrats believe it to be. Tüera ia another consideration also urged by the Independents, which ne ceasitates the removal even of officeholders who are not found to be corrupt or incompetent: "The great army of clerks should be as lected because oi their capacity and retained to lonz m they rtm&in capable md avoid cure participation in party warfare.

That is the way in which our esteemed cod temporary, the lSew Haven Register, puts it. and tbat is wbat tbe Independents generally blieve. But are they not aware that most Republican Federal office-holders have teen active Republican partisans? And if a majority of those office-holders have participated in party warfare, why, according to the Independents' own tests, shouldn't there be a pretty clean sweep? Is it expectea tnat the Democrats shall retain in office men who have given their personal ecorts or their money, or both, to keep the Democrats out of lower? 'When the corrupt and incapable and the active partisann among the Federal office holders have been removed, not very many toousanda of Federal omce holders will be left in office. Even if the number of the in capable and tbe corrupt were as small as the most faithful llepublicaa can suppose, the number of the active partisans is bo large tbat a removal of ail of them would be a pretty clean sweep. This is what the Inde pendents want without knowing it. To quote once more from the Register: "When a new party comes into power it is to be expected that certain changes in office will be made, but it is not expected that a clean sweep from too to bottom and from side to Bide will be made, unless the necessity of it clearly exists." But does not the necessity exist? Every glorious act of a great life starts forward an eloquent fact. Dr. Ball's Couch tiyrup is tbe g'iorious act of a life's study, and it is a positive fact that it stands wituout a rivaL Catarrh Cared. A clergyman, after suffering a number of years from that loathsome disease, Catarrh, after trying every known remedy without success, at last found a prescription which completely cured and saved him from death. Any sufferer from this dreadful disease sending a self-addressed stamped envelope to Dr. J. A. Lawrence, 199 Dean street, Brooklyn, N.

Xhe Brmarkable Retemblaw ReT' J Y. Armstrong-, of Atlant.' a' Wheeling (W.Va.) Special. The announcement from Atlauv .J' that Rev. J. Y. Armstrong, rector of SL " thew'a Episcopal Church of this city fron. 1874 to 1ST3, but now rector of St. .Phillip Episcopal Church, Atlanta, had again been publicly declared to be J. Wilkej Booth, the aKessin cf Lincoln, hsa created frreat excitement here, not a few being found to-day who declared tbey always believed there was some great mystery coacected with the life of the reverend gentleman; while, on the contrary, tbe assertion that be is Booth la pronouneed ridiculous by those wno aie most familiar with K?v. Armatrorg'a history. Those who have teen Booth say there is no doubt of a remarkable resemblance between the two men, Mr. Arms.trcng'8 face, figure, tone of voice ar.d,Jaboe all, his peculiar walk, beiog identical with the personal characteristics or tee a-s&atin, while a pronounced dramatic style and rather stagey delivery give substantial c round to the suspicion that he was ence on the boards in tragic peits. It was a frequent comment with those who first listened to his sermons that he was a born Richard III. Sio oae meeting him on the street would ever suspect hisa to be a minister of tbe gospel, his boisterous manner and loud voice and his habitual and lavish use of tobacco, with a common rumor of intemperance, being auything but ministerial. It is thought strange that although Dr. Armafrong steadily maintains be is not Booth, he txniformly refuses to allow an elimination of his neck, where Booth had a scar. Jease's Sauces. Milwaukee Scniicell Two or three years ago Mrs. Alexander Mitchell of this city brought from Florida a young negro named Jesse Griffin as a house servant At the time be could neither read nor write.

While switching on the old Winterset track, near the coal banks, the cars jumped the track, ran up the fence, forced it down, proceeded on through a grove of fruit trees, broke sixteen of them down, ran over a coal house, and finally struck a brick dwelling-house. The rear car broke down the twelve-inch wall forced its way through the bed-rooms, and finally emerged on the opposite side. The walls having been torn out, a portion ot the house fell down, loading the cars with brick and debris. Fortunately, the family escaped without injury. Advice to Mothers.
