O'er the desert waves,and the nameless graves, And their giant shadow cast, And solemnly trace, as on a dial\u2019s face, The decay of time which bids The round ages fly, and the nations die, And all, save the pyramids.Y es, write on the sand, like that fatal hand Which wrote on Belshazzar's wall, And tell unto men, eveu now as then, What doth unto them befall ; And tell uuto men, that threescore and ten This earth of its doom'd ones rids, And scatters their dust as a thing accursed Like the sands round the pyramids.For a man is as nought ; but a thrilling thought Sweeps over my souls the now, Like that breese which breaks on my heated cheeks And fanneth my burning brow ;

Sir,\u2014The attention of the Quebec Curling Club having been called to an article in your issue of Saturday last, respecting the competition for the gold modal which His Excellency the Governor-General so kindly presented to the Curling Clubs of Canada, and especially to the statements referring to this Club, it has been deemed necessary in oar interests to give an official denial to some of the allt-ga lions therein made.Your article states that \u2018\u2018it has not been decided what Clnb has wou the medal,\u201d and that yon \u201cunderstand the question is to be referred to the Canadian branch of the Royal Caledonian Curling Club for floal settlement.\u2019' In answer to this doable statement, I need only give the following, addressed to me on the 10th of March last : \u2018¦Your score highest for tbe Gold Medal.\u201cPlay off for the Silver Medal, as per clrcn-\u201clar.\u201c(Signed,) Ward, A.D.C.*\u2019 This was considered conclusive, and tbe Silver Medal was accordingly played for on very bad ice, on the 21st ult.Since the score for the latter was forwarded no official com munication has been received which intimated what your article has doue, and therefore no small degree of astonishment was created by it.Your statements, however, may be facts although unknown to ns, but we cannot al 5nwi *TTTRrp Mnwji I Rich Farming Lands! nrrriUin\tFor Sale VERT CHEAP by the lOl iiHtUlfll) lOilM Union pacifto Rai,,,oad Company.SEEDS !

Its staff of editors, correspondents, and reporters Han been strengthened by the engagement of some of the ablest men In the profession ; and the editor was resolved to spare neither palus nor money in tte effort to make Tub Tbihumb tte very first newspaper in tte world.It points to the achievements of the past twelve months with pardonable pride.While Tub Tubumb has retained all the excellent features that made it such a favorite in former daya, it has exhibited aaenteipiUe and acuteness in its new.department whlon have been the wonder of all its old menus.Remembering that the chief function of a dally Journal la to glva its readers toe inlleet, the best arranged, toe moat attractive, and tha meet readable history of the occurrences of the time, it has devoted Its best energies to this business, and its success has beea universally recognised and applauded.Toe year has been fruitful of start, in g events, and every incident has found in Tub Tribunb lie prompt* est, most accurate, and most perfectly equipped htstnrtan.A Tbibunb correspondent was the Only civilian who witnessed the surrender of the Virginias, and his pleinrsique description of that transaction, transmitted by telegraph, is tte only account the public Las yet seen of an Incident upon which depended for many weeks the question of peace or war.tub Tribunb published the only toil and exhaustive account by Atlantic teltgr«pb oi the terrlb e Villa du Havre disaster,giving all the InoidenU of tout catastrophe ten days before otter journals received them by ue alow course of tte mails.It distanced all compett ton in Its toriniag story by eable of toe adventures of the Polaris castaways.It àntloi.pa ted every other paper in toe country and even tte Government itself, by Us graphic narrative of Onster\u2019s battles on the Yellow stone.The elaborate ana deeply U terestlng letters of its special oorreependent In the West gare toe only complete account of the Farm an' Movement ever published In an Eastern paper.The reporta ot Thb Tribunb presented tte Imputant proceedings ox the Evangel! cal aillanes in tote city with s faLneas and accuracy everywhere the sobjectof enthusiastic praise.During the panic its dally history 0f Wall Street made it absolutely 1 nuisp».unable to bust new meu ; and its special correspondents afterward described the condition of affairs la the manufacturing districts wlih an ability which no other paper seriously rivaled.These are mere instances of the uniform ¦uooees in tte meet important branch of Jcair-| naUam which has steadily attended 1 srs Tbibunb throughout toe year, and may therefore be felrly taaen as an earnest cf what Tub Tbibunb la likely to do hereafter.Its puij ose in 1874 is to surpass its previous record, con- Paper* add»\u2014< seguralil* to sack mm her of Clubs will te charged too \u2022auto add tlonal to the above rates.gT* Specimen copies of either -*IUon of ThbTkibunb, and circulars giving fa'» setails of the contente of each Extra sheet, seat dree to any address in the United States.VW~ AU remittances at sender's risk, unless by'drafts on New-York, postal order, or In registered letter.\t___ __________ Address,\tTHB TRIBUNE, New-York.January 18, 1874.\"\t__ ' ,\t\u2014 ._______I TsumB\u2014eingie copies, su cenis.pu » mov i gtaQ»iy increasing the efficiency of Us orsam am aU through Mghl Trmns oaer the to *1^*^ An extra copy tor Three New Uu«Tn by tha valuable Tribune Extra aheeto, which have attained such an extraordinary popularity during the past year.They present the fresh fruit of the best intellects of this and other countries, the most remarkable lectures, tbe most valuable scientific and geographical r see arches, at a merely nominal price.In the series of 14 Extras already pub-ttsbed will be found, reprinted for the most part from tbs columns of the dally Teibunx, some of the latest lectures of Agassis, lyndali, and Beecher;
