[Mow Time Was Measured by Greeks and Romans—The Rude Beginnings of the Modern Cleck. How time was measured in ancient Greece and Rome was the subject of a paper, the first of a tories, by Col. F, A. Seely, read before the Anthro- Dologieal Society at the Cosmos Club Tuesday even- Ang. Col, Seely, in his introductory remarks, refer- Ted to the present as “the era of seconds,” when the complex affairs of man required the most, m1- hute division and record of time, a need which had been met by the invention of accurate time. Pieces of modern character, He suggested also that the methods of measuring or keeping time Sorved as indices of the progress of a people in civilization, He referred to the sundial, the Water clock, and the graduated candle as the earlier forms of time-pieces, and traced the origin of the sun-dial, 90 far as fects were known, to the East, to the Babylonians and Chaldeans, Among the lang, he Shoughs the sun-dial dia not come into general use, but a knowledge of it was in of the riésts, This formed one of the mysteries guarded y the priesthood. He thought it plausible to Genclude that the dial, was introduced in Greece iol t first the dial was simply a When it cast a shadow 6 feet long It was time to bathe; when It cast a shadow 12 feet long, it was time for dinner, Mathematics were afterwards applied 80 as to make the dial a somewhat accu- rate ti r, Of DO avail however at night, or on days when thesun was obscured, Moreover, this time-plece was out of doors, and failed in many ways to meet the more require- ments of advancing civilization, THE WATER CLOCK. ‘Then came the water clock, which was at first not a time-keeper, but a time-check, growing out of the need of some instrument to measure the Passage of time for # brief interval, so that the ‘Ume allotted to a blic cer could be accu- rately guaged, Water clock in its rudest form appeared among the Malays. ‘This was 8 cocoanut-shell, with a perforation in it. ‘The shell was placed in a vessel of water, and slowly filled, ‘The time required to flll the shell was the unit of measurement. In India “time was meas- ured on the same principle, but instead of a cocoa nut-shell, a copper vessel with a hole in the bottom was used. In Athens a vessel of water with stopcock at the bottom was employed, and ‘the time required for the water in ‘vessel to Tun out into another was the Dads of measure- ment. Orators were allowed a certain number of Fallons ot water, Casey or, argument Detore tr. 5 called “weeroennen the length of time given them. “tne “dry” cases were the soonest di: of. This simple instra- ment was improved until it became a constant tme-Keeper a8 well as a time check First, the interior of the vessel was graduated so as to Show anes Pale cieeae ae introduced, rith a traveling rod or index, which passed a graduated scale. Means were aiso meer for Keeping up a constant flow of water. Col. Seely stintlarly “traced the development of time- keeping in ancient Rome. The fiat came first from Greece or Grecian colonies, For many years Gials, graduated for the latitude of Athens, were ‘used in Rome, A DIAL AND A HAND. He spoke of the development of the water clock into what was really a clock run. by a weight. This was a clock with a dial and hand. From the float a cord ran over a pulley, and to the other end was attached a weight. The pulley-wheel, or drum, rode upon the arbor that turned the hand on the face of the clock. Thus the weight fur- nished the power, and the water served the pur- of an escapement, measuring out the power, (pe CE of ee divisions of the day welve eqi arts, and suggested that it probable that theeaniy Greeks and Romans and Other people, Without accurate time-pieces, had at the best only a dim conception of the difference in the dengtn of the day and the night in summer and winter, Col. Seely, in his paper, spoke also of the devel- opment of the water wicek centuries ago by the Chinese, In reference to the division of the day, he spoke of a Yankee clock that had been in use in Japan, now on exDibition at the Bureau of Educa- ion, 90 altered that the figures on the dial could be readjusted to suit the ferences in the length of the day in summer and winter, as the day and night were divided into equal parts. ‘4 CHINESE DOCTOR'S EXPEDIENT. Col. Seely’s paper was followed by an interest- ing discussion. Prof. Mason referred to = stmple time-check used by a Chinese physician, It was & chop-stick, Droken so ag to have several angles The doctor set fire to one end and instructed his peneny to take his first dose when the fire reached e first angle, another when it reach the second, and.soon. One member spoke of a rude time: Keeper he had seen among the Zunis. It was a Plate set in the wall of a hut opposite a hole in the other wall. When the sunlight, coming through the hole, fell upon the plate, the Zunis knew it Was time to plant corn, Other rude ways of tell- ing ume were spoken of, +e ‘The Methodist Protestant Conference.

The agitation against the new Irish coercion ‘bill continues to gather force in England. At® meeting of the liberal federation in London, ¥es- terday, the president, sir James Kitson, denounced the policy of the government as brutal, and said that they were trying to reduce the Iris to the level of the Hottentot, He moved that the federation protest against the coercion Dill as re- trograde in policy, tyrannical in principle, and vin- ictive indetail. Admiral Mexse roused an uproar by asking whether the crimes bill was not really an anti-coercion measure, aiming to sup- Press the shameful coercion of the National League. He asked which form of ooercion English Uberals should support. | If Eugiish home ralers Were consistent about governing Ireland accord- ing to Irish ideas, they were bound to let the country go, conceding that absolute i which the hationalisis wanted. An attempt was here made to hiss down the speaker, but the chatr- man ruled that the speaker was in order. Contin- Uing, the speaker said that thts pursuit of the ab- Stract principle of nationalism would result 1p the abdication of England’s national responsibilities and cause their country to become weak and in- ating ay ta tees oa Engiand cultivated dissolution and decay. The cer’s concluding words were drowned with noise.

Mr. Jno, Moriey addressed an andience of 6,000 Uberals at Victorta Hall, in South London, last night, He charged the government with Russiap- izing the administration in Ireland, and denounced ‘the crimes bill as a hateful instrument of oppres- sion. ‘the measure, he said, was intended to lay the ‘tenants at the feet of the landlords, who, flushed with triumph, would be spurred on by thelr own needs to harsh exactions. But the liberals Would not desert the Irish people, The time was Wheg Irishmen saw no light on the horizon save What shone across the foods of the great AUanlc. Now they saw a new light nearer home, They no longer looked to the westward alone; they looked to the eastward, too, and tuey saw'a beacon of hope and sympathy trom England. ‘That beacon would never it out. Mr. Morley’s speech aroused uni enthusiasm. At a meeting in Chelsea last, a letter was, Tead from Mr. Gl in which he said: “Our adversaries have avalled themselves of the fact fhat 1 have taken a large share in placing the Irish problem as a question of practical poiltics before the country, to plead that itis a personal affair, that itis not a ‘true conviction, and that the péople are not In genuine sympathy with the Justice of the Irish demand. A little reserveon my part will help them to be sooner undeceived and Ww protit more effecuively by the teaching they are already beginning to recelve—the teaching of events.” ‘Mr. Dillon addressed a meeting at the town hall in Birmingham iast evening. He sald he would rather be twenty times tried at the Old Bailey than by @ packed Jury in Ireland. He condemned the land bill, Which, he said, was worse than the coercion bill, “He déclared that a more monstrous deception had ‘never been attempted than to pre- tend that the land Dill was a remedial measure.
